Released on June 20, 2025, “Shine On My Soul” is the latest offering from Mr OFFBeat, and it lands like a luminous testament to the power of collaboration, family, and spiritual groove. Bridging soul-jazz, organic house, and gospel, the track is both danceable and deeply moving — a rare combination in today’s electronic landscape.
The production is anchored by warm live instrumentation and a fluid, analog aesthetic. Mr OFFBeat once again joins forces with his father, Javier Garayalde Sr., who contributes expressive sax and brass arrangements that elevate the track’s emotional core. Adding another layer, the UK-based gospel choir The Lux City Music, directed by Josh Bowale, delivers radiant harmonies that resonate with clarity and purpose.
Lyrically, “Shine On My Soul” unfolds as a meditation on renewal and inner strength. Through its poetic spoken word passages and gospel-inflected vocals, the track explores self-discovery without ever losing its rhythmic pulse. It feels as much a spiritual invocation as it does a late-night dancefloor burner.
Stylistically, the release sits comfortably within the organic house sphere, but reaches far beyond. With echoes of spiritual jazz, early gospel house, and a commitment to live performance, Mr OFFBeat continues to define his own sound: lush, honest, and timeless.
In an era of hyper-digital production, “Shine On My Soul” is a refreshing analog gem — sincere, crafted, and glowing with purpose.
