Motive Records welcomes Sydney-based producers C-ZENS and HALFZIP for their first collaborative release, the 'Fascination' EP. A blend of old-school influences and contemporary house grooves, the two-track EP captures the energy of their European travels and their shared passion for rhythm-driven, feel-good music.


C-ZENS has been steadily carving out a name for himself, with releases on La Vie D'Artiste Music, Motive Records, and Random Soul Records. His recent 'Everything' EP has been gaining traction, with 90k plays on Spotify, reinforcing his place as one of Sydney’s rising producers. HALFZIP, meanwhile, has been making waves both in the studio and behind the decks. As part of One Hit Agency, he brings an infectious energy to dance floors, blending afro-inspired percussion with driving, percussive house grooves. His ability to channel deep, hypnotic rhythms has made him a sought-after name across Australia’s club circuit.


The 'Fascination' EP is a testament to their synergy, bringing together their distinctive sounds into a cohesive, high-energy project.



The title track, 'Fascination', is a vibrant house record that merges zapping stabs and deep-driving basslines with a groove that playfully intertwines with soulful vocals and a rich saxophone melody. Uplifting synth leads and layered percussive textures give the track a warm yet energetic feel, making it a versatile addition to any set—whether as a warm-up groover or a peak-time anthem.


The second track, 'Cascais', leans into classic house elements, featuring old-school guitar riffs and vintage organ chords that immediately strike a nostalgic chord. A punchy, groove-heavy bassline builds momentum, driving the track forward with an infectious rhythm. It's a track designed to get feet moving, blending traditional influences with modern production techniques.


With 'Fascination,' C-ZENS and HALFZIP have delivered an EP that showcases their ability to create timeless, dancefloor-ready music. As they continue to grow as artists, this release marks the beginning of what could be an exciting series of collaborations.
