Joris Voorn 'Horizon' (Eelke Kleijn Remix) on Spectrum (NL)

Eelke Kleijn's remix of Joris Voorn's 'Horizon' is the version in focus here, a restrained record with an improbable lift at its centre. It is out on Spectrum (NL), where it arrived on 10 July, and Voorn placed it seventh of 12 in his 'Spirit Bird' chart on 19 August.
On the Eelke Kleijn Remix, the drums and the chords weigh the same, so when the filter opens and lets the pads through, the effect is something like letting the light in. Nothing dramatic. There is not much happening across the drums, which gives the record an almost hypnotic pull. The arrangement holds that balance without needing a busier drum figure to carry it forward.
It is also a loud record, but with some give under its peaks. The top end has a bright sheen, while the space around the elements keeps that brightness from overwhelming the mix. Spectrum counts this as its 14th release of 2026, with 18 so far this year. The chart appearance brings Kleijn's version into view more than a month after release.
