With an impressive discography that spans some of the planet’s most in-demand imprints, including This Never Happened, Einmusika and ZeroThree, Dutch producer Huminal debuts on Purified Records with his most requested body of work to-date, his two-track Lucid EP.
Crafting a majestic soundscape, the title track blends melodic, soaring synths with elements of trance and deep house to achieve a radiant, hybrid composition. In Flow, Huminal devises a dreamy arrangement, weaving undulating synth patterns, rhythmic percussion, and delicate keys. Exploring two powerful states of mind: Lucid embodies the sensation of sudden clarity—the moment when everything snaps into focus, and you see the world with sharpness and purpose. Flow is a tribute to life’s natural rhythms, capturing the feeling of being in perfect sync. It’s a soundtrack for those moments when you’re fully immersed in the present, moving with confidence and joy.
Speaking about the release, Huminal mentioned:
“Excited to release the Lucid EP with Purified! Both tracks, Lucid and Flow, have been well received during my festival sets and when Nora En Pure supported them. I’ve never had so many ID requests leading up to a release, and I couldn’t be happier to release these on Purified.” — Huminal

The Lucid EP artwork hosts a photograph of corals, captured by Daniel Nicholson. Corals are essential marine invertebrates that form the backbone of coral reefs, supporting biodiversity by offering habitat and protection to marine species. They rely on a symbiotic relationship with photosynthetic algae called zooxanthellae, which provide the energy necessary for coral growth and calcification. However, in Australia, the Crown of Thorns Starfish (Acanthaster planci) is causing severe damage to coral reefs by preying on the coral polyps, leading to widespread coral decline. The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (@gbrmarinepark) is actively addressing this threat through science-based strategies, such as targeted starfish culling and coral restoration initiatives, to preserve reef health and resilience.
