Review: Michael Cates – Classified

1k

Michael Cates’ latest single Classified is a masterclass in groove-driven cinematic funk. From the very first notes, the track transports you into the world of high-stakes espionage and action—immediately evoking scenes straight out of The Equalizer or a Mitch Rapp thriller.

What makes Classified stand out is its rich instrumental layering. The saxophone lines cut through with sophistication, the chords provide depth and atmosphere, and the percussion drives the rhythm with undeniable energy. Each element is played with precision and flair, and together they blend seamlessly into a polished, powerful whole.

This is more than just background music—it’s a soundtrack waiting for a scene. The funk-infused energy keeps your head nodding while the cinematic tension makes you feel like you’re on the edge of a mission. Classified proves once again that Michael Cates knows how to craft music that is both stylish and immersive.

A track that sounds just as good in your headphones as it would in a film score—Classified is one you’ll want on repeat.
