Foglands EP – released 2014
The lead track “Foglands” is an eerie drum work out with a cold ambience, utilising trap style snappy drums that falter and stall combined with an echoey baseline consisting of mystical monk chants, this roils and boils to make an unnerving instrumental piece.
The second track “Struck” is a more upbeat affair with rushy lead synths embedded in a greasy sawtooth bedding accompanied by heavy slow trap beats.
“Yellow” ups the ante again with drum rolls and electro bass combined in sometimes unorthodox ways with some old skool newsreel samples.
“Stumble”, the closer for the EP brings some melancholic chords in to introduce this soft ambient piece with paper thin phased out looping rusty drums. The track evolves with abrupt changes and energetic drums. The ecstatic piano at the end leaves a lasting impression and ends on a very positive feeling.
