Review:
With tracks on recent EPs for Editorial and a recent collection of edits on Superbreak, Romanian producer Heion drops his debut EP of original material on Matthew Kyle's In The Woods. Across the four tracks contained within, Heion proves himself to be a master of slow burning disco; "Get On" combines ingeniously sequenced synths which segue smoothly into a deliciously low slung bassline, while "Off" takes a sultry vocal and trumpet sample and combines it with some particularly chugging live bass. "Not Knowing" meanwhile takes insistent piano loops and contrasts their minimal tones with an enveloping symphonic synth backdrop. Finally, "Come Here" employs more vocal sumptuousness and combines it with sweeping strings and the most insistent bassline of all his tracks to cap off a fine debut.
