Review: With artwork reflecting some classic James Bond-isms, Mia Mendi makes a triumphant return to Watergate Records only months after her debut. Back in remix form, no less - TH;EN, Widerberg, and Moonwalk are employed to take on Mendi's production suite, with the 'melodic techno specialists' collectively injecting some sidewinding dynamics into her originals. TH;EN goes big room on the stutter in a remix of "Distant Present" while Widerberg pulls out massive swathes of acid and huge lunges of bass reworking the title track, with Moonwalk crowning itself as the sundowner epic of this release for sure.
Review: The "Falling Down EP" marks 8Kays' impressive debut on Watergate Records, showcasing the talents of Ukrainian sound-producer and live act Iryna Shvydka. The EP opens with "Falling Down," a collaborative effort with Buenos Aires-based producer and live act Juan Hansen, resulting in a captivating blend of electronic progressive sounds. The EP takes a different turn with the remix by Dutch duo Colyn & Beswerda, who infuse "Falling Down" with a tougher edge while retaining its melodic intricacies while Chris Avantgarde contributes his own rework with his bold and memorable production style. And to send you off on a cloud of musical bliss, the EP finishes with "Lyra," a solo track by 8Kays herself. Think: floaty, dreamy vibes with these cool, cascading arpeggios that'll leave you feeling all happy and relaxed. Perfect way to end the ride!
