Moreover, he ignores all rules and tempos and explores across a wide range of subtle in-between styles. Thus, he shows this perfectly in this ep.

Thrife Life EP

This new record brings together his most diverse musical influences of recent years and explores brand new sonic territory by overcoming existing genre boundaries. It was produced in a small secluded fishermen’s village in Greece and experiments with a new aesthetic in terms of vocals and various genre references.

First up is ‘New Forgiveness’ with its tightly woven layers of gurgling bass and loopy percussion. Ghoulish voices are offset by super sweet female tones and suspensory chords that keep you floating above the dance floor. ‘Secrets’ picks up the pace with rubbery and smooth drums and bass. The cherry on top is the angelic vocals all working you into a trance.

Then the superb ‘Collect The Sun’ has a dubby and driving undercurrent with future synth lines. Furthermore, the song posseses richly atmospheric pads making for a cinematic trip. ‘Insomnia’ is an eerie and alluring blend of deep, urgent drums and bass. In addition, it has pitched up vocals that bring an ethereal and otherworldly edge. 

These are four fresh tracks that have a personality all of their own, here is the Thrife Life EP
