WG 099EP
|
8Kays delivers an inspiring label debut on Watergate Records, as the artistic project of Ukrainian sound-producer and live act Iryna Shvydka reinforces why there's so much excitement surrounding her with the slick Falling Down EP. A collaborative rich EP, 8Kays links with Italian pair Glowal for the punchy "Matemática," that brings plenty of eerie minor key vibes to the dancefloor thanks to the vocal contribution from Brasilian singer Abrão. "Falling Down" sees 8Kays team up with the Buenos Aires-based producer and live act Juan Hansen for a captivating slice of electronic prog lit up by Hansen's memorable vox and delicate strings. One for those special end-of-night moments. Dutch pair Colyn & Beswerda suit up "Falling Down" for a different occasion, adding a tougher backbone, while teasing out all the melodic flourishes to craft a remix that's functional and stunning in equal doses. Man-of-the moment Chris Avantgarde then ramps up the intensity to eleven adding his own re-rub that's everything listeners have come to love about the producer: bold, powerful and memorable. The EP ends with a terrific 8Kays solo cut, the luminescent "Lyra," a dreamy arpeggio-driven gem that closes out the work beautifully.
