Description
2023, 12″ EP, Shall Not Fade. Blue marbled vinyl.
A regular to the Shall Not Fade output, Columbian producer Felipe Gordon returns for a collaborative EP with Belgian artist, Krewcial, for a deep dive into their shared sonic world. An ode to their shared love of cycling, this EP traverses many textures and terrains, ascending into moments of brightness and descending into deep atmospheres. The first track, ‘1972’, kicks off with an outer casing of flecked percussion, before the introduction of a driving, hill-climbing bass line. Track number two, ‘Dying’, features rousing choir vocals, bringing a gospel-sensibility to the firmly funk-tied bass line. On the B-side, ‘Answer’ has a careening melody with hints of nostalgia, side-stepping between satisfyingly clean kick drums and brusque snares. The flip also features a remix by Session Victim – a beautifully floaty reimagining of the more grounded original. A highly multifaceted release and a strong addition to Shall No Fade’s already gleaming catalogue. – Juno
