DFRNT Flow Ep

AMA013 sees itself graced by the Latvian-based, Edinburgh originating experimentalist, DFRNT. Birthed Alex Cowles, DFRNT gives three originals, aided by a club friendly mix of the aside belter, "Flow," from Bournemouth duo Zoo Look. Aside and title track, "Flow" (featuring Polish-born Fault Lines) sets the pace for the EP rather intensely, with it's chugging sub bass and reverberating, air-pipe melody. The track seems to continuously build on top of itself, with wompy bass stabs interjecting themselves as it begins to breathe. Zoo Look wrap up the original nicely, with a 4/4 centered, club-ready version fitted for an early night warm up. What intensity found on the aside can be washed over with "Herman's House," a slow-moving, after hours tune tinged with oriental gongs and vocal bits. Following is "Clouds Collide," a dreamy number that seamlessly soundtracks your journey through nostalgic bliss. It's a tune that floats seamlessly along, with it's whirling pads and sub thumps, fit for those "starring out of an airplane" epiphanies.
