Kala Hari
​Into A New Dawn E.P.
Uxmal Records


Three vast tracks make up this immense E.P., opening with spaced out abstractions of new-age technology and distant birdsong. A majestically wavering harmonious synthesiser releases the tension before some crisply reverberated nature sounds begin to take the lead. The notion of peace rides aloft the billowing waves of gentle rhythm. Lounging peaks sit quietly while softly creeping above the break line, forming texture and contour, culminating in the addition of melody.


Similar in terms to the Kalahari Desert, in Africa, the sound is long and as it stretches into haze obscured horizons, rolling dunes of new direction bring effect driven nudges into slow tangents of sound. Electronic with nature taking a central role in the use of sample and artistic exploration makes a pretty fusion, balancing the music on a finely tuned equilibrium which leans in a three hundred and sixty degree shallow tilt as the progression evolves.


The E.P. works well for the time it takes, the triple dose of synthetic ambience and abstraction makes up nearly half an hour. During this time, we're greeted with a multitude of digitally crafted mixtures of rhythm and tune which flow well from one to another. It is an artistic selection, Into A New Dawn can be really listened to and appreciated bar by bar. The depth and richness to the compositions create light but wholesome tones which cover all the listening places.
