Gwapes.EP

Fourteen minutes of hyper-swung beat vignettes. Dusty soul samples and heavy tape saturation create a hazy, nocturnal world that feels both intimate and distant.

It's like a soul record that got left in a dusty basement and then chopped up by a genius who forgot how to use a metronome.

A hazy, nostalgic solitude that feels like wandering through a city at 3 AM.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The way the drums on 'Sohrd' feel like they are constantly about to trip over themselves but never lose the groove.

The transition into the sprawling four-minute centerpiece 'CityOfKnx' where the atmosphere suddenly expands into a wider urban landscape.

The ghostly, pitched-down vocal loop on 'imNotrue' that feels like a half-remembered conversation from years ago.
