Island Near the Clouds - Influence EP out now on Retronym.

RTN016 - Island Near the Clouds - Influence EP

Image

Moscow artist Island Near the Clouds drops his Retronym debut in the form of Influence EP, delivering an excellent showcase of choppy beatcraft, swirling soundscapes and well nuanced voices and other sample work which gradually and seamlessly pull in and out of the distance.

INtC also pays direct homage to a few of his inspirators. Hills West's Skydreamer is placed into an echo chamber and blended with jilted Xhale beats, whilst Aphex Twin's understated classic Stone in Focus is given some patient treatment with steady percussion and subtle effects.

Influence EP ends on a beautiful note with Trying To Remember, the rotary synths and distant activity provide the capability to put you in a headphase. Prepare to be influenced.

01. Kuopio
02. Try To Find Me
03. Hills West's Skydreamer vs. Xhale (INtC Influenced Mix)
04. Chrome Yellow
05. North Sky
06. Aphex Twin's Stone In Focus (INtC Influenced Edit)
07. Influence
08. Trying To Remember
