Sens F I could listen to this over and over and over. Just the right amount of riddim and melancholy that chokes me up and makes me so happy at the same time and from a fellow Belgian! This is a superbomb release. I love how there ae sneaky details in every track that surprise and enthrall. Was that enough superlatives? For me in my personal top 10 of this years' discoveries if not #1. Favorite track: Merak Part I.

the thicket a wonderfully mangled hymn. Favorite track: Merak Part I.

Markus (Hårek) Leese with her most focused release so far imo. Laser sharp bass with syncopated tribal rhythms carrying hypnotic vocal chops and stretches. Physical and heady at the same time. Just gotta love it! Favorite track: Roep.

about

" I present to you: Drift.
This project has been a true artistic challenge, surpassing everything I've accomplished so far. I constantly questioned every detail, starting from scratch numerous times, leading to a delay in the release by several months. I delved into every aspect deeply, and although there are always possibilities for further creativity, I decided to stop at this point.

My aim was to return to the essence of Nomaa by blending more deconstructed productions with melodies and basslines, thus uniting the styles of my last two EPs with Yuku. The quirky and unexpected rhythms remain at the heart of my tracks, accompanied by new influences that sneak in here and there. Each track possesses a personal structure and tells a captivating story that never ceases to take you on a journey without stagnation.

This EP also provided me with a wonderful opportunity to collaborate with three artists I hold in high regard, both personally and artistically: Capiuz, Le Motel, and Ravl. Our values, tastes, and working methods perfectly harmonized, bringing to me lightness and balance to a project that was inherently introspective.

If there's one word that describes Drift perfectly, it's maturity. This EP represents my final breath of this year.
I've decided to take a break from solo production and focus on future duo projects. I've poured my heart and soul into this endeavor, and I hope you feel the emotions I've infused, just as I have."
