Despite the fact that I have got to know a lot of producers and artists during these years and their respective creative processes, sometimes, when I bump into some incredibly powerful pieces of art, I wonder how humans can create such beautiful things. Since I pretty much have zero creative skills (musically speaking) within me, at certain levels music really seems to me a magical matter that must be created in some mystical places or alternative dimension, and not in a physical studio. Hanz, ford. and sonn have always been among these wizard’s circle, and seeing them all together on a single project immediately foreshadowed an epiphany.
“Collaborations like this are what makes the indie electronic music scene such a positive place. When artists have the ability to express themselves through working with other artists, miracles like this happen.” Sometimes I think that I could compose entire write ups with the great comments I read online. This is exactly one of the cases where it wouldn’t be possible to find better words to explain the intrinsic value of this collaborative EP. Every single piece of the ‘Good Company’ is a little golden nuggets itself: the drum patterns in ‘Home’ and ‘Endsong,’ the chords in ‘U Stay,’ all details which don’t pass unnoticed and that I’d gladly put on loop for minutes and minutes. The track order is, in addition, the icing on the cake of the EP. The vibes rise and fall in a impeccable way thanks to a classy turnover of instrumental and vocal beats.
Big up to the Foreign Family Collective for giving sonn, Hanz and ford., the possibility to create this heavenly EP! You can enjoy ‘Good Company’ on SoundCloud below or on your favourite platform here
