I initially wrote this EP in response to my feelings about climate change and habitat loss. I was feeling a little bit overwhelmed and channeled my energy into writing. As I kept writing, as usually tends to happen, the songs end up taking on lives of their own. There are seven songs now when there were only supposed to be four, and they cover a mixture of emotions and genres. Making music that makes me (and hopefully others) feel something is always the main priority. Although I had a theme in the back of my mind while I was working, I tried not to be too confined to any one idea.

 

This EP was intended to take the listener on a journey. It’s hard to pin down genre-wise. There are a lot of styles and moods mixed in. It’s definitely electronic music at its core though, and I like that there is so much variety. As an artist, I don’t necessarily feel that I have to fall into a particular box. Ultimately, I’m going to make songs that I resonate with. I think if you do that, then others will resonate with it too. I hope you enjoy them! –44 Ardent

The post 44 Ardent Casts A Veil Of Peace Over Earth With His ‘intothedeep’ EP appeared first on FUXWITHIT.

The premise behind the track is a topical one. 44 Ardent shares, “[It’s] sort of a reflection on the bleakness of our changing climate and how it feels like we aren’t really doing that much about it.” And just like the earth’s impending temporal doom, the producer had his own set of dillemas while making the track. He continues, “This song has been remade about four times and started with just the vocal and piano that comes in at around one-minute. The biggest challenge for this song to work was getting the two concurrent basslines in the chorus to work together without clashing too much. I tried just going with one bassline but two is way more fun.”

However, the result was a silky smooth sound that engulfs your whole body in rhythm, urging you to move along to the narrative 44 Ardent is building. The pleading vocal chops and unpredictable breaks give depth to the track’s lighthearted four-on-the-floor beat. Similar to others in the outsider house genre, ’95overflow’ rejects house music’s more formulaic approach to a cadence, giving space for you to get lost in 44 Ardent’s contrastingly calmative yet frantic flow.

44 Ardent’s ’95overflow’ will be available everywhere tomorrow. Get the first listen below and pre-save the song here via Mammal Sounds.
