Following William Light’s single ‘Lift You Up‘ from late June, Inspected are back today with the release of Echo Map and Azaleh‘s ‘Feather,’ a single accompanied by a second track titled ‘Nightfall.’ Despite being the first (and second) collaboration between these two producers, it comes as no surprise that their work is so cohesive and immersive, and Inspected is a welcome home to both their sounds. Each artist has an extensive catalogue of rich, soul-engulfing tracks that span much much longer than your average radio hit, creating sonic worlds within their songs to scratch more than a basic surface itch. ‘Feather’ and ‘Nightfall’ continue to do just that, meshing lavish melodies and otherworldly textures.

The title track, ‘Feather,’ opens with a graceful piano introduction that slowly builds with atmospheric effects and gentle percussion. Growing with additional layers of bass, the artists have concocted a track that transitions gradually from a focus on melodiousness to a focus on sound design, yet they never cut the natural flow of the piece. Seamlessly crafted and meticulously arranged, ‘Feather’ is as delicate as its name suggests. ‘Nightfall’ follows, beautifully complementing the opener with a more rugged approach as Echo Map and Azaleh put a heavier emphasis on bass. The introduction lures listeners in with its intriguing aura, before changing tones into a more bass house-leaning cut. While the first half of ‘Nightfall’ is mellow yet whimsical, the electro inspiration in the second half further demonstrates the production knack that both artists possess, forging a well-rounded piece from start to finish.

Don’t miss ‘Feather’ below.

RefraQ’s take on ‘Pearl Jigsaw’ plays on the name of the track, taking distinct pieces from the original puzzle but arranging them in a new, refreshing way while also adding his own touch of stuttering frequencies. Little Snake offers a no holds barred approach, as contortion and distortion are the main themes in the shortest remix of the bunch. The Calgarian’s mind-warping remix is devilish and aggressive yet flow seamlessly from start to finish, a testament to his true artistic abilities. Finally, German producer Azaleh caps off the trio of remixes with a cinematic, orchestral take on ‘Pearl Jigsaw’ that is a welcome change of pace.
