AAVA – Deoro EP

The one and only AAVA goes straight for the jugular with this EP, allowing his shadowy tendencies and intricate programming to shine in these four tracks. The galloping bass of “Huching” hits the nail on the head and is accompanied by mysterious electronics and subtle chords. Earth-moving effects and otherworldly washes hold the vibe down and allow rolling synths to take control and push the momentum even further. Things get more groovy on “Lumpa”, with pumping pads in full force and persistent percussion creating maximum impact. Sharp claps lead the way, while the crackling rhythm section and juicy bassline kick things up one more notch. On the “Make Time” the shadowy ride is dominated by a rise-and-fall bass which leaves plenty of room for the cavernous effects to roll out and set the apocalyptic tone. Looping vocals and tiny snippets come together and unfold throughout the track, adding the fuel of madness to the proverbial fire. Moving on to “Paolini”, the snapping rhythm section takes control and holds the weighty pads and eerie strings which still nod to the dark, while a swinging bassline kicks things up a notch. As things progress, pitched-down vocals and effects subtly lead to a frantic synth riff which blends hypnotically into the claustrophobic midnight air.
