The 153rd release on Suffused Music welcomes Evelynka & Daniel Merlino to the label for their debut EP. US based artist Evelynka has appeared once in the past with a contribution to the label's popular 'Initializing' Series whereas Argentina born but now US based artist Daniel Merlino is making his debut. Together the pair have crafted two exquisite productions which make up the duo's 'Haze' EP.
The EP's opener 'Prophecy' finds the duo exploring a progressive techno hybrid bound with strong percussive elements. Beginning with an ominous mood the tough groove comes together with methodical precision as razor sharp stabs and clattering drums steal the air. An acid like arp develops the storyboard further eventually initiating the main break. Dominated with dark tones the track's second act proves dramatic with a smooth build and rush of beats and drums which bring on a stellar third act conclusion.
The companion and also title piece 'Haze' concludes the EP with a more laid back yet equally exciting approach. Backed by a lazy groove and luminous tones it sets a gorgeous late night vibe early. Funky bass stabs, ethereal vocals and a smooth atmospheric storyboard carry the piece through a gorgeous first act before a near two minute break takes you further into dreamland. Cinematic and solemn it sets up an understated drop perfectly before a smooth third act brings you home. Two gorgeous cuts from Evelynka & Daniel which make for an excellent debut EP on Suffused Music. Don't miss it.
