A/ SolitudeA perfect storm of influences are on show on the A-side track: “Solitude”. A singular atmospheric voice, echoing a style not unlike Najma Akhtar’s ambient tones, chants along with an immense soundscape that just swallows you up. This is met with a heavy and dynamic hand-drum arrangement that leads you into a lively, yet melancholy, plucked guitar line. At this point the rhythm is joined by a mighty halftime kit and bass, joining the already thunderous hand drum rhythm. Kami-O sculpted a true masterpiece for which we are proud to present to you.
B/ Wander
This time around Kami-O brings through an incredibly tight and melancholic piece of contemporary 2 Step. Approaching the timbres laced into the track with a slight orchestral aesthetic, paired with a clicking, syncopated drum rhythm that’ll cut through and stand out in any mix, and basses that’ll fill any room; Kami-O demonstrates his versatility in composing music across the 140bpm spectrum of genres and styles whilst maintaining his auditory signature in everything he arranges.
