The\u003cbr\u003einfluence of this period, and in particular of Fairshare himself, on the music is clear; both are stepper-esq, leaning\u003cbr\u003eheavily on London’s musical legacy past and present, whilst still pushing a contemporary sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ePraise is essentially a Dub track. The percussion and bass are of a familiar steppers nature, with the synths\u003cbr\u003eevoking a true Big Smoke feeling. Although the melody itself wouldn’t sound out of place in a UK Drill number, the\u003cbr\u003esong overall still touches on Industrial and DIY sonics, being all the stronger for doing so.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eGuidance follows in solid form. Amongst the driving percussion and staunch bassline, droning pads lock in a dense\u003cbr\u003emood whilst sparse choral melodies echo throughout. Think Shaka meets Muslimgauze, but recorded in a\u003cbr\u003eWoolwich Office Block.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eGrotto was originally produced for the group show “The Grotto” held in January 2021 at Ridley Road Project Space.\u003cbr\u003eRestructuring the track from the original stems, Pack presents a new and enchanted “stereo version” for Praise EP.\u003cbr\u003eAngelic atmospheres flow amongst scattered hi-hats as sporadic Freetekno Kicks reverberate across the void.\u003cbr\u003eMost accurately described as “what Curley in a K Hole might have sounded like”. \"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SELN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55924698284376,"sku":null,"price":16.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0259\/9403\/5259\/files\/a327301706110.jpg?v=1760087225","url":"https:\/\/3345.nl\/products\/conrad-pack-praise-ep-12","provider":"3345 Record Store The Hague","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
