Check out Brooklynite Ang Low and his latest, the Life Goes Down EP. The EP includes 4-tracks, Can’t Describe Her, which unfolds like dark and sultry rose petals, dew heavy with the trappings of a heavy R&B influence. The EP title-track Life Goes Down sashays sweetly within the bell of your ear, this is the gospel of love at it’s finest, a declaration proclaiming devotion and a requited loveship forevermore. Then there is the tender as butterfly wings, Win Back Your Love, and the battle is on, to win back love…
The final reveal, Voodoo Woman is a frenetic shadow chant like a fiery shot over the bow of would be lovers the world over. Yet, to no avail for what is love without chaos and vice versa. At any rate you’ve be warned. All in all Ang Low fuses hormone infused lushness with atmospheric electronics with tinges of R&B and Soul and it is all tied up neatly with amazing vocals.
Ang Low’s debut the Life Goes Down EP drops courtesy of Luv Luv Luv Records on March 31st, 2014. Peace. Continue reading “ang low | life goes down ep”

It will get the vinyl treatment, alongside an instrumental version, an alternate version and the only guest remix by Jon Hopkins, who will also support Moderat at their second Berlin show at the Columbiahalle on February 27, 2014.
“Last Time” is now available for pre-order at Monkeytown Records. Peace. Continue reading “moderat // last time = alternate version”
