EP Review
There are many elements to SINK’s EP ‘AND‘ that I truly adore, but it’s their ability to create immersive and dynamic soundscapes that really captures my imagination.
The opening single of the EP is ‘and,’ a powerful and raw track that combines captivating synth elements with glitch-like rhythms and a mesmerising melodic synth line. This unique composition creates an expansive soundscape, immersing listeners in a distinct dimension that stretches far and wide. The dynamic and progressive nature of the song is further elevated by a captivating climax, brimming with energy that leaves a lasting impact.
This single is featured within the captivating short film ‘Generation’ directed by Riccardo Fusetti and winner at Runway AI Film Festival 2023 San Francisco. We highly recommend you watch the short video below.
“It’s a high contrast record where I wanted to explore a brief journey-like narrative, through generation and mutation of recurring materials.” – Nico
As we journey through the EP, the sonic dimension expands and evolves, introducing new and unique sounds. In ‘BIG FUCKING LIZARDS‘ the powerful composition gradually builds, featuring scattered vocals for the first time. The clever use of fading synth lines and distortion effects adds a robotic and slightly ominous undertone to the track, further immersing listeners in its captivating atmosphere.
I am thoroughly impressed by SINK’s mastery in crafting dynamic electronica. Their remarkable ability to produce and seamlessly blend multiple elements makes this EP a truly fascinating experience. It beautifully showcases the artistry of sound design, melodic synth lines, and glitch-like effects, highlighting the immense creativity of the artist.
“‘AND’ is a journey through emotional experience.” – Nico
