Keeping up with the Reighnbeau and BK Beats collaboration of forward thinking productions, we give you a listen to their brand new Sleep EP that takes us through the dream world cycles of rapid eye moment conjured sounds, vibes, visions, and more. The two have introduced us to their creative fusions in recent years, and today present some of their finest made sounds to date.

“Pizza Supper” is filled with enough enthusiasm and joy as one might exhibit while indulging in a freshly delivered cheese, sauce & dough disc. The title track “Sleep” bounces with a mash-up of samples and vocal edits that run up along harp pieces and big dominating synths that bring big well springs of bass thundering upward to the surface in a sub-atomic scale. The sound gets glamorous on the expression flashing and dashing haze of “That Look”, to the big ceremonial synth-snazz of “Vault”, that ends on a big collection of percussion assortments and deep dish bass on “Haunt” that opens up trap doors to the infinite underground chutes to that drop you through abysses with depths and dimensions of scale unknown to many.

We wanted to make something soothing that would represent a time and place for us, while expressing our individual aesthetics. Throughout a year of combining our worlds of influence; meshing synths and voices with the warmth of live instruments like dulcimer and harpsichord, this project became very special and personal to us. We really hope you enjoy it.
