New Music: Carmada - Realise (EP)
Carmada's fiery debut EP is finally out.
Carmada's debut 4-track EP Realise is full of delicate builds and monstrous break-downs of warbling bass that all point to one thing, its a banger. So don't worry, there aren't any accoustic instruments as far as I could tell but there is a saxophone. And for those out the loop about Carmada, Yahtzel and LDRU make up the duo and formed earlier this year after Splendour In The Grass at which they pounded out a searing-hot B2B. This DJ set saw them join forces and drop Maybe ahead of this EP.
Realise,is the opener and it slowly burns to life as Noah Slee's vocals cut in before the pounding drums and skittering percussions kick in to give it a futuristic tribal feel. And then slides in Maybe a track that has become synonymous with Carmada. The opening keys set the spine tingling before the real fire starts, which if you're familiar with Carmada you will have come to love. Carmalude keys the blaze down a notch with a sumptous saxophone and down-tempo mood. And On Fire is the final track that cools the inferno that has emerged with the dulcet voice of Maribelle.
Carmada are also swinging over to the west coast for one of the premier events of the 2015, Castaway which has sold out, and to see the full lineup in all its glory click HERE.
