About the EP:
Quibus released an extremely diverse debut EP. While exposing a wide diversity of genre’s, feel invited to dream away on it’s consistent, characterizing, dreamy sound. The electronic based EP is heavily influenced by experimenting with acoustic and electric instruments. Spacy gitarmelodies, analog synths, mysterious violin echo’s, trumpetsolo's, deep basslines, and minimal, alienating vocals. Mysterious and melancholic. A journey that puts a spell on you as much as it makes you move.
The EP introduces with the dreamy downtempo/soundscapy “Groundlove” including some enchanting guitar soundscapes and rugged breaks. The single and proud name-bearer of the EP is “Save Some”, a dark melancholic 4x4 track, enchanted by the spell of GOSTO’s vocals. “Breathe” is an intimate downtempo/triphop based track consisting of a dreamy soundscape fundament on one hand, and a funky drumgroove assisted by a steady, trippy bassline on the other hand. “Can’t Let Go” is a house-influenced track that finishes the EP with it’s dark, raw, pulverizing, grinding guitarsounds and analog synths.
