It’s great to get the imagination pumping. Kairiko thought it would be very interesting to blend an 808 with classical instruments, and I agree! The second half of the track has a strangle calming and meditative quality. Reminds me of some Tru-Thoughts chills in the backyard. I wonder what other stories there are to tell. See for yourself on Instagram.
French-Canadian producer and live act Christophe Dubé, aka CRi, is a dance music star in the making. As I discovered the solace of long runs during the pandemic months, I find this track to be a burner in me and a regular on my headphones. Taking me back to all summer thoughts full of light and promises to keep. You can never go wrong with Anjunadeep too. Find more here. Bummer, I didn’t get my hands on the Cap >> https://www.crimusic.net/ however the Juvenile LP is awaiting in bright colors!

Jessica Roch is a multimedia composer, multi-instrumentalist, and improviser. She mixes wide and varied soundscapes with the grittiness of close-up tones and loves to explore the intricacies of an instrument. Falling somewhere between neo-classical, avant-pop and minimalism, Dictate/Meditate has a truly unique, ethereal sound. It uses traditionally classical instruments – vocalise singing, organ and violin but warps them to create an untraditional sound. A swirl of feelings on sound and audio purity, see more here.
