Russian producer Stendahl has appeared on various Silk Music divisions this past year, including a brilliant collaboration with internationally acclaimed artist Shingo Nakamura ("Tribute"). On Stendahl's first appearance on Silk Sofa, we're also pleased to welcome back Italian producer and singer Richard J Aarden. Richard previously appeared on the label with his "Meet Me In The Blue" EP in 2012. Together, Stendahl and Richard J Aarden have teamed up to deliver the blissful composition, "Towers".
The song begins with an array of enjoyable percussion elements, and the well-written breakbeat soon takes over the mix. Subtle guitar riffs are hinted in the background, while numerous additional synths start to emerge. Richard's delightful vocals are introduced in the break, and soothing pad layers provide extra texture on top. Later, a gorgeous flute melody takes over, which plays unmistakably well with the already mesmerizing soundscape.
Far-out exotica from this aptly named group—the kind of music George Jetson might play while unwinding with a martini. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 13, 2022
