-


A completely partaking EP with creative digital instructions, Domax X josafat EP excels in its meshing of trickling guitars, moody synth-bass, and dynamic rhythmic enhances. Melody and environment are each constant strengths all through. The discharge is collaboration between Domax and josafat. The previous is an digital venture led by guitarist and producer Max O’Donnell (The Streets, Kathy Sledge) and Andy Kremer (Incognito). josafat is the alias of Sicilian producer and mixer Alessandro La Barbera (Sans Soucis, Davide Shorty).

Recorded over two days at Andy Kremer’s former London studio area, the EP attracts from the 2 initiatives’ numerous inspirations — from Domax’s love for Aphex Twin and Squarepusher, to josafat’s admiration for Flying Lotus, Bibio, and Tweebs. Whereas these influences are evident, the EP’s outcome stirs in its personal creativity and manufacturing, embracing a large tonal vary throughout its six tracks.

“D – 0201A” opens the album in riveting type, aptly displaying the discharge’s knack for compelling tonal selection. Twinkling, concise keys exude a wintry glow as whirring percussive dexterity and luxurious synth-bass throbs assemble cohesively. The sporadic rhythmic depth and temporary moments of spacey introspection pair for a climactic structural swell. “Bar Italia” follows with a charming electro-funk attraction, melding arpeggiated guitar emotions alongside the regular bass pulses. “Maintain tight” is one other standout, notably as twangy guitars transfer seamlessly into the extra bolstered enthrallment on the 01:20 mark. It is a unbelievable total EP from Domax X josafat.

“Bar Italia” can also be featured within the genre-based, best-of Spotify compilation Rising Digital.
