KOM 344EP
|
Dutch duo Weval follow their acclaimed 2014 Kompakt debut, the Easier EP (KOM 318EP), with another record of incredibly catchy arrangements infused with rarefied pop magic, featuring two glistening cuts that marry serious beat-science with heartfelt lyrics and soaring melodies. On "It'll Be Just Fine," Harm Coolen and Merijn Scholte Albers interweave powerful synth hooks with lyrics that unfold over intricate rhythmic patterns. "Grow Up" slows down the tempo and takes a slightly more direct approach to percussion, adorning its steady throb with immersive vocals and existentialist melodies -- again hitting the duo's sweet spot between melancholy and hope.
