Kangding Ray consistently fascinates the scene with his unique style that is bridging the dance floor and abstract electronic composition, talking equally to the mind and the body. His first record for Figure spans exactly that arc, introducing to the label something as much for headphones as it is for the big clubs. The tracks on Azores EP feel as intimate as the artist's work on other long players but are focused clearly on impacting the physical realm. Teeming with ideas, he first lets his modular synths sway and turn loosely before switching it to a more bassy and propulsive approach on the flip. Balancing cinematic strings against stepping rhythms, the EP's closing track is another prime example of this producer's skill to craft something which holds up as an abstract piece of art as much as it does yield a lot of emotional tension.
