Premiere: looking over Deescawa's "Finding Balance EP"

Sculpting textures that defy the imagination, the 19-year-old Moscow producer Deescawa delivers the "Finding Balance EP", a collection of four tracks that subvert the fabric of sound and music. Blending technical precision with emotive ambient landscapes, it challenges us to reflect on the construction of music and the many factors that influence it.

This exploration of meaning in the modern world, along with charting new territory in sound design production, is a driving factor in his welcome return to Rendah.

This EP is the result of prolonged work with myself, mentoring, and the world around me. It's about creative freedom and the ability to do what you want. This mini-album is the complete opposite of 'Hometown,' both in sound and concept: complex and multi-layered storytelling is replaced by bass dance floor-oriented experiments; thoughtful and obsessive concepts are replaced by working without overthinking and doubt. This EP is about growing, finishing, abandoning as it is, and acceptance. It's about letting go./ Deescawa

One of the most challenging aspects of making music is determining when a tune is ready; many producers never feel their work is ever ready for release. Deescawa tackles this with a creative twist, using it as a springboard of inspiration to craft highly detailed productions processed through the urgency of spontaneity.

By forcefully pushing himself in a new direction and taking risks, new pathways to the future have been forged, and only time will tell the fruit that these branches will bear upon the musical landscape.

Today, we unveil "Mode Anneau", a heady tune that meanders between warped ethereal bliss and chaos-backed beats, revealing undiscovered artifacts with each listen.
