Manila Killa has released a seven-track debut EP titled 1993, and each track is a distinctive part which makes for an intriguing whole. While the thematic of the EP is undoubtedly “feel-good” music, the compilation takes twists and turns through a diverse variety of genres ranging from progressive house to electro to commercial crossover-type releases. The artist writes on his Twitter that the EP is a year in the making, and it certainly displays this pre-meditation as a result of the impressive selection of tracks.
“Wake Up Call” featuring Mansionair showcases another side of Manila Killa’s generation abilities. Contrasting to his usual progressive house sound, the track retains faint drum & bass elements with a mellow and flowing line which create a chilled-out track with a bit of a kick.
“Run Away” enlists electro house synths that create a retro sound and transports listeners into an earlier era in the beginning of the track. The song takes a twist, jumping to a with repetitive vocal cuts which build back into the electro chorus.
“Skin” featuring outsideOUTSIDE takes a bass background and a bouncing chime melody creating an interesting juxtaposition between heavy sonic minutes and lighter ones, leaving the ears wanting for more.
1993 is out now via Moving Castle.
