Today’s featured local music is “Shadow Arts” by Torbjørn and Gold•ish. Mystical, edgy and out of this world sounds accompany heavy banging beats throughout the EP. The title track Shadow Arts opens with a soundscape of ghostly vocals, then transitions into beautiful, leaning chords building up to a hard hitting drop. The track really finds its groove in the second half as the varied sounds coalesce into a mesmerizing beat. Hypnotic, the second track, ramps up the tempo and energy with buzz-saw sirens evoking a a trap sound. Elevated closes out the EP with the dark drops we’ve come to love and expect from Gold•ish. With Torbjørn’s high-octane take on hip hop beats, and Gold•ish’ mix of ethereal soundscapes and gangster undertones, the Shadow Arts EP brings out the best of both producers and is a quintessential example of the West Coast bass sound.

Hear the EP live TONIGHT at the High Dive for the Shadow Arts EP release party where both Torbjørn and Gold•ish will be playing!

May 4th I’m releasing a collaborative EP with my good friend Gold•ish. Shadow Arts captures a high-energy, otherworldly, dark and edgy side of dance/bass music beats. -Torbjørn
