AB Artist in Residence presents brand new EP
After debut-EP āChaptersā (ā14) and successor āAmalgamationā (ā15, with Avondlicht), the second solo-EP of Belgian producer Oaktree (Adriaan de Roover) is standing ready in the wings. Not just the next phase in Oaktreeās musical quest, but the current culmination of the young beat-baker from Antwerpās development.
āDustā is a yellowed collage of an album that slowly comes to life again. Also an album that blows by like a thick mist, at a self-sought tempo, whereby ā as listener ā hastening ahead is absolutely pointless. On the eventual horizon, there are certainly no bite-sized songs appearing between the densely packed ethereal fuzz, but rather moody soundscapes and minimalistic sound-carpets shrouded in a fragile beauty.Ā
