PREMIERE: Ephemeral - Dream Phases [Leisure Records]

Today’s premiere is the title track from “Dream Phases”, Davis Smith’s forthcoming EP on Chicago-based Leisure Records. Smith’s discography ranges from deep house via their DJ Heaven alias, to ambient and downtempo as Sorceress, and their next release marks their deep delve into electro, impressively channeling old school Detroit emotional energy throughout all four tracks, under their new Ephemeral alias. Dream Phases opens with a Drexciyan pad that coils symbiotically with euphoric keys throughout the track, taking us on a five minute daze inducing excursion. The track serves as the perfect opener to the rest of the EP, which rises in energy with “Forever Memory” and “Full Moon”, before “Azure” serves as the perfect melancholic closer to this beautiful EP. We look forward to hearing Smith’s next sonic adventure with their stunning range of sounds and what they explore next. The “Dream Phases” EP comes out on Leisure Records on April 14th, 2023 Write up by https://soundcloud.com/sabro96 https://soundcloud.com/leisurerecords https://www.instagram.com/leisurerecords/ www.itsdelayed.com www.instagram.com/_____delayed/ www.facebook.com/itsdelayed
