“The Summoning” lives true to its name. With a combination of the eerie unknown plus crave-worthy breakbeats, it feels as if you’re being summoned by the music and you can’t help but fall into its clutches. The only collab on the EP, “Watch” arrives next with all eyes willingly on it. Right out the gate, Vandull catches your attention with his grimy flow. With a more tame background production, it allows you to truly fall into the lyrics and follow along with Vandull’s fervid words.
Switching up the pace, “Just Want U Close” comes in next on the EP. Ternion Sound shows off some of their garage influence mixed in with the lyrics that name the title on this one. It will give you the courage to grab the person you want close to you and dance with them in sexy harmony.
