Vid – Life Of Dreams EP

Vid – Life Of Dreams EP // Sound Of Vast – SOV016

Our second release of 2019 comes in the shape of the ‘Life Of Dreams’ EP, courtesy of Romanian producer Vid aka Egal 3 who turns in three cuts of his signature hypnotic, stripped-back style.

Vid has grown to become a driving force in the contemporary minimal house scene in recent years both on his hometurf, Romania – one of them most important regions for this sound, and across the globe. Racking up releases on the likes of Pleasure Zone, An|dromeda, Brouqade and of course Sound Of Vast where he returns here for his fourth EP on the imprint.

Title-track ‘Life Of Dreams’ leads, laid out over thirteen minutes with murky atmospheric textures, warbling sub bass tones and eerie voices ebbing and flowing amongst a dynamic arrangement of organic percussion.

‘Povestea Ei’ follows, rhythmically shifting things in broken territory via jazz-tinged off-kilter drums while poetic spoken word vocals, modulating synths and stuttering bass tones further fuel the mind-altering feel.
‘Povestea Mea’ then rounds out the release, this time round embracing a cinematic feel and employing emotive strings, bubbling synths and minimalaistic pops, clicks and whirrs at its core.
