Kumo – Numbers EP
Kumo mashes up the maths for this wide-armed serving of D&B that covers right across the spectrum. ‘Numbers’ is all about the dreamy, cosmic side of the game. Think Toyko Prose but if he came up the unforgiving north east UK and not lovely sunny Australia. Deeper into the EP we glide to find more gold… ‘Voices’ is a rumbling slab of dark funk, all haunted vocal textures and rampant, funky elements while ‘Future With You’ sees Kumo linking with TomInTheChamber for a beautiful vocal-led lighter-raising moment. Finally ‘Broken Trust’ brings the EP to a startling, futuristic halt thanks to its high voltage textures and sci-fi sheen. Forget the numbers, this beats all odds.
