Tread Together EP Out 14/06/21

C O N T X T is a project of Falmouth Based artist George Townsend. His productions are situated on the left side of electronic dance music,  blurring the lines between Rave and Ambient. Twisting genres from Downtempo to Breakbeat, Jungle & future garage. His intricate and dynamic tracks take you on a journey, touching both dark and bright corners of one’s mind.  His earlier works were heavily inspired by downtempo beats by the likes of sample based artists Bonobo and Four tet. After numerous live performances his work moved towards dance music centred around a higher tempo which is where he started to forge his sound. 

After multiple digital self-released EPs and appearances on eel.comp1 & 
men an tol, C O N T X T delivers his first EP on eel. Organic grooves that range from dark, hypnotic breaks to piercing broken-beat, combined with celestial ambient passages and rhythmic vocal samples. “Tread Together” EP symbolises the light at the end of the very dark tunnel we have all been inside of the past year.

Influenced by // Bonobo // Four Tet // Aphex Twin // Jamie XX // Fixate // Burial
