A1: When I’m With You
B1: Final Blessing

The first double single from Modulaw’s upcoming project The Songweaver bridges the haunting atmospheres of UK electronic music with the emotional depth of alternative RnB. Deeply atmospheric, these tracks weave together string samples, ghostly vocal fragments, ambient pads, intricate guitar lines and forward thinking sound-design, creating a soundscape that feels intimate yet otherworldly.
Vocal samples weave through the arrangements like fragments of memory—disjointed yet deeply evocative—while the morphing structure shifts between delicate and driving moments, creating a sense of constant evolution. These songs exemplify Modulaw’s ability to blend genres and sonic textures, crafting a soundscape that feels both grounded and otherworldly.
As the first glimpse of The Songweaver, this release sets the stage for an expansive exploration of sound, memory, and transformation.
