Ronan - Leaves of Life
BUY LINK: https://xkalay.com/album/leaves-of-life
Label: X-Kalay (https://soundcloud.com/x-kalay)
https://soundcloud.com/ronan-music
Release date: 01/09/2023

Ronan lands with renewed focus and a new EP on nascent X-Kalay sub-label, Another Place. Musing on personal crossroads, ‘Leaves of Life’ is a highly evocative contemplation on the tides of life. It’s the culmination of a personal arc having sat with the material for six years, further refining the lush, introspective sound that’s characterised his output to date.

The outcome feels similarly unhurried; a pristine, genre-spanning exploration rendered with meticulous attention to detail. Soul-bearing stuff interspersed with words of reassurance through quietly spoken vocals.

The opener strives for utopia. Carried away on a warm current, ‘Song of Surrender’ initiates with a gorgeous unfurling of life-affirming trance that begs repeat immersion. Comparatively direct, ‘Cure for Toxicity’ comes on a breaks-driven flex before a fleeting switch-up into 2-step territory.

Supple groove and jazz modalities fuel airily introspective D&B as we shift focus to title track ‘Leaves of Life’. Then, finally, Ronan closes things out with a ritual purification of sorts. Deploying more breaks but bordering on new age, ‘Sacral Dub’ exudes a soothing, massaging quality with dubby tendencies in full effect.

“Saffron Sol” blends warm Spanish guitar with deep progressive grooves and organic house textures, creating a sun-kissed journey shaped for evening drives and calm nights. Soft plucked strings drift over smooth basslines, evolving pads, and gentle percussion, giving the track a Balearic, cinematic glow. As a follow-up to “Saffron Nights,” this release continues Chill Fader’s warm, melodic world-inspired sound — relaxed, emotional, and modern.

Tracklist: 
01. Dopamine Antagonist 
02. Cascading Lights 
03. Maori Octopus 
04. Separate Paths 

A year after his first release on the label, German deepsmith Sven Weisemann is back with a sophomore effort entitled Separate Paths. Down for his moody outings on labels like Mojuba and Telrae, this new four track affair continues to mark out the man behind it as a master of atmosphere. 

'Dopamine Antagonist' is way below the surface, with soft drums encouraging you to get loose as radiant pads smear and stretch in all directions. The groove seems to float in mid air and subtle melodies drift by like half remembered thoughts. 'Cascading Lights' is another warmed and dubbed out affair, but this time with a gentle electro lilt that is filled with the promise of an early morning walk on a spring day. Exquisite synth work makes it an emotional affair, but then 'Maori Octopus' drops back down into a reserved and insular dub techno groove that is delicately detailed with little rays of light, watery ripples and tiny traces of electricity. Head music that also makes your body move, the EP closes with 'Separate Paths', a nearly beatless, slow motion affair that suspends you in an underwater cave and showcases Sven's knack for intricate and cinematic sound design. It may only be four tracks long, but this EP truly takes you on a journey somewhere far away from this world.
