Alisky - Traces (ft. IOLITE)

Cool is as cool does, and that's definitely what the debut from Finnish artist Alisky is. "Traces" featuring vocals from Denver's IOLITE is seemingly a conflation of genres and sounds, but in an act of clever craftsmanship Alisky has offered up an aggregate of awesomeness. There's stunning simplicity and voluminous vibes which oppose the wickedly warped wall of sounds in the choruses. That said the quality of "Traces" lies in the space and captivating colour of each sound. The piano and snap led opening slides seamlessly into the groovy bass line which then explodes in a resplendent rainbow rife with raindrops, psychedelic plucks and chromatic vocal chops. "Traces" is a dazzling display of production prowess and lush lyricism, especially in the the line "Call me a gold digger, cause I found treasure in you."
