‘Continuation’ is the second release from Mâ on his own imprint Infiniti House. Within the 4 track EP, Mâ delivers an array of dub, ethereal, trance-like melodies that reflect upon the golden years of electronic dance music. The ethos of the EP is to represent a moment in time. Mâ describes it as music that can be reflected back upon years later, allowing the listener to remember some of their favorite moments in their life. With that, the name of the EP, ‘Continuation’, indicates that while we can reflect on memories, time doesn’t stop and there are more memories to be made.
The EP starts off with ‘You Forgot Your Umbrella’, a journey filled with dub techno elements, nostalgic pads and evolving percussion. Transitioning into the second track ‘Coming’, the listener enters an ethereal landscape of what feels like a loop that could go on forever, leaving the listener wanting more. Next is ‘Nonexistent Nostalgia’, featuring a complex melody and gritty percussion that together provide a driving energy while taming the overall tone of the track. Closing the EP is ‘Salt of the Earth’, an underwater, trance-like experience filled with deep bass and evolving pads, with percussion that continues to build on itself from beginning to end.
