k15: resonance
Francisco Espregueira
Kieron Ifill, also known as K15, has been exploring the and pushing the boundaries of the intersection between jazz and electronic music for the past decade, becoming one of the most accomplished producers that we had the pleasure of follow and evolve with. Released by one of our favorite labels, 2000BLACK, Resonance is his latest offering - comprised by three tracks, the record seamlessly blends jazz, electronic and broken beat music to create a unique sound (that’s always the K15 sound) that's both classic and modern.
Resonance opens with the title-track and a meditative chord arrangement that gets subtly layered with percussion and programmed drums, creating a song of depth and richness. “Within Reach” is the most playful track on the record. An uptempo ride, filled with class and flair and demonstrates K15's evolution of ambition and composition. The EP closes with the militant groove that is “Resistance”. The heavy bass, the wall of synths and the floating shakers create a track pulsing with life.
Heads up: this is a vinyl only release and the previews above are just a (beautiful) taste of the magnificent work done by K15. We intend to start to showcase more and more vinyl only releases, knowing that the user experience of reading and listening to the music at the same time might be reduced. This is although in line with the spirit of what we’ve been doing for more than 8 years - feature the music we really like to hear. Courtesy of 2000BLACK, Resonance is available on vinyl.
