Cheltenham based duo BAAST just dropped their latest effort in the form of single Lacuna, enlisting JPDL as a featured artist on the release. The pair build a delicately minimal sound utilising ominous and hypnotising synth work peppered with sparse rhythms to create a trance-inducing sound.
On Lacuna, the subtlety of the instrumentation and arrangement allows the contrasting blend of soulful vocals with spoken word performance a stronger prominence in the sound and raises the platform for their uncompromising lyrical content tackling politicised themes of identity. The more gentle introduction and progression of the track extends an inviting gesture for the listener to lean in, making the resolute crescendo all the more hard hitting and captivating.
