EP Review: Isolate – Richie Ashwin
It’s been so looooong since RICHIE ASHWIN appeared on NEW LEASE MUSIC, that I began to wonder whether he disappeared of the face of the Earth! Anyways I’m very glad to have him back and his latest EP, Isolate.
Unlike his 2013 self-titled EP, which comprises ecochic fusions of RnB, dubstep and hip-hop, the British songster adopted a more simple, whiter-than-snow soundscapes, where the smooth atmospheric drive reverbs throughout each production, working in perfect harmony with the heavenly sweet-overtones. A must-have collection for chilling out – and getting busy between the sheets!
Start your weekend on a chilled vibe and check out the EP
