"After making a name for himself by remixing and reworking various tracks, Meszahline (real name: Bram Ruiter) is here offering us his first real EP entitled Several Beings. Its four tracks manage to span a wide pool of styles but under Bram’s watchful eye the whole thing feels consistent and complete.
I’m assuming that he slaved over these four tracks because this EP is almost overflowing with ideas. From the ambient dreampop of the opening track “Now What” (which features haunting guest vocals from Bobbi Dahl) to the dark and gurgling “For Spencer,” this EP feels full. I can’t imagine another track fitting in anywhere without it feeling out of place. It’s a puzzle shrouded in mystery with each piece locking firmly into place with each listen.
I know that I haven’t been featuring much electronic music lately, so I’m happy to say that Several Beings has broken that dry spell. It’s a masterful and brooding release that really is begging to be heard. You pick it up for free from his bandcamp" (Vía: cactusmouth.tumblr.com)
