Summary

Eli & Fur is one of the most celebrated underground female duo with quality releases ranging from melodic techno to progressive and tech house too. Follow The Dark - Part I EP contains excellent tracks that DJs and listeners will adore and adapt in their listening habits. Follow The Dark is deep melodic driving tech house beauty with subliminal playful synthy layers upon the bouncy techy moody groove. The vocals and lyrics seems to contemplate well and add the needed canvas to interpret it from within along with the cinematic tones to add mystery and tension. It's huge club anthem that will meets its audience on the dancefloor for sure. Where I Find My Mind is deep relaxing smooth balearic sensual house beauty that will ease the pain, heal the scars and elevate us to another higher level. Talk To Me continuous on the same breaks balearic electronic floating and flowing direction focusing on the very strong emotional heart breaking vocals. It's the type of track that you press play after clubbing in your car and you feel transcended to another place and space. Last but not least Temptation adopts the tribal tough basslines, chunky grooves, piano chords distorted rave touches and cinematic strings while on top the vocals tell another very interesting story that many can identify with for sure. Overall this EP maybe is not for clubs but is just a wonderful showcase of the depth and range that this duo can deliver and expand to other audiences as well who search for great electronica focused sounds for home, car or jogging listening. #PureGold Love IT
