Colure
RY X and Frank Wiedemann reunite as Howling to present Colure, the sophomore full-length record from their joint musical enterprise.
RY X, solo alternative artist and member of The Acid, and Frank, one half of me, bring fans a bigger, sharper follow-up to their debut, Sacred Ground. On Colure, the Berlin-based Wiedemann and Los Angeles-based RY X conjure transcendent creations out of their contrasting musical backgrounds and environments. The album is assuredly dualistic: electronic and acoustic sounds sit comfortably side-by-side, and big melodic hooks are laced into hypnotic club productions.
On Colure they wanted to pick up where they'd left off with their last record and distill the core ingredients to improve on it. "We wanted people to know, 'This is a Howling track,'" Wiedemann says.
From the introspective, bass-driven 'Bind', to the delicate piano in 'The Water' (the duo's spin on the track of the same title from RY X's 2019 solo album, Unfurl), and the steady-built euphoria of 'Phases' (previously supported by XLR8R and Resident Advisor upon its 2017 single release), the minutely-realised songwriting and production across each track are what tie these records together to create a stunning body of work.
