Kiriks sound is very personal. Delicate yet sophisticated, he deploys an intricate web of emotions in a multilayered space. Memory Remains EP is the perfect example of this complexity.
On the A-side "Not return velum" there’s a peculiar balance between sound and silence, a balance representative of Kirik’s ideas towards musical arrangements. Soft vocals appear under noble pads and groovy broken ancient percussions with majestic kicks. Everything is meticulously intertwined by sacred reverbs.
"Special day" is a stroke of light on a cloudy day. Melancholic, yet romantic. A contemplative combination of warm melodies and groovy minimal drums.
On the B-side, "In sadness" takes us into a gloomy atmosphere, but slowly drifts us into a new dimension created by a interstellar light texture, with a soothing voice reminiscent of a dream. In the end, it lifts itself out of the sadness when we least expect it.
All of us have someone who flew away. This EP was dedicated to Kirik's grandfather, someone he deeply loved that passed way from our world to a better one. In the end "Memory remains" was written for all those who remember our beloved relatives, and friend looking at us from the stars. Thank you Kirik! Thanks to all of you for the attention.
