@Sinistr0, took me a while to sit and write down my thoughts about this EP, but here we are :)
Synthwave/witch mash-up "Lost In Heaven" sounds quite wave-y, actually the title fits pretty good here, as the track has a heavenly and otherworldly vibe (makes me think of a darker, witchy cousin of a more ambient Daan Mol EP). "Sad Days" continues with the melancholic vibe from the previous track, only to be juxtaposed with dry hi-hats that remind me of SALEM when it comes to their arrangement. But the track sound less lo-fi and more layered than the WH OGs, and has its own personality. "Falling" instantly made me think of BLVCK CEILING for some reason, maybe it's the sublime leading synth, or the deep bass in the background, but one way or another, it makes for a great listen. Up next is "Lacrimosa", presonally I think it's the weakest track from the whole EP, sounds a bit too generic and like dozen other tracks posted daily on WH groups, and I think the EP benefits in terms of continuity when I skip it. That cannot be said however about the following dark trap "Red Lights", probably the most hip-hop based composition here, with a touch of EBM minimalism. I just WISH the "cyber" vibe from the first 30 seconds continued throught the rest of the song. The closing track "False God" is a post-industrial witchy head-banger, feels like a wall of distorted, raw noise was faling towards me. Something SKELETONKIDS or CRAVE could also produce. Really great EP, I will try to buy it at some point and show some support, thank you for sharing it.
