Embrace
Black Diamonds Records is excited to announce this new dub-influenced, downtempo EP from the Maltese producer Lar3n, called “Embrace”. Lar3n creates an intimate and atmospheric mood through an infusion of eclectic styles. His use of deep sub bass, organic percussion and eastern instruments, such as sitar, tablas, and the Chinese Hulusi, Lar3n brings the listener on a meditative and uplifting journey. “Morning Drift” Morning Drift was inspired by classical Chinese and Indian music which I have been studying for the last 6 months. Written using a minor pentatonic scale, the combination of a Sitar paired with a Santur, Tablas and a Chinese Hulusi has allowed me to create a melancholic yet uplifting sound that captures the collective spiritual synergy of the listener. The track's intention is to help the listener enjoy an intimate yet peaceful moment during a time where uncertainty is running rampant. “Embrace” The inspiration for Embrace budded during the first few days of lockdown, during a field recording session on my way to the studio. The church bells were echoing in the distance while the trains departing Ostkreuz had created a brief but powerful moment of tranquillity. It was this moment that helped me realise that in order to get through, one needs to embrace what the moment gives you to use your creativity and generate a new start.
