Studio 405 is proud to present the first EP release of Malini, Mikhu & Lorik.

The 'Closer to Distance' EP showcases stripped back, minimal house grooves from Swiss producers Malini, Lorik, and Miku.

The title track 'Closer' is first up of the EP and it's a great example of that deep minimalism that is maybe a bit lost in modern productions where producers tend to over-layer percussive bits and loose that importance of 'in-between space' in their tracks. This track displays the ability of the 3 artists to craft some intricate percussive work over a broken beat and some more cerebral pad and synth structures. One for when the sun comes up after a night grooving on a dark dancefloor!

The hypnotic 'Distance' completely builds with a certain intensity that never drops, stimulating the senses and transporting the mind as deep, rhythmic pads drift in and out of play. The guys are going for a sophisticated arrangement, opening space, yet raising the temperature after the break into a groovy, string-laden climax.
