"Dead Silk II" is the second of two 3-track singles from Canadian producer, songwriter and vocalist Rhi working in collaboration with producer and innovative engineer Telemachus. A project built from mutual respect and a natural joy of working together, Rhi and Telemachus turn the dials up a couple of notches and invite you to behold Dead Silk.
With a sound that is as sensual and playful as it is dark and foreboding, Rhi and Telemachus constructed a unique sound drifting in the ether between light and dark on "Dead Silk I". "Telemachus has been an inspiration to me as a producer, so working with him has been such a treat", Rhi explains. "With each track we did, I felt driven to challenge myself and try new things and I feel like I'm now a stronger and more versatile artist because of it".
On "Dead Silk II", Rhi's intoxicating vocals blur with Telemachus' production to uncover the deeper side of the Dead Silk universe. Lead single and focus track "Half A Lover" draws the listener in with a hypnotic combination of looping beats and playful guitars, warping the concept of a traditional love song. As Rhi's vocals swirl with the repetition of wanting more and questioning the validity and wholeness of a relationship, the sparse instrumentation builds, adding to the intensity of the track. "Who wants just half a lover?", Telemachus adds, speaking of the track's core question.
