‘Libertas’ is the next release of 8Kays’ imprint Darkness & Light, founded last year, to showcase the broadest spectrum of 8Kays artistry laid down on sounds. Having released quality records via ATLANT, Bedrock and Eleatics Records, 8Kays stands for the integrity of her sound which can also be distinguished from other productions you might hear. ‘Libertas’ means ‘Liberty’ in Latin. With the ongoing war in Ukraine, this title message has enough to say about Ukraine’s brave defenders and people who are standing against full-scale war aggression from Russia.
The title ‘Libertas’ track leads the listener through the effective melodic patterns construction 8Kays is known for. The driving and pulsating sounds of the track’s extension are strikingly graced with the arrhythmic bass/electrified infusions alongside catchy melodic breakdown melodies.’Aurora Borealis’ is more thoughtful, less peak-time, though compelling with its’ nature and general sound. The colours of the artwork are symbolizing the desire for freedom and sovereignty set down in Ukraine’s history. Feel free to play this loud. Part of the income from this release will be donated towards actual Ukraine needs.
You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Libertas’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
