A DIY project with worldwide scope, Slow Magic is universal and inclusive. Itās cosmic electronic music culled from the ether, yet crafted with human hands. Itās joyous, escapist, multi-disciplinary art that mixes transcendent performance with the nostalgic intimacy of two teenagers staying up too late on the phone.
After the release of 2012ās beloved and critically-acclaimed Triangle, Slow Magic became an international movement after touring with artists like Gold Panda and XXYYXX. Crowds found a masked man in their midst, bathed in fantastic light, with electronic triggers and a drum. The future-primitive combination infused the projectās electronic compositions with new life.
How To Run Away, Slow Magicās debut with Downtown Records, reflects this growth, oozing both otherworldly beauty and a mastery of production. Lead single āGirlsā is deconstructionist house with an organic pulse and collaged, handcrafted samples. āHold Stillā sculpts elastic organs and jazz piano into an emotionally-pummeling finale, while the melancholy āLet U Goā merges watery dub with spectral piano and āCloserā plays like a ā90s R&B fever dream.
