The lights of the city quietly ripple on the surface of the night river.
The memory of that moment, just gazing at the light.
Tobba Ranks new track River Lights, 20:46 sketches the quiet flow at the edge of the city and the lingering traces of passing emotions through his beat.
Deep, swaying wood bass and chopped loops repeat,
built on the backbone of Boom Bap yet infused with the air of dub and ambient -
a sound sketch that feels like the night itself has been sealed inside.
Like walking along the riverside,
like recalling a faint piece of the past,
let yourself feel the quiet vibration that lingers in your ears.
