Song Review/ Folk : Cornelius Eady Trio’s ‘Quicksand’

Cornelius Eady Trio usher in the age of contemporary blues with their latest release, ‘Quicksand’. The track is composed of minimal instrumentals. Slow and fluid bass grooves, oasis of dramatic synths, dotting percussions, and a bare vocal landscape. The atmosphere of the track is made to contrast the overwhelming feeling of the theme. 

It is the direct opposite with its nonchalant and raw feel. The song is like an aroma that fills the room. Soft and subtle but with a way of immersing you in the experience. With the vocals, the artist tries to create a dark humor, devoid of melodrama but full of insinuated gradients. That lowkey compositional style with a pseudo sincere tone, explorative spaces, and the vastness of the silence in between the layers. All of it presents the theme with such unique lenses.

The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
