TwoKeys.1 is the first collaborative project of NYC-via-Columbus beatmaker Untldsnd and Chicago jazz pianist Evan Thompson. Cascading from the shadowed corridors of the artists’ minds, here's their debut EP: eight blissed-out, short-form jazz beats showcasing the tactile quality that all good beats should have. Every element of each track is diligently sampled and placed, allowed to play and fill the soundscape, and then cut.
The work of Two Keys is expansive but not overdone. A clear homage to a bygone age of beatmaking, when a good ear and patience were the sole prerequisites. Enjoy it!
