Artist to watch: Druid Cloak

“I make what the earth tells me,” is what drives this up and coming innovative musician. Inspired by “otherworldly and unexplainable things,” Druid Cloak takes us through a mystical, yet emotional journey through his forward-thinking sounds. Already being respected by some of the most profound international bass scene musicians, Druid Cloak uses soulful R&B beats, precise percussion and organic basslines and blends them into colorful, fluid melodies.

With having his debut EP, The Grove, released by Symbols Recordings, he has already caused a stir across the dancefloor with his futuristic vibes. The Grove EP displays a mixture of different sounds such as post-dubstep and garage, which is predominant in the track titled “Heart of the Wild”– a head-nodding, deep-bassline track featuring dark vocal samples. Switch over to its featured track “Blessing of the Grove” and you’ll find strong house and techno influences — sultry vocal cuts followed by vivid synths.
