Fresh out of Switzerland, newcomer Delakeyz offers his first collection of tracks in the form of the Inner Peace EP—a deftly executed seven tracks demonstrating a mature understanding of garage-leaning house. The songs are full of jazzy chords, soulful vocal snips, and a modest straddling of the line between chill and danceable. They have enough bounce to play out but also manage to have the restraint of a Sunday headphone session. “If You Want Me To” is a good example of what the EP has in store, beginning with a modest and playful mesh of melancholy chords and pitched vocals over a light shuffle before kicking into an upbeat UK house groove. Lead single “How You Love,” which was recently featured on Eton Messy, is also a strong contender for best track echoing ‘how our love should be’ over an airy house beat and and muted sub bass. Make sure to get wise to this now and grab the EP on Delakeyz’s Bandcamp for an easy $4.
