A song that is going to make you relive and enjoy vintage electronic music, is ‘Concorde’ by Purwien & Kowa. The track feels nostalgic, slightly absurd, yet clearly passionate and deeply unapologetic about the genre that they are inhabiting. There is humor and fun, and beneath that lies genuine craftsmanship and affection for analog-era electronic music culture.
Purwien & Kowa are a duo who have had a long journey in the music industry, and their work reflects their passion and talent. ‘Concorde’ opens with analog synthesizer textures that immediately establishes a mechanical but strangely emotional foundation. The vocals are restrained and slightly detached, maintaining a cool composure. The production is beautifully intricate. The synths are layered, a bright melody over more a more darker and brooding bassline, giving the track depth and a cinematic quality. The arrangement is also designed in a way which makes it feel you could dance to this track.
It is the kind of track you’ll keep coming back to, because hearing it once is not enough. You can listen to ‘Concorde’ by Purwien & Kowa, on popular platforms like Spotify.
