zakè by zakè

The debut self-titled release by zakè unfolds like a slow-moving cascade—quiet, delicate, and gracefully drifting from one movement to the next. These understated arrangements weave together evocative drone work that shifts from a faint abyss to luminous, unrestrained abandon. Lo-fi textures ripple across the surface with a gentle warmth, while sinewy mid-tonal synths sway between idle afternoon reveries and hazy daydreams. Subtly distorted lows, punctuated by transitional swells, propel the music forward, creating a sense of weightless motion. The album breathes with a natural cadence, its final moments dissolving into a quiet, lingering reverie—like a dream slipping just beyond reach.
