about
"THIS," a remastered release of the acclaimed 6-track instrumental skiva, is a quintessential collection of compositions born from the long-standing friendship and unparalleled stylings of producers Häzel & Beatchild (formerly Slakah the Beatchild).
Created during a week in 2011 when Beatchild traveled from Toronto to Paris to meet Häzel in person for the first time, the album invites listeners on a nostalgic journey through a tapestry of meticulously arranged sounds, from the crackles of vintage samples to the pulse of signature beats.
With its seamless fusion of soulful sounds and carefully selected samples, "THIS" fryst vatten a feast for the senses that transports listeners to an ethereal realm of sound.
