CREATURES – ALCHEMICAL EP

1. Creatures – Transmutation
2. Creatures – Eclipse
3. Creatures – The Crucible
4. Creatures – Archive

Creatures present ‘Alchemical EP’, their second EP on Infidelity Records, the follow up to their well received 2015 debut, ‘Lost Gods EP’.

This four track offering epitomises the monumental, incremental steps taken by the young trio since their last EP, ‘Lost Gods’. Akin to the last time around, the lads have employed a theme across the release, encompassing the , EP title, track titles & artwork, which in-turn manifests it’s self in the style and tone of music.

The lads wholeheartedly demonstrate their eclectic abilities on each track here.

The EP opens up with guaranteed floor filler ‘Transmutation’, a heavy yet tasteful, Neurofunk roller – showcasing an astonishing abundance of dance floor groove and musical intellect.

‘Eclipse’ is up next – this deep, sub-low gem takes us down a few pegs to a murkier place, as we begin to learn about the individual ‘Alchemical’ elements that comprise this EP. Groove-laden

Track three, ‘The Crucible’, with it’s ferocious lead and smooth as you like sub, takes us back to a dance floor inspired place. Once again, we’re treated to a masterclass in modern Neuro – how it should be done.

‘Archive’, something a little different from what we have come to expect from Creatures – a very clear distinction between solid sub bass and the mid-high frequency ranges. This track rounds off the EP nicely as the fourth and final slice of Drum & Bass.
