serb: qui vive

Fizic presents its first 2017 release from an exciting new name. Serb was born and raised in Craiova, Romania, where he spent his youth playing guitar in Nihilistic, a local punk band. His sophomore record is a prime example of his unique, cerebral take on dance music. "Qui Vive" is a somber, syncopated elegy of rugged elegance, with fizzy drums and percussion filtering in and out over the fragile melody. "Feet Locked" is analog honey poured into your post-rave ear. After-glow synths follow an expertly modulated bass. "Persistent Prick" echoes the esoteric explorations of Actress, with added twisted funk.
