jack colleran doesn't sleep, and it definitely shows. the 18-year-old producer, who goes by the name mmoths, has embraced endless nights in exchange for something more; a unique ethereal sound that's entirely his own. after setting the internet abuzz last spring with his track 'blisters', he now releases his debut self-titled ep, on sqe music. ignoring genre conventions, where no sound, vibe, or melody is off limits, the ireland-based artist and producer hooks you with sparse synths dripping in reverb. without hesitation, he transforms digital soundscapes into organic songs. the subtle effects of his nocturnal writing process can be heard on the ep's five tracks. notable songs include the ambient ep opener 'thnx,' along with 'heart,' a true 21st century love song featuring keep shelley in athens, and 'summer,' which features the la-based superhumanoids. whether listened to in the daylight or under the dark night, this release will leave a resounding effect on listeners. mmoths is here to kindle a new flame for electronic music, pushing it into lush new territory with the honesty of the young and impassioned.
