Canopy by Blackadder
“Canopy is built around intricate layers of tonal percussion — it starts in a tight, detailed groove that feels like being under a forest canopy, with flickers of light peeking through the leaves. As the track unfolds, sweeping strings emerge and everything opens out into a vast, melodic space, like stepping into an open landscape with a river winding through it. It’s about movement, contrast, and the emotional shift from close-up intensity to something more expansive and free.“
On his new release, Blackadder blends organic elements such as ethnic plucks, strings, and kalimbas are decorated over groovy house rhythms to create a warm, earthy experience. The seemless movement of the different parts of an ecosystem is elegantly reflected in “Canopy,” particularly through its dynamic, percussion-focused progression, dancing with the uplifting melodic embellishments.
