Following a hiatus, Bristol-based Ryan Artifact, fka Artifact, has reunited with Anja Schneider to put out the Let It Go EP, a storming new release on Sous Music.

The title track is a big-room weapon of the highest order. A thick, rich bassline forms the backbone of the track, in which all elements are polished to a hi-shine. The repeated vocal snatch is subtle but hypnotic, the drums are delicate but purposeful, and gentle synth flourishes provide just the right amount of intrigue.

"The Way It Did" is just as impressive, with another whomping bassline doing the heavy lifting. Playing like a sister track to "Let It Go", it features a similar vocal grab and tight, considered arrangements, but picks up
the pace and adds a peppy build. The resulting track is a surefire weapon at night and day parties alike, guaranteed to get the dancefloor rocking.

"Believe Nothing" completes this family of tracks, with all three complementing each other. Built around a rocking beat, lively chords, tetchy choral synths and the same detached vocal, this one, primed for warmup or cool-down duties, is made to keep the party simmering.

Ryan's relationship with Schneider began in 2017, when he was putting out equally killer tunes on her back then Mobilee label. The Let It Go EP follows the inclusion of Ryan's track "However Far Forward" on a Sous
compilation last year and sees him in the same fine form we've come to expect from him.
