about

Drummer and music producer, Fernando Damon debuts on the Lilies label with a two-track EP that stretches and tests the boundaries of broken beat, drum n’ bass, experimental house and free jazz in a curious and intricate approach.

Robin Fassie (known as RFK and a member of Mabuta) completes the project with top performances on both sides. On ‘No Hope After 1’, explosive drum breaks and percussion-heavy loops keep a solid foundation for Fassie’s somber melodic lines to fall in and out of the mix. Fernando’s humble ode to his early drum n’ bass influences come through from a new and fresh jazz lens to create a deeply meditative piece. This is further explored on the tougher and more energetic B side, Mongo. With swelling brass chords and a steady-rolling broken beat over sampled jazz cuts, Fassie’s trumpet line jolts along, driving the piece into new psychedelic territories.

Surrender is a small and profound exclamation of Fernando’s musical sensibility and strength at just a young age of 22. This is suited for all situations, from the bedroom to the dancefloor.
