As an artisan of both artifacts and beats, Massud seamlessly applies his craft to the music, restoring the essence of the old school with his unique blend.

'Din Izvor EP' invites you on an introspective sonic journey, each track unfolding like a chapter with glimpses into the past, present, and future of our collective experience.

The title track, 'Din Izvor', combines distant future Sci-Fi elements with a solemn ambiance and religious undertones. It's a musical exploration of humanity's quest for both outer and inner understanding, as we simultaneously venture to the edges of space and the depths of the Self.

Drawing inspiration from a vivid dream, 'Margelatu' unfolds in three distinct parts. It begins with a nostalgic reflection on the influence of role models from the past on the the development of one's own personality. A sudden, playful break provides an unexpected diversion before the track refocuses on an epic final scene set in a vast, abandoned, open space. Here, a haunting choral melody intertwines with sounds of nature, to symbolize a poignant, cinematic farewell to one's origins and the past.

When listening to 'Memories of a String', imagine a guitar string bearing the memory of every note and melody it's ever played. The closing track weaves a tense, nostalgic melody conjuring the evocative image of a bygone moment from a bustling mid-century Tokyo street, captured and perpetually replayed in a mesmerizing loop.

'Din Izvor EP' leaves you with a profound sense of reflection, taking you on a meditative odyssey that explores the essence of memory, influence, and transformation.
