KOAN Sound - Chronos FIRST LISTEN!

[@Nawtystep]

One of the best EPs I've heard in 2021 yet HANDS DOWN. What are you guys making of 'Chronos'? Which track of the 4 is your pick? Drop your thoughts in the comments! 💙💙

The man himself said it

[@danceb4nine]

Yo you need to check out and probably review if you wanted the new song with Akeos , Skream and Must Die. That goes hard af

Koan is just levels above so many other producers, its insane

[@andrewmaclean9810]

Not so many... all

[@AYouTubeChannelwithNoName]

That not even Virtual Riot can beat them. I think Virtual Riot is overrated.

[@andrewmaclean9810]

@@AKZbinChannelwithNoName VR is one of my favorites within dubstep but recently he hasn't put out much sadly. He is arguably one of the most skilled dubstep guys though alongside artists like Zomboy, Soltan, Au5 and PhaseOne. Still none of them quite on that KS level and I say that with the utmost respect for all of them.

[@rebirth4119]

I think Koan Sound is one of those groups that many don't appreciate but those who do have become like a cult following. I think the average producer who may not like the music can still appreciate the work of art this is.

[@christianharris5323]

KOAN most definitely went all the way to "final mix 245" "final mix 246" "final mix 247"

[@dominickeane5482]

Koan Sound are hands down my favourite producers. Now it's just a case of waiting for anything new from them, it's been a hot minute

[@thealaskanforever]

KOAN Sound was on a bigger label. OWSLA and Inspected. They’ve released a lot since that album you’re talking about. They’re very active on discord and host remix contest every now and then.

[@Nawtystep]

Yeah in the moment of streaming, already a couple of EPs deep, that glossed over my mind, forgive me 😅

[@CJMattias]

KOAN sound and Mr. Bill, geniuses of the genre 🤌

[@Yosh4761]

This EP is just magical on every front. All the tracks are so different and yet they put you in this same state of riding the wave of sound to the end. Loved it all the way through.

[@yyeahsure]

Watching you just get blown away by this EP is so fun lmao

[@socialkidmusic]

I love the return to glitch hop, I use to listen to Meanwhile in The Future by them all the time back in the day.

[@prismskiesmusic4076]

KOAN SOUND are so underrated and underappreciated . Sound design wizards

[@MyouKyuubi]

They're up there with Infected Mushroom, i'd say.

[@beziimusic]

Absolutely incredible work from them as per usual, so glad they’ve made a comeback this year

[@oooAverageJoeooo]

Also, I think for the most part their percussion from older tunes still holds up quite well, take their collab with Asa - Fuego as an example haha

[@andrewmaclean9810]

I don't think non-producers realize how ridiculously advanced this production is. No one in the game in any subgenre of electronic is even close to what these two guys can do, and yes I'll go there, not even gods like Noisia or Mefjus

[@oooAverageJoeooo]

Koan really are the definition of the producer's producer

How about Au5? Dude’s a mastermind. He has been producing for over 10 years. I’d say he’s on the same level as KS.

[@andrewmaclean9810]

@@AKZbinChannelwithNoName Au5 is an absolute god and Steve Duda himself has said that he is probably the most advanced Serum user, however even Au5 is simply not on the level of KS. I myself have been producing for 10+ years so my ears are highly trained to understand what is actually going on under the hood of a track, and I been listening to KS since before they were even on OWSLA. I was also a huge fan of AU5 all the way back when he was putting out all those Fractal collabs back in 2012-2013. Love them both but still. KS tracks don't even follow standard song structure, their tracks are like living organisms. And they are also incorporating a shitload of real instruments into their production in insanely unique and creative ways. They take years to finish even a single track, and typically write ~45 minutes of music that they cut down to a 3 minute song. Thats insane. The only guys I can think of who could be close to their level are Noisia, but even they are quite far off.

[@jacksonjames6071]

@@andrewmaclean9810 Couldn't have put it better than this mate. Big agree. Au5 is absolutely good, but nah. KOAN Sound is just..... on a different plane of existence altogether.

fantastic ep, GOAT producers

[@Sunkhrist]

Yes! I hope neurofunk comes back this year 😭🔥

[@richardsavolainen944]

Aeon was my favorite of the EP

[@dpounder101]

love the video but i really wouldnt call any of this minimal lol. There is quite a lot going on, its just super cohesive because koan are absolutely masterful.

[@Nawtystep]

Yeah I mean in the heat of the live streaming moment there will be the odd time where I say something I don’t quite mean 😅 always loads going on for sure I agree, suppose some of the ideas came across as more minimal comparatively in terms of space left available

[@linkedwinters]

I think he meant minimalistic, utilizing the odd well placed silent moment.

[@Neanderthal-cp5fp]

Aeon is something else

[@vubobinali]

Yo someone in the twitch chat said the discord link doesn't work, so I checked and yeah it says its invalid?

[@Nawtystep]

This is really odd coz it’s been updated multiple times, will get around to changing it again but thanks for letting me know!
