Dateline: late December. The precipice between the past year and the year to come. A new year is always a nicely poetic time for new beginnings. Speaking of...

In the first week of this year, the visionaire behind the eponymous high-speed melted computer parkour pop project ENNWAY launched a new alias. CloudBoy hit the ground running with the explosive single "COIL UNCOIL", and "meet you at the gates" not long after. Both songs exemplified the novel, blazing trail that the precarious breakcore producer was paving-- the latter introducing incredibly slick songwriting and vocals, laced generously with corrosive wit. Now, close to a year later, CloudBoy has wrapped the fruits of its labor into a deceivingly compact package.

This is "burning faces".

This studio EP/compilation showcases CloudBoy's most refined works up to now. Each aspect of this release has been deftly sculpted into distinctive forms by the artist itself. Evoking the pantheon of mid-00's action programs at their most brisk and maximalist, these seven high-tempo tunes take crystalline synths and crashing bass and percussion to new heights. Tracks such as "REAP" and "heaven is a fake" feature CloudBoy's tightly performed, sardonic lyrics, with many effects and shakeups to keep your ears glued to the speakers. The instrumentation is equally as engrossing, emblematic of the producer's modus operandi, and in turn their boundless inventiveness.

The climactic instrumental finisher rises to a fulmination of musical impacts, the festive bow tied atop this first chapter of CloudBoy's journey. It nicely wraps up this chapter of FNL as well, as this is our concluding mainline release for 2023. Keep an eye out for our anniversary compilation next week, and we'll see you in 2024 with more awesome music from awesome people!! ^[(^u^)]^
