Faraday Keeps His Momentum Rolling With Awesome EP ‘Voyager’!

Faraday, otherwise known as Connor Drazil, began his journey into the world of electronic music while he was in college as an engineering student. Although Faraday had been writing music and performing since he was a child, it wasn’t until he took up producing that he found his stride. Faraday now lives in Seattle, after finishing college in 2015. With a residency at Foundation Nightclub (2015-18) and with USC events, as well as almost one-million plays, Faraday’s momentum continues to increase. Touring artists that include Mat Zo, Seven Lions, Feed Me, Madeon, Ferhplay, and K?d have “garnered the support” of Faraday in addition to his streaming and performing success. Faraday is no stranger to stepping outside the box, having perfected and worked on his very own style of electronic music since he began releasing in 2014.

Faraday’s discography dates back to 2014 and consists of fifteen single/EP releases to date. Although he took a brief break from releasing tracks in 2019, Faraday returned in style with his 2020 mix of ‘Voyager’. The single was so well received that he decided to take it to the next stage, building an entire EP around it. The EP lasts around sixteen minutes and consists of four tracks: ‘Voyager (2020 Mix)’, ‘Chariot’, ‘Curse 2 Cure’, and ‘Star Dancer’. The opening track, ‘Voyager (2020 Mix)’, sits at a steady 114bpm and commences with a fifty-second build. Consisting of various synth layers, light percussion, and a crescendo of additional melodic elements that build intensity, the instrumentation cuts out at the 0:49 for the drop. A powerful sub-bass, mixed with the steady beat and fast-flowing synth riff, creates an amalgamated sound that is trance-like. Although the EP is categorized as Dance, each track has its own unique style that seems to have a completely different feel from the last: the intensity of the pre-drop build in ‘Voyager (2020 Mix)’; the powerful bass mixed with the ambient trance-like flow of ‘Chariot’; the combination of a dominant bass, spacious synth swells and an eerie yet melodic vocal contribution in ‘Curse 2 Cure’; and the throwback styled synth-dominant vibes of ‘Star Dancer’. Fans of Faraday, along with those who appreciate creative, new electronic music, will want to check out this EP.
