Ra Cailum isn’t (yet) a big name on the bass scene, but he’s already been putting out some pretty decent releases (check out his Bandcamp). It’s been nice to watch him progress and find more of a focus, which was my only complaint about his previous releases. Finally we have a focused three song EP in Mapzzz that makes a strong argument for itself even with the slew of amazing Ghostly and Brainfeeder EPs that have already dropped in 2k12.
“Dirac Sea” and “Sakuya” are the fast-paced bass bookends that journey through Ra Cailum’s heavier worlds. These tracks surround the slowly dripping “Celestial Being”. It’s a comparatively minimal track with screws in all the right places. Maybe it’s just the flood we’re getting in Austin right now, but this EP seems like the perfect music for an underwater Spring Break/South by.
