Brian Kage returns on Michigander with the, “Best Kept Secret EP.” Kage once again provides three deeply emotional dance tracks filled with his signature warmth that immediately draws connections between personal memories and Michigan’s natural splendor. "Best Kept Secret" begins with tones of hypnotic bells that cascade down from within minor chords that hypnotize the listener until they are met with swelling strings to tie the infectious grooves to intelligent vintage percussion. Lush vocals continue building into an atmosphere of nostalgia and eventually gives way to that moment of intimacy that can only be felt outdoors while exploring with a person they love. "Lost on Old Freesoil Road" features a detuned analog synth-line that winds up and down over a bed of spooky night-time forest field-recordings which are encompassed by a jackin’ 909 beat. Suddenly, juno stabs straight from the ’80s pierce through, sending the syncopated grooves back in the direction they came from, taking dancers along for the joyful ride. "Cruise Control on US-31" rounds out the record with an infectious blend of pitched wooden toms, warm mid-range bass, deep 303 lines, and a smoky pad straight from a vintage Rhodes. All these elements help keep the composition positive and relaxing... Written, produced, and mixed by Brian Kage at the Bear Cave in Detroit Photography by Daniel Frei & Brian Kage
