Written over the course of quarantine, the duo showcase a new shade of emotion and depth.
Experimental Bass’ fan-favorites EAZYBAKED (Orlando, FL) has long conjured a vibe of curiosity and free flowing expression – offering America’s grassroots electronic scene reliably fun and relatable characters. Now, the duo of Eric Ray and Andrew Principe are ready to set a new standard for their artistry and return with their first single of 2021, “Letting Go.”
Eric Ray and Andrew Principe’s bond dates back to childhood playgrounds. Following their discovery of DAWs in highschool, the two began making beats together daily under the monikers ‘EAZY’ and ‘Mr. Baked.’ Recognizing their chemistry and ability to cocreate, Principe and Ray joined forces as one to become EAZYBAKED
To date, the duo has been booked for eclectic venues such as Red Rocks, performed high-profile festival sets at EDC Orlando and Okeechobee Music Festival, and picked for support by heavyweight electronic acts like GRiZ, Subtronics, Jantsen and EPROM. The duo has released on labels such as WAKAAN (“Vessel”/”Bandzzz”) and Cyclops (“Killjoy”), but has found consistent support for its plethora of self-released music. Following their performance at Okeechobee in 2020, the global pandemic and birth of Principe’s child inspired the duo to expand their artistic horizons.
Quote from EAZYBAKED:
“This song means exactly as it reads. Letting Go gives space to let the new in.”
“Letting Go” (out December 7th) is the duo’s first release of 2021. The 4+ minute track debuts a wondrous soundscape, and provides a stark new direction from the duo. The producers preview the wide open creative space for nearly a minute before the first drop – a melodic and experimental thumping for listeners. These beautiful, feel-y arrangements represent both the sonic and personal maturation of longtime friends and collaborators.
The single artwork is designed by none other than Renee King, acclaimed for her design work as Rukucustoms. The artwork is a strain of DNA made up of an elaborate array of items. The intertwining of ideas, emotions, and the overall blueprint of life are what the DNA stands for – conveying how the project represents the duo as a whole.
“Letting Go” is the first single from EAZYBAKED’s debut album. More details on the forthcoming LP are set to come soon.
