B.AI has been quickly rising to prominence within contemporary electronic music, and, arguably, one of her most enticing feats is her ability to make the minimal, electro and tech house genres she navigates her own by injecting them with a unique sense of melody. On “The Best EP”, the Chengdu based artist shows she can not only write memorable hooks but can do so while covering a broad array of registers. “Nightdreaming” is a moody builder: although new, sturdily patched layers keep being introduced and the pace never slows down, a sense of restraint remains.

This atmosphere quickly changes on “Satisfy”, which, with its tapestry of indeterminate arpeggios and EBM-evoking vocals, takes a nervous turn. “The Best” on the B-side is a slab of vigor tailored for the peak time. Set to an effective bass groove, modulated chords, white noise sweeps, delicately mixed moans and bright pads nearly trip one over another. On “Crash Landing On Nimas” B.AI , together with Diego Santana, unleashes a batch of detuned and portamento heavy square wave patterns. The EP, diverse yet balanced, ends on a note so ominous… the contrast with how bright we imagine the future for this maverick talent could not be starker.
