Funk Cabal release Open Up EP

Funk Cabal’s Open Up EP reveals a raw, club-first mindset — one that speaks directly to the dancefloor without sacrificing any depth in the effort.

This five‑tracker thrives on immediacy: Indie vocals slice through laid-back beats on “Open Up,” while 4x4 backbeats and sun‑bleached synth pads on “Parasolia” conjure late‑afternoon warehouse vibes. Rather than leaning on romantic melodrama, each phrase punches through the mix.Track by track, the EP keeps you guessing. “I Think I’ve Lost My Way” ups the ante with jittery hi‑hats and rolling sub‑bass, a clever nod to the Dancefloor that never fully coalesces into a straight four‑to‑the‑floor stomp.

The magic here lies in restraint. No epic widescreen chords or overblown cinematic swells — instead, Funk Cabal trusts the power of small gestures: a half‑beat delay a barely‑there key chord, a sudden burst of energy.Releasing April 18th on Tremors, Open Up proves that sometimes, less really is more — and that the truest records are the ones that let the other elements drive the groove just as much as the kick drum.
