Description
Childhood Swing is the debut release from twin brothers Tairiq & Garfield, who, with Software labelmate Napolian, form the bourgeoning production team The Renaissance Music Group.
Although Tairiq & Garfield grew up in the Pasadena neighborhood of Los Angeles, they spent their childhood in a state of migratory flux, surfing couches with music as the only constant. From the get-go the twins were exposed to the recording studio by their father, a founding member of R&B group Shai, and their mother, a rapper on Easy-Es Ruthless Records imprint.
Tairiq & Garfield now carry on their parents musical legacy. Inspired by science fiction and computational funk, Childhood Swing is an meticulously crafted speedrun through their labyrinthine world of sound. A sense of songcraft and melody permeates the twins'' ultra steely and teched-out production perimeter, generating an awesome contrast between the pacific and the cryptic.
Not unlike labelmate Huerco S.s smudged club topographies and Napolians epic sense of instrumental narrative, Tairiq & Garfield always tell a story through synthesis. Childhood Swing is a mutated transmission of styles toyed with and bent into new forms born out of individuated futurism; an incredible first look at Tairiq & Garfield / The Renaissance Groups own transformation into the bright, young leaders of the new school of cyberfunk.
