Faberyayo x Tom Trago: Nacht EP

faberyayo-tom-trago

Tom Trago and Faberyayo, two enfant terribles, from the Dutch music scene have come together to produce an EP called ‘Nacht’. House producer Tom Trago and Faberyayo, aka Pepijn Lanen from De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig, have been friends for a long time. According to them, they have already created enough songs to fill three LPs, but they have decided to only release the best five tracks on this new EP. Their binding factor is the night (hence the title of the album): “On these occasions I power up my MPC sampler, Pepijn had brought a sample with him, or sometimes nothing at all. He then installed himself in a corner of my room to give directions. Everything is made in his presence. I needed his energy, he needed mine, that was part of the creative process. Suddenly he went silent and started playing on his phone. Then I would set up the microphone and he would rap the entire song, from start to finish. That has always been the first time I heard the lyrics. I think that’s incredible. I have listened to ‘Diep in Het Notenwoud’ a million times now, but I still can’t rap it,” – says Tom Trago to 3voor12.

Earlier this month, they released a trippy video (watch it below) for first single ‘Diep in Het Notenwoud, created by Sasa Ostoja and Jan Jesse Bakker.

The EP is available for download here, and can be streamed through iTunes, Spotify, and Deezer.
