“Rothko is the beginning. Each track is a mission statement about what I want to explore sonically over the next few years. It has to be music that is powerful, visceral and exciting. It will be music that channels energy from nature, and it will bring people together.”

THE RELEASE
Throughout the 5 tracks on Verdance’s very first EP Rothko, the mood continuously oscillates between a lavishly alluring, and dance-friendly experience by virtue of the driving house and UK garage rhythms.
The EP features talented London-based neo-soul singer/songwriter Oli Hannaford.
If you find yourself conflicted by whether to dance, or even seclude yourself in order to become wanderlust in this journey. That’s perfectly alright as Rothko provides an explorative sensation that could be entered in numerous ways.
