With their joint debut album on Plastic City, Mikhail Kobzar and Yefim Malko present a charming and profound journey through the world of deep house. ‘Together Again in Puff Pastry’ is a sonic invitation – light-footed, warm and full of groove – for relaxed afternoons, intimate dancefloors or moments of immersion with headphones.
In eight lovingly produced tracks, the two artists combine minimalist structures, lively melodies, organic samples and emotional depth. Sometimes playful, sometimes dreamy – and always with a pinch of humour and musical sensitivity. The result is an album that works both as a whole and makes each individual track an experience.
