Electro artist Couros impresses with the track Breath Again. The London based producer has worked with Rihanna and Nicki Minaj’s producer Parker Ighile while mastering and crafting his signature sound.
Couros describes his new EP, “I really wanted a big aggressive sound to combat a lot of polite music that we are (unfortunately) getting used to” and describes his writing process as pretty weird, “I make sure there aren’t many constants or habits, for example I don’t use pre-made drum kits or presets. It makes the first few hours pretty slow and I genuinely feel sorry for all the singers and artists I’ve put through listening to me build a synth sound or go through kick samples.”
The PMR Records artist just released a brand new remix to his Alyss-featured single Never Break.
