Early next month, 20-year-old Vienna-based producer Wandl will debut on the Affine label with the Far Way Home EP, for which the soul-strewn “Steps” will serve as the record’s lead cut. At its base, “Steps” is a jazzy beat, one flushed with warm chords and melodic keyboard runs which glide atop the track’s somewhat broken rhythms. Eventually, layers of Wandl’s own voice rise to surface, never exactly taking the lead, but rather adding another reverberated texture to the production’s dusty sonic palette. Wandl’s “Steps” will join four other efforts from the budding producer when his Far Way Home EP officially lands on December 8.
