Marking their debut collaboration, Canadian Rifles and Helsinki-based tari arrive at "Mistral" — a three-track EP of immersive, crystalline drift. Steeped in granular textures and subtle glacial pads, the two voices find immediate common ground in restraint, each piece unfolding with the unhurried patience of light changing over a still surface.

Delicate melodic drones bloom and disperse across the EP’s arc, offering a gesture of narrative as they trace forward, their harmonic warmth held in careful suspension. A fondness for dynamic crescendo persists throughout, each surge breathing outward before receding again — a tender first meeting.
