The Parisian powerhouse Dustycloud is back with his 3-track EP Skyfall. In this EP, he goes against the genre norms as a form of self-reflection.

Skyfall contains 3 tracks: “Passion,” “Find A New Direction,” and “Mighty.” Each one brings something new to the table as he experiments with new things. The motto behind Dustycloud is “just be yourself,” something that he is certainly doing! He stated that years ago, he hit a point where he almost quit making music.

It made me question why I had been using my years of learning music production to just follow trends and try to make what was popular. I decided it was time to make my own style of house music, and not give a f*ck about what other DJs were producing, this is where Dustycloud was born. […]”
