Morris Low\" width=\"245\" height=\"245\" \/><\/a>With a thoughtful, yet somber jazz introduction featuring Miles Bonny, &#8220;Theme of Low&#8221; is the start of P. MORRIS&#8217; new\u00a0EP, out March 18 via Bear Club Music Group.\u00a0The <em>LOW\u00a0<\/em>EP is the latest project from former Lawrence native and founding member of Bear Club, Philesciono Canty, who has since relocated to Los Angeles. As a producer and DJ, the P. MORRIS project initiated in 2010. After bringing\u00a0<em>DEBUT\u00a0<\/em>to the table\u00a0in February of 2014, P. MORRIS released various EPs and mixes throughout the past two years, most recently\u00a0<em>DAYDREAM\u00a0<\/em>in June of 2015. Stream all of BCMG&#8217;s catalogue <a href=\"https:\/\/bcmg.bandcamp.com\/music\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>With jazz, experimental electronic, classical and hip-hop facets all somehow conjoined,\u00a0<em>LOW\u00a0<\/em>makes for an atypical listen new to the ears of Lawrencians and Californians alike. &#8220;Theme of Low&#8221; descends quickly into the uneasy, warped titled track, &#8220;Low,&#8221; and with fleeting waves of comfort amidst dark, minimalist transitions,\u00a0<em>LOW\u00a0<\/em>covers the aforementioned spectrum splendidly. Perhaps the most authentic &#8216;Bear Club&#8217; cut of the EP comes as &#8220;Hot Life \/ Blood King,&#8221; featuring Haleek Maul. The track slowly bubbles up to the brim only to defy surface tension; retreating to the orchestral conscious of its own b-side.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Great Expectations,&#8221; featuring a &#8216;tough love&#8217; voicemail sample, personifies the EP&#8217;s candid and introspective essence in just over a minute before hazily giving way to the epilogue, &#8220;Bad Habits,&#8221; which reconvenes with <em>LOW&#8217;s\u00a0<\/em>jazz foundation. This EP will prove its shelf-life in contemplative depth and variety.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recommended If You Like: BEAR CLUB, Arca, Lunice, Gazelle Twin<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Recommended Tracks: 5 (Bad Habits), 3 (Hot Life \/ Blood King (feat.
