Paper Places

Rising producer Nicholas Yiu also known as Poplar Tree recently released a brand new EP – Paper Places.

‘Cradle’ featuring Megan McDuffee has a beautiful piano riff attached to the tune. Beginning with a beautiful intro, Cradle builds into a boundless emotional journey. Utilizing visceral samples in between the rhythm, the tune feels more like a work done with utmost passion and love.

The striking highlight of the ‘Paper Places’ EP is that each and every song is an emotive overdrive and ‘Faces’ exemplifies our sentiment. Like Cradle, the song beings with a soothing melody and soulful vocals. Faces’ heart melting soundscapes makes the track our favourite from the EP.

‘Time’ is timeless (Yeah, we mean it). The tune encapsulates the message Poplar Tree aim to deliver in the EP. Rosendale’s relaxing vocals leaves the listener a feeling of something that they have been longing for, a very long time. Gorgeous piece of work from Poplar Tree.

Finally, the title track ‘Paper Places’. Yet again, featuring the impressive vocals of Shannon Tse, the vocals soar through Poplar Tree’s patented beat and suddenly it feels like it is the ’90s all over again. The track serves as the perfect amuse bouche for what is a fantastic piece of work from Poplar Tree.
