Both D-Malice and Kid Fonque are well-established players in their native cities; both boasting long-term involvement and impressive credentials. The album shifts easily between ballads and more up-tempo beats effortlessly. Punctuated with spacey interludes, the resulting twelve tracks glisten with sumptuous textures, swelling harmonies and organic instrumentation. Familiar but fresh, rkls feels like you're meeting an old friend with enthralling new stories to tell.
