Miami duo SofTT release new EP ‘HaRDD’
Miami locals Kablito and Trevor McFedries – AKA SofTT – are back with a new EP, ‘HaRDD’.
The four-track EP is packed with the duo’s distinctive trance sound and Latin electropop. “I think for both of us the feeling of getting lifted off the ground by a lyric or a melody is something missing in dance music at the moment,” they share.
“We spend a lot of our time listening to country, folk, singer-songwriter driven music as well as the hard stuff so throughout the EP we wanted to incorporate all the things we love into SoFTT. The last few months we’ve been thinking about how to extend what SoFTT is – from experimenting with the show, to rethinking the physical objects that accompany the music and the project. This new music has been at the center of all of that, just trying to push things and create the world we want to exist in.”
