At the tail end of the extensive Pandemic quarantine, during which Blue Beast created the 8 track “Quarantine Singles” album, Blue Beast came upon a new sound, as such, we decided to compile 4 songs on an EP. This journey started with a re-mix of their song “Like a Fairy Tale” (from the album Roaring) by Apollo Nove for the TV horror series Insania. Apollo presented us with a full version of this re-mix and it steered Blue Beast into a more melancholy Noise Rock sound. We could see what Apollo’s direction offered us so we asked for his guidance on these 4 songs. Truus is using her voice in a huskier, moody way and the songs have a melodramatic flair. As we work completely by means of digital music file exchange between Brazil and Southern California, things started to take shape during many interchanges between Truus, Miguel and Apollo. So we are ecstatic to offer these 4 songs on this EP that tells of nostalgia, romance, melancholy and obsessions. The EP is accompanied by the beautiful cover art by esteemed Dutch artist Rik van Iersel.
