Not even a month since debuting on the scene, Baydream is back with the debut EP, “Cosmos.” Baydream’s debut singles, “The Flame” and “Peasants,” were released on the same day last month. The pair of singles are not on “Cosmos;” thus, the four-track EP introduces fans to four never-before-heard songs that demonstrate why Baydream is a rising star.

“Cosmos” is an eclectic body of work. The EP takes listeners on a sonic journey. Akin to the EP’s name, the EP has a spacey, futuristic sound. It is Alternative, Experimental, Indie, Pop, Rock, etc. It truly has its own sound, and Baydream does a great job of showcasing versatility.

“Cosmos” commences with “Leaving.” “Leaving” has synthy sounds with a rhythmic, catchy drum-based backbone. The vocals are soothing and blend with the instrumentation. Track two, “Shatter Matter,” keeps the cloudy sound, but adds electric guitar and has a more Soft Rock ambiance. Baydream’s crooning maintains the euphonious, laid-back tone that is pervasive in Baydream’s music. The EP then turns to “Enigma.” Ironically, “Enigma” has an experimental, unique sound. Baydream uses a blend of autotune and an almost Rap-like flow to express the clever message of the song. The final song, “Fooled,” slows the pace back down a bit and is a great record to serve as the closer for the EP. “Fooled” has a more traditional sound to it, but still maintains the distinctive tone that Baydream is known for.

“Cosmos” is the perfect fall EP. Although, the EP is great for any occasion, it does have a “sitting by the fireplace” or “being out in nature, watching the stars or leaves fall” sound. Each song on the EP has an infectious, memorable sound and resonating lyrics. Press play of “Cosmos” and let it take you to another world.
