Meet Broey., with over 15 years of experience in the industry, millions of streams under his belt, and a style that can only be described as “experimental lofi.” Pretty crazy, right?

“Fragments” is a perfectly chosen title for this outstanding EP, consisting of various little pieces that come together to form a complete puzzle. I was immediately drawn to Broey’s vocal choices from the very first track, “Like That.” Here, a minimal Deep House foundation receives an energetic twist with a wobbling bassline and a frenetic vocal loop. It’s clear that “Fragments” defies convention right from the start.

This review will delve into two key aspects of Broey.’s distinct style: his creative vibes and quirky vocals. “Fragments” possesses a significant personality trait in that each piece maintains its own unique identity. While this makes the listening experience incredibly engaging—you never know what to expect with each track—it also lacks a cohesive thread that ties the different pieces together. However, upon closer inspection, it becomes apparent that this lack of uniformity was intentional all along.

Broey. is simply showcasing his personality and style, and the best way to do so in under 20 minutes is to take risks and provide a 360-degree experience. And despite the occasional bumps in the road, the journey is undeniably amazing.

Beginning with the captivating showcase of “Like That” and “Run For Cover,” the EP then transitions into the tranquil “Wanted,” perhaps the most “standard” release of the collection but still offering a hint of where it all began. Laidback and featuring a modulated vocal, “Wanted” effortlessly soothes the listener with its intriguing blend of percussion and melody.

Next up is “Numbers,” which introduces a Tech-inspired vibe with another lively vocal loop and funky, minimalist bass. This is followed by the EP’s sole collaboration, “Breathing Room” with Vivid Fever Dreams, where an enchanting saxophone adds yet another layer of depth to the experience. I must admit, I was thoroughly impressed by the outcome of this track—it oozes potential, and that vocal loop is simply infectious! Finally, “Eyes On Me” serves as a fitting farewell, delivering the same nostalgic lofi vibes in a bittersweet conclusion.

Overall, I was blown away by Broey.’s unique approach to the genre, and I’ll definitely be keeping a close eye on this veteran musician as I see a ton of potential in his future endeavors.
