May 20 street date. Overmono's "Cash Romantic" EP marks a new phase in the duo's evolution; one that sees them introducing a broader spectrum to their deft compositions, taking their unique sound beyond the dancefloor. Inspired by a box of mixtapes discovered from their youth that contained recordings of tracks they had made by taking vocal-led songs from their parents' record collection and fusing them with techno, drum & bass, and trance beats. For "Cash Romantic", they've adopted a similar production method; layering modern pop, R&B, and trap vocal samples with weighty basslines, intricate synths, and reverberating textures to deliver their most forward-thinking and eclectic record to date. On the record, the duo said "there was always something about trying to get two totally different worlds to collide that stuck with us. After listening to some of these old tapes, we wrote this record and realized our heads are still pretty much in the same space as when we were kids".
