"Prelude" EP is the inceptive release of Oxmose, which marks the first entry in an ongoing catalogue, and the beginning of a journey with various artists. At its heart, "Prelude" EP is a dialogue between two composers; a conversation that traces the line between abstract, electronic experimentalism, and glittering interpretive jazz. Parisian producer Shcaa takes control of Side A with "Core"; a 20-minute exploration into sound, which skirts the fringes of avant-garde minimalism and experimental rhythms. The song's acute cadence lays down a dense and atmospheric foundation for the EP. Side B sees Romanian artist Traian Cherecheș offer up an absorbing counterpoint to Shcaa's opener on "Cage". The energy of Cherecheș's response fuses organic and interpretive sounds, into a deft jazz reinterpretation, revealing a wide and surprising cinematic ambience.

Mastered by Rashad Becker from Dubplates & Mastering Berlin, "Prelude" is released on limited edition 12", 180g heavyweight vinyl - with an outer sleeve featuring handmade artwork created by graphic designer Alice Voinea. The organic materials used in her work, emphasise the interchange of the record, adding a further layer of continuity that stretches between the artist, the music, and the listener.
