Influences: The Golden Filter

The Golden Filter are releasing a new EP on Optimo Music this Friday! End Of Times follows the electro duo's Still // Alone album which came out on the same label earlier this year. According to the band, the EP "is very Buddhist in its ideas", as it relates to mindfulness and impermanence.

End Of Times is out 10th November on Optimo Music. Pre-order it here.
