Tim Engelhardt - Rhy

A1 Rhy
B1 When The Sun Illuminated Her Eyes

We got our first taste of Tim Engelhardt’s prodigious talent when ‘Under Armour’ featured on Whomadewho’s acclaimed Watergate 26 compilation earlier this year. The track was a masterstroke of tension-filled chords and crisp drums that put him squarely on the radar of the WG faithful.

His first EP for the label ‘Rhy’, captures the essence of Watergate’s famous Waterfloor at dawn. The title track is drenched in sheaths of warm melodies, as velvety vocal undertones and sweeping strings welcome the morning light. ‘When The Sun Illuminated Her Eyes’, is the more driving accompaniment, as textured synths and delicate keys shine a light on Englehardt’s accomplished skill as a pianist.
