Tone Of Arc, This Must Be Deep EP

There’s no better feeling than finding a record with a label name that just feels right. Fall From Grace Records. I love it already, definitely somebody who meant it with a name like that.

The whole EP is out June 23rd, 2026, but the opener is the one.

‘Remind Me / Catch Me’ is the big one. It’s a two-part song title, but really it’s one single piece of music, and it does something I haven’t heard in a while. There’s a whole call and response feel to the structure, and I think it sits right at the point in a set where people start actually talking to each other again. Not the four-in-the-morning silence, not the peak-hour screaming. The middle part, the warm part, where the room gets chatty but in a good way, like everyone’s having the same conversation at once. The drums are round, the chords are a little bit dusty, and the vocal sample, if you can call it that, feels more like a signal than a verse. It’s got that live, immediate quality to it. Like it was recorded in a room with the door open.

The rest of the EP is fine. ‘Distant Law’ comes next and it’s kind of just there. Doesn’t do anything the opener didn’t already do better. It’s a comedown, sure, but it’s the kind of comedown that you forget the second it’s over. ‘The Mouse & The Wolf’ at least tries something different, a bit more off-kilter, but it still can’t match the pull of that first track. The two mixes of the title track, ‘This Must Be Deep (Groovy Mix)’ and ‘This Must Be Deep (Dance Edit)’, are fine but they’re not the reason you’re here.

You’re here for ‘Remind Me / Catch Me’. That’s the one. That’s the record.
