5:1

'PROJECT5' is the name of a series of EPs. Each EP centers around one genre and sub-genres within.

This EP is part one of the series, titled ‘5:1’ (or ‘five one’). Comprising of 5 various tunes that all belong to the instrumental Hip Hop arena, this EP is my way of paying homage to the fine world of lo-fi hip hop, chill hop, instrumental hip hop, and a few more. This EP is released with the Lofi Losers collective, an international label that releases music and also helps showcase rising artists from across the globe

5:2

5:2 is the second instalment of the ongoing EP-Series, from The VYB Project’s series – ‘PROJECT5’, which he brings to Se Battre Contre.

This EP is part two of the series, titled ‘5:2’ (or ‘five two’). Comprising of 5 various tunes that all belong to the IDM / Braindance / Jungle zone. Heavily influenced by some artists like Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, μ-Ziq, Flying Lotus to name a few, on 5:2 I try to let go of all the constraints of modern music ‘structures’ that appeal to the masses. I’ve tried to heavily experiment with alternative time signatures, blending together of unusual
& familiar sounds yet still create something that one may enjoy listening to.

This EP is released with
Se Battre Contre, an independent net-label that releases similar music and also helps showcase rising artists in various genres from across the globe.

5:3 is the third installment of the ongoing EP-Series, from The VYB Project’s series – ‘PROJECT5’, which he brings home to Apt.2 Recordings.

This EP is part two of the series, titled ‘5:3’ (or ‘five three’). Comprising of 5 various tunes that all belong to the Ambient / Drone / Instrumental / Neo-Classical style. This EP happens to be the first personal/private event-related album in my discography. Without delving into the details, this album revolves around the sonic textures, ethereal soundscapes & in-the-moment use of instruments & the various modulations of synthesizers to create an environment that helps bring the sound of a dream come to life.

Raj Kashyap, an actor, producer & owner of Ol Bout Cinema, and marks the debut of artist FAULTSNFOLDS

5:4

5:4 is the fourth installment of the ongoing EP-Series, from The VYB Project’s – ‘PROJECT5’, which he brings home to his own label, Apt.2 Recordings.

This EP is part four of the series, titled ‘5:4’ (pronounced: 'five-four’).
Comprising of 5 various tunes that bring joy, calm & a sense of relatability like Downtempo, Bedroom-Pop, Soft Rock & Retrowave genres. This is the first EP from The VYB Project to have all tracks featuring some of the finest musicians he has had the pleasure to work with.

This 4th installment of PROJECT5 was always going to be an album of the people. Uplifting melodies, and groovy beats with an overall sense of happiness are at the core of each track on this album. A lot of time was given to listening to tracks that he felt inspired hope & awoke feelings of positivity for everyone.. especially during these last two years due to COVID.

This reflects on the album's sound palette. There are some strong influences on this record, from the likes of Coldplay, Tame Impala, The Midnight, Porter Robinson + Madeon to name a few.

Each song, although unique, was created throughout 2020 - 2021 with many delays in production and creation due to the limitations of COVID-19 which thus caused the delay for the album to release.
