Tom Misch – Sunshine

tommisch

We’re into the sublimely cheery summer vibes, amazing uniquely-warm deeply-sustaining vocals and funky percussion-led instrumentals of new track “Sunshine” from the prodigious 19-year old SE London producer, singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist musician Tom Misch who we recently featured on the blog for his stunningly soulful, guitar-groove enhanced tropical track “Dawson Hights”. We look forward to hearing more of Misch’s seamless blend of electronica, hip-hop and acoustic instrumentals on his new upcoming host-of-collaborations-featuring “Beat Tape 2” which is slated for release this summer.

IAMNOBODI – 008

iamnobodi

Germany-based producer Iamnobodi teams up with Street Dreams Magazine & Soulection on their Create and Explore project which is a rad cross-medium art project in which “beat makers are paired with photographers in order to create and explore the power of creative collaboration”. The multi-artist project, which took place over about a year, resulted in an incredible series of tracks and videos that are each an individual testament to a “collaboration in sight and sound”. New track “008”, the latest release and C & E series topper from Iamnobodi, is a jazzy, brightly lit R&B-tinged sound-scape that provides a lively beat-driven accompaniment to its respective video which (unlike the other videos from the series which were narrower in scope) is a recap of the impromptu North American multi-artist 15-city photo-walk tour for the project. We are impressed with the level of passion and collaboration between the artists involved in the process. Be sure to check out the videos of this star-studded producer/photographer series on the C & E website as they are quite cool! Reviewed by Erin Shay.
