In the Studio with…Sincerely Wilson

By In the Studio No Comments

OK, so those of you who follow me on Instagram would’ve seen that I recently hopped in the studio with UK based soul singer Sincerely Wilson.

I’ve been a fan of Wilson for many years now, after meeting him at a small show we we’re both on the bill for.  He struck me then as a stand out artist as he laid soulful tones on a heartfelt track during his perforamnce. We got to talking after each of our sets (I remember calling him UK’s answer to Dwele, complements abound, but he’s evolved since then) and a friendship was born. The thing is we hadn’t worked on anything together musically and since we have a real friendship beyond music I really wanted to take the opportunity to do just that with this new record I’m working on.

In the Studio with…Obenewa.

By In the Studio No Comments

OK, so this is a bit of a belated post. Apologies.

Those of you that follow me on Instagram and/or Twitter will already know that I had the opportunity to hop into the studio with the lovely Obenewa a couple of weeks back. She joined myself, Chemo and producer Isyss over at Kilamanjaro Studios to lay some lush vocals on what’s gearing up to be a front runner off of the forthcoming EP.

Honestly. it was a pleasure to finally share the studio with her (long time coming) and also a bit surreal. I’ve always found it amazing to even get talking to people I’ve been a fan of since before my own musical ventures, and all the more surreal when I actually get to work with them on something. It makes me feel like I must be doing something right! LOL!

Running out of a studio session and wanting to hear the track back imminently is always a good sign. And unsurprisingly, the subsequent track has been on repeat on my iPhone for more than a week now. There’s something real and heartfelt about it that I need to keep reminding myself of everyday. I’m hoping that once it makes its way to you guys, you love it as much as I do.

Much love to Obenewa for agreeing to be involved, and shout out to Isyss & Chemo for helping to make it happen.

My #TrainOfThought is definitely in motion, and we’ll be with you soon enough!

Peace out.

A Night in with the Lads

By In the Studio, Midas Touch No Comments

So the other night, myself, Phoenix da IceFire, and J the Exodus had a lock in session over at Kilamanjaro Studios with Chemo. It had been a long time since we’d all been in the studio at the same time, and as you can imagine the energy in the room was electric. I’m sure you’ll get to hear what we were working on pretty soon but as per usual the guys set the lyrical bar pretty high. Its funny the stuff that comradeship and friendly competition can bring out of people and I’m happy that the people I surrounded myself with from early life still have the ability to inspire great things.

Shout out to Nii from LIMM, Yumi of 4649, & Helms who was in the house representing DNV.
I’m looking forward to sharing another segment of us with you…..watch this space!

#MM.

Peace out.
