February’s edition of my SONLIFE Select mix, lots of saxophone and analogue electronic sound from the likes of Another Channel, @vynehall and @lauraemisch , some epic ambient soundtracky stuff from @psb_hq and new music from @robohandsmusic and @svaneborgkardyb and of course another banger from @daniel.ebende ☁️🌥️🌞
Happy new year my friends!! 🥳 Got some v exciting projects this year.
I’ve updated my SONLIFE Selects playlist and have turned it into a continuous mix.. the mix settings on Spotify are a bit shoddy but have managed to get it to a place I’m happy with.
A mix of very beautiful Experimental//Jazz//Triphop//Electronic. Listen on your crisp cold walks, at home with a friend, cooking a lasagne or a vegany tart 🍮

Gonna be making a new one every month and will hopefully eventually manifest it into a radio show again.
Shave, sare and tell ur mates! 🎧
💿💿 My new EP, Motion EP is out today!! 💿💿
There are many samples/chops from past sessions that I use over and over again, so I’d just like to thank these particular friends for having lent their talents @samuelsleach for his masterful keys, @bernezed the drum don for general drums and the same cymbal that I keep using over and over lol (which can be heard on this track Willows), @tommy__margarita who’s cellos reverberate and weave in and out of so much of the music!

Other Side, the second single off my forthcoming EP Motion EP is out now!! 💿
I’ve always wanted to do something a bit more Housey but whenever I go to make a tune like that, it comes out as something else, kinda the opposite happened here, I started with some Rhodes chops that my dear friend and collaborator @samuelsleach recorded for me for a different tune 🧡 and the result ended up being this tune.
Super happy about this one! Hope you enjoy 🌳
EP out next week Friday, so is brother @jerkcurb ‘s album (which is a real masterpiece), you can listen to them like Barbenheimer but on constant repeat.
For anyone who’s read this far, thank you for your continued patience and attention, I’m also doing a listen party for the EP on Monday next week Bandcamp 8pm, so you can get a sneak preview of it then.
🧡
Hello friends! I’ve updated my SONLIFE Selects playlist on Spotify. I put a lot of time and thought into curating this playlist, I know AI could probably do something similar 🤖 the intention is for it to be like an album to be listened from start to finish, but enjoy however!
Genres span Jazz//Experimental//Electronic//Downtempo including the likes of my hero Ivor Cutler, a stunner from Irish musician Frohn, and some absolute legends like Dictaphone and @andystottmlove 💿
Tender, the first single from my next EP is out nowww 💿 out on @dspprdisappear !!
Next single out next week, EP out on Nov 28th 💫
Listen on repeat 🔁
Tell your mates 👯
Spread the love 🧡
💿 NEW MUSIC OUT NEXT MONDAY (10TH) 💿
The first single “Tender” from my forthcoming EP - “Motion EP”, will be out on Weds. EP out November 28th, will be dropping another single next week❕
This EP will be more “uptempo”, some dancier tunes on there whilst maintaining an Ambient/Downtempo (for want of better genre words) sound.
Thanks all for the continued support with previous releases 🧡🙏🏼

A few words about the ‘Desert Island Versions’ that came out recently on @dspprdisappear (link in bio) 🐪✨
It is such an honour to have such esteemed producers like @sonlife_ giving a new perspective to my music. I love Ojan’s music in all its cinematic glory..you will definitely FEEL something listening to him! His debut album came out a couple of years back and it’s stunning..’Blue Whale’s Theme’ still makes my hairs stand up every time I hear it 🐋
He blessed ‘Leather Wallets 1JD’ with his elegant trademark sound...that gentle garage like groove, it’s kind of laid back and introspective, but you’re always bouncing. Love the subtle atmospheric additional synths he laid down which also gave it some real depth! 🙏
You can find all the versions in the usual places, but for the big win, Bandcamp is the place👇

Was sooo lovely to catch up with my friend @benjaluwi on his @netilradio show last week, being given the opportunity to talk about my EP, influences, theorising the ambient genre, heritage and much more. I had so much and the time flew by.
You can listen back to it through the linktree link in my bio.
Pls follow @benjaluwi and listen to his show 🧡
Good morning!! I’ve updated my SONLIFE Selects playlist on spots for anyone interested, follow the linktree link 🧡💫 a blend of Jazz, Downtempo, Neoclassical, Ambient and Deep House from artists such as friends @plumm.sass , @daniel.ebende and artists I’m into at the moment like @persian_empire_music and many more.
I do eventually want to turn this into a regular show as I miss having a show.
Next week Friday I will be on a friend’s show, @benjaluwi over on @netilradio playing my EP and inspired music around it 🧡🔥
