Living With Owusu & Hannibal
The debut from this Danish duo is packed with street smarts, a cheeky sense of humor, and forward thinking production. Juxtaposing glitchy digital beats, fat bottom end, and shiny synths with acoustic guitars and lush strings, the soulful tracks retain a certain warmth and organic vibe but have been given a thorough roughing-up around the edges. "Soul music is the foundation, but none of it is pure soul, it's a fusion of genres mixed with soul...We like mixing the innocent playful vibe with the cold, digital and darker elements like synthesizers," says Hannibal. Songs that sound just as good intimate in your headphones as they do blasting through a car or club sound system. For fans of Hot Chip, Zero 7, Spacek, J Dilla, Metro Area, PPP.
