Description
HONEYCOMB was recorded at the Steam Room Sessionsstudio in London, where Natureboy Flako lent his special touch to jitwams tracks across some intimate collaborative sessions. Were left with sonic diary entries that put a magnifying glass on lifes mundane moments, turning them into inspired tales of life, love, sadness, and periods of ecstatic release.
Album opener busstop finds him welcoming you into his world with warm guitar riffs, smooth basslines, and lyrics about the comforting chaos of urban life in India. Features are aplenty on the LP too: London artist Marie Bashiru adds croons to the buttery diamonds and temptations; trumpet is worked in by Henry Wu-collaborator Nick Walton; and frequent Brooklyn-based collaborator Aquiles Navarro features on the lullaby jam hearts dont lie.
Hazy 90s hip-hop drums and warm synths bring the listener into im a rock. Going even deeper, jazz-funk enters the room on trustt, a tune thats all groovy basslines and cosmic soundscapes. opendoors brings up the energy for one of the LPs most full on, hands-up trips; its a mix of buzzing horns and uplifting vocals about the possibilities to be found in any moment if you just let go and let loose.
HONEYCOMB frees jitwam from any parameters of a dance floor 12-inch. It blasts open the doors for an artist who fuses musical identities and stitches together ideas into some of the warmest music youll hear all year.
