Kind of Dope goes all LoFi Hip Hop with this haunting Miles Davis style muted trumpet led ballad. Piano harmonies to die for and an old skool tenor sax vibrato lusharoony, ably supporting the trumpet. Dope shows their ability to set mood and keep it locked. Lush. Dope by name, Dope by nature. #newrelease #music
Kabuki meets Anime, SoundTrack SoundSystem style. Soaring violin on a pentatonic scale with koto accompaniment leads to an electro beat laying down a futuristic back beat to the classic sonics.

Open and welcoming. Breezin’ is a luscious slice of guitar led LoFi jazzy groove. It never really reaches its destination, coasting along in a round of unresolved harmonic mystery. It’s all about the sonics with filters and echoes and four dimensional textures wrapping up the simple structural loop into a moment of aural sensuality. It
