Steven Bamidele — the accomplished singer/songwriter/producer who, under his former Mirror Signal moniker, appeared on a compilation from Gilles Peterson's Brownswood Recordings — releases his debut album "Summing Up" on Tru Thoughts!
Drawing on influences as varied as Marvin Gaye, Radiohead, Lianne La Havas and Solange, he weaves a world of organic electronic soul: personal stories and a falsetto-lit introspective universe that unfolds thoughtfully and quietly, its unique experimental streak spreading gently throughout. Nine tracks in all. Currently supported by Gilles Peterson, Jamie Cullum and Laurent Garnier. (Original Japanese text by COMPUMA)
