New Music Video: Falls – Awir Leon

awir-leon-fall-video-clip

AWIR LEON reveals Falls, the last of a trio of single visuals illustrating the debut LP Giants, out now via pioneering label of the burgeoning Parisian beat-scene Nowadays Records.

The singer and composer follows on from the truly unique Maybe We Land  video, shot on skateboard and the completely immersive lead single Sitting So High. The self-directed video sees Awir undertaking a journey through the woods. As he progresses on his journey he sheds his skin of clothes in an environment both old and new, changing and questioning colours.

Also a member of collaborative electro-pop trio UNNO, AWIR LEON‘s latest single draws comparisons to the most avant-garde elements of acclaimed works by James Blake or Nicolas Jaar through his immersive production and vocal style.

Hear for yourself…check out the video.

dizzy-rambunctious-arcadia

In his latest release, the young New Jersey producer took inspiration from classic and modern arcade games, often fusing the sugary sweet nostalgic rhythms with his laid-back, borderline boom bap trademark. Definitely worth a trial – hit that play button.

NICK RYAN is definitely the one to watch.

Hailing from Houston, Texas this upcomer takes hip-hop/Trip-hop to a whole new level with his latest release, Strings. Almost five minutes long, this masterpiece carry irresistibly heavy drive  accompanied with intermittent harp/Far East-esque overtones.

It’s an acquired taste and it worth checking out…like NOW.
