TWIMM graced his presence on NEW LEASE MUSIC for the first time with debut single entitled ‘Blame’, taken from his forthcoming EP set for release early next year.
He previously recorded under INDIANS and real name Soren Juul, in which he felt ‘both names had outlived their artistic roles’. His current moniker marks a new chapter as a renewed singer and songwriter – with no disguises.
Kicking off his new chapter is an atmospherically lush pop vibe, coupled with a message of accepting loss after a long battle. Soren explains further.”You have to be ok letting go of all the good intentions and maintain a little respect for yourself.”
Stealing the blog’s Album of the Week title with latest EP, ‘You’re Appreciated 2’, A1 (pictured centre) is back in the spotlight, unveiling his new music video for track, ‘Picture Me Rollin’. The freestyle is from his series, #A1Mondays launched back in April – head to his Twitter account and check it out sometime.
RICARDO WILLIAMS continues to bring on Xmas, by putting his seamlessly smooth R&B/soul spin on a festive classic ‘This Christmas’. The track is from his 2015 album, ‘The Gift.’
Fiery freestylist A1 is back, slamming down his sequel to his 2015 EP, ‘You’re Appreciated’, which continue to show his undeniable love for the ladies…
If you heard his previous EPs this year, then you know that this slick spitter is renowned for working his magic over some modern R&B classics – so for those who are massive fans of REAL R&B, you’ve come to the right place; you’re definitely in for a treat!
ASHLEY DAVID has a smooth, sensuous and addictive voice and for his debut release ‘Touched’, featuring Alicai Harley, his attributes melt into a cascade of melodies for a refreshing and genuine spin on R&B.
Taking in his worldly inspirations, the Londoner embellishes his work with glints of his Jamaican heritage as island music and soul vibes flirt playfully alongside contemporary R&B to make his self coined ‘Island Blues’. Featuring the delectable rap and singing talents of one of the UK’s most recently discovered stars Alicai Harley, ‘Touched’ is seductive and genuine, yet fierce.
There’s little doubt as to how ASHLEY DAVID is so well versed in music creation once you have scraped the surface to this intriguing musician, artist and video director. Born into a multi-talented family, ASHLEY DAVID has been musically cultivated by the strong influences of his uncles who were in an award-winning international gospel group and his older brother, a chart topping songwriter, Varren Wade (Wretch 32 ‘6 words’, Stormzy ‘Blinded by your Grace’).
The smooth operator began his career at an early age, seeing him take to the stage of West End Theatre before moving on to study animation and become a freelance creative director/ animator & graphic designer, providing visuals and collaborating with the likes of H Money, Wstrn, Fanatics, N3GUS, Rhyon , Joivan Wade and John Boyega. It is through his own journeys and those closest to him that he’s been able to nurture and hone his craft, being in complete control of all elements that he displays to the world and bringing him to the point he has reached today, a genuinely “360” artist.
Speaking of the release, which was premiered at radio by DJ Ace on BBC 1Xtra, Ashley said: “I am extremely excited about ‘Touched’, as I have been working on my material over the last year and it seems like every skill I’ve learned & developed within the arts has now converged to this point where the world is now about to see all that I’ve been honing. Music, animation, visuals, the whole nine yards will be released and the excitement I am feeling is palpable, I want to take people on a journey into my very own genre which I call “Island blues”.
Start the journey and hit that play button on ‘Touched’.
