This week, we welcomed the following talented artists who will be taking part in our music festival, 24:1900. 

Esmam La Crowned (ELC) (Bangladesh)

A self-confessed ‘absurdellect’, ELC’s last LP is an ambient, atmospheric, dystopic soundscape. Minimal yet emotive, focusing on subtle textures, field recordings, and granular synthesis this album will appeal to listeners of ambient and experimental genres.

Early Aphex Twin is a good reference point for the introspective atmosphere of ELC’s music.

The Eclecticians (U.S.A.)

The Eclecticians are bace135 and Dj Root, a San Francisco duo making (primarily) hip hop music. They produce fun, creative, and conscious hip hop, with an emphasis on attacking hip hop from different angles and trying new things.

Big Lanterns, their first release, is a creative meandering of different sounds, featuring both samples and synths, chill and energetic vibes, but remains undeniably hip hop throughout - hints of OutKast pervade the LP, as well as old skool hip-hop.

Salomé Perli (Canada)

Salomé Perli is an unidentifiable sonic creature. Exploring songwriting at the crossroads of contemporary music and experimental jazz, she uses music as a vehicle for psycho-spiritual transformation.

Vocally, you can hear elements of Björk’s emotive experimentalism. Salomé’s music will appeal to fans of experimental/modern jazz.

Please check these artists out, and if you like what you hear show them some love.
