For most of my readers, you know that I was a teenager in the 1990's - during that time some of the most innovative artists in the realm of RnB and Hip Hop were coming out of the UK (artists like Portishead, Tricky, and Massive Attack expanded and brought new life into the genre sorely lacking in the dominant US-based artists). Since then I've enjoyed how styles become mixed with native talent from that beautiful Island.
It's in that spirit that I would like to introduce you to Suave_UK, an artist that is intensely original. His track "Free Spirit," which has a little more than a bit of mumble-rap appeal, is a feast for those seeking a calm/chillout vibe. The looping chants, in the beginning, seem to hint towards something eastern but cascades into the beat once Suave starts doing his thing. Overall "Free Spirit" leans more towards soundscape than a song - but is nonetheless satisfying.
