The only person North Downs follows on SoundCloud is Bill Brewster, so you already know his music taste game is Master Sommelier-level black belt.

 

Respect.

Very into this new one. “Dad’s Old Tapes” is a retro-futurist stroll that pairs a woozy swordfish synth with a languid hip-hop beat, dub effects, and a cumulus falsetto, resulting in an inventive modern soul song that sparkles.

 

 

Track of the day.
