BLACK HIBISCUS MATTHEW (FEAT. ANNA FIX)

Nigerian artist Black Hibiscus has impressed us at TMR with his latest single, ‘Matthew’. The track, which features Anna Fix, is inspired by the likes of King Krule and their ability to match atmospheric soundscapes with dark tones and haunting melodies. Amongst the dense reverb and cloudy textures, the two voices play off of each other and sit perfectly in the warm mix. “In real life my best friend Matthew is leaving for a year, and I may never live with him again,” explains Black Hibiscus. “So in a way it is a goodbye to him.” Make sure to check out more of this newcomer’s dreamy take on R&B. -Dan Peeke
