27-year-old Kareem Ali is a musician from Phoenix, Arizona. His Bandcamp bio states: "I Create Music For Everything In The Universe.....", and requests, "Don't Confine Me To One Genre....", so we won't. He has a whopping 54 releases on Bandcamp, a lot of them residing in an electronic sphere, combining elements of ambient, hip-hop and house. His most recent release is two-track EP Oasis, containing tracks 'Love Garden Connection' and 'Energies intertwined'. 'Love Garden Connection' opens the EP; it begins with a smooth electric piano chord sequence and Kareem's soulful vocal ad-lib. The electronic drum beat that joins is sunbeamy and house-focused. Spiralling synth lines are reminiscent of Lonnie Liston Smith's 'Expansions', and we bask in the light vibrations. Check out Kareem Ali's 'Love Garden Connection' here. -Ellie Rose-Davies
