MANSUR BROWN TOUCH

London instrumentalist and producer Mansur Brown is busy working on a new record that will combine two EPs - NAQI Vol.1 and NAQI Vol.2. NAQI Vol.1 was released on the 30th of September, containing six beat and bass-heavy hitters, including the moreish 'Rise'. Today Mansur releases the second of four tracks that will make up NAQI Vol.2, entitled 'Touch'.The new single follows on from 'Naqui' seamlessly, opening with the same three notes. Deep and organic, the electric guitar plucks flow like clouds moving swiftly through the sky after a storm, clearing the way for the blue. Mansur then layers his signature reverberated guitar in the form of a lead-line that bathes the track in a golden, sun-like glow - it's as if the wet leaves on the ground are gleaming. 'Touch' will make your spine tingle, so have a listen here and keep your ears peeled for the full release. Naqui Mixtapes which will be out on 18th November on Mansur's own label AMAI which you can pre-order via Bandcamp. -Ellie Rose-Davies
