Monk' delves into the intoxicating sphere of electronics, which has recently
culminated into the Truman Shuzz EP. This talented Parisian continues the West Coast
tradition that we have grown to be very fond of, uniquely channelling atmospheric
boogie-synths and swinginÆ rhythmic beats, resulting in a distinct sound that is
predominant in his first beat tape - which says it like it is : Raw Futuristics
(monkbeats.bandcamp.com/album/raw-futuristics).
We were hooked, and impressed, at his stunning narrative through electronic
mutations. Amidst the rawness of his production, a nostalgic wave of warmth tides
over each track. Exuding a melancholic charm, ôTruman Shuzzö is a display of mature
introspection - less forlorn, a lot more edge. Its startling how something simple can
stir such compelling emotions in a listener.
We champion this optimism through adversity, it stimulates the movement of funk û it
unfolds a story, and here we present to you MonkÆs first chapter with Darker Than
Wax.
