Courtesy of the homie Fantastic: “This past weekend up-and-coming producer and periphery Odd Future affiliate Michael Uzowuru released his latest beat tape Paisley Palm Trees. With a mellow, optimistic tone, the ten tracks make for a melodic and relaxing summer listen. Uzuworo’s fresh take on jazz, rock, and pop sampling is a welcome change of pace from the styles of many other contemporary producers. Integrating sampling with original production, the young konducta also provides his own spacey low-fi synthesizers on more than a few of his well-crafted beats. Uzowuru comes with an endorsement from none other than the prolific Om’Mas Ketih of Sa-Ra Creative Partners, so it goes without saying that this album does not fail to deliver.” [Via]
