Tom Misch
| Geography
Beyond the Groove

According to Justin Chadwick: “While the genre-defying Geography is technically the debut album proper by the London-bred producer and multi-instrumentalist, the qualifier is a bit of a misnomer as well. Misch’s output has been abundant to say the least over the past four years, with a few albums’ worth of songs to his credit courtesy of an assortment of EPs and the pair of Beat Tape mix compilations. Collectively, his recorded repertoire thus far reflects his hyperbole-free lyrical sincerity, versatile musicianship, keen penchant for multi-layered melodies, and convergence of electronic, hip-hop, jazz and soul influences, all of which coalesce into a distinctive, cosmopolitan sonic tapestry all his own.

An unassuming and uncompromisingly gratifying aural experience, Geography is my personal favorite album of 2018 so far, until otherwise notified. It’s also proof positive that taking the time to fully indulge and replenish your soul with the finer things (and songs) in life is well worth the investment.”
