Vibes and Stuff Guest Mix #9 – The Kemistry
easy friends, been a minute since we’ve given you all anything to listen to. sooo sorry, but I had to put Vibes on ice for a while while (?) I sorted some stuff out. I’ve since come to some important conclusions, travelled a bit, met some very cool people, and grown a seriously manly beard. on a recent trip to London I was so lucky to make the acquaintance of one half of The Kemistry (TheKemistry.co.uk), singer/songwriter/all-around lovely woman Kemi. consisting of beatmaker Bare Beats and the young lady, The Kemi-stry (clever innit?) make decidedly trippy soul tunes, contrasting sinister sample-based production with melodic vocals. it’s all very British (Muse covers!) and I dig it tremendously. while The Kemistry live band takes formation and prepares to hit you with new music, here’s a little mix of some of the groups influences that Kemi sent me a few weeks back. enjoy, and as always, stay tuuuuuned.
