Sugar & Poison - Modern RnB

More on the modern boogie tip, but find myself coming back to this a lot these days. Brian Ellis is pretty class.

Smerz have done some great stuff and judging by how good this NTS Live video is they will be worth seeing when gigs get going again.

Tipped to this group/LP as a recommendation in TP’s 2020 end of year round up.

Another favourite with that 80’s vibe.

loved Jazmine Sullivan over the years but this new “project” (she’s been very deliberately not calling it an album or an EP) is exceptional

" On “Drama,” Erika de Casier whispers her regrets. This is par for the course for the Portuguese-born, Copenhagen-based singer-songwriter. Since she first appeared with 2019’s Essentials, de Casier has made hushed music about big feelings. A former member of the duo Saint Cava, she’s loosely affiliated with Aarhus’ Regelbau collective, but where that crew specializes in ’90s-flavored house, de Casier takes her inspiration from millennial R&B acts like Brandy and SWV."

The music coming out of Aarhus is very good in places. Some really messed up r&b.
