Zurich based producer, multi instrumentalist, singer and composer Kevin Wettstein aka Melodiesinfonie is set to release �Softboi�, 10 tracks of sunbaked soul and mellow funk featuring vocals in English, German and Portuguese. Neatly landing in the middle of summer, a hazy, sunset, mellow mood envelopes �Softboi�, bringing in suggestions of Khruangbin�s worldly-funk, the laid back stylings of Tommy Guerrero and the warm studio aesthetic of El Michels Affair. Melodiesinfonie has been continuously releasing music for a decade with several EPs, three solo albums and two featuring albums. Influences are broad: from Lonnie Liston Smith and Pharoah Sanders, a grounding in fusion and psychedelic rock from his audiophile dad�s record collection, plus a healthy rebellious teenage phase of The Clash and Sex Pistols. Following album releases on Melting Pot and Jakarta, Wettstein began transitioning from beatmaking into a more organic style of music making. Buying a new drum kit after inspiration struck at a Yussef Dayes show, and simultaneously reigniting his relationship with the guitar and bass, this new set of tracks emerged. |
