Summertime beats from Shanghai producer and hip-hop jazz alchemist Sdewdent.
Sdewdent finds bliss between the world of instrumentals grooves and simmering beats on his intoxicating self-titled debut with Shanghai-based label Eating Music.
He takes cues from such acts as Madlib, Yussef Dayes, and Kammal Williams, as well as collaborating with a slew of the local scene’s most sensational musicians including the ever wonderful jazz singer Voision Xi on “Sandclock”.
Sonically, light on its feet yet rich in detail – it’s a warm-hued rhythmic tour de force that’s tailor-made for dusk in the summertime.
Stream “Sdewdent” LP on Bandcamp and Spotify.
