The young Ethiopian producer Mikael Seifu, who I wrote about last summer, has a new release out on 1432r in the summer.
When I last wrote about him I was restrained in my praise of the newer production. However, a year on he has delivered something that adeptly samples from the Ethiopian musical tradition and has nods to some of the European electronic artist Seifu is influenced by.
You can listen to the title track of his debut EP below:
The release is out both digitally and on vinyl, you can pre-order directly on the lable’s website, and contrary to my general stance of Music over Medium I will be buying the vinyl release!
