#future-soul

Matt Woods is arguably our favorite solo artist from the UK. Each and every one of his releases these past two years have blown us away, and his voice has always been utterly remarkable. The dashing singer songwriter leaves us trembling in the powerful wake of his deeply cutting new single Stop. It’s as if he ignites a fire within my heart with his exceptional falsettos and sensationally produced electro-soul, which he’s been dubbing future-soul long before the more dance relevant sub-genre of “future soul” was ever coined. The breathtaking and cathartic ballad evokes a blend of James Vincent McMorrow and Ben Howard, with widescreen electronic production replete with rich swelling synths and spine-tingling bass wobbles. Re-visit Matt Woods’ outstanding collection of tunes, here.
