Hold On To Deer Life, There’s A Blcak Boy Behind: Vinyl LP Alma Negative TrendKabeaush once described their music as the complete opposite of the hardcore leftfield electronic sounds of their then labelmates on Nyege Nyege Tapes. And at the time that was true: the Kenyan polymaths sound on their debut album The Coming of Gaze was fiercely and single mindedly focused towards giddy pop rush, old school party hip hop upfulness, clean sounds, gentleness, bounciness, positivity and JOY. Now, though, the lines are not quite so clear.
