Caramel (Limited Gold Vinyl LP)

Whether bending genres or collaborating with artists like James Blake, MGMT and Charlotte Gainsbourg, Connan Mockasin has always manoeuvred in mysterious ways. After touring with the likes of Radiohead and Neil and Liam Finn (Crowded House), the R&B surrealist continues assembling a cult around his theatre / spectacle of life.

'Caramel' boasts a unique brand of mutated, lustrous soul that was almost wholly self-recorded over a month in a Tokyo hotel room. Described by Clash Music as "a true cosmonaut of inner space," the album explores different regions of Mockasin's singular galaxy, guided by his truly adventurous songwriting that favours reconfigured pop structures with a skewed funk sensibility.

Metallic gold vinyl.
