My beautiful friend passed away this morning.
I am so lucky to have known this man, and we are all blessed to have his art stay with us forever. Thank you Pharoah
Hi folks, Today we get to share this album with you. A piece that means a lot to me, and I hope you find something in it too.

In 2 weeks, I’m going to be joined by a host of friends to perform Promises @thehollywoodbowl. @shabakah, was in my first band (playing clarinet!) and Pharoah always spoke so highly of his playing. It feels right that he plays the tenor sax part.
Hi everyone, my new album Cascade is out now! I hope you enjoy listening, dancing and raving to it. I've been very lucky to get to work with some friends on this record, @steezmeez , Miriam Adefris, @_kuma_power & @caribouband 🙌 Thank you to @akikonkym for the amazing artwork!
“Dexion” is out today! A few years ago Watanabe San tracked me down to a Tokyo hotel where he told me I was making the music for his new anime. It felt like a dream, and here is the first track of an improvised session that we made for the film with Miriam, Valentina & Susumu to make part of the score for hte new anime LAZARUS. Drops April 11 via @adultswimlazarusanime.lnk.to/dexionAY
I am honoured that Promises has been shortlisted for the @MercuryPrize. It was a dream to work with Pharoah and the @londonsymphony so I’m really pleased to share this with them. Thank you to all who have supported this record and congratulations to all the shortlisted artists!
Pharoah’s birthday today! We had a great time wondering around the British Museum this time in 2018. Here with the goddess Sekhmet, daughter of the sun-god Ra.
Been a fan of the @LateNightTales series of mixes for many years. Found out about a lot of great music in them. I hope you find something nice in here....
'Birth4000' is out now everywhere, link below to listen. I had a few TPs spare so I’ve left them around London. Big thanks to everyone who picked up TPs yesterday!

The next single from my upcoming album Crush is out today. Anasickmodular was a working title which is semi self explanatory…! The initial idea came from an improvisation at Dekmantel festival in 2017. So excited for you to hear the album - 2 weeks!
