Pastel "Cereal" CD

A new talent from London following in the footsteps of Tom Misch and Cosmo Pyke!

The birth of melancholic soul with a jazzy guitar riff as the base and outstanding pop sense! The debut album of Pastel, a young producer who also supports FKJ, is now available on CD exclusively in Japan! The long-awaited debut album by Pastel, a young producer, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter from French Polynesia, currently based in London, is now available in Japan on CD! Based on jazzy guitar riffs, the album casually blends soul, house, hip-hop, bossa nova and fusion with a new generation sensibility, knocking you out with its outstanding pop sense! Influenced by 70s music, especially neo-soul and Brazilian jazz, multi-musician Pastel is self-taught in instruments and songwriting. He currently supports FKJ and participated in the remix album of French Caribbean songstress Aduline's latest work "Interimes" alongside Blue Lab Beats and Kraak & Smaak, performing the opening track. His latest single includes a remix of Snowk and J.LAMOTTA Suzume's collaborative track "Under The Moon," making him a hot topic in the current London scene! Since the release of their debut album, they have been featured in media outlets such as Rolling Stone Magazine, Earmilk, Metropolis, and Stereofox, and have also been picked up on popular playlists such as Spotify's Fresh Finds, Jazz UK, Electro Chill, and Chill Vibes! This is the ultimate melancholic neo-soul with a relaxed atmosphere from start to finish, a glossy, melancholic guitar solo, a rough, nostalgic live sound, and a house/R&B-style beat approach blended in an exquisite balance!
