try out maxwell’s 1998 sophomore album “embrya”. my personal favorite track is “luxury: cococure”. delicious basslines, smooth + warm vocals and funky, dynamic percussion. very enigmatic and sounds just like the album cover looks. not on this album, but i also highly suggest his beautiful cover of kate bush’s “this woman’s work”. he makes the song very much his own, while still being loyal to the original. his experimentation, creativity and wide array of inspirations make it obvious as to why he’s seen as a pioneer of the genre.
