Flow State - Jlin
Welcome back to Flow State. If you love music, but can’t work to music with vocals, you’ve come to the right place. The paid tier has more music – plus subscribing helps keep us going. You can upgrade to paid here. Good morning. It’s Friday so we’re listening to something more upbeat. Today we’re listening to Jlin, an electronic music producer from Gary, Indiana. Since 2015 she’s put out complex footwork music, listing employment in a steel factory and interest in mathematics as influences.¹ She adheres to the genre’s 160BPM tempo and takes drum and sample orchestration to another level of intricacy. Her latest record, Akoma, which came out in March, is a culmination of her fast-paced compositional style and features Bjork, Philip Glass, and Kronos Quartet. We’re also playing her raucous 2017 record, Black Origami. Jlin participated with Herb Sundays recently as well, which you can find here. Akoma - Jlin (40m, some vocal samples) Black Origami - Jlin (40m, vocal samples on most tracks) Have a wonderful weekend. |
