Flow State - KMRU
Welcome back to Flow State, your daily instrumental music newsletter. Paid subscribers get a daily Spotify playlist, unlock the weekly Tuesday podcast, and keep this newsletter alive: Good morning. Today we’re listening to KMRU, a Kenyan music producer from Nairobi. We previously featured Joseph Kamaru’s music in 2020 and in 2023. After gaining traction as a house/techno DJ, he ventured out to Rongai, where he made field recordings and produced ambient music. His 2020 record Peel is a favorite of ours, but today we’re playing his two latest LPs, both released within the past year. Stupor from Oct ‘23 is a triptych of longform, pitched-down, glitchy synths with some field recordings of Nairobi.¹ We’re also playing Kamaru’s latest LP, Disconnect, a collaboration with British musician Kevin Richard Martin aka The Bug, which just came out a couple weeks ago. Stupor - KMRU (40m, background vocals in field recordings) Disconnect - KMRU & Kevin Richard Martin (50m, some vocals) We wish you a great start to your week.
