Flow State - Kafari
Today's edition is sponsored by How to Begin: Start Doing Something, a new book about identifying what to spend time working on. “Piercingly frank, funny, gorgeous, vulnerable, and ultimately really damn helpful.” –Julie Lythcott-Haims, author of How to Raise an Adult Subscribe to remove ads | Advertise with usGood morning. Today we’re listening to Kafari, a producer and pianist residing in Portland, Maine. Kafari’s 2021 record, Blanket of Black, came to our attention via the blog Aquarium Drunkard, who described its tracks as “breakbeat nocturnes.” The record’s 22 instrumentals were made from recordings of a soft piano found on an old hard drive. “Crafting loops and beats out of these recordings became a healing practice for my mind and spirit,” Kafari wrote, “and a way of imagining a world that I felt at home in.” We’re also playing his 2018 debut LP, Beholding, which consists of solo piano recordings, unchopped. Blanket of Black - Kafari (50m, no vocals) Beholding - Kafari (30m, no vocals) Have a great Thursday.
