MODERN MASTERS — OMAR S

What I like about Omar S is that whole stripped back aesthetic. Not minimal exactly, just raw — getting straight to the point. He also comes from that generation of Detroit producers who mixes in the Hip Hop influence to his sound, whether that’s a slower, head nodding bpm or more beat driven grooves. He’s also open about the fact that much of his music is meant to be played in the mix, not DJ food as such but maybe just bubbling away under another tune. I don’t like everything he does, but he’s definitely a big influence, and I’ve rinsed the tunes I do like on my last couple of mixtapes. The tune I’m dropping here I first heard on Jez Proctors super deep ‘4am in Detroit‘ and yeah it probably works best in the mix than standalone, but I like it either way, check it yourself. Q
