Enhasa is veteran producer Zack Mitchell's sophomore album under his Blackbird Belle alias, and it methodically paints a portrait of a musician obsessed with tonality and detail. From the crackling static and saturated analog warmth of the titular opening track, all the way through to the final moments of the soulful, triumphantly receding closer, Enhasa is permeated with lushly imagined sounds and rich, evocative timbres.

The title of the record is lifted from a mythical kingdom, built many millennia ago amidst a series of monolithic, floating mountains, all chained together and anchored to the sky during a golden age of wonder. As a record, Enhasa lives up to its namesake. The album is imbued with that very same magic, juxtaposing a mystical sense of air, space, and melodic resonance within each beat with the weight and impact of near-liquid percussion and a diverse array of punctuated grooves.

Put simply, Enhasa is an album tailored for the headphone cosmonauts and the deep divers - eight beats that are all at once inviting and enveloping, that gradually unfurl and reveal new layers with each dedicated listen. Enhasa will be released on August 14th, 2020 through Inner Ocean Records (@inneroceanrecords).

Parallelism

Inner Ocean Records presents "Celestial Nighthawk", the debut instrumental hip hop album from Zack Mitchell, aka Blackbird Belle. While being a new producer to the beat scene, by no means is this a novice effort! Mitchell brings years of production experience and a cult following from his days composing under the ambient electronic moniker Atra Aeterna.

Drawing from his background as a clean and intricate electronic producer, "Celestial Nighthawk" is a methodically written album, fleshed out with just the right amount of warmth and grit, making it stand out from your typical lofi beat tape. Ultra wide and crisp drums, tape saturated piano and guitar, horn sections and vocal samples all melding perfectly in the mix.

"Celestial Nighthawk" will be rotating in your playlists and tape decks for years to come. Keep your eyes and ears on Blackbird Belle!
