"There's fertile ground out there for artists like Caribou, Four Tet and Ifan Dafydd right now - and this four-track EP from South London's Blacksmif (Yemi Olagbaiye) could well be 2012's answer to Jamie XX and Gil-Scott Heron: amazing, in other words." (MixMag, Apr 2012)

Blacksmif - M.A.N.D.Y [SYNCHRO001]

Description:
___________
"...simultaneously aqueous and intergalactic, full of gooey synth lines, syncopated rhythms, and fuzzy, dubby sounds...  so many textures melding and warping together, giving the listener a reason to pay attention."
(Molly Beauchemin - Pitchfork)

"Incredibly strange & wonderful... Stunning... Absolutely phenomenal..."
(Mary Anne Hobbs - Radio 1 / Xfm)

"A producer that we think is destined for big things..."
(Goldierocks - NME Radio / Radio 1 / 4Music)

"...collage-like, sounding a little like the production work of Sampha or Frank Ocean's early sketches."
(Dummy Mag)

"...gruff and sweet, heavy and dreamy, spiky and soft-focus..."
(FACT Magazine - The 100 Best Tracks of 2012)

"...pure professionalism, delighting in the slickness of its own textures..."
(Resident Advisor)

Smooth R&B vocals & delectable rap. 

Artists I sound like: RUBII, Qendresa, ELIZA, Lava La Rue + AZRA BLU

Stoyan Yovchev / Оmori
20, bulgaria
// amek collective

Stoyan Yovchev started making music under the name Omori in 2016. With roots in drum and bass, he quickly expanded his sonic palette by experimenting with a plethora of genres – from lo-fi hip hop to glitch and noise. In 2018 he started performing live at various underground scene locations in Sofia. In 2019 he was one of the headliners of Radar Festival Beyond Music, Varna. Challenging the boundaries of genre definitions, Stoyan Yovchev released two tapes via Bulgarian imprint Amek Collective. Shortly after moving to London, he joined the local family of artists Index Tapes, he was only in his first year of university.

Оn April 13, 2020 Stoyan untimely left our world. A day earlier he changed this page name to ‘it doesn’t matter anymore’. He did, however, grant his family access to this account and it now serves as an archive of his music legacy and a reminder of his impulsive, emotional and bold approach to electronic music. His family decided to change back the account name to Stoyan Yovchev Omori to ensure his work is easily accessible for anybody who looks to listen to it. Tony lived to create and his work and life will always matter.

Remember Stoyan Yovchev - Omori (2000-2020)
