Digging Soviet Melodiyas with Lexis 

"When it comes to exploring records from a culture across the world, nothing beats going to the source and digging them from where they originated. After spending time in Estonia (a former Soviet Republic) last year and again this year, I went from knowing very little about Soviet-era records, to being obsessed by them.

Turns out, digging Soviet-era records is quite a challenge!"

Outsiders: Lexis (Music is My Sanctuary) @ Kiosk Radio 15.06.2023

Converging myriad elements into a singular tapestry, I present this amalgamation meticulously woven for my cherished Bambino companions, whose expansive sonic ravey visions endlessly captivate me. A traverse from 120 to 180bpm auditory units, traversing the sonic realms of UK Funky, Baile Funk, Electro, Acid Trax, Rap, and Drum & Bass. Radiant luminosity, unyielding fortitude, rhythmic science, cerebral resonance... all while perpetually infused with that certain swing ting!

Outsiders: Lexis (Music is My Sanctuary) @ Kiosk Radio 16.11.2023

For the last 10 years I’ve been releasing this project exploring music that evokes spirituality and a connection to nature. Spiritual music that isn’t necessarily religious in nature and also has a wide musical lens, beyond spiritual jazz or gospel for example.

Spring in my hometown of Montreal always arrives at least 4 weeks later than almost anywhere in the world. And because of our long grueling winters, when springtime arrives in the city you can feel the effect on everyone’s collective mood. There’s a certain indescribable electricity in the air.

This project is dedicated to my mom.
Dedicated to all of us who have survived the storms.

Spring

Tracklist

SPRINGTIME SPIRITUAL 2024 — Lexis

Plucked from an open mic by Grammy award winning producer James Poyser and quickly placed in the “right rooms”, guitarist and songwriter Ezekiel marries the melodies of the western world with the sounds of Africa. Born in West Philadelphia to Nigerian immigrants, he lives through a lens of liminality.

Influenced by his parents, Ezekiel developed a love for highlife music and traditional Afrobeat. He then consumed jazz and neo-soul. As a result, his music reflects a conversation in his soul between genres — deep drones gliding across bright chords, and a percussive bass, accented by chanting and lush tones.

Ezekiel challenges the objective definition of several genres backed by the rich sonic experience of Mell Starr and Eric Lau. The motifs of liminality and freedom -mental, social, and spiritual - are deeply woven into his forthcoming album Everything is Under Alarm slated to be released on December 4th, 2020
