💛🌊🍃 been loving this, thank you.🌞🌜

this is just soo beautiful! I went straight into Rincon daydreaming

Went for a bikepacking trip in the south of France last june. The longest and hardest ride of my life, in the scorching heat, totally underprepared. I could hear this song resonating in my head as mirages danced on the melting asphalt. Beautiful.

🛒 "Figurine" LP Pre-Order: lnk.to/WayneSnow-FigurineID


Nigerian-born, Paris-raised, now Berlin-based, Wayne Snow, today shares "Seventy" via Roche Musique (French Kiwi Juice, Darius). Channeling the sun-kissed, soulful influence of his time spent growing up in Nigeria, "Seventy" deftly weaves elements of electronic music, neo-soul, and more, into a sultry slow jam (for fans of Sade, Masego, or the legend Fela Kuti).

Says Snow about today's release, "'Seventy' is song about perseverance, about overcoming life's obstacles without letting go. I imagined a seventy day countdown to motivate myself to bounce back after a tough year when I felt everything was slipping out of my hands."

Featuring avant-garde styling, digital body scanning, CGI, and contemporary dance choreography, the striking accompanying visual pays homage to Afrofuturism, the vibrant stunning landscapes of the South African desert and Snow's relationship to both. Starring a lone figurine – Snow himself – the visual was taped at the beautiful Tankwa Karoo National Park near Cape Town, South Africa. 

Snow’s custom headpiece and suit were custom designed for this video, created with 3D printing by the art director and stylist Anna Verloren van Themaat and her husband Reep Verloren van Themaat. Travys Owen (an acclaimed photographer & director), producer Allison Swank (who recently won Best Short Documentary at the IMDB Independent Shorts Awards) round out the team overseen by The Swank Group (who have previously worked with the likes of The Roots, Flying Lotus, Erykah Badu, Burna Boy, and more). 

After relocating to Berlin in 2013, Snow became central to Berlin’s burgeoning future jazz and neo-soul scene; as part of Moe Fabrik, he was instrumental in the emergence of nu jazz. Alongside Max Graef, he wrote ‘Under The Moon’ and ‘Red Runner’ and eventually released his debut solo album via Tartelet Records to praise from Fader, Vice, Clash, Boiler Room, tastemaker Giles Peterson, and more. Now signed with influential Paris-based label, Roche Musique (home to FKJ, Darius, and more), Snow is gearing up to realize his singular vision even further in 2021. His ultimate goal: expansion; to situate his art on a different plane altogether and explore how music and art can inform the mind.

Despite his frosty surname, Wayne Snow encapsulates the word “warmth” in every dimension of his being, both personally and creatively. Taking early inspiration from legends such as Fela Kuti and King Sunny Ade, he has united a global audience from his new home in Berlin, developing a contemporary take on the sun kissed, soulful vibes of his homeland Nigeria. You can feel this warmth blooming in abundance through every song and performance.

Wayne began to experiment with instruments at a very young age after being given a synthesiser by his mother. His first musical breakthrough came in the form of the "Red Runner" EP, released on Tartelet Records in 2014. Working with the widely praised producer Max Graef, the pair wrote both “Under the Moon” and “Red Runner”, which put him firmly on the map of the emerging future soul / jazz scene at the time. Shortly after they dropped the stunning “Rosie” EP as well as the highlight of Max’s album “Running”. These influential first productions led up to the release of his his debut LP “Freedom TV" which was loudly applauded by the music press with glowing reviews from Clash, Mojo, The Fader, VICE,  Boiler Room, Vinyl Factory and championed heavily by influential tastemakers like Gilles Peterson.  

Wayne is also responsible for the “Nightbirds” project which he joined together with globetrotting superstar FKJ and regular collaborator Darius (with whom he wrote the stunning “Helios” and “Lost In A Moment” for France’s Roche Musique). You can find his sublime vocal performances on productions with artists like Folamour, Neue Graffik, Noah Slee and the Circle Of Live collective, or via imprints like Brownswood, Dekmantel, Rhythm Section. He was recently shortlisted by both Crack and Clash magazines as the next artist to breakthrough, something soon to be validated by a stellar, new album in the pipeline.
