Andreya Triana – ‘A Town Called Obsolete’ (Official Video)

I've never heard of Andreya Triana before today and the web seems to be buzzing about this soulful singer. Rightfully so, she really captures your attention with her alluring voice and mysterious omnipresence; something that's lacking in todays R&B music (if you want to call it that). With an industry and society that overly 'sexed up' sometimes we all need to just chill out, right? It doesn't hurt that your chillin' with a beauty like Andreya either. Sit back and enjoy.

Second single from Andreya Triana, 'A Town Called Obsolete', released on 26th July on Ninja Tune. Taken from her forthcoming debut album 'Lost Where I Belong' (23rd August), which is produced by Bonobo.
'A Town Called Obsolete' is an obliquely upbeat and heartfelt plea for patience and faith in the face of indifference. Triana's voice is perfect for this mixture of longing and hope, smokey, beautiful and tonally perfect. Bonobo, meanwhile, hooks up dusty break-drumming, thrumming electric bass and a horn part that peaks at just the right times. It's another example of the understated brilliance and emotional weight that the pair have packed into Triana's debut.
On the single remix duties are taken care of by the hotly-tipped Mount Kimbie.
Video produced and directed by Mister McCarthy and DOP Christopher Sabogal.
