  • Description

    Formerly known as Soulful!, Drew Dave shed the moniker after adopting the philosophy that soulfulness is implied. Some might attest to the soul of synthesizers and Drew Dave has the counter in the form of tracks like Jay Deesian bounce of "Everything's Gonna Be Alright" and breakbeat exoticism of Blockhead in "Red Flowers".

    With live instrumentation and vocal contributions from rappers Cortez and Kenn Starr, SynthBASED is not to be classified as a hermetic instrumental hip hop record. Blue Note piano loops colliding into rap toasts over afrobeat percussion on "Quarter Life Crisis (2-5)" speak to Drew Dave's aspirations for musicality over purging straight beats. SynthBASED is a rhapsodic journey, in which Drew Dave has doodled over the syllabus, creating ornate embellishments of prerequisite texts.
