The debut album Faceless Heroes showcases a radical shift for the young beatsmith, as the production style leans towards futuristic beats, '80s synths and also some downtempo - sometimes ambient - jams influenced by Japanese electronic and new-funk. Kenjanai is not only a producer effort, but a close collaboration with fellow musicians and top-shelf vocal artists: The mighty Elzhi (from Detroit's very own Slum Village) and indie star Oddisee supply classic verses, while Canadian songstress Amalia (known for her tremendous work with Opolopo) brings her nu-funk trademark and soulful vibe in the mix, alongside Kandisky Effect bassist Gael Petrina and turntablist DJ Suspect. Cruising through atmospheric layers and hard-hitting drum patches, Faceless Heroes expresses nowadays producers' ability to navigate from a place to another on the musical spectrum, in order to keep the music vibrant.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Hajime Ni \u003cbr\u003e1.2 What You've Been Missing \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Paris Is Killing Me \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Faded \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Vapors\/Yuge \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Playin' \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Shin'ya \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Beyond the Black Horizon \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Den'sen \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Steamclock Heart \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Akegata Pt.2 \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Some Other Stuff \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Untitled\/Ascent \u003cbr\u003e1.14 Saigo Ni\/After All \u003cbr\u003e1.15 What You've Been Missing (Ghost Track) [Remix]\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
