Def Sound – fine . lines . feat. Alex Isley + i’ll . wait [audio]
TEXTURE is the 3rd Episode in the COLORED series. TEXTURE explores our relationship with relationships. These aren’t love letters these are loss letters collaged as song.
Sometimes black boys feel things too complex for lettering. We feel these feelings in braille and are given little time to process them. Living in a world where we know we are not safe here, we become safes here filled with secrets.
FINE LINES is dancing to the knowledge of having the freedom to leave a situation that’s letting go of you. Following the songs curvature carefully the chorus is circular in nature and organic in feeling. FINE LINES is produced by virtuoso Mocky (Production and writing credit for Feistt and Kelela) and features the vocal empress Alex Isley (Production and vocal feature credit for Moses Sumney and Robert Glasper).
I’LL WAIT is a slow burn, a conversation you wish was never over in a language you keep remembering to forget. I’LL WAIT is produced by and featuring the insanely talented Yale graduate Zack Sekoff (Production for Vince Staples and Thundercat).
Our experience is a TEXTUR(ed) one.
