R&B producer Alphabets Heaven recently released two EPs, Siamese Burn and Everything Stays The Same, but felt constrained using too many organic sounds. So, on new EP Wander (due May 20 via WotNot), the Brighton-based beatsmith has put more focus on sound design and a more open approach to styles. A perfect little number for the post-rave early hours, "Say What You Mean" sees WotNot co-boss Charo deliver gentle tones that swim gracefully through the slippery, shimmering synths while a gentle beat clicks and pops subtly at the surface. The result is an ultra-smooth, sparkling take on R&B that sets the scene for a very promising future for Alphabets Heaven.
