LA based, Australian born singer-songwriter Cleopold joins us on the blog today with his debut single ‘Down In Flames’. After signing on to provide the first release for Chet Faker’s new Detail Co. label, the single comes as a warm introduction to Cleopold’s brand of downtempo R’n’B with a hearty mix of undulating atmospherics and driving post-dubstep percussive lines. There’s certainly a sense of familiarity within the confines of this track, however that leads to an endearing sense of push and pull in the throes of the more experimental moments that cling on to Down In Flames’ structure. A hypnotising vocalist and a thoroughly exciting prospect; we’ll be looking out for more from Cleopold in the coming months.
