Amai is yet another trip-hot beatmaker from Los Angeles. I don’t know what it is about that city, but it sure has an amazing knack of producing great experimental electronica artists. Fans of Flying Lotus, Daedelus, Nosaj Thing etc. will recognise the familiar LA tinge that Amai has in his rhythms and odd-ball sample re-triggering.
Counting Raindrops is a jazzy trip-hop piece that is cemented nicely together by smooth tenor saxophone, LA trip-hop style drum rhythms and neatly chopped up female vocals that fit ever-so nicely into place together. Download it here, or find the entire EP for fee at his bandcamp page.
