Track Of The Day 12/10 – Allan Rayman

'Rose'

The cryptic world of Allan Rayman seems to reflect our own, but it's somewhat more inviting.

Those potent early releases have racked up more than 100 million streams, a dank, twilight take on R&B given a highly personal twist.

Now based in Toronto, Allan Rayman's intriguingly titled new album 'Harry Hard-On' arrives next month, a further step forward from the songwriter.

Out on November 16th, production comes from Andrew Dawson, a key figure in the creation of Kanye West's 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy'.

Set to headline London's Scala on December 14th, the album is led by potent new single 'Rose' – and Clash has first play.

Bewitching, at times paranoid, at others beautiful, it's impossible to ignore, matching dirty rock influences to his potent R&B leaning sound.

We're able to share the full video before anyone else – tune in below.
