Zak Abel is blossoming.
The singer's new EP 'One Hand On The Future' features a raft of collaborations, with the singer pushing himself into new situations.
A collaboration with Montreal beat maker Kaytranada is already online, with Joker, Karma Kid and Tom Misch all contributing on guest production.
The central thread, though, could only come from Zak Abel. Clash is able to premiere new cut 'Running From Myself' and it seems to encapsulate everything that's exciting about this artist in one short, sharp blast.
Effortless digital soul, the experimental production is allied to a supple vocal take which nods towards R&B while retaining a deeply British outlook.
Seemingly arising from days spent in Karma Kid's bedroom/studio, the carefree sessions have led to something unmistakably charming.
Check it out now.
Check out Zak Abel at Hackney's Oslo venue on September 7th – tickets.
