The keen reader might remember C-Beem, Leicester-based sound alchemist previously featured on our portal. At the time, we were writing about ‘Starships’, a single that we proudly declared as ‘an anthemic and glorious opera channelling a strong grandeur character and a certain epicness, especially in its convoluted songwriting.”. We knew one thing for sure, after writing the article: that would have been a project worth following. And so, here we are, anticipating the British talent’s upcoming record, a full-length release titled ‘Jammin The Steam Towers’.
The album is set to contain 10 original tracks, all exploring the artistic universe around C-Beem’s majestic and complex musical prowess. In it, the listener will find everything that makes the project a rare find: a culturally informed sound, the best electronic tradition, and refined songwriting. Balanced between art-pop, 70s synth-pop and psychedelic tones, ‘Jammin The Steam Towers’ really hit the mark. Our personal favourite must be ‘Toad of Toad Hall’, a song that truly mirrors the glorious era of ‘Synth Britannia’.
Recommended! Look out for C-Beem’s upcoming album, expected on May 19th. In the meantime, stream some of his latest singles on Bandcamp and Youtube:
