MUMBAI: From the London streets and across the Atlantic, Rowe appeard on the scene in an undefined form which is a project established to be co-produced with beatmakers J£zus Millions feat Charli XCX and Clarence Clarity amongst others, but little else.
What is apparent is the telling mixture of sounds mentioned there is a underlying thread of the dirty hit stylings of the 1975 in its sleazy, coiffed and confessional lyricism, but this is an iteration that takes In the distinctly London glitchy, dark and frenetic electronica of an A.K. Paul or SBTRKT, and marries it to a definite slab of futuristic R and B.
It’s a constantly shifting cloud of a track which is potentially indie pop at its heart. But what’s interesting is the distinctiveness of the layers operating throughout King are always present but never confusing or overshadowing of each other. Rowe is a project with a considered sound, and an ambitious one at that. The first release from an act that plays on a multitude of strengths to craft something as polished as the two known contributors. A compelling experiment that makes us curious as to want more.
