Experimental R&b
Upcoming Sonder Tour
Made up of producers Atu and Dpat with lead vocals by Brent Faiyaz , the collaborative entity Sonder took form in 2016, quickly crafting a slew of songs characterized by minimal beats, blurry multi-tracked vocal harmonies, and a fragmented, futuristic take on traditional R&B. The trio spent the fall of 2016 in a flurry of productivity, dropping mixes "Victoria," "Undone," and "Sheath" in quick succession, all three projects notable in their seductive, low-lit production and extended running times, none under ten minutes long. Gaining momentum and buzz from this initial blast of particularly uniform releases, Sonder followed up in the early months of 2017 with the seven-song EP Into, dialing back the song lengths and switching styles somewhat from the smokescreen haze of their early output, opting for a more direct sound that nodded to the production of '90s R&B innovators like Timbaland and Ginuwine. ~ Fred Thomas, Rovi
