It’s not every day that we come across an artist who exudes raw talent and exceptional artistry like Azanda. Hailing from Rotherham, the former Sheffield native has been making waves in the UK electronic music scene, and it’s easy to see why. With a sound that is fresh, eclectic, and unapologetically unique, Azanda is a rising underground music-maker who is on the cusp of greatness. From the moment we first heard the single “2wins,” a collaborative effort between Paused Pilot and Azanda, we were hooked. The song is a stunning masterpiece that combines the best elements of chill-hop, electronica, and soulful melodies. The production quality is top-notch, and the attention to detail is impeccable.
The song launches with ethereal keyboard sounds and subway-like effects that instantaneously whisk you away to a surreal realm of astonishment and marvel. It’s as if you’re positioned on the station platform, anticipating a train ride that will transport you to a different dimension.
Paused Pilot’s tones and rhythms are subtle and glide effortlessly through the aural atmosphere, while the thumping drums anchor the momentum and pave the way for Azanda’s mesmerizing melodies to captivate and hold the spotlight.
Azanda’s sonic interludes are smooth and effortless, gliding over the arrangement with grace and precision. His melodic motifs are both soothing and emotive, and have the power to seduce and mesmerize the senses. As the song progresses, it steadily escalates towards a higher ground.
The groove-driven mix is infectious, and will have you tapping your feet and nodding your head in no time. “2wins” is as smooth as they come with its steady, funky aesthetic, woozy keys, and an organic feel that is rare for electronic music.
“2wins” is characterized by a constant evolution in sound and scope that somehow continues to solidify its core signature style. Its ability to draw the listener into its grooves are unparalleled. Rich and blissful in tone, the sentiment of the track can liberate its listener from even the most stoic states. A key component within this track is Paused Pilot and Azanda’s attention to rhythm, as much as the tones and melody. Hence, “2wins” speaks to both the body and the mind.
It’s clear that Azanda is an artist who is driven to create. For him, music is more than just a hobby or a profession; it’s a purpose. His influences range from Avicii to Bon Iver, and he’s constantly pushing himself to explore new sounds and styles. It’s this passion and drive that keep propelling him forward.
The blend of percussion, keys and grooves on “2wins”, proves that Paused Pilot and Azanda’s have achieved chemistry to admire on this recording. The warm, nestling and finely textured sonics make for a tantalizing look into the nuanced nexus of sounds that’s bringing Azanda into an exciting musical frontier.
Out via Top G Records, “2wins” is a breathtaking musical collaboration between two immensely talented artists who have come together to create a chill-hop soundscape that will transport you to another world. Azanda’s melodies are mesmerizing, and the production quality is top-notch all round. It’s a musical piece that deserves to be heard and appreciated by all who love electronic music.
