Windmills of the Soul

Kero One
2006 · San Francisco, California
Jazz Rap / Instrumental Hip Hop

Kero One's debut is quiet in the best way — jazz samples treated carefully, drums that roll without hammering, basslines that hold everything steady. The instrumental tracks hit just as hard as the vocal ones, which is rare. There's a consistency to the sound that makes the album work as a full listen rather than a highlights reel. Focused and self-possessed for a debut.
