MusicFirst LookBrolin – FlagsExclusive: Stream the glittering electronica of the mysterious London producer's new mixtapeShareLink copied ✔️January 29, 2014MusicFirst LookTextFlora Yin-Wong The secretive mask-clad London producer Brolin has taken a stripped-down approach to hide all besides the music, choosing to express his identity and aesthetic purely through his emotive and deeply personal songwriting. In the age of the self-taught bedroom producer, Brolin has unexpectedly made his distinct mark by singing his own heartfelt vocals, lending a continuously emotive shape to all his tracks. Since his debut EP Cundo, Brolin has grown solely via word-of-mouth, as live performances were rare. Glad that he’s lived up to the mysterious hype, we’ve got an exclusive new mixtape from the Londoner, featuring abstract funk-tinged influences, darkly poignant electronica and glittering cut-up vocal gems, not to mention a steady stream of collabs from Raffertie, Dam Mantle, FTSE, Casually Here and Hannes Rasmus.
