Surpassing Glasper!? Innovative Electric Soul That's Addictive!
Rime is a rising duo consisting of producer Antti Hynnien and vocalist Sara Sayed. Antti boasts an impressive career, including a nomination for the EMMA Award (Finnish Grammy) for Jazz Album in 2009 with his band Auteur Jazz. Sara is a unique singer whose clear voice, reminiscent of Erykah Badu, has led her to experience various genres and collaborate with Afro-jazz band MopMop. Their strength lies in their innovative "electric soul" sound, which is addictive after just one listen, unfolding over rough beats. The creative and futuristic world they create, combining electric sounds with raw instruments like beats and strings as a foundation, is reminiscent of Robert Glasper. Particularly, "Walking," which overlays modern synthesizers on the majestic classical sound of string instruments, and the title track "Our Kingdom," where intense emotions peek through the beauty, symbolize their music. And "Sucker" has been used in the soundtrack of the American drama Criminal Minds (Season 7), among other placements, dramatically increasing their recognition worldwide. Be warned of its "addictiveness" – the more you listen, the more you get drawn in! Pay attention to them as they create "electric soul" that's conquering the world!
