Pote - Tenuous Tale Of Her - Vinyl Record

Vinyl LP pressing. On A Tenuous Tale of Her, Pot (aka Sylvern Mathurin) marks the debut album release for Bonobo's Outlier imprint. A record that's tough, tender and grand all at once, the connections he's built along the way speaks to the variety of his influences: with connections from Lisbon's kuduro-fused Enchufada label, to Benji B and Damon Albarn (who features on single 'Young Lies'), he's built a sound that's packed with ideas and musical touchstones alike. He's received boosts across a wide spectrum of supporters, including Annie Mac, MistaJam, Phil Taggart, Nina Las Vegas, TEED, Pierre Kwenders, Jamz Supernova, Laurent Garnier, and Toddla T. He's been featured in Bonobo's 2019 'fabric presents' mix, featured on 2019 Africa Express album "EGOLI", produced remixes for Little Dragon and Gorillaz, and recently performed on Colors Berlin. Pot's music has always balanced contrasting impulses. On the one hand, there's the rhythmic, celebratory music of his Caribbean upbringing, and on the other, there's his interest in exploratory, emotive songwriting. On this record, he takes that approach in a bolder direction: immersive and atmospheric, it's a platform for those two sides of his music to strike a fresh dialogue.
