Love For That
Following the release of his outstanding Someday Somewhere EP back in April, Mura Masa has everyone wanting more. Today, we get some long-anticipated new material with the first single from the UK-based wunderkind’s upcoming sophomore album. “Love For That,” in part thanks to fantastic vocals from Shura, displays yet another facet of Mura Masa’s sound coming about as close to a slow jam as he’s gotten. Even so, his always-inventive techniques and distinct sounds continue to shine–from the intricate string section that starts the song to an enormous, yet perfectly placed, breakdown half way through. The smooth percussion cultivates a playful bounce that, despite the track’s somber tone, make it a great contender for late-night club play. There’s no release date or title for Mura Masa’s sophomore album quite yet but we’ve certainly got our eyes peeled.
