I came across the wares of B. Lewis (Brad Lewis) randomly a few weeks back when a work colleague cracked on his latest master piece of an album on the communal player and i am addicted. Since then i have been working google like a beast to try and find out as much about the man as possible and it is proving tough. With his illusive online presence albeit the standard soundcloud ( http://soundcloud.com/blewie17), twitter and more importantly his Bandcamp page I'm finding it hard to get any real back ground on the fella. But as a result it really lets his music do the talking which as far as i can make out seems to be the most important thing in his eyes.
The album in question is the San Francisco based producers recently released (11th March) long player "Science within reason". A 30 track strong master piece in my opinion and unbelievably the dude is unsigned!?
The album is available on his bandcamp page in full quality for a "Make your own offer" price of $3 or more. He has also cracked a 128 kpbs version on a free mediafire link at the bottom of the bandcamp page as well (Trust me when i say you want to buy the full quality version to get the best out of it though).
With the current flo of Jamie Woons and James Blakes this album takes in a similar atmospheric electronic (in his words "Messy Soul") vibe. But i am in no way putting this in the same camp or even wanting to make any similarities between them. This dude packs a lot of soul, and the beats that come through are definitely going to be a sound track to the summer for me.
Anyway, more than enough of my jibber jabber and let the YouTube and bandcamp links below do the talking. Make sure you get on over to his band camp page as well and pick up a (full quality) copy of the album as soon as you can.
