Why do we like this?
Ladi6 makes music that sits right on the fence between electronic and soul -- covering similar ground to Bonobo and Flying Lotus' work with Andreya Triana.

Her new track, "Ikarus," features deep, soulful vocals that recall the 90s neo-soul explosion, but they're placed over a beat that sounds decidedly more modern.

It marks an experimental turn for the New Zealander, but one that looks like reaping rewards if her upcoming third album carries on in this tone. Enjoy!
