Recently on my search for new music I came across a new EP and I had to share it with you all, 'Days In A Triangle' by Kyan.
I did a little digging around about Kyan and discovered that Kyan is from Cambridge and already has a record deal with Virgin EMI.
What I liked about him is he seems to fuse a distinctly British sensibility to soul, funk hip-hop and jazz. It's not your typical British sound, he offers us something different.
Kyan’s R&B touch alongside his smooth vocal performance kind of made me think of American artist such as Frank Ocean and John Legend, don’t ask me why, they just did okay .
On his single ‘Taking The City’: he turns over a casino and gives his winnings to the poor, mixing a little Oceans 11 with a sprinkle of Robin Hood . But the track also serves as a form of social commentary on capitalism and the struggles of the average man.
The EP could be the soundtrack to some badass card-counter in ‘Hustle’ or heist flick ‘21', which apparently inspired it. The EP's other standout song ‘Cold Friend’, blends modern soul with an historical tale not entirely unlike Frank’s ‘Pyramids.
In my opinion I feel like Kyan’s still finding his own voice, but there’s enough here to suggest he might one day break the bank for real ; but legally of course.
