Since early 2020, the 34-year-old autodidact has been generating a steady stream of homespun solo recordings that forge unprecedented connections between hip-hop abstraction, cosmic skronk, outsider jazz, and staunch post-punk DIY ethos. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater \u0026amp; Tools is a dense, contradictory statement with a blustery surface that shelters a soulful heart. It's generous music, exuding profound vulnerability--grappling with the loss of one his mothers, Lisa--all the while brimming with electric wide-eyed wonder. Almost every one of the nine pieces seems to carry some semblance of a groove, while remaining completely untethered from pulse. At points, there's a timelessness that's conveyed through the music's processional, ritualistic tenor, and yet there's an endless amount of wild, futuristic detail waiting to unspool at any given moment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Telephone Explosion","offers":[{"title":"Black | LP","offer_id":50445968703819,"sku":"2203643","price":34.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/test_71eb24b8_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727050669"}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/collections\/jarius-sharif.oembed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
