Ever since he released his debut album, Rasaking, L.A.X has been more brazen with his releases, experimenting with sounds and cultures. His last release, Sign Si was an avant-garde blend of 80s pop magic and Afrobeats. This month, he returns with a jazzed up acoustic mix titled Body.
On the Quebeats produced single, L.A.X plays with smooth saxophone sounds and a litany of percussion instruments ruled by bass drums that give life to his sensual narrative. From start to finish of Body, L.A.X displays a kind of comprehension for his sound that we’ve never witnessed – evidenced in an audible cadence in his delivery and his use of instruments that are in sync with his vocals and narrative.
