British producer and vocalist Obaro Ejimiwe, better known as Ghostpoet, has dropped the first video from his upcoming second album.
The track, ‘Meltdown’, comes accompanied by a suitably nocturnal night bus narrative, and a haunting guest female vocal from Woodpecker Wooliams. It follows on from free download, ‘MSI MUSMID’, reportedly penned in honour of a dream involving befriending dim sum and noodles, and first premiered on Gilles Peterson’s BBC 6Music show.
Both tracks are taken from Ejimiwe’s upcoming sophomore effort, entitled Some Say I So I Say Light, due to be released 6 May through PIAS. The record was co-produced by Richard Formby, and follows Ghostpoet’s Mercury nominated debut, Peanut Butter Blues and Melancholy Jam.
Stream the new vid below, as well as feasting your eyes on the neon glow of the album’s cover.
