Forest Law - Forest Law

Rio meets Romford on Forest Law's EP, the Essex-raised, London-based artist's debut on Gilles Peterson's Brownswood label. He was first discovered through Future Bubblers, Peterson's programme for new and unsigned artists, and this release is an assured introduction to the singer and multi-instrumentalist's tight, groove-driven sound.The EP features Esa Williams (Soundway, Rush Hour) on the berimbau on 'Keep an Eye Out', his mentor through Future Bubblers and bandmate in Esa's Afro-Synth Band.A bright, Brazilian-tinted sensibility runs through every track which Forest Law creates. From Hornchurch, Essex, and now based in London, he makes warm, eclectic compositions in his garden shed. He takes groove as his driving force, building outwards in kaleidoscopic directions.
