SceneStar Interview: Shigeto

SceneStar Interview: Shigeto

Shigeto‘s shades of cool, melodic, instrumental hip-hop are a welcome respite from four-to-the-floor. His latest album, Lineage, is yet another solid-gold LP from Ann Arbor’ Ghostly International. Missing from Lineage is the drum-machining maximalism present in his debut, Full Circle, replaced instead with a kind of liquifying blend of dare-I-say jazzy IDM (gasp!) that could only be created by a producer brought up on a steady diet of jazz and Motown. Learn more about Shigeto’s sound and inspiration in SceneStars interview above and check out the rest of Shigeto’s catalog here.
