Leifur James, an innovative electronic music producer, returns with his third album, “Magic Seeds”. The record represents his most personal and collaborative work and blends live recordings and analogue synths to create an organic, rhythmic sound reminiscent of trip-hop and hip-hop.
“Magic Seeds” explores themes of growth and reconnection, featuring unexpected musical moments and influences from 90s electronic music to neoclassical. Tracks like “Smoke in the Air” and “Inner Child” highlight his ability to balance emotional peaks with deep, moody atmospheres. The albums dynamic range and authenticity reflect James’s commitment to musical freedom and societal reflection, making it a compelling sonic collage of his recent experiences.
Over the past few years, Leifur James has steadily built a reputation as a vital new voice in electronic music on both sides of the Atlantic. Hes played prestigious London venues like the Barbican and Village Underground in London and toured Europe, as well as being named Pitchfork and KCRWs best new music in the US, and his music has been championed by the likes of tastemakers Gilles Peterson, Mary Anne Hobbs, Bradley Zero and actor Cillian Murphy, and from BBC 6Music to NTS via KCRW and RMC Italia. James has also enjoyed further flagship press support from Consequence of Sound, Clash, CRACK, Passion of the Weiss, XLR8R, Complex, MixMag, DJ Mag, The Vinyl Factory, and more.
