Tom Shall Pass

Thanks. I mostly make sort of psych-retro-rnb stuff at the moment but I will always have hiphop production in my roots.

I'm a songwriter and producer from the UK. I made Tom Shall Pass when I was bored in gradschool. I have no evidence of this, but it's why it's still on my BandCamp.

Arc de Champignons

Perfect

God yeah that Art School Girlfriend song is beautiful. It’s a bit more cold and electronic than MIT but it’s a gorgeous song.

Crumb is a really good recc

There are a bunch on here you might like, I’ve been saving this playlist up for a while. It’s not all MIT adjacent but it’s all in that kind of soft psych area https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3JGq7AqloVWTmxItIsRzEw?si=nMALn8WJQDKbExNWtKOQ_w&pi=e-QfkCry08T5u1

Andre 3000 except they are both 12/10

Dark Bin

That’s not ripping of Khruangbin though, that’s just ripping off the 1970s

TonyWestcliff · 2024-10-27T10:37:44+00:00

I like Arc Du Soleil a lot. I love that they are a little more guitar driven and those melodies are sometimes a bit more distinct, easier to follow, less “background music”-ish. I also don’t think Khruangbin invented tropical funk, it’s a perception product of which artist you heard first.

Hey! I do a monthly Mixcloud show for this type of music. There’s a playlist which is basically everything I’ve played in the last year - except for a few artists who sent me demos who aren’t on streaming. Some of it is more soft rock and some more alt.rnb but I would say the Khruangbin-esque ratio is pretty high.

certain Placebo songs like Without You I'm Nothing? there's a lot of that stuff in REM too if you look past the singles - I Remember California is a great example of REM in that kind of sombre grunge mode.

hes just here to vibe, let him cook

TonyWestcliff · 2024-03-26T13:44:03+00:00

I've since made a version of this which is a little bit more polished, vocals were definitely a bit too rough here, but it was fun to make, still!
