Strong grooves and the contemporary fusion of organic guitar and electronic trap rhythms – Xistential keeps things relevant yet fresh with a melodic and dreamy Heartbreaker.
Four original tracks make up The Comeback EP, showcasing the voice of Dapro – in tone and intention – with a strong sense of character and influence in modern hip hop.

Pianist and songwriter Marshall Oakman celebrates the female half of the population with a colourful pop-rock anthem of timeless presence and topical optimism.
The latter half is sensational, superb production lights up the room, leaving you in a celebration of optimism that’s broadly juxtaposed by the insult and unsettling self-awareness of the lyric.
Beautifully peaceful, breathy and calming, inspiring a sense of possibility in times of struggle – talking openly on depression in a relatable, powerful way.
West Ingston keeps things musically fresh and conceptually pure, as a poetic and moving Bone Apple Tea relays the ache of toxicity in love.
