Welcome to the Winter

RAYE

A hazy, self-produced debut EP of winter-themed R&B. Submerged synths and intimate vocals capture the quiet isolation of young adulthood in London.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transition from the atmospheric field recordings of Birdsong into the pulsing bass of Bet U Wish.
The way the vocals on Hotbox feel like they are being whispered directly into your ear over a slow-burning beat.
The skeletal, guitar-flecked production on Bad Faith that highlights the raw vulnerability of her teenage songwriting.
