“My first studio album ‘Laconia’ gave me the freedom to try different genres and styles. This has partially pushed me to my limits, but above all, I have been able to learn a lot, also for further productions. Each song tells a little story that was mainly inspired by the different places of my travels because I like to capture ideas on the go and put them into practice in the studio.” Sam Shure.

With its versatile moods yet compact constructions, ‘Laconia’ is a self-fulfilling prophecy. The album features ten tracks that draw on Sam’s jazzy Egyptian roots while staying grounded in his usual melodic, mood-heavy aesthetic. With its warm tones, hazy pads and smart basslines, it creates a perfect ambiance for deep set dancefloors.

‘Laconia’ features collaborations with fellow producers Cioz and Cook Strummer, as well as a special apparition by Sam’s paternal figure Basem Darwisch playing the oud on ‘Mirage’.

We are presenting eight track, more experimental self-evident ‘Not Much To Say’.

‘Laconia’ will be available after the 20th of September HERE.
