Riding Free

Frasier Banks

Dyne Road Recordings

WE SAY

With a rather fruity, potty-mouthed "I don't give a f**k" motif running right from the start and throughout the track, this cool and soulful sound comes from Frasier Banks, a talented newcomer raised in the valleys of South Wales who headed for London to immerse himself in the capital's urban pop scene. There's no mistake that the icy, minimalist, stripped-back production instantly cuts through and catches your ear. It's just one of the songs that features on the debut EP from a brand new record label which launches next week. Dyne Road Recordings is exclusively run by and on behalf of the students of the Institute of Contemporary Music Performance in Kilburn. Frasier is one of the four acts on there (along with VICE Collective, Naomi Shalom and Joseph), all contrasting in their styles and approach to music. We applaud the initiative, enthusiasm, drive and passion of the young talented students at The Institute in putting this project together and are delighted to be able to support the label, now bringing it to much-deserved wider attention across the industry worldwide.
