San Francisco’s own Karmacoda has just dropped their latest single, “Dreaming”, on June 7th, 2024 via Sola Musa Music. This track is the first taste of their forthcoming album, You and I, set to be released on July 26th, 2024. This trio, comprised of the sultry Jessica Ford, the multifaceted Brett Crockett aka B., and the innovative Eric Matsuno, has carved a unique space in the music world with their genre-defying sound.
Karmacoda’s journey through electronica, chill, trip-hop, R&B, rock, and dream pop over the past two decades is a true inspiration for fellow musicians. Their latest evolution sees them blend soulful R&B with the sophistication of jazz lounge, echoing the emotive depth of Adele, the atmospheric allure of Lana Del Rey, and the pioneering spirit of Massive Attack.
The trio has been praised for their refined production and evocative songwriting. “Dreaming” exemplifies this, with its atmospheric synths, lush yet minimal R&B percussion, and soul-stirring chords. Jessica and B. deliver a heartfelt duet that transports listeners through a dreamy voyage of love and nostalgia.
Jessica explains, “I wrote the lyrics and melodies to B.’s track, and a duet just flowed out of me. I could hear his amazing voice walking us through, where everything you see, smell, or hear reminds you of that special someone…[…] When you are taken back to that time, that emotion… where all you can think about is… it was so good.. ‘I’m Dreaming of You.’ You can see the images in your mind of the story unfolding, I love songs like that.”
Immerse yourself in the enchanting sounds of ‘Dreaming’ and get ready for the full experience with You and I this summer.
