The Seshen - The Seshen (Full Album Stream)

Toward the end of last year, Bay Area-based band The Seshen caught our ear with their single, “Oblivion,” which felt like an audible journey filled with heavy bass, electronic keys, hi-hats and captivating vocals. Just three months later, the seven-piece group has completed and released their first project. The 11-track LP features “Oblivion,” as well as their other two releases, “Pieces” and “Canvas.” All in all, the album is an impressive debut that sweeps and soars by way of all sorts of instrumentation, production and vocal arrangements. If you want to know what to expect before taking a listen, The Seshen put it best themselves when they stated that their music is a blend of “hip-hop, soul, pop and electronica, producing an original sound that is not bound to any particular genre,” and that it “draws influences from an eclectic range of artists including Little Dragon, J. Dilla, Erykah Badu and Beach House.” Stream the band’s self-titled effort below, and head over to their Bandcamp to purchase it for just $5.
