Based on the timeless sounds of classic R&B/Soul records from the 1960s and 70s, “Ovragain: Pure Maple, Vol. 1” showcases Wffls’ consummate sample-chopping abilities while also representing a distinct elevation in his talents as a composer and instrumentalist in his own right. Occupying a unique lane within hip-hop, Wffls has crafted a sound that builds on the rich tradition of sample-based hip-hop while setting himself apart from the dime-a-dozen beatmakers crowding “chill lofi beats to study to” playlists. The result is music that feels polished & raw, simple & sophisticated, familiar & sui generis all at the same time.
Known for his production work with artists such as DoNormaal, AJ Suede, Yodi Mac, and Scribemecca, “Ovragain: Pure Maple, Vol. 1” marks Wffls’ first release as a solo artist as well as the inaugural volume in his forthcoming “Pure Maple” album series.
