2009, Rapster
NY based Rraj Haldar, multi-talented producer and beatsmith, had 13 years of classical piano training and seven years in jazz drumming before making the move into hip hop under the moniker Lushlife.
After garnering much attention (not to mention over two million downloads) from his Dangermouse-esque mashup of Kanye West's "College Dropout" with the Beach Boys' "Pet Sounds," and doing remixes for heavy-hitters like Slum Village, Lush is now dropping hotly anticipated new album Cassette City.
Jazzy beats reminiscent of Nas in his prime meets early Four Tet and Prefuse 73, downtempo eclecticism and lush electronica. Haldar provides the bulk of the vocals with guest features from Camp Lo, Ariel Pink and Ezra from Vampire Weekend.
