Anomalie (aka Nicolas Dupuis. a producer and a classically trained keyboardist hailing from Montreal) has released his lead single “ Velours ”, off his new “ Métropole ” EP.
With tracks infused with a combination of classical music, jazz, hip hop, funk, fusion and various electronic elements, it is beautifully constructed and a perfect example of how Anomalie’s singular style became even more refined over the years.
The track is still smooth, jazzy, and has an unmistakable hip hop beat, but it’s also a lesson in how to achieve more with less. The backbone of composition is a gloriously syncopated groove that gives “Velours” a truly unique characteristic and it’s this foundation that Anomalie’s masterful keyboard strokes are then layered on top of. It feels dynamic, despite the fact it is a slower jam not dependent on the unexpected arrangements that Nicolas became known for earlier on. It’s just velvety and smooth like an evening summer breeze in the city.
