The Soundtrack

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

All Kelelaholics, new and converted, gathered for an intimate performance that moved from deep cuts like Waitin to more recent irresistibles like Contact. And honestly? The only way to sum it up is a “falling roller-coaster rush.” A treat to see her grace the stage and tease (I know I heard right?) a new project is somewhere in the pipeline. Looking forward to hearing jazz get hypnotized by velvet-edged vocals, electronic beats and poetic lyricism.

Strongroom Studios (@strongroom.studios ) : where UK music history didn’t just happen, it echoes through the walls.

The same rooms that birthed The Prodigy’s “Firestarter” (Charlie’s Angels fans know the scene), Spice Girls’ “Wannabe” (girl power canon), Jamiroquai’s world-building funk, The Kooks’ serotonin hit “Naive”, Sophie Ellis Bextor’s “Murder on the Dancefloor” (Saltburn revival included), and Craig David’s ‘7 Days’ loverboy era smoothness.

Beyond the credits, Strongroom is a whole ethos: Dalkan boards, rooms built for creative chaos, Jamie Reid art on the walls (tres psychedelic), and engineers who treat album making as a conceptual journey. A place where an artist might book an extra studio just to paint between takes.

And beyond the studios, Strongroom is also a cultural hub, with a bar and an event space that hosts everything from established and emerging or underground musicians and bands to live podcast recordings. They even hosted SXSW in London last year, cementing their role as a creative crossroads for the city.

Last weekend I had the pleasure of taking a seat at the michelinman’s dinner party, an experience that was sensory mastery at its finest. The menu, curated by Maison Sun (@maisonsun.nyc ), unfolded like a crescendo of culture and taste, each dish echoing the mood of tracks on Blvck Svm’s (@blvcksvm ) album “michelinman”. Truly virtuosos of flavor, @dr._gasperi dr._gasperi and @young_bread1126 you deserve another round of applause. The project itself, with its rich lexicon layered over jazzy, subdued instrumentals, deploys the language of fine dining as narrative scaffolding, metaphor, and seasoning, sampling chefs and sly nods to food-centric cinema along the way (NB:“hyogo” (track 8) has been a favorite of mine since 2023, and it was a thrill to see it re-released).

As for the wine - to borrow from Blvck Svm’s immaculate lyricism - I was blessed the sommelier brought pairings such that it’s a wonder I didn’t bring a bottle back to my crib.

Finally, the vibe. It felt like a meeting of diverse minds, more akin to Kyoto teahouses and Tokyo jazz kissaten: intimate spaces where artistry, dialogue, and atmosphere flow together as seamlessly as the music and the meal.

Blvck Svm has taken the symbolic, aspirational, and multilayered dimensions of food and shaped them into what he calls a “tasting menu of an album”. The listening-party-meets-supper-club format is still winding its way stateside, but who knows where it will go next: Europe? Africa? Stay tuned.
