The latest Bradford act to excite us is one man band Fist Bumps. The man behind the mask is Lanre Bakare, a talented young lad who has studied academic courses across the country and has now returned to his home city. He has his own blog Domestic Dust as well as writing online articles for Vice and The Guardian.Lanre describes Fist Bump's music as "Lazer Bass, Future Blap, Sub Low or wtf you want to call it." His laid back, lo-fi, squelch-noise takes influences from Portishead, The Knife, Wu Tang Clan and fellow Bradfordian TS7. Its not quite Bassline and not quite Postal Service but its quite ace. Fist Bump's debut show is at Good Form Club's Christmas party @ The Beehive on 20th December. More details to follow!
