Release show for Houis' debut album, "Outgrown", with support from Sean Hannon and D3SIGNER.DR3AMS.

Houis (pronounced "weece*) is a French-American producer based in
NYC. Influenced by artists such as Bonobo and Tom Misch, his distinct R&B lofi sound has evolved to include elements of a newer indie/house aesthetic.
As both a visual and sound artist, Houis displays a dexterity between visual aesthetics and his music which alludes to a wide range of ever-evolving skill.
His debut album "Outgrown" perfectly depicts the full range of his musical convictions, from UK inspired lo-fi instrumentals, 80' leaning indie-pop Open & Repeat w. Emmett Kai, to soulful offerings with international guest features such as Daydreamin' w. Blush'ko.

Sean Hannon is a Brooklyn-based bassist and composer who is inspired by visual and musical imagery. He draws from a range of musical/compositional influences from Ravel and Satie, to Miles Davis and Charlie Haden, to the more contemporary music of Justin Vernon and Radiohead; as well as non-musical influences such the visual art of impressionist painters, existentialist writings of Kafka, and sounds of the natural world.
In his own compositions, he attempts to provoke the imagery of different landscapes and environments as well as articulate the emotions that could be associated with these certain settings. The ending result is a synthesis of visual imagery and emotion expressed through musical composition and improvisation.

Aaron [D3signer.Dr3ams] is a hip-hop beatmaker hailing proudly from Shaolin, NYC. Growing up listening strictly to local R&B / Jazz / Soul radio stations, he fell in love with Hip-Hop in his adolescent years, through recognizing the familiar music it was sampled from. Inspired by the likes of 9th Wonder, STLNDRMS, MF DOOM, Cookin Soul, and others, he got his first hardware sampler (the ubiquitous Roland SP-404SX) and has collected many vinyl records and samplers since, making hip-hop beats the old-fashioned way. You can find his music for free on Bandcamp and Instagram, often paired with 90's era visuals. Aaron takes great pleasure in using hip-hop to learn more about-and greater appreciate-all forms of music.
