Upon popular request, TDR presents the instrumentals and re-edits of Tensei's uplifting 'Constellate' release.
Tensei (meaning "Heaven Star" in Japanese) is the Chicago based producer tandem of Midas Wells and Chris Kramer. The music is a soulful, electronic and jazz infused vibration produced through a hip hop lens. Many of the tandem's friends including Makaya McCraven, Brandee Younger, Greg Spero, Junius Paul, Khari Lemuel, Kevin Mitchell and Paul Curtis joined in the sessions to add extra flavor on top of Tensei's already lush production.
The vocal versions of the songs are also available via Tokyo Dawn, featuring Jimetta Rose, Yaw, Sam Trump, Sulaiman, A. Billi Free, Kiara Lanier, ADaD and Liv Warfield from Prince's New Power Generation.
