Биография

Canadian singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer FTRSL [*pronounced FutureSoul] is a multi-talented wunderkind creating vocal and song-based indie electronica sporting soulful and pop nuances, strong melodies and undeniable hooks. It’s our soul music for a better tomorrow. With influences which span electronica, pop, alternative, hip-hop and R&B, FTRSL is equal parts for the dance floor and your headphones. There’s a strident emphasis on creating productions and songs that deliver not only a solid vocal performance but are also geekily interesting to the ear. FTRSL manage to recapturing the listener with each play from both a song arrangement and sonic perspective. The subtleties and textures are disctinct. He provides a peak into his creative process, “ I usually always start with an instrumental idea prior to writing lyrics. I'll find or write out a chord progression, map out drums and percussion then build a sample melody around the progression. Everything else tends to come afterwards. I start improvising melodies or start with a sample. When I write lyrics, it's usually all written on the fly and then structured accordingly to the nature of the song. I'm all for groove and a catchy hook that can stand out on it's own. Without it I'll feel restless.”
