Benny Sings: City Pop (Colored Vinyl) Vinyl LP
Benny Singsā Stones Throw Debut! Tim van Berkestijn, aka Benny Sings, achieved US popularity over the last decade with a string of collaborations with Mayer Hawthorne, Rex Orange County, and Mac Demarco, as well as a few sync placements on HBO and Netflix. True to its name, his seventh record City Pop is a collection of largely autobiographical songs recorded by the prolific Dutch pop artist across NYC, LA, Tokyo, Paris, and his studio in Amsterdam. Much like the actual Japanese genre of city pop, the record draws on its fair share of ā70s yacht rock and AOR tropes, but Benny Sings sets it apart with his signature ā90s hip-hop inspired grooves tossed in. Stand-out tracks include the lead single āNot Enoughā and āSoftly (Tokyo),ā which features the influential Japanese musician and producer Cornelius. 11 tracks on baby blue vinyl.
