Tom X Wolfe is bringing the heat, rhythm, and soul of summer directly to your speakers. The Gabon-Canadian producer, celebrated for his signature cross-continental and cross-genre mash-ups, debuts with "UNDER THE SUN" a sunny, genre-bending music that personifies his dual continental origins and creative border-crossing tendencies.
Now a BK resident, Tom X Wolfe has a long history of creating strong and catchy dance music, while supporting his roots with the local and global community. It was with the breakout hit "Matrice," co-produced with Afrobeats heavyweight Mr. Eazi for BGMFK's debut album, "2417," that his name gained prominence in Gabon and subsequently across Francophone Africa. That track, released under Universal Music Africa, reinforced his ability to craft catchy club anthems with staying power. "UNDER THE SUN" is where the heat picks back up. From the first few notes, you can tell Tom X Wolfe knows how to create a mood. Seamless afro-fusion meets effervescent electronic layers and punchy percussion that form the track's heartbeat, complemented by a melodic topline that invites the listener into a chilled yet emotionally rich soundscape. There's a memory baked into its warmth, a memory of sun-soaked days and late-night drives, but it's forward-thinking, modern, and infinitely replayable.
The production is taut yet airy, in a trademark Wolfe style that's elegant yet never soulless. He doesn't just make music, he engineers a vibe. Each sound is deliberate, every beat is engineered to make you move, consider, then press repeat.
