Tyler Linkman Introduces Multifaceted Craftsmanship In New Single, ‘Nowhere’

By @AtlehangMoloi on 04/03/2023 in Music
Universal Music signee, Tyler Linkman fuses traditional African jazz and funk, with a psychedelic twist in his new single, ‘Nowhere’.

Speaking on the inspiration and creative process behind ‘Nowhere’ Linkman shares:

“I just love the way bass sounds on a song, especially if it’s an actual bass guitar. Going against the digital mode arch of sampling, we replayed every single instrument from ‘Nights Over Egypt’ by legendary 80s funk band  ‘The Jones Girls’,  giving our sample direction a whole new feel.  I was inspired to make music that can be played live because I feel like it's important to have people consume your music in a different way.

“The more rooted in my knowledge of self I became, the more confident and inspired I was to show people that there is a multifaceted aspect to my artistry outside of what I started to be known for, the melodic rapper.

"‘Nowhere’ reflects my evolution as a musician and the direction I wanted to take in terms of dynamics and lyricism. Simply put, [this song] is one of a mature life of the party groove.”
