For the first Lost and Sound of the year I had the pleasure of chatting with <a href='https://kmru.info'>KMRU</a> aka Joseph Kamaru, one of 2020’s true breakout stars, whose stunning field recordings are helping redefine ambient music.   Last year he released two LPs, a cassette and tons of tracks and reached high up in much of the music press’ end of year lists. We had a chat about his move from Nairobi to Berlin, the influence of his grandfather, the Kenyan legendary cultural activist Joseph Kamaru and how he translates what he hears into emotive, beautiful sound. Enjoy!Lost And Sound, is about meeting music people with real vision and together we delve into the culture that inspires them. New episode every Wednesday.<a href='https://kmru.info/bandcamp'>Listen to KMRU on Bandcamp</a>Title music by <a href='https://www.instagram.com/___e.s.o/'>ESO</a> I hope you enjoy listening!
