The 2015 EP Merlot Sounds from Obey City finds the Brooklyn-based producer and multi-instrumentalist exploring a lush intersection of electronic and hip-hop. Released on LuckyMe, this project showcases Sam Obey’s distinct ability to craft soulful, genre-blurring soundscapes, with nods to classic Soulquarians, Quincy Jones, and the Neptunes.
Merlot Sounds is elevated by a series of exciting collaborations, including vocal appearances from Kelela, 1OAK, Eric Arc Elliot (Flatbush Zombies), and Anthony Flammia, whose work on “Waterbed” stands as a highlight of the EP. Obey City’s rich synth textures and refined songwriting make this a standout release for fans of forward-thinking R&B and dance music alike.
