sam gellaitry views the world through palettes of vivid colour. 

a c minor scale becomes purple, plum, and grape. c-sharp minor is cool and blue. night time is best evoked in dark f minor  reds and d minor induces rich forest green.  

his music is a journey through experience, circumstance, and surroundings, told through his impressive, synaesthesia-informed knowledge of different musical tones. for him, song writing and producing has always connected to a process of pairing and contrasting different tones –“using the notes to create different sensations –like tension or relief in your head.”

in practice, this technique has seen him experiment with high-definition club music, crisp hip hop production, dabs of  orchestral instrumentation and  more, via ‘escapism’ –three eps released in the mid to late 2010s that cemented him as one of the most varied and visually strong producers of his generation.
