“Plain” is the lead single from longtime favorite of the site Jesse Boykins III’s upcoming new Love Apparatus LP. Produced by Machinedrum, “Plain” walks (while still immensely soulful) a decidedly dance-driven lane; a style that Boykins has dabbled with ably in the past. Here, Boykins’s syrupy fluid full-toned vocal does a nice juxtaposition against Machinedrum’s compact almost wholly-self contained instrumental. Love Apparatus is out April 22.
