VILLEM
Med School has a new junior surgeon in its ranks and he is causing quite a stir. A young talent originally from Ipswich, Villem aka Andrew Wilson is now based in Bristol. His sound combines a piano composition background and with deeper soul vibes, reaching out to the slightly darker end of the drum and bass spectrum.
Villem’s debut release on the Med School label is the EP ‘Shimmer’, a six track collective featuring collaborations with his brother Fields, alongside Mako. The vibes are slightly trippy beats with progressive drums and soft hints of vocals. ‘Azura’ is a particular highlight; smooth, languid and super chilled. Alongside Medic30, he also features on a compilation by Symettry with 'Ascent.' This combines both Mako and Fields and is a harsher, funkier sound with plenty of bass to go round. Hype, London Elektricity and Bailey amongst others are already predicting big things for this producer, check him out for yourself!
