edbl

Producer, beat-maker and multi-instrumentalist edbl (Ed Black) is one of the UK’s most prolific collaborators, having independently released original tracks with over 100 different artists, spotlighting the most exciting up-and-coming UK artists in the scene.

His free-flowing beats have amassed upwards of 130 million streams and have garnered support from BBC Radio 1Xtra’s Jamz Supernova, BBC Radio 2’s Jo Whiley, Jazz FM, BBC 6 Music’s Don Letts, BBC Introducing, Reprezent, Wordplay & Notion Magazines, and a coveted Maida Vale session, as well as a spot on many of your favourite jazz/R&B playlists.

With his roots as a session musician, Ed strives to keep his sound as live as possible. Aside from the drums, everything you hear on a track - from the keys and the guitar to the trumpet - will be live instruments. The result is a free-flowing pool of textured sounds, each collaboration teeming with natural synergy.
