New Gen
New Gen
For nine months, the New Gen Studio became a creative hub for London’s most promising musicians. It was a space for MCs and songwriters, mixers and engineers to contribute to the New Gen vision. The likes of 67, Stormzy, Ray BLK, AJ Tracey, Nines and Avelino all dropped in and out, recording and writing music, flitting between sessions, working closely with the in house production team, with Caroline herself, with Renz the executive producer. The melee of talent continued working away arm in arm under one roof, carving a project comprised entirely of original music. It’s anchored in the half space between trap, grime and new wave R&B, the melting pot which has typically come to represent the New Gen sound. And so, with a purpose to define a generation, the New Gen release an album. For the artists and producers, mixers and long-time supporters, the project time stamps a special chapter in British music, tying the strands of the New Gen movement into one cohesive body of work. Meaning that those new to the sound, new to the radio and the shows, will be served with the most fitting introduction into a movement that has swept the capital over the past year, one that will surely define the years to come.
