This trio of British rappers have already got Cross Rhythms airplay and now, having relocated to Vancouver, Canada show they have lost none of their mellow style. A.son and DJ Philamonic have been blessed with the addition of Canadian emcee, abide.n. "Her City" and "Small Triumph", as has become trademark with Souls Rest, are underpinned by a piano as beats, bass and brass polish off the mix. This EP is a laid back, smooth mix with sensitive and soulful lyrics and delivery. Souls Rest have an underground edge that's accessible enough to draw in the casual listener too.
