Brit-soul stalwart Omar returns with his 8thstudio album in the shape of ‘Love In Beats’ – his first since the superb ‘The Man’ from 2013. Undeniably Omar in flavour the genre straddling vision is in evidence throughout ranging from the spacey, uptempo jazz-soul of ‘Vicky’s Tune’ (featuring Robert Glasper) to lush modern soul gems like ‘Insatiable’ (feat Natasha Watts) the stunning mid tempo dancer ‘Gave My Heart’ (feat Leon Ware) the warped broken-beat future soul of ‘This Way That Way’ and the summery, incognito-esq ‘Hold Me Closer’. The atmosphere filled ‘Grey Clouds’ and the skittering, full production of ‘Destiny’ also excel on a rock solid set. Welcome back, Omar
