Oregon producer Calvin Valentine makes his Mello Music debut, with 20-track beat album, Plush Seats, executive produced by Michael Tolle.
Featuring hit single, “Glen Robinson” the project heralds Valentine’s arrival as one of the most formidable and versatile producers of his generation.
Plush Seats follows Home, a gorgeous record that Valentine produced entirely for Illa J (brother of the late immortal, James Yancey). Previous album Eugene, a full-length gumbo of celestial R&B, pop, and hip-hop that would you leave you rightfully believing that Valentine grew up eating Coney dogs in Detroit, rather than the bucolic countryside of Eugene, Oregon.
With Plush Seats, the future is now. It’s a work of supreme virtuosity, a stoned immaculate saga ideal for blunt cruises, impromptu cyphers, and meditative late night head nods. Plush Seats is nothing but strong ideas and a smooth ride. Grimy but opulent. Smoked out but clear-headed. A vibe like no other.
