Mike Sylk - A Lo-fi Christmas Collection - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Amos Larkins proudly presents The incredible talent of Mike Sylk (Born Eric Tran in May of 2000), a brilliant horn player with a heartwarming story and a sound unlike any other. Born in Baguio, Philippines, and raised in the heartland of West Des Moines, Iowa, Mike Sylk mastered not just one but a range of brass instruments trumpet, trombone, flugel horn, and saxophone. His musical journey led him from the quiet neighborhoods of Iowa to the lively streets of Miami's Brickell district, where he made his mark playing for change amidst the bustling nightlife. One evening, on a casual dinner outing with his girlfriend, music producer Amos Larkins heard a powerful trumpet sound rising above the city's ambiance. Drawn to this unexpected music, he traced the melody to a street corner, where he found Mike (known to locals as InchAmazing MikeInch) playing with a passion and skill that transformed the space around him. Larkins was immediately captivated by his sound and saw in Mike a rare, untapped potential. From that night forward, a friendship and collaboration blossomed. Amos invited Mike into the studio, persuading him to record his first album, which showcases his unique style - a blend of jazz-infused Christmas classics with the atmospheric beats of lofi. The result is A Christmas Collection, a 12-track masterpiece that reinvents holiday music with warmth, originality, and the unmistakable soul of the streets. Each song in this collection carries Mike's signature sound, infusing beloved Christmas classics with modern lofi rhythms, mellow beats, and soulful horn lines that make each track an experience. From timeless melodies to innovative grooves, Mike Sylk's A Lo-fi Christmas Collection is a refreshing, authentic take on the season, crafted by an artist with roots both humble and rich.
