The 2nd album from Alex Crossan AKA Mura Masa featuring guest performances by Clairo, Slowthai, Tirzah, Georgia and Ellie Rowsell from Wolf Alice. ‘R.Y.C’ (or ‘Raw Youth Collage’ ) is an ambitious and exciting left-turn from an artist and producer whose ability to always surprise is matched only by his remarkably consistent, singular vision. Breathing new life into amongst other things –New Wave, Emo, Folk and 90s Rave – tracks like ‘No Hope Generation’ reinvent Mura Masa’s sound whilst also paying tribute to the alternative roots which shaped him when he first became a genuine musical outsider, growing up in the remote island of Guernsey. And it’s this fondness for the music of adolescence – reworked in thoroughly modern, bedroom-pop fashion – that became an analogue for the theme of the album as a whole.
