Seattle-New York musician Ben Zaidi’s music is made for the bedroom. It immediately brings to mind the early work of James Blake or Justin Vernon—minimalist, folk-leaning electronica. But on his recent release, Abandonism, Zaidi collaborated with Seattle producer Budo. Together the two created fleshier, grander sounds that were perfectly positioned for Zaidi’s craggy and haunting voice to unfurl into—"Shambles,” in particular, will make you shiver. The singer-producer will be joined by Washington-based musicians Saint Claire and Claudine Magbag. by Jas Keimig
