Enchanting musical landscapes with Resavoir
Chicago-based producer and composer, Will Miller, releases beautiful genre-bending compositions of modern soul-jazz, indie, and hip-hop under the musical banner Resavoir.
The instrumental arrangements are delivered on layers of airy synth textures and crackling beats, while brass instruments and strings elevate the listener to higher ecstatic realms.
Last year, he released his second self-titled album, shining in all its musical glory. The album is a cohesive and focused presentation of his evolving skills as a studio producer.
It is a subtly brilliant symphony, intertwining modern soul-jazz with bedroom beats and synth serenades. The album features contributions from a number of prominent musicians including Elton Aura, Whitney, Akenya, Matt Gold, Jeremy Cunningham, and Lane Beckstrom, who have helped create the expansive work.
In 2019, he released his debut album, which received glowing reviews and an impressive 8.2 rating from Pitchfork, who wrote:
"The Chicago trumpeter with hip-hop and indie-rock bona fides steps out as a bandleader, shepherding 18 musicians across a complex, soulful album that celebrates interconnectedness."
As a longtime member of the indie band Whitney and collaborations with hip-hop artists such as Mac Miller, ASAP Rocky, Chance The Rapper, Lil Wayne, and SZA over the years, Miller has skillfully connected the two genres with his own songs.
The Resavoir project allowed Miller to bring these experiences into his own work and to create a sound that is dexterous yet deep, compositionally complex yet finely-tuned to the emotions that color life's quieter moments.
