Kindness, Starchild & the New Romantic
Kindness is a one-man British band brainstormed into being by Adam Bainbridge. He makes literate dance music that flits around funk, house, and R&B with understated polish. Kindness' tracks would segue well with those by Hot Chip and Toro y Moi, and his singing is similarly unflamboyant, hovering in the lower registers of Arthur Russell and Vini Reilly.
