Randolph continues to push the boundaries of World Music, fusing artistic experiences of his UK upbringing with those of disparate cultures around the globe, comprising of griot storytelling while he layers live digital loops, pulsating percussive beats, haunting African melodies and delicate maliesque guitar rhythms with a subtle urban Caribbean twist.
