LP version. Blackest Ever Black presents Sleep Heavy, the debut album of broken-hearted, downtempo R&B/street-soul and supremely atmospheric, introspective electronics from Jabu: a trio comprised of vocalist/lyricists Alex Rendall and Jasmine Butt, and producer Amos Childs. The group was born out of Bristol's Young Echo collective: an ecosystem unto itself which has birthed and nurtured a number of other notable soundsystem-rooted projects and artists to date, including Kahn & Neek, Sam Kidel, Ishan Sound, Ossia, Asda, Chester Giles, and Killing Sound (Childs with Kidel and Vessel). Jabu's previous 7" singles, though arresting, barely hinted at the level of accomplishment and emotional heft that Sleep Heavy delivers. It's a future Bristol classic with a universal resonance, with songs that are highly personal but deeply relatable, and a tripped-out, time-dissolving sound design that both haunts and consoles. It is, first and foremost, a meditation on grief, loss, making sense of separation, and death; but it also looks forward to what might come after the aftermath: healing, acceptance, the chance to begin again. Childs is one of the most gifted producers of his generation and his work here, grounded in hip-hop but floating free, is a thing of sustained wonder: crepuscular, melancholic, subtly psychedelic, and heavily dubwise, but always concise and purposeful. Stitched together from deep-dug and beautifully repurposed samples, it draws on influences from US R&B to Japanese art-pop minimalism - Mariah to Mariah Carey, if you will - and a rich seam of underground UK soul, boogie, DIY/post-punk, library music, and lovers rock. There is also of course a distant connection to the Bristol blues of Smith & Mighty and the sultry urban gothic of Protection-era Massive Attack (1994), but Jabu's orchestration of womb-like ambiences, cold synth tones, and brittle beats feel entirely sui generis. They provide the perfect setting for Rendall's wounded, imploring and carefully weighted vocals, which are no less extraordinary: nodding to giants like Teddy Pendergrass and The Temptations in terms of phrasing and front-and-center vulnerability, with something of The Associates' Billy MacKenzie in there too; defeated but defiant. Meanwhile, Jas's heavenly interventions, sometimes leading but more often parsed and layered into tremulous, gossamer abstraction, draw a line between the Catholic choral harmonies of her childhood and the ethereal, oceanic sweep of Cocteau Twins. By it's end, Sleep Heavy's world-weariness is intact and scarcely diminished, but some light has been admitted, and is visible from the sea-floor.

Very impressed
Size: 3.38 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Really impressed by this serum! Got this to soothe my skin after overdoing it with too many different “actives”, and it gently and quickly got rid of redness and flaking, restored my skin barrier, and left my skin so moisturized and supple that I didn’t even feel like I needed lotion or cream afterwards. And it’s a GENEROUSLY sized glass bottle, too! I will definitely be trying other products from this brand!

Best skincare product ever
Size: 3.38 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This ampoule is THE BEST THING EVER. I’ve been in the skincare industry since 1996 and I’ve never used a product that works as well as this. I have sensitive oily skin and it has a lot of redness. After the first use the redness was completely gone and the hydration was noticeable. Do not pass on this stuff! Highly recommend it for anyone wanting immediate hydration. It’s thin and isn’t sticky or tacky. It feels like I don’t have anything on my face but the benefits are definitely noticeable.

Good product, but requires consistent use
Size: 1.85 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 1.85 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this centella ampoule for a while now, and overall I like it. The texture is lightweight, absorbs quickly, and leaves the skin feeling hydrated and soothed. It’s especially nice for sensitive or irritated skin. However, one important thing to note is that the results are not immediate. In my experience, you start seeing improvements with consistent, long-term use rather than overnight. If you’re patient and use it daily, it can definitely help improve your skin’s appearance. Overall, it’s a good product, but it requires consistency to see full results.

Keeping this in my skincare regimen for the long-haul
Size: 3.38 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
No matter what skin type you are, you should have this in your lineup. I have larger pores - so sebaceous filaments & clogging. On top of the oiliness of my skin, I have more oily hair as well. But, I get dry patches like crazy. So it’s not easy to find products that meet all of my needs or are universal - it’s usually an “either or” situation. & I end up buying things for my drier days as well as products for my oily days instead of just one set of products. This is one that work well no matter what. There’s more than you’d expect based on the photos - the bottle is bigger. A little goes a long way. It’s very gentle. Great for barrier repair. Great for redness/irritation. A little goes a long way, but it can also be used more than once without being overwhelming. It’s great as a base for other serums/moisturizers, morning or night. It feels really good - clean & light (but not “light” as in ineffective, it still pulls its weight). Must have for anyone looking for trendy Korean glass-skin skincare - she’s one that will get you there without needing to invest in random “viral” products.

LOVEE (combo & oily skin) 🥹
Size: 3.38 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Pretty good! I loveee the applicator since it makes it really easy to apply. My skin has been super glowy ever since I’ve used this. Consistency is super thin and lightweight. My skin doesn’t exactly feel soft but looks really smooth. Despite it being this way, it hydrates super well!
