Producer/musician extraordinaire Brady Watt teams up with vocal powerhouse Melanie Fiona on the second single release (“Natural”) off Watt’s self-produced/curated compilation album LIFETRONICS. The track is driven by Watt’s distinct brand of organic, but hard-hitting soul-dripping production and laced with vocal harmonies of the one and only GRAMMY-winning Fiona.
The entire album was recorded in his Harlem brownstone. “Throughout the day musicians and artist friends of mine will come through to kick it and contribute if the timing is right. The recordings happened naturally the only task was making the stuff into a body of work. Also making sure I didn’t give all my beats away,” Brady laughs.

“Watt’s production – sculpted from live instrumentation and a propensity for gritty drum tracks that swing with the best of them – is loaded with the type of raw musicianship and unfettered musical ambition that legends are made of. And when his self-curated and produced LIFETRONICS LP hit shelves next year on February 12th, that’s precisely how we’ll all be regarding him.” – Zo, Okayplayer.
