“I had to learn to get out of my own way,” says Matthew James Brewer, the British songwriter and producer known as Frameworks. His new LP, *Reflections*, is a meditative exploration that captures moments as they arise, featuring a lean sound of driving beats, analog synthesizers, and intimate production.

A Manchester native, Brewer gained recognition with his 2015 debut, *Tides*, which showcased his cinematic blend of instrumental hip-hop and downtempo house. Since then, he’s released two more albums, performed at major festivals like Coachella and Electric Forest, and collaborated with artists such as Jono McCleery and JP Cooper. With millions of streams to his name, Frameworks continues to resonate deeply with audiences around the world.
