Jinjé, also known as Lee J Malcolm (formerly of Vessels), brings a rich musical history with extensive support from Radio 1, 6Music, and international platforms like XLR8TR. His productions have earned accolades from tastemakers like Jon Hopkins, Max Cooper, and nd_baumecker, with tracks featured in sets at iconic venues like Panorama Bar at Berghain. Releases on esteemed labels such as Mesh and Earthly Measures showcase Jinjé’s ability to blend acoustic and electronic elements seamlessly, creating lush, innovative soundscapes.

Born from Jinjé’s passion for live drumming and global rhythms, A Brief Utopia is a vibrant, high-energy live project. The ensemble—featuring Danny Templeman (Submotion Orchestra), Nathan Moseley, Gustavo Andrade, Caroline Webb, and Otis Jones—delivers an immersive, colorful experience. Anchored by live percussion, modular synths, and instruments like the Balafon, their music draws inspiration from Fela Kuti, Steve Reich, and global field recordings.

Recent highlights include a live session at FeelGoodStudios and the release of the LP We Invisible, combining Moroccan frame drums, distorted marimbas, and field recordings with uplifting rhythms and psychedelic synth work. Whether in clubs or festivals, Jinjé & A Brief Utopia craft a transcendent sonic journey, intertwining acoustic and electronic worlds with infectious energy.
