Kwesi Sey, known as kwes. is a producer, composer and artist who has worked with the likes of Solange, Loyle Carner, Sampha, Tirzah, Damon Albarn, Kelela, Nubya Garcia, Hudson Mohawke, NAO, Selah Sue, Lil Silva and more.

Following from his score for the short Netflix documentary Little Miss Sumo, kwes. scored his first feature film Rye Lane. The film premiered at Sundance 2023 to glowing reviews, and the soundtrack is set for physical release on limited edition violet coloured vinyl via Warp Records.

"When it came to creating the score, I was particularly heavily leaning into the vibrant colour of the picture, the primarily fast, but differing paces of the film and script as a whole and of course South London where it’s set. Was also thinking about late teenagehood/early adulthood and all its awkwardness and intensity of emotions. So it’s heavily syncopated in a lot of places, ramshackle but luxurious in texture. But then in parts it’s also very ethereal, detuned and dreamlike, particularly in moments where the bond between Yas and Dom starts to grow and grow. I’d describe the score overall like sour Fruit Pastilles or Haribo Tangfastics. Sweet, but not too sweet." – kwes.
