YEHAIYAHAN x Jay.Soul
Shanghai x Amsterdam
AM444 is a music duo conceived in Shanghai by Chinese underground star singer @yehaiyahan (Kode9/Spaceape, Jimi Tenor, The Bug, RSD, RBMA'11 etc) and Dutch producer/musician/dj @jay-soul (Justo the Mc, Mr.Windmill, Corey, NineFifty, etc).
S O U N D S L I K E ?
AM444 sounds like Sevdaliza's Chinese niece hanging out with the Dutch step brother of J Dilla, or Little Dragon and Kaytranada going on a nocturnal boat ride while Facetiming with FKA Twigs.
YEHAIYAHAN's moody and dreamy vocals in Mandarin, delivered with tons of heartfelt emotion, crossbreed effortlessly with Jay.Soul's jazzy hip-hop, funk, and electronica infused beats.
AM444's music is eclectic and increasingly hard to classify, but strangely familiar and accessible to all.
O N T H E R O A D
With multiple tours in China, including one as support act for French music icon -M-, several mini tours in France, plus shows in Finland, Russia, Holland and Reunion Island (Africa), AM444 is steadily building a solid live reputation for themselves.

"AM444 make head-nodders for spaceships. They are undoubtedly one of the Chinese underground’s most exportable products. It’s only a matter of time before this rocket blasts off (..) The sound is, at alternating intervals, dark, hopeful, funky, tranced-out, beautiful, foreboding, buoyant, and back to dark and funky. It’s the drug equivalent of smoking opium, then taking a hit off a crack pipe, and following that up with some downers and a six-pack of Red Bull." (layabozi.com)
