<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Samuel Proffitt</span></b><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"> will release his stunning debut EP entitled
<b><i>Blue Notebook No. 10</i></b> tomorrow, but you can stream the EP in its entirety now via
<b><i>Noisey</i></b>! Written following the death of Proffitt’s best friend and roommate, the EP is an emotionally motivated and exquisite compilation of indie electronic tracks. “<i>Blue Notebook No. 10</i> isn’t one singular idea or influence; it’s a fragmented
story,” Proffitt tells <i>Noisey</i>. “It’s the most direct and personal work that I’ve composed, each piece serving as but a layer to a larger, veiled, but ever-pervasive reality.”

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">A seasoned dance music producer who has been supported by the likes of
<b>Krewella</b> and <b>Above & Beyond</b>, <b>Samuel Driver</b> traded in the world of dance music for his love of songwriting, storytelling, poetry, and Russian literature. The result, the
<b>Samuel Proffitt</b> project and the debut EP <b><i>Blue Notebook No. 10</i></b>, resembles the penetrating chill and lucidity of a winter’s night; music that is a window to something more - something elusive, intimate, raw. Proffitt has finally found the
voice - musically and lyrically - that he’d been searching for all along. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
