Alfa Mist is a British musician, composer, and producer known for his amalgamation of jazz with hip-hop, soul, and ambient soundscapes. Emerging from East London's diverse and rich music scene, Alfa Mist began his journey as a self-taught pianist and rapper, later turning to jazz as the core influence for his evocative music. His DIY ethos reflects in his works, as he often takes charge of the various aspects of his music production process.

Alfa Mist's debut album, "Nocturne" (2015), served as an introduction to his introspective and mood-centric style, mixing instrumental and vocal pieces with snippets of spoken-word. He gained significant attention with "Antiphon" (2017), an eight-track project that explored themes of personal growth and self-understanding, resonating with a wide audience and cementing his position within the modern jazz movement. Following albums like "Structuralism" (2019) and "Bring Backs" (2021) showcase his proficiency in blending complex jazz harmonies with a down-to-earth storytelling, earning critical acclaim and establishing Alfa Mist as a significant figure in the contemporary jazz renaissance, appealing to both new listeners and jazz aficionados alike. Through releases like "Epoch" and his reflective piano reworks in "Zero,” Alfa Mist continues to push the boundaries of his sound, creating immersive musical narratives that stand as testament to his talent and thoughtful approach to his artistry.
