Alfa Mist is a London-born pianist, composer and producer who is part of the new generation of British jazz. His music blends jazz with soul and hip hop, with cinematic textures and a melancholic, urban sensibility.

His career includes seven studio albums. The most recent, Roulette (2025), is a concept album set in a dystopian future, featuring Tawiah, Homeboy Sandman and Kaya Thomas-Dyke. His earlier collaborations include Loyle Carner, Tom Misch and Jordan Rakei, with whom he has shared projects throughout his career.
