OFFAIAH, Ekonovah & 7KY ‘Save My Soul’- ALL FIRE
The brilliant OFFAIAH unleashes the next instalment on his ALL FIRE label, joining forces with innovative producer Ekonovah and futuristic vocalist-producer 7KY on ‘Save My Soul’. The result is a sublime deep cinematic groove armed with a brooding bassline, airy synthscapes and topped with 7YK’s breathy vocals.
Late Nite City ft Freya ‘Hold Me’ - Late Nites
UK Producers George Smeddles, Danny Langan and Josh Arise have joined forces on a fresh soulful project, Late Nite City, teaming up British songbird Freya on ‘Hold Me’. Backed by a smooth soundtrack where emotive key melodies dance over a warm bass groove, Freya delivers a gorgeous heartfelt vocal, dripping with pure soul.
Danism + Train feat. Toshi ‘More’ (Rocco Rodamaal Remix) – SoSure Music
Deep melodic afrocentric bliss here as French legend Rocco delivers one of his signature Rodamaal remixes of Danism + Train’s third collaboration with Afro House’s favourite songbird, Toshi, on ‘More’. Classy, deep and very dreamy!
Yazmina – Amnesia EP – Circus Recordings
DJ Yazmina makes a potent debut Yousef’s Circus Recordings ‘Amnesia EP’, keeping things strictly underground. ‘Amnesia’ (inspired by the legendary Ibiza club), features Lucky Samurai whose words vibe over Yazmina’s deep jackin’ groove. ‘Flangé Bongo’ comes centred around a playful vocal sample “Feel the Bongo”, underpinned by a pumping house groove teased with flanged bongos.
Rasmus Faber, Lucas Nord feat. Melo ‘Somebody’ - Farplane Records
Rasmus Faber joins forces with fellow Swedish talent Lucas Nord and Melo on a new collaboration ‘Somebody’ on Farplane Records. ‘Somebody’ is centred around a deep melodic house groove, plump with layers of pretty keys and emotive synth melodies, garnished with a cute and quirky hook, as Melo delivers a stunning melancholy drenched vocal.
