Liberate is proud to announce their new release Jesus Man with the talented spoken word artist, Diamondancer. Already being supported by Dj’s across the world,we believe there’s a little something here for everyone!
We have Doc Link bringing his Chitown stylings to the table with thick drums and everything you would expect out of a liberate mix…. This pumping mix will be a go to and a staple for your prime time sets..
We truly let the Detroit talent shine on this project by letting Angel-A flex her production chops letting the world know she is more than just a pretty face that can belt out a beautiful song. Also,we have Fathom Records’ own, Dewayne Jensen who flips this project with a fly retro twist…
Last but certainly not least, we have Dj Daniel James… We got this cat from across the pond who rolls heavily with the Push Fm camp. His Digital Deep mixes help round off this package to give you many choices from which to choose. We hope you enjoy!!
.. ??Sheyi has recently made the transformation from percussionist to vocalist and along with Alpha & Olmega, has created a awesome piece of energetic afro house that we’re sure will be in your CD wallets for months to come! ??
Alpha & Olmega (Xolani Dlamini & Vusimuzi Chirwa) hail from the dusty streets of Soweto, South Africa. From a young age, these talented individuals knew they had music in their blood discovering their producing skills while playing around with their computer in one of their friends bedrooms, where locals would come and perform with instruments and percussion and their enthusiasm for house music grew from there.
Last year, Alpha & Olmega decided to bring their talents to the world, armed with nothing more than a hard drive filled with beats and a heart full of dreams, they immersed themselves in the city’s club culture. Their first big release which also featured Sheyi on vocals ‘Islandiwana’ was picked up by Nulu Records in the US and now there is a big anticipation for their follow up release.
Sheyi’s take on the project…
‘The African drummer’ ensemble has its origins in the Royal Kraal’s of Soweto and Oba’s Palaces of the old Yoruba Kingdoms. Drum and Dance…. the order of the day… till day break!
…Whilst the ancestral Percussive drums would announce the dance entourage within the various mixes.. to culminate in the vocal message of Zepherin Saint’s mix which emphasizes our ‘Dance and Love’ culture in these beloved modern times…’
The package includes remixes from Italy’s main man Fabio Genito, Toronto’s Trinidadian Deep and our very own Zepherin Saint. ?This one is sure to ‘make them dance!
