“Very fresh and sweet work. Reggae style with melodious instrumental sound and vocals closely related to the overall structure of the song. It creates an impression of relaxation with warm sound, causing a dreamy mood.”

“Очень свежая, как глоток чистой воды, работа. В рамках жанра регги партии всех инструментов звучат мелодично, вокал плотно связан с общей структурой песни. Создаётся общее впечатление расслабленности, тёплого звучания, вызывающее мечтательное настроение.”

“Honey” is from Gentleman’s Dub Club’s latest album, Down To Earth, and was praised by Brooklyn Vegan, which gushed, “UK crew Gentleman’s Dub Club tapped the great Hollie Cook for this summery jam and when her harmonies hit this is ‘Honey’ indeed.”

The video literally drips with sweetness. Toby Davies from the band states, “Honey is about the lure of attraction and the sweetness of that sensation mixed in with the dangers of being essentially addicted to a person, even if you are heading down a self-destructive path.”

The video is directed by London based creative production company We Are Tobin (Toby Rothwell and Martin Jarrett). GDC and We Are Tobin have a successful track record together, so it made sense to rekindle the magic for “Honey.” Toby Davies explains, “We were looking for someone to work on the ‘Stardust’ music video – Martin was introduced to us by an old friend and photographer / video pro Oli Samuel, who came on tour with us a few years back. We wanted it to be visually very psychedelic without breaking the bank using CGI. Martin and Toby (We are Tobin) came back to us with some amazing ideas centered around using a projector to create crazy visuals on Johnny’s silhouette as he performed. It came out unbelievably well! From that point onwards they were our first port of call for video work and we ended up doing the ‘Light The Fuse’ video – a mad sort of post-apocalyptic thriller featuring a chip shop, a kidnapping, and a portal to another world – and now the ‘Honey’ video.”

The end result is another creative, engaging, and visually stunning video. The band concludes, “Working with We Are Tobin is an absolute dream: they are extremely creative, versatile people and are willing to go the extra mile to make their videos stand out. They are very adept at understanding concepts and putting them into practice in a pragmatic and fun way. Big up Mart and Toby!!”

Silent Nancy, Shaka The King – Tell Me What Side I’m On (Spotify)

Categories: Audio, The Latest, World Music|Tags: , , , , , , |

“A musically vibrant blending of a variety of genres including Hip Hop, Soul & Reggae that would be as much at home in Kingston as it would be in New York, or London. The message is clear ‘Tell Me What side I’m on?’ The answer equally as clear. Racism has no place in the World. ”

-Nagamag.com

The singer Katie Burke wakes up sober and Skype’s with her fellow musician Rocksteady Fred in Sweden. Together they are the duo Silent Nancy and they talk about how to fill the upcoming album with fantastic music. The conversation will soon be about the injustices that characterize American society. Why do significantly more white’s than black’s survive Covid 19? Also, can something be done about the widespread racism within the police force?

Together with Shaka The King, the idea for the song Tell me what side I'm on was born. Shaka runs a vegan restaurant, stands on the barricade, gets his worst frustrations out as a boxing instructor and raps late at night at the toughest underground hip hop clubs in New York. He has no problem making a song that questions society. Tell me what side I'm on, is a mix of Hip Hop, Soul and Reggae. Katie's unic voice and Shaka's rap stand out in the support of the Black Lives Matters movement. Silent Nancy plans to release two more singles next spring and the album will be released in the summer of 2021!

About Silent Nancy
A Molocow Cocktail of emotions is thrown to the air in this song, For those who don’t know. Katie Burke grabs your heart and won’t let it go until she sings the last tone of this massive reggae / soul ballad. The riddim is actually built up on a reggae riddim but sounds more like an old school soul song when Burke completes the harmonies with her voice. This was the first song Rocksteady Fred and Katie Burke ever made together and the chemistry soon led to the making of two albums! The first Album will be released this summer while the second is still cockin…

“The slowly building rhythmic intro develops into an irresistible deep Afro House beat with a solid kick as the foundation to a multi layered euphonic collection of acoustic & electronic instruments, that are hit, shaken, scraped, strummed, blown or otherwise coerced into joining in the fun. The vocals are delightful, enhancing the whole vibe in a wonderful way.”

Individualist is an Afro-acoustic, deep house production duo based in Halle (Saale), Germany. Comprising Wayne from South Africa and Rob from Canada, the duo met by chance in front of the latter’s studio and decided to make electronic music together, before evolving into a proper live group and production duo. Their music is characterised by colourful, swinging house beats with deep roaring basses, earthy acoustic instruments and glitchy sonic landscapes - a culmination of Wayne’s deep roots in South African house music and Rob’s background in music studies and passion for raw analogue sounds. The beats and bass are created on an analog synth, while the guitars, keys, harmonica and vocals are recorded live, resulting in raw and honest house music with a decidedly indie aesthetic and a sound that is uniquely their own. Prolific producers, the duo have released dozens of tracks on various labels in Germany, England, Singapore, Dubai, Switzerland and the USA, including remixes from the likes of FKA Mash, ChronicalDeep, Gumz and Tahir Jones.
