New Music: ‘Cabin Fever’ EP by Shakka, mixed by Jake Gordon

Singer, songwriter, and producer Shakka has dropped his highly-anticipated EP entitled Cabin Fever, mixed by Jake Gordon.

“The appropriately titled EP relates to us all being stuck indoors for the past few months, but the 5 track project allows you to escape those feelings as Shakka’s vocals are clear and unique throughout the feel-good EP. Fusing R&B and Reggae sounds, each track makes you feel positive as you listen to his recognisably smooth lyrics that have featured on various collabs over the years.” – GRM Daily

New Music: ‘In My House’ by James Chatburn, co-written and produced by Lewis Dransfield

“Ringing in the sound of spring, Berlin-based Australian James Chatburn is back with his new single “In My House”. Brimming with soul and guided by a mellow, funk-tinged bounce to echo the gradual return of the sun. Fusing together his dual loves of indie and soul music, the fuzzy, analogue textures of “In My House” also give it just a hint of ’70s nostalgia, making it the perfect antidote to the receding cold.” – Complex 

‘In My House’ is co-written with writer/producer Lewis Dransfield.

New Music: ‘Zita’ by Wuh Oh, mixed by Steve Dub

Glasgow-based producer Wuh Oh has released new single ‘Zita’, mixed by Steve Dub.

“Combining gospel and Middle Eastern melodies with heavy drums, ‘Zita’ is euphoric and driving. Wuh Oh, aka Peter Ferguson, commented, “‘Zita’ is the sacred music playing from a shadow temple in a different, darker dimension. Even when the choir enters and light momentarily breaks through the darkness, the voices are warped, as if reaching us only in distorted echoes from a distant past.” – Mixmag
