Description
SAI GALAXY - OKERE EP
The star-studded Sai Galaxy project returns, bringing together West African legends Steve Monite and Rob with multi-instrumentalist Simon Durrington, guitar maestro Alfred Bannerman and Egypt 80 trumpet player Bade for a second EP of vital Afro disco and soul. The EP follows up 2022's 'Get It As You Move' EP, blending layers of vocal harmonies and synth washes with a rock solid disco base. The sound stays faithful to the analogue production techniques of the 70s and 80s, adding a modern touch informed by Simon Durrington's Digital Afrika project.
Lead single "Hold You Tonight" features Nigerian disco icon Steve Monite (best known for his mega hit "Only You"), revisiting his 80s origins with a dancefloor-ready slice of dubby boogie.
"Rich Man Poor Man" (featuring Ghana's very own Rob) slows down the tempo and brings the highlife influence to the fore, while "Sometimes It Rains" brings a neo soul bump with the Omar-esque sound of Fijian vocalist Kaivili.
Tracks:
- Sometimes It Rains feat. Kaivili
- Okere feat. Bade
- Rich Man, Poor Man feat. Rob
- Hold Me Tonight feat. Steve Monite
