Premiere: Ekai – Roots EP ft. Samuel Fitch (Tigerskin Remix)

Share

Ekai returns to Baumhaus Records, after his ‘Homies & Beats’ released last year, Ekai has been working hard in his studio these months to deliver ‘Roots’, our next EP.

Roots, as its name suggests, its a track about the beginnings of house music, and this is Ekai’s homage to the type of music which most identify him. With few but strong elements Roots it’s a very overwhelming track with 808 congas, piano chords and very effective break. But we should not forget the main element of Roots and it’s the vocal. Samuel Fitch who has recorded for labels like Fiakun is the man who writes and sings the lyrics of the track. He has been singing in various musical genres and you can find this versatility through ‘Roots’. All of this recorded at Tio Pete Studios one of the bests studios in the north of Spain.

One single track like ‘Roots’ is more than enough to close a great release but they wanted to give a twist to the original version so they asked the german reputate producer Tigerskin to give his own vision of the main track. His unique style is deep and he takes ‘Roots’ onto a different terrain, respecting the original vocal but more focused into that german tight club style.

Grahame Farmer’s love affair with electronic music goes back to the mid-90s when he first began to venture into the UK’s beloved rave culture, finding himself interlaced with some of the country’s most seminal club spaces. A trip to dance music’s anointed holy ground of Ibiza in 1997 then cemented his sense of purpose and laid the foundations for what was to come over the next few decades of his marriage to the music industry.
