Hold on,

let your heart melt

Listen to yourself 
everyday

Reginald Chapman "We Shall Overcome (Tiago Frúgoli Remix)"

The debut single from LAPIS – a singer, musician, and producer from Auckland, New Zealand

Maxi-single with instrumental and single edit out now: freshselects.bandcamp.com/album/blue-in-orange

"I recorded the first version of this song in 2013 when I was turning 18. I came back more than once over the next 1-2 years. 

At the 2:57 mark I back come in to look back on what happened from a different perspective. In doing so I was able to process the story, that period in my life again, on a deeper level. 

At 2:57 it is like a reality check.. “Shit, this is what was really going down..” And the rest of the song – with the extended dance section and the darker tone – is really a grieving process, both for what was, and the dreams that never really were – the dreams of idealised love that never held any water. It is also a catharsis and transformation, of the pain and confusion. 

This reflective and retrospective process, captured as ‘Blue in Orange’ allowed me to tie this up and move on –> from blue into orange!"

"Girl, I left you a note, 
What it said - I don’t even know 
But can't you reply? 
Even if you say no...

Girl, I left you a note, 
What it said - I don’t even know 
But can't you reply? 
Even if you say no...

See my rap game counting down, all along, all alone..
See my rap game counting down, all along, all alone.. 
See my rap game counting down, all along, all alone.. 
See my rap game counting down, all along, all alone..

Ooh, ooh, ooh, my love 

Girl, I left you a letter
What it said - I didn't know better.
What I wrote - down I blush, 
Now when I think about it.

Girl, I wrote you a play, 
Starring me and you in the way, 
In which I thought it should be. 
But I didn't give you no say..."

The Silhouettes Project

The Silhouettes Project a new platform for up and coming Hip-Hop, Soul and Jazz artists from the UK. It is not a record label or management team, it is a community project.

The Silhouttes Project was founded by community organisers/artists Asher Korner (aka Kosher) and Jaden Osei-Bonsu (Eerf Evil) in 2019. When they told us about the project and played us some of the music we were instantly hooked and joined the collective as label partner. The art direction is executed by Sergio „SagaUno“ Alférez, an acclaimed designer and illustrator from Medellín, Colombia.
Starting in September, we release a new single each Thursday from artists like Kofi Stone, Summers Sons, Enny, KeepVibesNear, Manik MC, Lex Amor, Louis The Hippie, Summer-Pearl, Joe Beard and many more.

The Process

Turt & Stephanie Santiago - The Process (prod. by Purple Cloud)

Among the LPs that grace our turntables, Herbie Hancock's "Head Hunters" and Flying Lotus' "Until the Quiet Comes" stay in heavy rotation. Recognizing common threads across two incredible records released almost forty years apart, we asked ourselves an interesting question: What if Herbie and the Headhunters covered the work of FlyLo and his partner Thundercat? We've revisited this challenge on and off while developing our own new sounds.

Coincidentally, after we made some headway on this track we discovered that the sources of our inspiration had spent some time in the studio together. Apparently we weren't the only ones who recognized the musical kinship between these greats.
