Bermuda is a territory in the Atlantic Ocean spread across over a hundred of islands which have been luring holidaymakers for decades. More importantly though, it is a cultural melting pot with majority of population being of African descent and strong ties to the Caribbean, Great Britain, the US and Portugal being inherent in the country's past and present.

The islands are also a birthplace of Obeka (@djobeka), a young DJ and producer whose music is a perfect testament to Bermuda's Afro-Caribbean identity. Having moved to the UK aged 16, he started channeling his childhood years of absorbing the music via carnivals, handmade sound systems and riddim culture through the lens of British electronic/club music scene. The latest outcome of these experiments comes in a form of 'Move Like So EP'.

The release opens with a somewhat murky and dystopian 'Duppy Drum'. Containing a nod to Afro-Caribbean culture in its very title ('duppy' is a word of African origin widely used in Caribbean beliefs), the song features the sound of West African drums recorded live. 'Test System' - a first ever track with Obeka himself on vocals - brings surprising reminiscence of Otto von Schirach distorted voice heard on Modeselektor tracks all those years ago. To wrap things up, the title song ('Move Like So') is set at a lower tempo and has been written in a natural movement of dancehall as Obeka remembers it from back home.
