Farid - Sunday Paper

Reggae Pantchaka

Best known for her 2008 UK Top 20 hit Heartbeat (also sampled on Rita Ora’s R.I.P) and winner of Best African Act at the MOBO Awards in 2009, Nigerian born singer Nneka releases her latest album, My Fairy Tales 
which focuses on the artist’s roots and Afrobeat side.
Known for speaking her mind in her music, My Fairy Tales tackles subjects as varied as the politics of her Nigerian birthplace through to her own personal voyage of discovery. 
Mixed by James ‘Bonzai’ Caruso (known for his mix of Method Man ft.  Mary J Blige’s ‘You’re All I Need’ and his work with Damian & Stephen Marley), the album’s opening cut, Believe System speaks of the need to connect with your roots. 
On this track Nneka’s highly expressive vocals firmly place her amongst global songstresses like Neneh Cherry, Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill and the like. 
Second track Babylon tells of regional plight in West Africa over a Fela-type Afrobeat/highlife groove. Next is the first single from the album My Love with its lilting reggae beat and personable lyrics about positive love. 
Other key tracks on the album include Local Champion, about her hometown of Warri, Nigeria, the optimistic and spiritual Surprise plus the ska influenced Pray For You, in which Nneka speaks of the healing powers of forgiveness.
Bringing the album to a close is Book of Job, with its charismatic chorus vocal and finally In Me - two excellent reggae cuts which clearly exemplify this global artist’s talent pedigree.
My Fairy Tales sees Nneka with a new confidence and maturity in both her song writing and performance. All this from a career that has seen her collaborate with the likes of Massive Attack, Lenny Kravitz, Tricky, Ziggy Marley, and more. 
Nneka toured the States in 2010 alongside Nas and Damian Marley (as Distant Relatives) after an appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman earlier that year and has also had singles “Shining Star” and “Heartbeat” remixed by 
Hot Chip’s Joe Goddard and Chase & Status respectively.
Nneka will be promoting My Fairy Tales throughout the year with a European tour in spring that sees one UK date at the Village Underground, East London on April 7th - a date for the dairy if ever there was one.

GOIN' STEADY – By NEWTOWN ROCKSTEADY
Out Worldwide April 26.
File Under: Rocksteady, Reggae, Ska

Newtown Rocksteady return with their second EP, Goin’ Steady this April 26th, hot on the heels of their performance at this year’s Womad NZ.

Recorded live at The Boardroom (an offshoot of infamous Wellington recording studio, The Surgery) and mixed collaboratively by band members and engineer, Ryan Prebble, Goin' Steady documents the band’s already well-developed live sound.

Newtown Rocksteady - In The Red

Separate me
Get me away from everyone
Caus' I will never dare to say the first word

Don't try to catch me 
Caus' I've been running for so long
That I am out sight for you
I am out of sight for you

And now that,
I am alone I think of what I've done
I've torn the friendships that I had and everyone is gone
It brings me down for God's sake
It brings me down

So I fall
I fall away
Leaving nothing but sad memories of yesterday
Oh how did I become the thing that gets your mood to grey

I see nothing but memories
Circled around me like wolves
Biting me from every side

And there's no remedy
At least not one that will cure
Being left alone inside

So I fall
I fall away
Leaving nothing but sad memories of yesterday
Oh how did I become the thing that gets your mood to grey

Memories of Yesterday
