Balraj Singh Samrai & Farah Ahmad Khan connect once more exploring Climate Justice enlisting British-Tamil artist @goldtooth_dj & Mancunian-Malawaian @rootz0161 for a hard-hitting number fit for the club or classroom backed by a futurist visual from Sophie Ying-Wang Billington. This releases follows acclaimed works by Balraj & Farah for Opera North & MIF Sounds with performances at Bluedot & Manchester International Festival as well as support from BBC 6 Music (Mary Anne Hobbs/Jamz Supernova), Mr Scruff, Mixmag, DJ Mag, FACT Mag & Bandcamp Weekly. 

Originally a collaborative work commissioned by Manchester Museum & Season for Change, Planet-People-Power explored Pan-Africian, Caribbean, Indigenous & South Asian diaspora experiences in relation to climate change. The work featured a plethora of international collaborators from artists, activists & musicians to poets, producers & curators. 

Fresh from his BBC Asian Network residency South-London’s GoldTooth flips Planet-People-Power’s original track eleven minutes into a digestible three & half minutes expertly incorporating Rakhi Singh’s warm strings, Vikaash Sankadecha’s irresistible tabla rhythms as well as glowing pads, skittering drums & 808 bass glides even adding his own vocal lines to the haunting hook. Rising star of the Manchester underground Rootz raps a poignant verse putting forward the realities of the current situation whilst yearning for a brighter tomorrow. 

The Remix is interspersed with profound interview excerpts from Climate Activist/Researcher Pooja Kishinani, Curator of Indigenous Perspectives Alexandra P. Alberda & Manchester-based Writer, Performance Artist & Producer Keisha Thompson. Jamaican Artist Gavsborg of Kingston’s prestigious Equiknoxx collective delivers a stark poem as well as Asian Dub Foundation’s Pandit G offering a moving example of the role green spaces provide for the most marginalised as well as the industrial threats that loom.

Balraj Singh Samrai & Farah Ahmad Khan - Planet People Power(GoldTooth Remix) featuring Rootz

My first solo release under the name "Samrai" since 2016 linking up with amazing talents LINTD and Raheel Khan on the new imprint - Sangha Industries. 
 
This single digs into the pressures of being turned into blood, sweat and grease for profit as well as exploring the triumph over such petty deaths. 

Sonically its minimal yet maximal with synths, sublow bass, drum machines and staccato tabla tones (from Vikaash), giving space for LINTD's evocative vocals.

Presenting 'Help Me' - From the album 'Work & Roti' (coinciding with a Video release shot by Alice-Kanako starring LINTD & Vinthya)

https://fanlink.to/helpmesingle

Myself & Shanique first connected in 2016 have collaborated, performed and feasted (!) together on numerous occasions in our respective hometowns of Manchester, UK and Kingston, JA. This track is a special and personal collaboration for us both exploring heritage, displacement and cultural identity.

The stunning visual from Alice-Kanako stars Vinthya and LINTD who also feature on 'Work & Roti'. 

These extended versions feature additional tabla rhythms on the intro and outro with the Dub mix going to work on the vocal delay, fx and reverb. For the DJ crew!

Hailing from Austria, Sun People aka https://soundcloud.com/simon-off once again shows the quality of production that has given rise to his reputation. With previous releases on Hyperboloid, Beat Machine and Disko404, here he now is on https://soundcloud.com/goodstreetrecords, providing us with some of that 160 Bass, drenched in Jungle, Disco and Footwork influences. The tracks have a confident, club ready vibe, and Sun People has sculpted them for maximum impact. 

Mastered by Macc at Subvert Central Mastering, these tracks pack a real punch. The title tracks begins the EP as it means to go on - funky, bassy and anything-but-boring. 'There Is Always A Place' is a solid roller, exhibiting tight percussion. 'The One For Me' starts with a funky 160 vibe, and slowly deconstructs until we're left with bass, breaks and drums. 

Artistic freedom and expression is evident throughout - this allows https://soundcloud.com/simon-off to breathe new life into multiple genres, bringing them together as a cohesive musical statement.
