🎭 Streetwise swagger with a soulful sting.
“Beat You At Your Own Game (Wrong Player)” flips the script on power and control—delivering a genre-bending groove where smoky R&B melodies ride over neo-soul chords, laid-back rap cadences, and jazz-infused flourishes. A confident, knowing vocal performance drives the track, with AI artist Ziah taking the spotlight in a seamless interplay of warmth, wit, and unapologetic charm.
Where the “No Rules” mix leans into high-energy club swagger, Wrong Player takes its time—pulling you into a slow-burn, head-nodding pocket that blends street confidence with refined musicality. Live brass accents, liquid bass, velvet keys, and razor-sharp drums create a soundscape that’s equal parts intimate and cinematic.

Beat You At Your Own Game (Wrong Player)

The last piece to join Sumolicious Edits Vol. 1, made late in the process with my best mate Finji. As we’ve done so many times before, we built it in turns — each of us working for 30 minutes, swapping seats until it was done. In just a few back-and-forth rounds, the track took shape. Calm, smooth, and unhurried, 40 Winks is the perfect closer — a moment to breathe, reflect, and drift out of the EP with a relaxed state of mind.

A nocturnal soul story wrapped in strings, groove, and pure longing. Fly My Way to Light drifts through warm summer air, chasing a love that feels written in the constellations. Eyes meet like a memory, the heart turns loud, and the sky becomes a canvas for words unspoken.

From soft funk basslines to lush orchestral swells, this song blends passion, mystery, and romance into a timeless sound. It’s about fate, flight, and the faith that if love is real, it will always find its way back.


LYRICS 
I saw you walking past me in the heat of June 
Eyes like a memory, pulling down the moon 
I didn’t say a thing but the feeling just grew 
As if the stars remembered me through you 

Pre-Chorus 

If you could feel what I feel 
Then you’d know this love is real 

Chorus 

What if you could fly through the night? 
Just like a butterfly in the sky 
I never told you what your eyes confessed 
But if love is real, time will do the rest 
If you could fly, would you come my way? 
You didn't see me but my heart turned loud 
Felt like I vanished inside of that crowd 
Just like a ghost that knew your name too well 

Post-Chorus 

Like a butterfly flying in the sky 
Every move you make just felt so right 
If I could speak, I would only say 
I've been waitin' on your love all day 

Bridge 

What if you could fly into the sky 
Just like a butterfly flying high 
If you could fly, would you fly to me 
Across the veil where the angels sing? 

Refrain 

Would you fly to me? (x2) 
Like a butterfly in the sky you’d be 
Yeah yeah writing love across the sky only 

Verse 2 

They called it chance  I called it fate 
But the wind knows how long I’ve waited 
You circled the moon and then whispered my name 
Said love ain’t lost, it’s just in the flame 

Build 

So burn through the stars, my girl with wings 
Bring back the songs I forgot to sing 
You’re more than beauty  you're the sign 
That love’s been alive through all of time 

Final Chorus 

If you could fly, would you fly to me? 
Come my way on this summer day 
Like a butterfly in the sky you’d be 
The rhythm that brings me back to faith 

Outro 

Oh, if you could fly, would you break the sky? 
And flow through the deepest parts of life 
What if you could fly  fly my way to light? 
Deepest part of life  fly my way tonight 
Fly through the stars, if you could fly 
Would you fly my way, my love 
Like a butterfly... 
In the sky... 
Tonight 🕊️

FLY MY WAY TO LIGHT (live session)

Thanks for listening to my song! Leave is a slow-burning R&B confession with a touch of soft rock. I layered harmonies and wrote the rhythmic groove to feel smoky and sultry, but still emotional. Inspired by artists like HAIM, Sabrina Claudio, Gallant, and Kali Uchis. 

Leave

This mashup is built around Shalamar – This Is for the Lover in You as the core groove, layered with smooth R&B, hip hop, and soulful samples that weave nostalgia with a fresh twist.

The track fuses 90s/2000s hip hop flavor with timeless R&B vocals and textures, blending romantic tones with streetwise energy. You’ll hear samples from A+ – All I See, Kenny Lattimore – Real Love This Christmas, Cassidy Karon – Soft Life, and deep cuts like Debra Laws – How Long and Dennis Edwards – (You’re My) Aphrodisiac.

The mix moves between silky harmonies and gritty bars, with Paula Perry – Ghetto Vows, Papa Reu – Hold On, Mr. Mistah – It’s Real, and Torrey Carter – Take That adding texture and rhythm. Algebra Blessett – Nobody But You ties it together with modern soul energy.

This is a love-soaked mashup with a hip hop backbone—built for crate diggers, sample lovers, and anyone who enjoys discovering how eras of music connect.

It's got to be real

Time Out of Mind - Steely Dan Cover

Soulful R&B with a smooth sax solo, this track cuts through the fog with rhythm and hope.

Woke up, the world ain’t clear,
Faces fading, voices near.
Shadows move where the daylight hides,
Pressure’s heavy, but my soul survives.

Every heartbeat keeps the time,
Even when the rhythm’s hard to find.

Through the haze, I feel the light,
Breaking slow, but it shines tonight.
Forces try to drag me low,
But love’s the groove that lets me flow.

Some days the streets all echo wrong,
Noise is louder than my song.
Still I hear a whisper cuttin’ through,
Saying “Rise up, the strength’s in you.”

Every struggle’s just a note,
In the melody that keeps me afloat.

Through the haze, I feel the light,
Breaking slow, but it shines tonight.
Forces try to drag me low,
But love’s the groove that lets me flow.

Blurred vision, but my soul’s still clear,
Hope’s a sax line I can always hear.
Every step, I move in time,
Finding peace on the other side.

Through the haze, I feel the light,
Breaking slow, but it shines tonight.
Forces try to drag me low,
But love’s the groove that lets me flow.

Through the Haze I feel The Light

Sammi Dae is the creative alias of Luke Carter, a UK-based songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist who is rewriting the rulebook on music creation, performance, and presentation in the digital age.

At a time when the music industry is hyper-focused on youth, visuals, and algorithms, Carter—now in his 50s—is innovating from a place of deep experience and enduring passion. Every track released under the Sammi Dae name is wholly written, produced, and performed by Luke himself, then fronted by one of 13 custom-built AI vocalists. These AI artists are genre-specific digital personas—from the soulful to the cinematic, from dancefloor-ready to deeply emotional—each developed by Carter to give voice to songs that are entirely human in origin.

Sumo is a DJ and an outstanding producer who celebrates his love for Garage House – a unique branch of house music that first emerged in New Jersey in the early 1990s before being further developed in London in the years that followed.
With his debut single Hokori, he presents his very own interpretation of the genre. Naturally, the funky rattling snares and distinctive basslines are front and centre, but it’s the sublime vocals that give the track a delicate touch and lift it beyond the genre’s boundaries. Equally captivating is Sumo’s trademark use of an oscillator between straight and broken beats, making Hokori a perfect opener for his forthcoming Ishiki EP, also set for release on Sonar Kollektiv.

Sumo began playing piano and guitar at an early age, bought his first turntables at fifteen, and later completed formal training as a composer and sound designer. Today, he works at one of the most renowned sound branding studios, composing music for a variety of high-profile projects such as Smart’s trade fair appearances in Paris, Geneva and Frankfurt, the Bread&&Butter exhibition for Mercedes-Benz, and the Humboldt Forum in Berlin.

As a DJ, he has been performing for over a decade at clubs and festivals including 0711 Club, Freund & Kupferstecher, MTV HipHop Open and New Fall Festival, as well as for brand events hosted by Hugo Boss, Karl Lagerfeld, Vogue, Grazia, Mustang, Breuninger and many more.

In addition to his studio sessions and DJ performances, Sumo hosts the 0711 radio show on egoFM and produces the Rillencheck podcast in collaboration with the Mercedes-Benz Museum, alongside fellow DJ artists such as Konstantin Sibold, Leif Müller, Dexter, Fatoni and Torch.

Hadley began composing music at the age of 12, blending curiosity with raw creativity at a time when songwriting tools were limited to pen, paper, and instinct. From those early beginnings, Hadley developed a lifelong knack for turning life’s moments—both big and small—into captivating tracks and songs that resonate across generations.
