Sisa Me

FATdrop digital music services promo
promo packshot
Artist: Sisa Me
Title: Slack Chin
Genre: Reggae / Pop
Label: Urban Tree Music

On 05.07.2019, Sisa Me released their first single “Slack Chin” together with a music video of the same name. Sisa Me consists of Avia und Ben, a musical duo whose intuition for groove and distinctive song writing have real pop appeal.
“Slack Chin” represents the band’s first milestone and is synonymous with Sisa Me’s versatile sound. 

Organic arrangements flow together with an expansive brass section, groovy beats and skillfully applied dub elements to construct a musical bed for the marvelously light, yet bittersweet chorus. This tune screams for radio airplay!
“’Cause every time I aim for you I hit something in the way
now. If you think I try my best to miss, you’re making a
mistake now. Radioactive lips!”
– “Slack Chin” Sisa Me

Sensitive to fluctuations in the musical landscape and listening habits, Sisa Me will release a new single from the repertoire every month. On top of that, UK heavyweight Mad Professor, and the two-time JUNO award winner Dubmatix, have provided extra support in the way of diverse remixes of the group’s singles. Stay connected to enjoy Sisa Me’s monthly musical delicacies!

Sisa Me’s natural energy fuses with their diverse sound to create exhilarating, dance-worthy music that needs to be featured any playlist or festival.

about
It was that Lee Hazelwood Cowboy in Sweden record.

It was learning that the Atlantic Ocean spreads by about an inch each year, pushing apart Europe and America.

It was that Iceland sits on top of that bubbling ridge and gains strange new land by its spreading.

It was the desire to drink in that otherworldly landscape and experience its effect in the music, the way different alcohols have different intoxicating effects on a body.

It was those cheap flights advertised.

It was that you had to leave home to see it for what it is, to frame it neatly: to miss a thing was to know its shape.

These songs deal with the nest that is Kentucky. There’s a saying that goes something like, “When the world comes to an end, I want to be in Kentucky where it's always 5 years behind.” The water they say is good for distilling bourbon. There is something in the water. And what it produces in its people is alternately Dionysian and Apollonian.

Woven into the melodies and rhythms of these songs are fragments of the many musical traditions that comprise what we now call Kentucky music: Irish, British, and African to name a few. The best music would be a conversation with the divine that has seen all of it, or...  more

Thijsenterprise - Proefmonster & Originals By LDBK

New show by LDBK


Thijsenterprise - Proefmonster & Originals

A few days ago, producer Reinier Thijs aka Thijsenterprise released Proefmonster*, an album full of hiphop and r&b remixes. The project originated in April 2019 as a study on making remixes and learning to work around vocal keys, different bpms, crappy audio and other obstacles to create renditions of classic hiphop and r&b songs. 

You can download the full Proefmonster album for free on https://thijsenterprise.bandcamp.com/...

In this set, Reinier mixes tracks from his Proefmonster album with some of the original samples giving us a (rare) insight in his creative process and how he created the album.
