Run Dem EP by DJ Mellow, Lowup Records
DJ Mellow is back almost a year after the release of his track Alright, on the compilation celebrating 10 years of his label Lowup.
You may have already heard his new track in De Grandi and Le Dom’s b2b on Boiler Room. Run Dem, whose colourful official video was released a few days ago, is a perfect mix of Afro sounds, Uk Funky and Bashment, favorite styles of the Belgian producer.
For the occasion, DJ Mellow called on the Nigerian vocalist Magugu, whose shamanic voice had already magnified the UK Funky and Tribal House productions of the British Boa Kusasa or Lorenzo BITW.
The Genevan producer Rolv.K remixes DJ Mellow’s Run Dem
Two great remixes accompany the original track. The first is produced by Famous Eno, faithful to the Belgian label for years. The second is made by Rolv.K, a key artist on the Geneva music scene, founder of the collective Mango Juice Music and a member of Toukankhamon, closely followed by Couvre x Chefs for a while now …
True to itself, Rolv.K brings a highly efficient afro 130 bpm twist to 130 bpm to the original piece, dotted with some well felt baile beatbox.
Run Dem EP by DJ Mellow will be available on March 29th via Lowup Records.
