Ripples
Coming next on Ibiza & NYC-based Eyedyllic Music, is a special single from Cape Town, South African producer, Erefaan Pearce. Ripples is the first single from his forthcoming full-length album, The Late Nite Cancerian. With this song, the artist attempts to capture the subtleties of the deep connections we make with people.
He laments, that 'this record is about Love - the sublime connection between two people.' Written alongside vocalist Anthony Oseyemi, the song explores the nuance, idealism and feelings of those first sparks between people.
Veteran U.S. house producer Demarkus Lewis steps up for remix duties, his version explores more complex tones and sounds palette to the original, and is geared straight for the club atmosphere. Rhythmically tight and texturally complex, where the original vocal mix is harmonic and light.
Rounding out the record, Erefaan's own Cape Flats mix takes an alternate direction from the album's Vocal Mix, veering on a dark, almost progressive tip -- its truly different to the others on the record -- but keeps keeps the strong emotional integrity of the original record, front and center. After all, love is a complex emotion, different for everyone, and it comes in a variety of flavors -- much like this record.
Ripples will be out on Eyedyllic in October, in advance of his full-length on the label, which will hit stores in November.
