Collection: [Sound Signature]

The new Parrish single appears on vinyl in the form of two mixes differing in vibe but consistent in quality and suitability for DJ use. The original rides along on a shuffling, almost Afrobeat version of house, with Maurissa Rose's gorgeous vocal floating above the gloopy, hypnotic bassline which gets the full filter treatment. The instrumental dub places that b-line very much at the centre of the mix, starting from a single kickdrum before building up to a more techno-edged, vocal free climax. all throbbing bass, solid bears and minimal, glitchy keyboard interjections.

Lovely EP of warm contemporary soul, produced by Meftah ! "In a world where it is easier than ever to say something, it is actually the hardest time to be heard. We are constantly bombarded by so much information and/or distractions that people can hardly be blamed for not tuning in. The box has been constructed to be safe, so why step outside it? The vibe shift is undeniable but everyone is free to choose which frequency to tap into. Music can be nourishment for the soul if you have the right ingredients. Even then you need the right chefs to cook it properly to be served. Meftah and Ideeyah have taken their time to create something that feels complete. Something intentional. Meditative. Another piece in the great chain of the African Diaspora. Where else but Detroit could something like this come from? A complete concept that is unabashedly of the present but still honors the past. This is Soul music. Crafted with love for community, for heritage, for fulfillment. There was a method to the madness, a reason for the gradual formation of artistic merit that is presented to you now. This music contains a universal message if you can open your eyes and mind to it. Less talking, more doing. Go out there and be somebody again. Reclaim your light under the sun. Swing Low, Sweet Chariot. For Funk is it’s own reward, if you want it to be. - Turtle Bugg"

In his own words: "Traffic Jams are really coagulation and inflammation in the body. Mental stresses are Traffic Jams. Moments where there is no flow are all due to Traffic Jams. Within the Mind Fear and Doubt are Traffic Jams." The first song of the EP, " Positive Mental Attitude Solves All,"is a tribute to the eternal elder and stalwart, Amp Fiddler. "Hey, we got that P.M.A.!" - Bad Brains in "Attitude"
