Jordan Rakei’s ‘Bruises’ Exhibits His Passion For Reggae
Jordan Rakei returns with new single ‘Bruises’.
The ever-productive songwriter recently appeared on Bonobo’s new album, and will join the electronic heavyweight on tour.
His own work continues at a remarkable pace, with Jordan Rakei now prepping a four track EP.
Out on March 4th, ‘Bruises’ pushes him in fresh directions, and points to unexplored passions.
The title track is a sloping piece of soulful reggae, with the low-end set in contrast to the neat vocal.
“I wanted to explore my musical roots of reggae music on ‘Bruises’, but put a slightly alternative spin on it,” explains Jordan in a press note.
“I wrote the string parts and took them to Amika Quartet. We spent a whole day coming up with different ideas for different sections of the song, and I’m really happy with how it all turned out. I had a lot of fun making this track as it takes me back to my earlier days of making music.”
Tune in now.
