April Bandcamp Friday

The fabulous monthly initiative that Bandcamp set up exactly a year ago to support musicians during Covid-19, is back on Friday 2nd April so please pay our Bandcamp store a visit and pick up some Makin’ Moves exclusive goodies!

Firstly, you can pick up the second single to be released this year with the ‘Godfather of Gospel house” Kenny Bobien. As always, Kenny’s lyrics are filled with energy and positivity which is very much needed throughout the last year of 2020/21. ”I’ve come to far , I won’t give up, I won’t turn back, I’m MOVIN’ ON”. These meaningful lyrics laced down over a uptempo & quality re production from our man from France, Arnaud D. This one is surely to go own well an catch a vibe wherever played.

Also, our good friend Manoo is back with his afro-tinged remixes of “Show Ya”. Originally produced by Reggie Steele from New Jersey in 2020, Manoo brings forth his signature afro & hypnotic vibe to this version yet still compliments the soulful vocals by Christie Love, with a dub mix that will definitely keep heads moving.
