We’re super excited to present the latest artist to join the Dirt Crew stable, French producer Sekou
Babe. He ticked all the right boxes for us with this beautiful debut EP "Foresight Prevents Blindness”
which explores his fresh and vibey outlook on house with sideways glances to smokey jazz, breaks
and garage.
The a-side lines up three varied tunes. “Perspectives of the Youth” and “Soukoun” step in quickly
with lively breakbeat rhythms. The first boasting warm soul vocals and steady bass groove, the
second a melancholic yet uplifting back and forth between vintage piano and warbling rhodes.
“Treize Zero Zero Trois” is a deep and dreamy house jam. Cinematic elements infused with punchy
percussion and 80s sonic touches add up to good times all round.
On the B, our good friend Nachtbraker does what he does best, flipping “Treize Zero Zero Trois”
bringing the deep, dubby Amsterdam vibrations. His version is lush, textural and slightly fruity, with
surging synths, tropical percussion and a stomping kick. Sekou Babe rounds things off with the
extravagant “Crown Collection”, showing us yet another colour in his musical spectrum. It’s trip hop
meets Detroit where warped strings introduce shuffling drums before the track begins to build
layering subtle arpeggios, smooth pads, crash hits and a buoyant melody.
Sekou Babe would like to add that all tracks were written and produced by b.b. at 7e Republique
Studio and says thanks to Peter, Ghizlène, Mohammed and Florian, you beautiful souls.
