PREMIERE: Hamza Rahimtula, Rajasthan Folkstars – Earth

Sabo’s record label, Sol Selectas, presents a sensational collaborative organic house album ‘Origins’ by Hamza Rahimtula and the Rajasthan Folkstars. It’s an Indian folk fusion that combines the artists’ Indian heritage with traditional house music from the Western World.

The tracks on ‘Origins’ album transition between organic house with Indian vocals and traditional instruments, through to jazzy, soulful house, inspired by the classic sound of Chicago.

Hamza Rahimtula is already an established producer who has released music through various Sol Selectas compilations. This is the first time he has done a full release of original material for Sol Selectas, and his tracks can also be found on other prestigious record labels ranging from Nervous Records to his own WindHorse Records. He is also one of India’s most in-demand underground DJs.

All ten tracks—‘Earth’, ‘Sky’, ‘Algoza’, ‘Morchang’, ‘Ishq Laga Mainu’, ‘Kanudo Ni Jaane’, ‘Baras Baras’, ‘Ghumar’, ‘Gypsy Trail’, and ‘Lavar Jivida’—have been made in collaboration with the Rajasthan Folkstars who with this album are making their first official release. Rajasthan Folkstars are a group of Indian musicians who add live vocals and instruments to Hamza Rahimtula’s DJ sets, and this time they have joined him in the studio to augment his album with vocals and live instruments.

We are presenting the opening track, ‘Earth’, a tribute to the planet we all live on, and it has an uplifting mood with traditional Indian vocals layered with Afro percussion.

‘Origins’ album will be available after April 24th HERE.
