I Dream Of Bahia feat. Elani / Get On Up feat Roxie Ray
RAY LUGO's L.E.S. EXPRESS - "I Dream of Bahia feat. Elani" / "Get On Up feat. Roxie Ray" out now on 45/Digital Download
Ray Lugo, the man behind KOKOLO AFROBEAT ORCHESTRA, launches his new solo project with Roxie Ray (Dojo Cuts) and Brazilian newcomer Elani. A killer 45, featuring two of the most promising female vocalists in today’s scene and sure to keep many a discerning DJ happy. On the A-Side we find Brazilian newcomer Elani, waxing nostalgic about the mythic Bahia while working her sultry vocals through one of the grooviest tracks heard in a long time. The flipside features none other than the mighty Roxie Ray, vocalist of current Aussie sensations DOJO CUTS. “Get On Up” confirms why she is making headlines outside of her homeland, as she effortlessly commands this marvelous deep-funk nugget. If this is only the beginning, then we have much to look forward to from Ray Lugo’s L.E.S. EXPRESS. A true must have!
