Music collaboration of the year, Seun Kuti feat. Damian Marley’s single ‘Dey’ gets a dub remix by Gaudi & Don Letts. Listen here: https://recordkicks.lnk.to/DeyRemix
In June 2024 the release of ‘Dey’ feat. Damian Marley, the first single taken from Seun Kuti & Egypt 80’s new album ‘Heavier Yet’ (Lays The Crownless Head)’, marked an historic moment for African unity and art: the Kuti and Marley families collaborating for the first time ever on a record. The highly anticipated cooperation created a bridge between Nigeria and Jamaica and captivated audiences worldwide. Now Record Kicks unleashes ‘Dey (Gaudi & Don Letts remix)’, an infectious “dub remake” of the track courtesy of production duo Gaudi & Don Letts that is now available on all digital platforms.
Grammy nominated dub producer and solo artist Gaudi, whose distinctive work for artists including Steel Pulse, Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry, The Orb, Horace Andy, Groove Armada, Tricky to name but a few, has topped charts around the world. Iconic Grammy Award winning film director, musician and radio broadcaster Don Letts‘ career includes work with The Clash, founding Big Audio Dynamite, introducing reggae to the punk generation and directing countless award-winning videos. Gaudi & Don Letts started work as a production duo shortly after they came together to create ‘Outta Sync’, Don’s first solo album produced by Gaudi. The pair were musically bonded by the project and in its wake have gone on to produce/remix for UB40, Caravan Palace, EMF, Dub Pistols, Johnny Clarke, Kid Loco, Inner Circle, Terry Hall, Meatraffle and now, in a seemingly unexpected but inspired move, Seun Kuti feat. Damian Marley.
Sometimes two plus two makes more than four, Gaudi & Don Letts deliver a killer beat n’ bass heavy floor-filler!
