My Way by ONIPA
Our second single this summer titled My Way is a hypnotic, percussive roller that perfectly encapsulates our culture clash sound.
Mali meets Ghana meets Jamaica. In the words of producer Tom Excell: “This track started life as a vocal chant, then guitars doubled the vocal line to create a heavy, riff based, trance-like, hypnotic, repetitious feel. From there we formed the groove, a mix between dancehall and afrobeat rhythms, giving the framework for raga vocals, floaty electronics and Malian guitar interspersions. Mali meets Ghana meets Jamaica. To me it represents the importance of being yourself and following what you believe in no matter what circumstances.”
