Rudimental have joined forces with The Martinez Brothers on fresh new peak-time club track, ‘Sitigawana’.
Taken from a new five-track Rudimental EP due for release in July, ‘Sitigawana’ is aimed squarely at the floor, pairing a solid, locked groove with tribal percussion, entrancing vocals – sung in Chichewa by Malawian artist Faith Mussa - and slick guitar chords.
Faith was originally invited to Rudimental’s studio after Piers attended one of his shows in London in 2018, where the band recorded a track for his forthcoming album on Beating Heart. The vocals recorded that day proved the perfect addition to a collaboration the band were working on with The Martinez Brothers earlier this year – and ‘Sitigawana’ was born.
Marking Rudimental and The Martinez Brothers’ second official release together after 2017’s ‘No Fear’, ‘Sitigawana’ forms an exciting primer to a packed Ibiza season for both acts; Rudimental host a residency at Ibiza Rocks every Thursday (July 4 – August 29) and The Martinez Brothers have just announced a series of Cuttin’ Headz label parties at DC10 on June 21st, August 2th and September 6th.
