Exclusive Premiere: Colonel Red & Inkswel “Til’ We Drop” ft. Chris Bass

Music Is My Sanctuary are long time fans of both singer Colonel Red, since his early contributions to the broken beat scene, and multi-discipline beat maker, Inkswel. So we are proud to share this first cut of electro-leaning funk from their forthcoming collab EP, ‘Benjiman’s Ghost Vol​.​1’, due for digital release July 3rd on Inkswel’s newly inaugurated Inner Tribe label. Further words from said tribe below.

“Never leaning on the notion of a mould or convention, Colonel Red Is a phenomenon in the underground soul circuit, blending the segways between Rnb, Broken Beat, Hip Hop and House music- a vocal that is strident in all things forward thinking.

Previously as a vibration labelled Milez Benjamin, these sounds ring out as cosmic echos across the galaxy. Musical ghosts exorcised to modern soundscapes and captured in new future soul frame work from young beat wizard Inkswel. Re imagined for a world in touch with these outer-worldly spirit songs. Benjimans ghost is a reincarnation painted in spirit funk. Inkswel takes a forward thinking approach to these ideas, letting the energies guide into frequencies that are loud but not harsh, soulful yet not soft, head nodding but not thrashing. With additional bass leanings from Chris Bass and horns from Sloth, volume 1 is well rounded and complete but leaves the listener ready for further adventures in outer world soul from the combination of Coloned Red & Inkswel.”
