Last month rising artist Gabriel Eva shared her soul pop single ‘HEY!’. She now unveils an alternative mix to the song. More of a remake, the tune is transformed into a future house / nu soul gem. Spacey synths topped with funky guitar licks all sit comfortably atop 4×4 drum kicks. Silky and chic, ‘Hey’ follows Eva’s 2018 debut EP RISE UP. Check it out.
Regarding ‘HEY!’, Gabriel Eva said:
“I wrote HEY! in my mums living room sitting on a snug rug by the fire in Colchester…I always write easily at home. The chord progression came first, I’ve been writing on my electric guitar for a few years now and love the process. It’s one of those songs that just feels so good to play live and is easy to relate too. I took it to Riverfish Music and Joe and I brought it to life. I’m glad to have a sick bass line of his on there. Working with Joe in the studio is a dream, you can see the sea from the studio and breath in the fresh air…Joe did an alternative mix, which is just pure vibes and inspired by Frankie Knuckles, I can’t wait to see people dancing to it.”
