GROOVE CURSE by JORDAN RAKEI

Soul Has No Tempo and Jordan Rakei are release of the highly anticipated sophomore EP from Jordan Rakei, Groove Curse !Groove Curse is Rakei’s long-awaited follow up to highly-acclaimed debut EP Franklin’s Room, his modern take on reggae-infused soul music. Groove Curse takes an evolved turn, with a sound Rakei describes as “raw, vocal-driven, groove”. With the first single off the EP, Street Light (to be released August 1st), featuring Berklee College of Music Alumni Gwen Bunn (vocalist and producer of Schoolboy Q’s Collard Greens feat. Kendrick Lamar), the release celebrates the skills of upcoming young musicians who are writing, self-producing and taking full advantage of their vocal and multi-instrumentalist talents. Groove Curse will be the premier release from Brisbane-based record label Soul Has No Tempo, which evolved from a local community forum to an independent label with the purpose of developing emerging music.
