Having teased it with the song \u201cCurly Hair\u201d<\/a>, Ghanaian-Australian artist Immy Owusu<\/strong> finally got to release his eagerly awaited collaborative EP with producer Sensible J<\/strong>. <\/p>\n The EP is titled Spiritual War<\/em> and is out via HopeStreet Recordings. Its engaging title track features Mazbou Q<\/a> (also in the EP is a stripped-down version of this particular song). <\/p>\n Throughout the EP, listeners are immersed in \u201970s-inspired soundscapes. Spiritual War<\/em> features funky percussion, lovely guitars, and smooth vocals, all seamlessly stacked in layers. The listening experience is quite enchanting. <\/p>\n Lyrically, the EP dives into today\u2019s societal issues. \u201cDoom Elevator\u201d, for example, is about \u201ca dream where I was in a house collapsing around me, but I couldn\u2019t get out because the house was my own body.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n Speaking on how the EP came about, Owusu says: \u201cI met Sensible J on my first ever visit to Section 8 in Melbourne. He was spinning artists like The Funkees and Cymande, and up until that point in my young life living on the coast I had never met anyone interested in that kind of music. He was a dream producer of mine to work with ever since I became familiar with his work through Sampa the Great and Remi. We holed up in J\u2019s studio \u2018The House Of Beige\u2019 in Somerville and started workshopping through a few ideas. While we were tracking through ideas we listened to highlife, Zamrock and afro-funk tracks with a little bit of Talking Heads and Sepultura mixed in.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n Stream the whole project below via Spotify and check out the artists on IG: <\/p>\n Immy Owusu<\/a> \/\/ Sensible J<\/a> \/\/ Mazbou Q<\/a><\/p>\n <\/div>\n
