Soul:ID - The Afropean Soul Music story|When three artists originally hailing from Africa, Tchaï (Burundi), Dad’D (D.R.Congo) and V (Rwanda), united with Producer Urban Deep (Austria/Belgium) to form Soul:ID, this refreshingly unique collective created what they define as “Afropean Soul” music. |Even before the commercial release of their debut album “Sex, Love & Philosophy”, Soul:ID managed to get global airplay on more than 450 radio stations, stirred up a buzz on 4 different continents and had renowned HipHop label ABB Records (Dilated Peoples/Little Brother) picking up their album as their only European act ever for the US market. |American and European press compared their debut to be in the same league as Jill Scott, Lucy Pearl and Loose Ends while African media sees in them a symbol of a peaceful and refulgent Africa of this new millennium. |Wyclef Jean, Craig David, Youssou N’Dour, Robert Palmer and Zap Mama are already on the list of artists they have collaborated with. |After whirlwind tours in America, Europe and Africa, it is clear that Soul:ID, the surprising union of three lead-vocalists/producers and a drummer/producer, has a lot in store for us - promising to continue seducing the world with their recipes of soulful vocals, gut-wrenching bass-lines and serving as a positive example of a beautiful and stylish multicultural society. |Preview and purchase their album: |www.soul-id.com |
