To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Ski Oakenfull’s 'Rising Son' album, Primaudial Records presents 'Rising Son Remixes', a 6-track EP of deep cuts, unreleased gems, and long-lost remixes, now available digitally for the first time.
Originally released in 2005 on BBE (UK) and Pony Canyon (Japan), 'Rising Son' was co-produced by Ski alongside Jean-Paul “Bluey” Maunick (Incognito) and DJ Venom. Reissued in 2023, the album gets a new lease of life through remixes by the late great Yam Who? (Andy Williams), UK beat pioneer Dobie, Japanese deep house duo Agora Rhythm, and Ski himself.
It includes soulful and jazz-infused tracks featuring the vocals of Chi Turner and the late Amp Fiddler, with grooves touching house, broken beat, and cosmic disco. This release is dedicated to Andy Williams, a true legend whose music lives on.
Note that a proportion of profits from this release will go to Andy's gofundme page:
