Speeka - Bonfire
Born as a live offshoot of respected club night, Scratch, the Speeka project moves away from linear, programmed beats into the realms of live, organic soul. Speeka’s tender lyrics are swept along beautifully by Ben Parker’s gentle timbre and Polly Paulusma’s softly rolling melodies.
Following major label complications after their debut LP surfaced in 2001, Rob Mac and Matt Smooth release Bonfire via Wah Wah, those humble givers of consistently brilliant, off the wall soul music.
Bonfire is a warming brew of sleepy rhythms melted slowly with hushed, whispering folk.
