We are proud to share with you the 2nd single from Ezel's upcoming
debut album on Ocha Records, "Secreto". This release is also particularly
special to us as it will be our first vinyl release.
In My Lifetime" featuring Tamara Wellons is Ezel's and Tamara's first
collabo, and these two Ocha recording artists hit it out of the park! A lot of
effort went into the writing, recording and mixing of these songs, and I hope
it shows. This record has been getting alot of love from Joe Claussell,
Louie Vega, Danny Krivit, and Osunlade.
On the b-side Pieces of Me Flexie Muiso on vocals and Yoruba Records artist Quetzal Guerrero on violin join Ezel and help to continue to spread the global soul vibes.
Stay tuned for the Deetron and Osunlade remixes of this amazing song coming
this summer.
Thank You for your support.
Many Blessings,
Carlos Mena
