Gaika – “Drift” (Released 27th October 2023)

Description

//Big Dada//

£31.99 – 2xLP, Limited Edition Red Vinyl (plus DL Code)

Whilst hard to neatly fit in a box, the record feels like an avant-garde blend of electronic, hip-hop, punk and grunge music featuring soundscapes recorded from Gaika’s travels abroad.

Shapeshifting and cinematic in style, Gaika draws inspiration from musical greats; Prince, Wu Tang Clan, Massive Attack, and John Coltrane, with his approach akin to the Pink Siifus, A$ap Rockys, and Dean Blunts of this world. Gaika’s sound spans from grime, dancehall, r&b, electronic, and beyond, often weaving in political commentary through his lyricism.
