CHAKA DEMUS’ ‘SOUL WHISPER’ SOOTHING TO THE SOUL

Chaka Demus dominated the early 70s and 80s with hits such as ‘One Scotch, One Bourbon, One Beer’, ‘Everybody Love Chaka’, and ‘Worky Worky’, now he has been actively working on several productions under his label ‘Bright Star Production’. In what is described as ‘soothing medicine’ for the spirit, the songs on the album all sought to inspire those who listen. With his main fanbase in Europe and Latin America, Chaka Demus acts as the producer and executive producer on this project.

I wanted to give back to the music that made me in an organic way”, said Chaka Demus.

Among the musicians and singers on the project are Phanso percussionist Dalton Browne; Isha Bel and Lymie Murray on vocals; violin mixed by Mundez of Tuff Gong; mastered by Syantis and engineered by Marvin Taylor. Chaka Demus added, “This project was recorded at my studio in Portmore known as the Positive Vision Studio. We created a space that was reflective and calm so that the artistes could properly compose their songs and further win over the listeners”.
