K Soul Drops Catchy New Track “Endless”
If you’re tuning in to ‘K Soul’ for the first time, we extend a warm welcome as a Soul Companion. Hailing from London, UK, K Soul’s musical journey has been rich, transitioning from Neo-Soul/R&B to AfroBeats and Amapiano. Now, she’s honed her adaptability, carving a niche as a “Global Dance Music Artist” – a title that may sound elaborate, but we believe it encapsulates her focus: All Things Dance Music!
Now, let’s explore ‘Endless,’ K Soul’s debut exploration into Drum and Bass. Initially an R&B gem from her inaugural EP, ‘Petals Of Me,’ released in December 2018, ‘Endless’ has undergone a metamorphosis. Upon stumbling upon the track online, Go$ha reconstructed it into a Drum and Bass rendition that embodies the concept of eternal love—traversing realms of light and shadow, propelled by the waves of air and algorithms.
Talking about the story behind the music video, the artist shares:
“The concept behind the video was really using the London transport scene (specifically a train station) to symbolise “endlessness” London is a busy city and there are constantly people rushing to get somewhere and trains always going by. I wanted to be dancing in 1 position as people rushed around me as I sing about endless love that isn’t rushing to get anywhere because it is always where it needs to be.
Alternately, we wanted the audience to gage freedom and endless loving energy in the mist of rushy chaos, even down to the clothes I am wearing, my green top says “don’t come back” and my second fit is on the dark urban goth side. The visual aesthetic is an oxymoron in correlation to the song, I want people to see what my lyrics say “light in the night”; there is still beauty in all that is whether it is dark or light”
Bay Area beatmaker/visual artist DJ Design returns with new single “I Wanna Be Free” (Below System Records). Washes of synth collide with a dense horn arrangement and snappin’ drums. West-Coast emcee Gennessee guests on the track spitting a lyrical dissertation on the woes of a police state, racial profiling and surveillance.

While more of a behind-the-scenes player DJ Design’s (aka Keith Griego) work has had a sizable imprint on the history of modern hip-hop. As a DJ/Beatmaker and visual artist he has contributed production and art since the late 90’s for notables including The Beastie Boys, Madlib, A.G., Foreign Legion, Rasco, Peanut Butter Wolf and Phat Kat.
As a visual artist, his high point of work with the label was his design of the 12” vinyl cover for Lootpack member Madlib’s side project Quasimoto. The cover for “Microphone Mathematics” featured Design/Griego’s visual representation of Lord Quas as a sort of alien aardvark, which was adopted by the artist and has since become one of the most iconic and enduring
characters in the game today.
