Kepi Ghoulie
Start Me Up (Single)
The ever-eclectic Kepi Ghoulie, a true music devotee, is dropping a brand-new single that might make you do a double-take—in the best way possible! This time around, Kepi takes a delightful detour into the world of reggae. Due to his deep-rooted love for the Rolling Stones and his nearly two-decade-long connection with reggae/ska royalty artists The Slackers, it feels like a perfectly natural and utterly refreshing evolution.
Side A brings a vibrant reggae spin to the Rolling Stones classic, "Start Me Up" – a track with its own early reggae whispers! Flip it over, and you'll discover a soulful reggae reimagining of Prince's "When You Were Mine." This exciting project came to life through Kepi's collaboration with his longtime friend and producer, the one and only Agent Jay of The Slackers (aka Crazy Baldhead). To top it all off, the 12-inch single features a bonus dub version (available on vinyl only through Stardumb Records) of both tunes with stunning artwork by Stefan Tijs. Consider this release a scenic and utterly enjoyable side trip on the fascinating musical journey that is Kepi Ghoulie's life. Dive in and enjoy the irie vibes!
