Oded Nir & Derrick McKenzie Ft. Jenner McKenzie – Alive [Suntree Records]

Suntree Records boss and multi-instrumentalist, Oded Nir and drummer and producer Derrick McKenzie (Jamiroquai) have been great friends for years, often sharing the decks and stage together. ‘Alive’ is the duo’s second collaborative production after the recently released ‘Hot Mess’ single, which both feature on Oded’s forthcoming third album, ‘Indoor Life’. Keeping a family vibe, ‘Alive’ is a catchy song drizzled with dreamy vocals from Derrick’s talented daughter, Jenner, whose sweet soulful tones flow over a dubby downtempo backdrop laced with breezy melodies and a warm bass groove, providing the perfect wind-down soundtrack.
