Soul-Funk Collab Heaven: New Single + Video Silas Futura with Fable 'Ctrl S'

16 December 2022 - 0 Comments

Two of Tāmaki Makaurau’s finest underground creatives join together to drop an infectious, feel good vibe with fresh and funky dance track Ctrl S.

With a signature four-count start reminiscent of Pharrell, the smooth, loving vocals glide over a sturdy soul-funk bassline and guitar, with the playful hand-clap percussion and drums carrying the whole song to a vibe akin to that of The Free Nationals and Silk Sonic.

The two have been long-time collaborators, and Ctrl S is a track they initially started work on a few years back before the pandemic saw it shelved. Picking it up again earlier this year, the bouncy single was finally finished, and wrapped up with a video shot out at beautiful Piha beach.

Says Silas: “This song has been in the works for a while now. I think we started in 2019 but it all went a bit quiet when everything shut down. But I always knew we would return to this one, it’s one of my favourite songs I’ve ever written.”

The uplifting energy of the funk-pop-soul jam is accompanied by a bright and playful music video featuring Fable and Silas dancing in unison, and calling out to their loved ones along Piha Beach. A crazy good bop complemented with a video that showcases the authentic friendship of the two musicians bookends just how good this collab is. Crazy good.

“It was really amazing working on the music video for this one. I’ve done so many music videos now, and something always goes wrong. But this day, absolutely everything lined up perfectly. We had such a great time together, and the video really reflects that.”

The musical evolution continues for Silas Futura, and this prolific, talented creative will continue to unfold and expand as we roll into 2023 and beyond.

Watch. This. Space.
