Joshua Idehen - Could Be Forever (Prins Thomas Diskomiks)

As summer properly arrives and the heat makes people want to dance in the street, Prins Thomas demolishes and rebuilds Joshua Idehen's 'Could Be Forever' as a beautiful percussion heavy piece of dreamtime Balearic music that pumps and glides, sitting comfortably alongside Boy's Own mixes from back in the day. The perfect music to help take over your street for a night or two.

Talking about the remix, the original of which appears on his recently released debut album, 'I Know You’re Hurting, Everyone Is Hurting, Everyone Is Trying, You Have Got To Try' which was out in March, Joshua said:

"This is two stories: my neighbour from my old flat in Grondal. His partner has dementia. One time when we shared a lift, he mentioned how she likes to go for walks so she has a phone on her in case she ever gets lost, but now they’re worried she might not even remember to call. The other is about a toilet attendant i met at Hootenanny Brixton (For a time, most of the toilet attendants in nightclubs around London came from my hometown of Benin City). His name was Osahon. He said back home, he was a dentist."

His musical partner, Ludvig Parment added:

"I remember this one being one that we had a lot of discussions about and Josh originally wanted me to extend the verse with like 20 bars because he had a long story about rappers. So I was a little bit… curious, when he finally came in to record the vocals. But then he came in with those verses that I think are among my favourite lyrics of all time. I also finally got to play the vibraphone that’s been taking up like half the space of my studio for two years and mostly been functioning as a table."

Having recently completed a U.K. / EU tour, which included a celebratory sold-out show at London’s KOKO, Joshua heads out in the summer to play a number of festivals before another headline run in November.

Joshua Idehen - Could Be Forever (Prins Thomas Diskomiks) is due for release on June 23rd via Heavenly Recordings.
