Greentea Peng links with Nightmares On Wax on ‘Top Steppa V2’.
The London artist may be aligned to the emerging nexus of neo-soul meets jazz, but her system roots run deep. Greentea Peng explored this on ‘Top Steppa’, a fan favourite that appeared on last year’s project ‘Greezone 108’.
A fresh take on this song, ‘Top Steppa V2’ finds Greentea Peng aligning with renowned production talent Nightmares On Wax. Digging into their mutual love of system culture, this fresh take on the song is imbued with renewed darkness.
Greentea Peng’s tantalising vocal remains, rebuilt in a staggeringly new context. Nightmares On Wax comments…
“It’s a great honour for me to collaborate with Greentea once again – after she featured on my record last year. I’m such a huge fan of her as an artist and we totally connect with the energy she shares. Top Steppa is already an amazing song, so to be able to combine the Nightmares on Wax sound with this tune for Top Steppa V2 is the perfect musical marriage. After a little back and forth vibing with Greentea, I tapped into that iconic British expression of 90’s hip hop & 70’s roots reggae with a futuristic electronic NOW twist.”
For her part, Greentea Peng adds: “It was really nice working with Nightmares on Wax, a dear friend of mine and incredible musician to retwist Top Steppa and turn it into a completely new track. Big Love!”
Tune in now.
