SoulHouse head-honcho Brian Power collaborates with Ibiza-based production duo Bollo & Chapter to put a modern-day twist on this early 70s funk classic. Originally penned by Eddy Grant, Bollo first transformed ‘Black Skin Blue Eyed Boys’ into a house track back in 2015, with the shrewd addition of Jocelyn Brown’s powerful and instantly distinguishable vocals; with the additional accompaniment of a DJ Spen remix. More recently, Scott Gray (aka Chapter) from Ibiza-famed club brand ‘Melon Bomb’ asked Bollo if they could collaborate on a fresh rework. Their resulting afrobeat remix breathes new life into the track, complementing Brian’s soulful house interpretation to perfection, with Ronnie Herel’s unreleased dub completing this credible 3-track EP.
