DNB producer goddard. links with neo-soul vocalist Greentea Peng on new single ‘Downers (Rework)’.
The Midlands producer has enjoyed an incredible 12 months, with his fresh take on DNB causing a ruckus online. Part of a wave of newgen talent dealing with breaks-led futurism, he’s earned co-signs from some of the biggest names in DNB history – such as Andy C and Shogun Audio – alongside viral success.
Scooping Best Newcomer at the 2022 Drum & Bass Arena Awards, he noted up a massive remix of Cat Burns’ impeccable ear-worm ‘Go’ before linking up alongside Venbee for crossover smash ‘Messy In Heaven’.
For his next trick, goddard. links with a long-term Clash favourite. Greentea Peng goes deep, with her jazz-saturated neo-soul songwriting drawing on a deep well of emotion, experience, and creativity. She previously played a Clash Live event, and we’ve watched her progress across multiple releases.
So, this new single is pretty exciting. goddard. causes a DNB ruckus on ‘Downers (Rework)’ with Greentea Peng on hand to supply spiritual balance, her smoky vocals offering poised, peace, and calm amid the soundsystem bedlam.
Could it be a hit? We’d love to see Greentea Peng scale the charts, y’know.
Tune in now.
