With a warm and funky new edge, Eric Lau’s Hearts Alive is a fun way to usher in the new year. With throwbackalicious farmiliar favourites, such as Fela Kuti’s “Water” ,Marvin Gaye’s “where are we going”and new gems by Kaytranada’s “If” which is a tribute to Janet Jackson. This mix has a lot of soul, melding Afrobeat with 70’s soul and Bossa beats with electronic anthems that make it easy to keep it festive this December.
