Soulroots Joins Burst Artists!

We are very excited to welcome @soulrootsmusic to our Burst Artist's family!

Randy Matahelumual, as Soulroots is called in his daily life, was born and raised in the Netherlands. However, he has roots in the Moluccas and instead of being called a half-blood, he prefers to be called a double-blood. The indigenous roots of his forefathers are embedded in his soul which led to a passion for music.

Soulroots feels obliged to break walls and build bridges when it comes to music. Since he discovered house from (South) African soil, he immediately felt a deep connection and wanted to give it his personal touch. Fusing styles and mixing influences, Soulroots combines the uplifting and melodic elements of deep & soul with the raw intensity of afro and the progressiveness of house to create a sound that’s unique to his own.

Soulroots has released his first album on Madorasindahouse which is a one-to-one reflection of his vision of African influenced house and is full of collaborations with vocalists that inspired him along his journey, with big names such as Zakes Bantwini.

Soulroots also puts his efforts into creating his music nights for over 10 years by the name of LIBERATION, this concept has already made a huge impact on Dutch soil and is classified as a need-to-watch event for House with African influences enthusiasts.
