Artist/Band: Joel Rafidi.
Name: Joel Rafidi.
Single title?: Beautiful Life.
What's the song about?: The song is a metaphorical reflection of my long tumultuously euphoric internal journey towards achieving and recognising happiness.
How long did it take to write/record?: Lyrically the song was a written in a few hours. The recording/mixing process took a couple of weeks, three different studios were used and over a dozen instruments. It was very well cared for.
Is this track from a forthcoming release/existing release?: Forthcoming release.
What was inspiring you during the songs writing and recording?: The human ability to be completely content with the current moment we live in and how so many musicians from different walks in life are able to come together on the one track.
We'll like this song if we like...: If you like music.
Do you play it differently live?: Yes, in the live process due to instrumentation we do as much as possible live though playing with a string-quartet can get expensive so we assign that task to DJ.
When and where is your launch/next gig?: Thursday 14 November! The Standard! Will be the biggest so far. Get there.
