David Starfire and Arula Enrich Our Souls with "Keepsake"

David Starfire and Arula team up with Drumspyder and Jef Stott on a new tune dubbed “Keepsake” to help awaken your inner consciousness.

Global Bass Music pioneer David Starfire and up-and-coming Bay Area artist Arula have been making waves in the scene with their unique stylings in the studio that transport you to a different plane of existence. Now, the two have joined forces for a track called “Keepsake” that evokes imagery of a traveling caravan headed to the depths of the unknown with its mystical rhythms and electronic beats. Adding more power to the release, Jef Stott joins the caravan with his Oud in tow, and hypnotic percussion from Drumspyder keeps the pace throughout.

“Drawing from our unique musical backgrounds we felt inspired to create a track that is both fun and evocative as well as haunting and prayerful, an anthem to the earth that we feel celebrates the dualities of both the masculine and feminine archetypes.

But much like many other artists, the current times we’re living in also helped foster a deeper meaning for “Keepsake.” Reflecting on the track, Starfire and Arula went on to say, “To us, the meaning of the track has evolved, and perhaps become even more relevant during these transformational times we are currently living in. The effects of climate change, income inequality, and prejudices have taken center-stage so that we can no longer turn a blind eye; “we must wake up now” – collectively we are invited to remember why it is so crucial we take radical steps to care for the earth and to uplift one another.”
