BuzzJack Music Forum _ Dance _ offaiah feat. Shenseea - Run This Town
Posted by: lewistgreen 1st March 2017, 07:15 PM
offaiah has posted a preview of a new track over on his Facebook https://www.facebook.com/Offaiah/videos/1250001901715410/. Doesn't give much away but he has teased a new single recently so hopefully this is it!

I'm still listening to 'Trouble' regularly, so definitely interested!
Posted by: The Wise Sultan 1st March 2017, 07:54 PM
That preview sounds very funky 
Posted by: PeteFromLeeds 1st March 2017, 07:54 PM
Looking forward to this 
Liking the Mario theme as well!

YAS to minimal vibes!
Posted by: awardinary™ 1st March 2017, 10:41 PM
Hype!
Posted by: The Wise Sultan 1st March 2017, 10:48 PM
Well it certainly sounds a lot different to the usual minimal house tracks at the minute which tend to be bassline or tropical ones.

Hope it's an original song and not some cheap rip off of a Snow Patrol single. 
Posted by: danG 2nd March 2017, 06:13 PM
Really excited for this!
Posted by: djgrafdemon 2nd March 2017, 07:20 PM
well, i've listened to it and it was bland as f, definitely needs more effects/vocals/flashing lights/SOMETHING that has the smallest type of BRIGHTNESS please
Posted by: lewistgreen 2nd March 2017, 07:34 PM
I am legit excited for this whether it's really minimal or not. Think offaiah has a lot of potential!
Posted by: Dobbo 2nd March 2017, 07:42 PM
Trouble was a cracking tune, I'll give this a listen ASAP!
Posted by: lewistgreen 3rd March 2017, 12:17 AM
This obviously isn't Trouble levels of amazing but it's a really good follow up and continues his established sound!
Posted by: The Wise Sultan 3rd March 2017, 08:58 AM
Sounds like something that would have made the charts in about 2001, slight Chocolate Puma I Wanna Be U vibes in it I think.
Excellent tune, can't see it making top 40 though sadly in today's chart climate.
Posted by: Dobbo 5th March 2017, 09:30 PM
Hmmm a huge step back from Trouble but it is an interesting number.
Obvious 1-hit wonder this guy tho so he might has well have some fun!
Posted by: *Ben* 9th March 2017, 06:17 PM
Good song though I heard already a similar sounding song.
More of a club hit then a chart hit.
Posted by: award♀nary 13th April 2017, 12:32 AM
Will this be impacting anytime soon? Still waiting for the music video, but I feel this will be due in the next week.
Posted by: lewistgreen 19th May 2017, 08:14 AM
Music Week has the impact date listed as August 11th
Thought this was going to go nowhere!
Posted by: danG 19th May 2017, 08:27 AM
Must be a vocal version coming up then!
Posted by: awardinary 19th May 2017, 08:33 AM
I've already forgotten it tbh.
Posted by: Dobbo 20th May 2017, 10:16 AM
I'm warming to this a little but it really doesn't sound commercial at all, not sure even a vocal could make it take off (unless it's by Justin Bieber obviously)
Posted by: lewistgreen 13th June 2017, 11:06 PM
Video:
Posted by: danG 14th June 2017, 08:22 AM
A bit late now
Posted by: lewistgreen 14th June 2017, 08:34 AM
Still down for an August impact date though!
Posted by: awardinary 28th June 2017, 09:36 PM
Video already taken down? 
Posted by: lewistgreen 28th June 2017, 10:05 PM
Oh I have no idea what's going on with this release
Posted by: BridgeCow 14th August 2017, 08:05 PM
Vocal coming on Friday, called Run This Town
Surprised they're still trying to push this tbh

Can't they just move onto the next single already. 
Posted by: lewistgreen 15th August 2017, 02:57 PM
Sounds really good from the preview! Still loving the original
Posted by: ⓐⓦⓐⓡ^ 15th August 2017, 03:01 PM
Is that Stefflon Don on vocals?
Posted by: PeteFromLeeds 15th August 2017, 03:57 PM
Thinking this could possibly do something officially - the original was never really given a massive radio push so this could get it climbing the charts!
Posted by: lewistgreen 15th August 2017, 07:29 PM
Think you could be right! But the vocal sound a different. offaiah has confirmed it's someone from Jamaica.
Posted by: BridgeCow 16th August 2017, 08:57 PM
Features Jamaican Artist Shenseea
Posted by: mdh 16th August 2017, 09:22 PM
Hmm. It doesn't sound half as good as the original (which was absolutely brilliant), but maybe it'll grow on me in CDQ.
Posted by: lewistgreen 17th August 2017, 11:00 PM
Yep this vocal version is fab
Posted by: BridgeCow 18th August 2017, 05:55 AM
Ok this is actually quite good
Posted by: mdh 18th August 2017, 07:27 AM
Liking this in full! Anyone else think it's very similar to Instruction both instrumentally and vocally? Not that that's a bad thing, of course.
Posted by: lewistgreen 18th August 2017, 09:24 AM
Not really
And anyway, instrumentally this came first so Instruction did not set the comparable bar
Posted by: danG 18th August 2017, 02:36 PM
What a pointless vocal mix, especially for it coming out way too late but it genuinely works a lot better as an instrumental. Obviously got no chance of being any sort of hit either. Move on to the next song offaiah please.
Posted by: lewistgreen 18th August 2017, 02:39 PM
Preview available because heaven forbid we put a full track on YouTube these days 
Posted by: lewistgreen 7th September 2017, 02:44 PM
Video is being filmed!
Posted by: lewistgreen 22nd September 2017, 09:23 AM
Been wondering lately.. Where's this video at? But then this was posted on social media this morning
We sadly announce that OFFAIAH was involved in a helicopter crash on 9/20 and was rushed to hospital. He sustained a number of injuries including a fractured spine which are currently being treated. We all wish him a speedy recovery.
- Management.
How awful. Hope he recovers soon
Posted by: danG 22nd September 2017, 10:23 AM
Oh no! 
I really hope he's okay.
Posted by: LewisTScream 5th October 2017, 10:31 PM
Yay!
Posted by: HissingSparkler 5th October 2017, 10:48 PM
Well, its the same subgenre of dance music (tribal house).
Posted by: LewisTScream 12th October 2017, 09:33 PM
Remixes from Riton, The Magician and AIRWOLF are out tomorrow
