The first official remix from the Nikki Nack album has just been released with Lisbon’s DJ Marfox and Rio de Janeiro’s Pearls Negras joining forces to rework ‘Water Fountain’, bringing three continents together.
Having recently helped Oakland-based dance group Rara Tou Limen, whose teaching of Haitian culture was integral to the making of recent album Nikki Nack, to perform and collaborate with local artists in Haiti for the first time, tUnE-yArDs are now focussing on their new charity, The Water Fountain. A fund to help support organizations dedicated to water issues around the world, The Water Fountain will draw monies from their earnings from music and ticket sales and related licensing of songs in movies, TV shows and adverts.
