Fresh off the heels of his Scorched Earth EP, Buku makes his way back to WAKAAN for “Right Here,” the lead single from his forthcoming EP. Extraterrestrial entities breathe four minutes of life into the wobbly, hypnotic cosmos. Starting with an eerie introduction, the single takes listeners on a sonically bass filled ride. With punishing drops and thunderous techno kick drums, “Right Here” pulls from Buku’s past musical influences for an explosive musical journey. With a degree in Music Technology, it’s clear that Buku’s professional education has benefited him to create yet another roaring hit - just in time for festival season.
“Within this track, I draw inspiration from various flavors of dance music. From thunderous techno kick drums in the build-up, to a main melody akin to old school Pendulum, I reached into my past musical influences to create this track.”
—Buku
With past releases on imprints such as Spinnin’ Records, OWSLA’s NEST HQ, UKF’s Pilot Records, Mad Decent, etc., Buku made his WAKAAN debut in August 2020 with “What You See.” This served as the lead track to his full What You See EP in September 2020, which received acclaim from tastemakers like
