"Gonna Be Alright" by Omegaman featuring Pat Powell & Katherine Vavahea | Out Now Worldwide: https://orcd.co/gba

Hot on the heels of his recent single “Bring Back The Funk” featuring Emily Molloy, Omegaman returns with “Gonna Be Alright” a soul funk, horn heavy party tune. This track began over a decade ago as a DJ mash-up and Omegaman has been dreaming of rebuilding and creating his own original version since then. The result is a feel good stepper featuring Aussie reggae superstar Patou and the soulful Katherine Vavahea.

Omegaman’s production style can be heard in the retro guitar chords and crisp breakbeat layered with tons of live vintage instrumentation. With the soulful chant-like vocals by Patou playing off of Katherines “take-em-to-church” call and answer, the track grooves and bounces with a nod to 70s disco funk mashed up with a some 90’s big beat. Working in the studio with Omegaman were some of Sydney’s finest musicians, and singers, including Rhys Franklin, CJ Toop, James Swanson, and Paul Murchison, who all added their flavor to this funky stomper of a track. Its gonna be alright!

For those that don’t know Pat “Patou” Powell is a legendary Australian musician, of Jamaican descent, who manages to be in 15 bands spread out between Sydney and Melbourne. He was recently featured in his own Documentary “In Black & White”, covering his more than four decades in the Music industry. Omegaman has worked closely with the accomplished vocalist on a number of creative projects and really enjoy collaborating together. Known as Sydney’s own soulful songstress, Katherine Vavahea tackles relevant cultural and environmental issues in her music. She and Marc have teamed up for several projects over the last decade with Omegaman producing her album “Mama’s Soul Kitchen.” and featuring her vocals on his Rocksteady EP released almost five years ago on Fort Knox Recordings.
