Multifaceted musical artist Pru Fiddy joins the Fortune Signal roster with a soaring house release. On 'The Time Is Now EP,' Pru Fiddy showcases her piano prowess with soulful chords at the fore. The title track’s piano is augmented by a meandering bass line and lush pads forming a stage for her rich vocals. The lyrical refrain, reflecting on the importance of letting go of past experiences to make way for growth, harkens back to her old-school house roots.
The title track gets a remix from Lisbon-via-New York producer Malik Hendricks, who has made waves this year with his ‘Praise’ EP on Off Track Recordings, which was heard in Heléna Star's Boiler Room London set. The Bliss Point, Coloring Lessons and Darker Than Wax artist delivers a deep and driving treatment that transforms the original track’s chords and vocals into a pumping moment of dancefloor bliss.
Pru Fiddy has an intuitive understanding of house music thanks to her years of contributions to the culture as DJ, radio presenter, booking agent, writer, and photographer. Her 2020 debut track "Always Thinking of Ya" straight away sat on a SoSure Music compilation next to Frankie Knuckles and Tony Humphries, followed closely by a collaboration with house music stalwarts Soul Central, on "Rise Again." Her strong foundation has since guided her through multiple releases that have garnered acclaim from Moplen, Lenny Fontana, and Dave Lee.
