Delasi, the Koforidua-based producer, singer and rapper has released his new single 'Amplifier' featuring Nii Noi Nortey. Prophetic, spiritual and frenetic, 'Amplifier' is Delasi's testimony in musical form. A manifestation of Delasi emerging triumphant after many years in limbo as he searched for a long-awaited breakthrough in the music industry. Produced by Delasi himself alongside Morgan Greenstreet, 'Amplifier' is underpinned by the texture of coastal rhythms indigenous to Accra and tightly ornamented with bustling drum breaks, electronic synth lines and jazz sensibilities. Veteran Ghanaian multi-instrumentalist and sound designer Nii Noi Nortey appears on the track to deliver an explosive and rhythmically intense saxophone performance throughout as it tastefully builds to an emphatic crescendo. Self-described as a prayer, the track's maximalist and percussive instrumentation is cleverly juxtaposed with minimal lyrics where Delasi's faint vocal repeats a series of repeated phrases like evoking the mood and semblance of a meditative chant and religious experience. Harkening to the work of afrofuturistic jazz musicians like Sun Ra and Pharaoh Sanders. Speaking on the track's meaning, Delasi said: ''Amplifier' is my prayer and like with other songs of mine it can scare me because I write things and then it'll manifest in exact detail. The song is basically outlining how hard I've worked and how I need an amplifier to have my desires fulfilled. It's like a mantra and that
