NEW MUSIC | DEKAY RELEASES NEW ALBUM “LIFE’S A BEACH”

By Rishma • On What is New

Dekay’s latest album ‘Life’s A Beach’ is out now. This is the reign­ing EOW Eng­land champion’s twelfth inde­pend­ently released album, and, she says, 12 has always been her lucky number.

All tracks were writ­ten and recor­ded in the 9 months she was expect­ing her second son and she lit­er­ally fin­ished upload­ing them sev­er­al hours before he was born. All the tracks are pro­duced, mixed and mastered by her sons fath­er and her eld­est son fea­tures on ‘Treas­ure’. Her broth­er Anon Music also has a fea­ture verse on title track ‘Life’s A Beach’, so it’s very much a fam­ily project.

This album is also ded­ic­ated to two key fam­ily mem­bers. Dekay’s step­fath­er Ranajit Paul Choudhury, a ded­ic­ated fath­er, hus­band and grandad who passed away a few weeks before his second grand­son was born. In Dekay’s own words, “It’s been a time of mixed emo­tions for our fam­ily. My mum, broth­ers and I will nev­er for­get you…memories nev­er die”.

The album is also ded­ic­ated to Dekay’s fath­er, who passed away a few days before the albums release. Dekay wrote “Seni seviyor­um Baba. I hope to see you on the oth­er side, when time has no hold on us, we are young again and all is for­giv­en.” When reflect­ing on recent times, Dekay says that “Life is short, so enjoy it people. If there’s one thing I’ve really been reminded of lately, it’s that. To every­one I’ve loved and lost; on behalf of every­one who love you still, we will always keep you in our hearts.”
