With “Power of the People (Radio Edit),” ZOOLOOK sparks a sound evolution powered by soul groundedness, funk swagger and the electronic unknown. This isn’t nostalgia either: it’s a rebirth of the protest music’s activist spirit, refocused for todays dancefloors and movements. Vibrant organic percussion and cinematic horns grab you from the first beat and throw you into a groove that is simultaneously timeless and right now.
With analogue warmth and digital precision, ZOOLOOK combines the essence of Marvin Gaye and Parliament-Funkadelic and weaves in Kraftwerk’s synthetic textures. The message delivered via vocals is one of unity and resilience, gliding over driving basslines and shimmering synths with soulful charisma. High, soaring female harmonies cut through the mix of the track, first as a soul stirring affirmation (“you are not alone”), then as ethereal, gospel tinged calls that elevate the track to the transcendental.
“Power of the People” is inspired by the music of the ’60s–’80s that was so socially charged that it was impossible not to do so. Since being raised on vinyl truth tellers, ZOOLOOK (A Multidisciplinary Artist) melds bass heavy funk rhythm’s and cinematic production into a rallying cry that will move your hips and your heart. The radio edit is a potent, streaming ready burst of this energy, while hinting at the deeper journey available in the extended version which is available direct to fans.
It’s more than a song, it’s a manifesto: A reminder that entrenched power can’t beat collective strength. It’s not just about reviving retro sounds though, ZOOLOOK weaponises these into a future facing, genre blurring declaration. Electrifying proof that the power of protest music can be deadly serious, it’s also wildly revelatory, defiant and danceable — with its defiant, danceable echo ringing long after the final note. A must for Fans of Leon Bridges meets Jungle and anyone looking for some funk that means something.
