Sunrise Circle
Reinaldo Silva
Driving Afro house groove at 122 BPM with hypnotic log drum patterns
rolling percussion
and deep sub bass. Male African vocals lead with short call-and-response chants and chopped vocal stabs as hooks. Sparse melodic synth plucks answer the vocal lines; tension builds with filters and risers into explosive drops. Arrangement loops easily for DJs
keeping the energy high and tribal on the dancefloor.

[Intro]
Hey-ya
Hey-ya
Hey-ya
Hey-ya (oh yeah)
[Verse 1]
Dust on my feet
Red ground
Hard beat
Hands to the sky
We rise
We rise
Voices around me
Circle so tight
Eyes closed
Stomping
Fire in the night
[Chorus]
Hey-ya

Round and round in the sunrise circle
We go higher

Feet on the earth
Heart like a drum
We go higher
Higher

[Verse 2]
Call from the hills
Answer from the plain
Sweat on my neck
Don’t know your name
Still we are one
Body to body
Lost in the chant
Sweet and holy
