Soulroots

Randy Matahelumual, as Soulroots is called in his daily life, was born and raised in The Netherlands. However, he has roots in the Moluccas and instead of being called a halfblood he prefers to be called a double bloos. The indigenous roots of his forefathers are embedded in his soul which led to a passion for music. Soulroots feels obliged to break walls and build bridges when it comes to music. Since he discovered house from (South) African soil, he immediately felt a deep connection and wanted to give it his own personal touch. Fusing styles and mixing influences, Soulroots combines the uplifting and melodic elements of deep & soul with the raw intensity of afro and the progressiveness of house to create a sound that’s unique to his own.
