Dominoes
Lance Ferguson

New Zealand-born, Melbourne-based producer, songwriter, guitarist, DJ and recording artist, Lance Ferguson follows the release of ‘Could Heaven Ever Be Like This’, with a bold new take on Jungle’s cult track ‘Dominoes’ and announces that his forthcoming album ‘Lance Ferguson’s Rare Groove Spectrum, Vol. 3’ is set for release on Friday 21st November. 

A fan favourite of modern-day funk and soul lovers, Jungle’s original is reimagined here through the lens of Lance’s Rare Groove Spectrum project – stripped back, amped up and played live with an uncooked, authentic feel that pays homage to the essence of the original. “This is a version of Jungle’s sample-heavy cut given the raw, live Deep-Funk treatment, which I think fits well with the essence of the original,” says Lance. “The idea is to create a piece which might function as an imaginary lost ‘original version’ of the song.” 

‘Dominoes’ offers a taste of what’s to come from ‘Rare Groove Spectrum, Vol. 3’ – the third instalment in Lance’s acclaimed series dedicated to reinterpreting soul, jazz and funk rarities with a live band. The project has earned praise from Gilles Peterson, Jazz FM, Craig Charles, Bandcamp and more. 

Known for his work with The Bamboos, Menagerie and Lanu, Lance has carved a reputation as one of Australia’s most versatile and visionary musical minds. Lance has produced 45 full-length albums and more than 100 singles and remixes for an array of respected labels, including Atlantic, Universal, Warner, BMG, Sony, Tru Thoughts (UK), Ubiquity (USA), Inertia (Australia), Freestyle (UK) and his own imprint Pacific Theatre. His work has earned him Seven ARIA Award nominations and Five APRA Music Award nominations, cementing his influence.
