about

Branko’s continued global journey in search of the perfect song has now taken him to Los Angeles, where he met the rising singer-songwriter Umi Copper to record his latest release ‘Stand By’. 

Branko’s ability to bridge musical genres and geographies is on full display in ‘Stand By’, a song in which the production channels Brazilian baile funk patterns and is perfectly complemented by Umi Copper’s direct and soulful lyrics. This unlikely yet undeniable collaboration paves the way for the anticipated second album of the Lisbon artist, forthcoming on Enchufada in early 2019.

“Umi's voice has a timeless quality that could almost seem sampled from an obscure 60s soul record. Combining his vocal with an instrumental inspired by baile funk might not be the obvious choice but it was impossible to ignore how well it came together.  When we were in the studio in LA recording the song I had the idea for a music video based on the concept of a samba queen as a single character reflecting very human emotions." - Branko

‘Stand By’ sees the renowned Portuguese musician team up with the up-and-coming Long Beach singer-songwriter and producer whose recent debut EP ‘Requiem’ on Black Acre earned him the praise of tastemakers from Pharrell Williams on Beats 1 to Pigeons & Planes and AFRO PUNK. His diverse and unconventional approach to soul was a perfect fit for Branko’s globally-inspired production.

Branko’s new single is complemented by a music video directed by Cláudia Batalhão which was conceived by the producer himself.

lyrics

If I was yours
You would never have to wonder (no)
If you were mine
I would treat you like no other (no)
I see gold in your eyes
Diamonds in your heart
Is bout time you’ve realised
This love of you should stop

Stand by me baby
Come hold me darling
I need your love like Like right now (yeah)
Stand by me baby
Come closer darling
I need your love like
Like right now (yeah)

There’s no glory In being lonely
You are one of one
And you can never
You can never be replaced
No

Stand by me baby
Come hold me darling
I need your love like
Like right now
Stand by me baby
Come closer darling
I need your love like
(I need it, I need it)
Like right now
