Monroe (https://soundcloud.com/hollispmonroe) https://www.instagram.com/hollispmonroe/ Daniel W. Best first heard Louis Baker, a New Zealand-based soul singer, perform "Keep On" as the opening act for Fat Freddy's Drop at the Tempodrom in Berlin in 2024. He knew he wanted to create a remix package of the song. His label partner, Andre Lodemann, was also impressed when he heard the track, so he did a remix himself. DJ Philippa and Hollis P. Monroe also delivered amazing remixes. There is something for everyone here. Stay tuned for Part 2 of the remix package on Best's Friends Music, featuring remixes by Delfonic, Larse, and Gush Collective. Louis Baker is one of New Zealand’s most compelling voices in modern soul. Hailing from Newtown, Wellington, Baker crafts timeless songs with rich vocals, honest lyricism, and deep grooves rooted in soul, R&B, and jazz. His breakout came early—selected from 4,000 global applicants to attend the Red Bull Music Academy in New York—collaborating with legends like Just Blaze, Q-Tip, and Brian Eno. Since then, Baker has made an indelible mark with multiple APRA Silver Scroll nominations (including the standout single Back on My Feet), and a self-titled EP that hit #3 on the NZ charts. His debut album Open (2019) and follow-up EP Love Levitates (2021) drew global acclaim, amassing over 45 million Spotify streams and praise from the likes of India.Arie and Rolling Stone. Live, he’s equally at home in intimate clubs or grand concert halls—performing with the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra, touring across Europe, the UK, and Australasia, and appearing at international festivals including Sziget and Sonar. Deeply connected to his Māori roots (Ngāpuhi), Baker infuses his music with heritage, hope, and heart.
