Versatile and talented recording artists Patrice Murrell and Benjamin ‘Benje’ Alexander – both members of the best band in The Bahamas, Visage – have released new singles on the ‘High Point’ rhythm, produced by Alexander. Patrice’s single “Rest of My Life” began quite humbly following a conversation with Benje during carnival season at the Bahamas Masqueraders Mas Band Camp.

“We were listening to some of Benje’s tracks in my car and I told him I was interested in doing a dancehall track, because I wanted to try something different,” said Murrell during an interview with Pulse yesterday. “Someone prominent in the local music industry suggested to me, Patrice, why don’t you try a dancehall track? I was looking for the right track and Benje was going through his music on his laptop. He came across this rhythm while we were at Bahamas Masqueraders ‘vibing’ to music. I told him I love that rhythm and so I started humming along to the song. Benje said, what’s that song you are humming? I said just a little something I came up with in my head and Benje said, record it with your phone right away. That was the start of what eventually became ‘Rest of My Life’.”

For Murrell, the vibe of the track was really positive and uplifting. “It made me thing about when you love someone so much that you would anything for that person; you want to spend the rest of your life with that person.”
