Goldie Revives Rufige Kru with New Single ‘Still The Same’ Featuring Casisdead and Album Announcement

Explore Goldie's return as Rufige Kru with his new single ‘Still The Same’ and the upcoming album ‘Alpha Omega’.

A Comeback to Remember

Goldie, the legendary breakbeat innovator, is making waves once again. Under his alter ego, Rufige Kru, he has dropped a fresh single titled ‘Still The Same’ featuring CASISDEAD alongside the announcement of his upcoming album ‘Alpha Omega’. This marks a triumphant return to the scene after years of fan anticipation for CASISDEAD to collaborate on a drum ‘n’ bass track.

This new tune is especially significant for CASISDEAD, as it serves as his first release following the success of his critically acclaimed 2023 album ‘Famous Last Words’. The track has been expertly produced by Goldie himself along with SubMotive. This collaboration is a beautiful blend of both artists' unique sounds, promising to deliver something special for fans.

An Intriguing Visual Experience

The music video for ‘Still The Same’ has been directed by Elliott Gonzo, featuring Goldie in a striking role as an AI overlord. In this narrative, he is pursued by a vigilante CASISDEAD, adding a thrilling twist to the viewing experience.

“It was a huge honour to collaborate with these legends in the game,” said Gonzo in a press release. “The freedom and trust I was given meant I could really push the boundaries of what’s possible with new technology, combining animation and virtual production."

The ‘Alpha Omega’ Album

Anticipation is building for Goldie's new album ‘Alpha Omega’, which is set to release on May 16 via London Records. Goldie shared his thoughts on the album, stating:

“It’s a reinvention. We’ve gone back to the source and extrapolated from there. I wanted to create something that absolutely represents what this music is all about … and where it’s going next.”

He further added, “I’ve travelled with James (SubMotive) through every angle of this game and now he’s a formidable partner in the Rufige Kru echelon…. boss levelz.”

Goldie also expressed his excitement about returning to his roots: “That’s a beautiful thing for me. I’ve spent a lot of time honing my craft, developing these concepts, assembling all these moments. But that sense of possibility – what kept me going in the early days – is still there. I’m still as excited by this music and where it can go as I was all those years ago. The only limit is my imagination.”
