New York-born producer and musician SYNACURE has released his latest track “Brooklyn Healing” via his independent record label ZIQ STREET RECORDS. An outer borough sequel to his debut single “I Luv NYC,” “Brooklyn Healing” taps into the resilience of New Yorkers and the restorative powers of calm and community.

Where “I Luv NYC” championed the cultural diversity and soundscapes of the Big Apple and the neighborhoods that make up SYNACURE’s New York, “Brooklyn Healing” draws strength from the people and places outside the gridlocked attitude of Manhattan and looks to Brooklyn which has a vibe unlike anywhere else in the world.
“‘I Luv NYC’ was originally an 11-minute love letter to New Yorkers telling them to keep on truckin’ because we have been through so much and yet we’re still here keeping it real. There was so much to say that I couldn’t figure out how to get it all in,” shares SYNACURE. “While writing it, I’d regularly bike over to Brooklyn to see friends, shoot videos, or just get out. The difference in vibe from Manhattan, where I’ve lived almost my whole life, was obvious. In Brooklyn, the buildings are lower, you can see the sky, and there are all these different neighborhoods. You can let your guard down – that was my ‘Brooklyn Healing.’”
“Brooklyn Healing” arrives on the heels of soulful fan favorite “Who Are We Now?” which features legendary hip-hop originators Abiodun Oyewole and Baba Don Babatunde of The Last Poets in a politically charged commentary on the divisive, spiritual crisis in the world.

Building a reputation for unusual structures and melodies, SYNACURE gene-splices rhythms across an array of globally sourced musical inspirations – including African, Latin, funk, disco, hip hop, house, and more – into sonically lush landscapes with unmistakable aesthetic purpose. Developing his own hybrid electro/organic sound, SYNACURE stands for music that builds communities and is as diverse as it is collaborative and transgressive.
Launching his label, ZIQ STREET RECORDS, inspired by his own globally minded ethos, Bryan Lurie – the producer who is SYNACURE – champions music and musicians from all backgrounds in his commitment to raising consciousness through music. ZIQ STREET RECORDS and SYNACURE are leaving a mark that is international, funky, psychedelic, electro, and current, and are steadfast in their belief that people who listen together and dance together can live, learn, and love together.
