Performing and working with such artists has enabled Tasita to learn about the music business, build her profile, and plant her feet.
In early 2014 Tasita released her first debut EP and single with remixes, a long awaited goal she has wanted to achieve for many years. TheELEMENTS EP and CHANGE MY HEART single and remixes were well received and saw Tasita’s first project hit No. 4 in the UK underground Soul Chart. The CHANGE MY HEART Remixes feature versions by Tasita’s long time Producers/Friends and collaborators such as from Kyoto Jazz Massive, DJ Kawasaki, Distant People & Chops Man and Challi Murphy. The EP, single and remixes had several radio chart positions and were play-listed on many radio stations with interest coming from the UK, USA, JAPAN, BRAZIL & Europe etc.
