Mustafa "Ginga Brasileira" (Staff Productions Records CD Promo)
 |
Previously only available in Japan, Mustafa's wonderful album "Ginga Brasileira" is finally available around the globe. The album not just offers house - there is much more to discover: a marvelous blend of latin, jazz, house and even hip hop, both down-tempo and up-tempo. All of the songs showcase Mustafa's musical taste and production skills, with many of them including influences from his Brazilian roots and being very inspirational. And with people like Dom Navarra, Groove Assassin, MJ Cole, Anto Vitale and others contributing to this release, its one not to be missed.

Exclusive Preview: Paris Brightledge & OGC " Michelangelo" / "(Love) complicated" (CD-R)
Here we have two currently unsigned exclusives for you, courtesy of Chicago based production team Organic Groove Continuum (Adrian Roberts and Brett Owsley) and legendary singer and songwriter Paris Brightledge (he co-wrote and performed the timeless classic "It's alright" released back in 1987 on DJ International Records). "Michelangelo" uses a smoothly stompin', funk drenched backdrop as playground for Paris' sultry vocals and warm melodic chords to create an uplifting feeling. On a more intense tip comes the relentless "(Love) complicated" which is built around a fiercely thumpin' groove that is topped with Paris' unmistakable vocals and lush synths. It's just a matter of time until these two beauties will find a home.

Carolyn Victorian "I'm back" (Consortium Muzik Records CD Promo)
What a marvelous package this is!! A wonderful vocal performance by Carolyn Victorian coupled with a beautiful deep yet laidback instrumentation on Alan Smithee's original version create a mellow feeling. Then you have excellent remixes by the likes of Beppe Gioia who serves a jazz-funk drenched bumpin' vocal alongside a deeper dub, whereas Abicah Soul goes deep and organic with great keys and chords accompanying the vocals. And finally there is an over eleven minute long anthemic rework by Tony Loreto and Jacko that goes as deep as it gets, with an irresistible yet smooth groove leading the way for lush keys and strings, with a killer organ coming in half way through. Not to be missed!!

A couple of weeks ago, the brand new House Masters compilation series was launched by ITH Records, looking at the work of Louie Vega, one half of the legendary Masters at Work. Now volume two sees the light of the day, showcasing the Parisian DJ and producer Bob Sinclar. Ever since he created "Gym tonic" in 1997 (which became a number one hit single), he had worldwide hits on a constant base such as "My only love", "Feel for your", "The beat goes one" or "Kiss my eyes". And then in 2005 came "Love generation" featuring Gary 'Nesta' Pine on vocals, probably his biggest hit today that sold in excess of 1.2 million copies worldwide. But there is much more from Bob Sinclar, for instance slammin' remixes such as the one of "Do you remember House" by Blaze or productions for the likes of Salomé De Bahia. The double-CD release features a selection of twenty of the most memorable tracks and remixes from his huge catalog at full length, some of them available in digital format for the first time. |
