Bobby D'Ambrosio featuring Kelli Sae "Love forever more, Amen" (SoulFuric Records CD Promo)
Finally the full package of this wonderful production by Bobby D'Ambrosio that features a passionate vocal by Kelli Sae has arrived. Bobby's vocal version is pure class, coming your way on a smooth yet fierce tip that is oozing with its soul-jazz flavors. Swiss rising stars Fabulous & Jones serve an uplifting interpretation full of classy strings and lovely chords over a funk fused groove, while Marlon D contributes a deeply rumblin', dubby reworking that has got an irresistible kick that will hypnotize the dance floors within seconds (a beats version for the DJ's pleasure is included to). Brian Tappert and Eddie Perez (of Smack fame) team up for the 'B & E Save Our Soul Dub', a groove and relentless take that makes use of lush keys to create a mesmerizing vibe. Finally the 'B & B Prime Time Dub' features infectious synths (somewhat reminiscent of the old Farley & Heller sound) over a relentlessly stompin' groove, making it a peak time essential.

Wil Milton and Rodney Carter follow up last years highly acclaimed "The Songbook Of Love" album with "Don't let go", a blissful journey through wonderful dance grooves full of lush harmonies and passionate vocals, all wonderfully orchestrated and arranged. The songs featured on the album cover different genres, always putting the emphasis on lyrics and melodies that won't get out of your head for a long time to come, with a vibe that is soulful yet at the same time captivating. Its all bout the pure musicianship that can be experienced from the first to the last second. Not to be missed. |

Alleviated Records, established in 1985 by celebrated dance music producer and singer Larry Heard, is one of our favorite House Music labels. Their debut release was the now classic "Mystery of love" by Loosefingers (later changed to Fingers Inc. when released on DJ International Records to become a worldwide hit). Probably their most known release is "What about this love" by Mr. Fingers from 1989. This track instantly became a favorite on dance floors all over the globe.
The label is responsible for many more classic such as "Shine" by Kriss Coleman or "Prove it to me" by Ron Wilson. The label went inactive in 1991, but gladly returned a couple of years later with some great releases. Since late 2007, most of their catalog is available in digital format through DanceTracks Digital. Check out our special mix show showcasing some of their best releases to date. |
