Now they present "The Sound of Adaptation", a retrospective of their illustrious back catalogue, with this compilation featuring nothing but the best of it - gems such as "You're so special" by Distant People featuring Tasita D'Mour, "Now is our time" by Asymmetric Soul featuring Ella, "Happiness is taking over" by D-Reflection featuring Seth Sharp or "The one" by Tom Conrad featuring Jaidene Veda to name but a few. Rounding off the package is an exclusive DJ mix from Tom Conrad.

This inspirational production features a paramount vocal performance by Eric King and a masterly orchestration which together spread a soulful uplifting feeling making you yearn for more.

Finally, Midnite Jackers serve an infectious late night rendition laced with lascivious synth melodies. Essential and timeless.

KingStreet present the first edition of "New Breed of Soulful House" which will feature all new original tunes from up and rising artists. Kicking things off is "I remember" by Hubert Street, an old school styled production reminiscent of the legendary New Jersey garage sound which features amazing vocals by Bradley White-Dale. Next are Logistix with the funk drenched "I feel" which features heartfelt vocals by Deon Nathan and dulcet keys over a thumpin' backdrop, coming complete with a deep luscious rework by Samson Lewis. Last but not least, there is "Whispers" by Alex Ander, a deep mesmerizing yet soulful instrumental track also included in an alternate version with added live sax by Bruno Soares to give the track a jazzy edge.

Back in April 2007, Blak Ink Music was launched with Wil Milton & Rodney Carter's highly acclaimed album "The Songbook of Love", now the impeccable songwriting duo returns with part two, picking up where part one left off. Meaningful lyrics coming from the bottom of the heart, expressively performed as only Rodney Carter can do, featuring the precious signature orchestration and arrangements by Wil Milton, and fusing various influences to take their unique sound to the next level - what we have here is a musical masterpiece by Wil Milton & Rodney Carter which will stand the test of time. Highly recommended not only to any lover of house music, but to everyone looking for soulful dance music with a meaning.

George Mena (aka Mena Keys) has become a household name in recent years both for his own work as well as his productions and remixes with partner Franke Estevez as Fuzion, now his about to launch his own label MK Records. He teams up with Marlon D on the labels debut release titled the "Sparks EP" which includes four tracks from the upcoming long player of the duo, all of which feature an illustrious live orchestration and incorporate influences from different genres such as latin, jazz, broken beat and house to name just a few. The result speaks for itself - an ingenious truly multifaceted piece of music which we believe is the perfect way for this gifted musician and producer to launch his label in proper style. And for sure it will make you yearn for more...

Over the years, Colombian native musician Jay Rodriguez has been involved in various house music projects (most notably Groove Collective, a project with Bill Ware on the legendary Eightball Records and Batidos where he collaborated with Ron Trent), now he triumphantly returns with his own label Pambele Records. The debut release titled "Without you" is sheer musical bliss, giving us a glimpse of what to expect in the future - nothing but serious masterly orchestrated music. The 'Original Mix' is on a laidback down tempo tip, oozing with a distinguished jazz vibe that is taken to the next level by DJ Romain on his 'Deep & Lovely Mix' which gives the song a kick-ass smoothed-out four-to-the-floor feel that stays true to the jazzy composition of the original.
