Beautiful World (Radio Edit)

West Country gent Jabru is rapidly becoming the connoisseur’s choice, both as DJ and producer. He's caught the ear of Will Saul (who signed 'Church' exclusively to !K7 for his DJ-Kicks mix), Zed Bias (who asked to remix 'Church' the minute he heard it), Joker (who did likewise with his production for Joel Culpepper’s 'Pilot Light'), Optimo's JD Twitch (who commissioned a dub track for his Bucky Skank project), Jamie Russell (who signed an EP to Losing Suki / Hypercolour) – it goes on!

With releases already under his belt for the likes of Tom Middleton's Sound Of The Cosmos, Futureboogie (as Bruh Jackman alongside Hackman), Huxley's Saints & Sonnets, and his own Paradise Club label, remixes for Crystal Fighters and Roots Manuva, and DJ sets for Solid Steel, Hyperdub, Aus, and Rinse FM, Jabru has built a reputation among those who know for finessed and soulful music that packs a hefty soundsystem punch. And the word is spreading...

Anglo-French Duo Konkret Cutz (aka Charlie and Tristan) came together to record in early 2014. Despite being a relatively new partnership, they’ve already developed a deeply emotive and driving sound that showcases their passion for Soulful House and Techno, and which has already begun to get them serious attention, with releases and remixes slated for labels including LBL, Voyeurhythm and Join Our Club scheduled for the coming months...

With their self-produced new album ‘Defender’, Brighton’s Chungking are back to demonstrate all the elements that have made them a connoisseurs’ favourite. Slick and sultry grooves, coupled with serious musicianship. Incredibly affecting lyrics – some abstract and out there, some so direct they’re like arrows into your heart. 

Proper, deep-rooted songwriting that places them somewhere in a miraculous zone between Kate Bush, The Bee Gees and the ‘Drive’ soundtrack, and which could only have come from people utterly in love with pop music in all its forms. And above all, the voice and multi- layered harmonies of Jessie Banks, smooth as silk and tough as steel, which has had critics reaching for superlatives like, “ANGELIC” (Time Out), “PERFECT” (Music Week), “A-GRADE” (Mixmag), “REMARKABLE AND DROP DEAD GORGEOUS” (Mojo) and “BRITAIN’S FINEST FEMALE SINGER” (Sunday Times).

The band’s core of Banks, Sean Hennessy and Ben Townsend are building on a career spent sneaking into people’s affections with songs that subtly weave themselves into listeners’ lives. They’ve collaborated with pop overlord Richard X and WARP records’ techno-soulman Jamie Lidell, while Jessie by special request provided vocals both for tracks and live shows by Royksopp and the beautiful single ‘Cherry Blossom Girl’ by Air. 

They also provided the soundtrack to the climactic final scenes of dark US TV drama ‘Nip/Tuck’, and contributions to the soundtracks of ‘Ugly Betty’ and ‘Grey’s Anatomy’.

Chungking’s sound is more consistent and timeless than ever – able to take in everything from The Carpenters to Vashti Bunyan, psychedelic soul to Italo- disco, John Martyn to John Travolta, but still always completely and unmistakably Chungking to the core.
