Producer extraordinaire, Opolopo and talented chanteuse, Shea Soul team up for a serious slice of soulful deep house.

“Be Enough” has all the hallmarks of a modern house classic. Shea Soul delivers a bold vocal performance for Opolopo’s confident urban house groove, that blends garage and contemporary house flavours. 

Opolopo is a musician, DJ, remixer, composer and all-round production wizard, who can turn his hand to funk, house, or future soul at ease, which makes him one of Europe’s most talented producers.

Influenced from early age by Herbie Hancock, Quincy Jones, Jean-Michel Jarre, Isao Tomita, and Kraftwerk, Opolopo now plays as a one-man band from London to Tokyo (equipped with keyboards and vocoder). His music spans over a decade on labels JVC Japan, Warner Brothers, Sony/BMG, Tru Thoughts, Om Records, Local Talk, and Especial Records. Collaboration/remix highlights include the legendary Dazz Band, Craig David, Mr. V, Lanu, Simon Grey, Ok_Ma, Mpho Skeef, Eska, and Sacha Williamson. On the underground tip, his bootleg remixes of Michael Jackson, Marvin Gaye, Diana Ross, and Erykah Badu have music connoisseurs worldwide in a frenzy.

Shea Soul’s musical career has taken a distinctly independent route since leaving the renowned BRIT school. Since then Shea has worked with the likes of Toddla T, Basement Jaxx, Bugs in the Attic, Zed Bias, Calvin Harris, Example, and Shy FX to name a few. Writing and featuring on hit club tracks such as ‘Make it Funky For Me’ with Attacca Pesante, and ‘Perfectly’ with the Layabouts, music has paved the way for Shea. She’s performed to thousands of people worldwide, singing at festivals and stages covering Japan, South Africa, and Europe including London Wembley arena, and Hamburg’s famous Mojo Club, and her writing and vocals have featured on released singles globally. We hope you’ll agree “Be Enough” captures Shea’s unique voice, style and charm in a soon to be prominent addition to her repertoire.

We are very excited to have one of our favourite, rising talent for mix 34.  Introducing @thirdattempt

Norwegian producer, Third Attempt, has wasted no time making his uniquely indelible mark on the subaquatic musical universe. The Oslo-based artist has released impeccably produced music on a tight selection of renowned labels, including finding a regular home on supreme Norwegian imprint, Beatservice, as well as benchmark UK
disco imprint, Paper Recordings.

The depth of his musical wisdom and the influences he carries
into his essential productions are nothing short of staggering. Traversing dreamy soundscapes that blissfully range in tone through lounge, jazz, ambient, trip-hop and house, his work is endowed with a supple musicality that belies his tender age. 

His accomplishments are all the more impressive when you take into account that he's
completely self-taught in music and production – having travelled a winding path deep into the electronic underground following his earliest exposure to the more commercial shades of the spectrum. Journeying through the experimental sounds of Ambient, Trip-
Hop, House, Techno, he's diligently studied masters to arrive at his extraordinarily refined and evolving sound signature.

Tracklist:
Dan Kye - Iigo
Chateu Flight - Prism
Crackazat - Called my name (meet the band)
Crazy P - Do it good (shaboom mix)
Marcel Lune - Disco mantra
Early Motions - Late Night Coffee high
Third Attempt - Serve Chilled
Fouk - Down Below
Angelo Fererri - Postive Humour
Yadava - All the fills

PHYLO MIX N°270

quintessentials 89: black fan - I know I am
12"/digital out early/mid February.

The mysterious Black Fan is back! After his releases on Local Talk and Quintessentials, Black Fan is for sure one to watch in 2024. „I know – I am“ is his most mature work to date and shows his love for House and Techno when it started – New York, Detroit, Sheffield! Black Fan has his roots in the good old rave and early House days and has many stories to tell! He was DJing at places like „The Dance Factory“, „The Eclipse“, „Tolerance“ plus more times at the now legendary „Energy“ parties than he cares to remember, and has kept in love with House and Techno ever since. Be ready for „I know – I am“, a proper New York/New Jersey styled house tune or „deep rotation“ and „TE2“ - raw, deep and detrotish with a touch of UK techno! Ready for 2024!

California native Ray-D returns to Robsoul with a fresh assortment of soulful, jazzy, disco-deep treats. A familiar face on the Robsoul Jazz roster, Ray-D has consistently cultivated the funk and showcased his expertise with samples. Following his acclaimed 2019 album 'Under The City', Ray-D once again takes center stage with his signature sound.

Four prime cuts that exude his hip-hop roots. None more so than the low-riding title track, Body Rock. The tempo picks up with 'Let It Flow', boasting a nostalgic 90s R&B vibe that is impossible to resist. 'Lovin' Every Where' keeps the funk alive with its infectious rhythm, while the final jam, 'That's How It Goes', smoothes out the edges with its warm basslines, handclaps, and soulful keys, culminating in a must-have addition to the Ray-D x Robsoul catalogue.
