This lick makes me think of Alexander Robotnick - Dance boy dance

Earl Jeffers returns to his own Mélange imprint with a massive splash. Two soulful house heaters and an alternative mix. But the first of these dancefloor destroyers features the ever-prolific Kaidi Tatham on flute and guitar. 

If you’re not familiar with Cariff’s Earl Jeffers, there’s an ocean of brilliant music to catch up on. Stacks of releases under his own name, and aliases Chesus and Metabeats, on labels like MCDE, Fat City, and Local Talk. Not forgetting his own label, Mélange Records.

Earl has jumped confidently from house to hip hop, jungle, jazz. library music and more, collaborating on the way with artists such as Byron The Aquarius, Action Bronson, Kamaal Williams and K15. Moreover, as one half of Darkhouse Family with Don Leisure, Earl fuses hip hop production sensibilities with live soul & jazz and yet more notable collaborators. 

Better-known for his keyboard wizardry and highest quality broken jazz productions, don’t sleep on Kaidi Tatham on the flute OR guitar. On both he lays it down with the same finesse and feel for what the song needs. As Earl adds, “pleasure to once again work with one of the best to do it! Mr Kaidi Tatham”. 

Artwork is provided by frequent collaborator and good friend of Earl’s, Ral Duke. Ral has been behind artwork for the likes of Griselda Records (Westside Gunn, Conway, Benny the Butcher), Alchemist, and Ghostface Killah, among many others.

On the flip we find title track “Higher”, featuring vocals from Lloyd Everitt, alongside an alternative mix of the same. ‘Higher’ is released on June 12.

Who is Quimbie? He's a mystery man. This isn't his first rodeo, but it just be his finest hour yet, as evidenced by this cut from his excellent upcoming debut album 'Sunday Fiction' on @janxrecords. This immense slice of haunting nu skool 2-step garage shows everything he's great at: plucking choice samples, crafting solid grooves and glazing them with subtle, classy melodic motifs. Look out for the album...

PREMIERE: Quimbie - How To Cry Pt. 1 [Janx Records]

Releasedate: 03-09-2021
After a parentship hiatus, Richard Zepezauer´s n s y d e imprint is back to push new boundaries and save some souls. 
This release is a special one for us. In loving memory of our dear friend who has died too early, n s y d e is putting out this limited Edition Vinyl with Mike Huckaby´s Remix of Skymark - Easy Saturday Night EP (Kevin Reynolds & Mike Huckaby Remixes), which will come out next on n s y d e015.1.
After Mike Huckaby´s tragic death n s y d e had decided to postpone the release in humble respect of the mourning time for this outstanding musician, human and soul. 
⁠
To pay tribute to Mike Huckaby´s high sonic standards, his work its presented in the highest quality, full sided, 45rpm, 180 gram, clear Vinyl, in a limited quantity.

This Remix is in our opinion amongst Mike Huckaby´s best productions.It touches the classic soulfulness of a Larry Heard piano and blissful vocals combined with clear hints of Basic Channel´s eternal electrificationing waves of sound. 
This is a perfect testament to Mike Huckaby´s unparalleled knowledge and wide musical range, and not only those who knew him will feel his clear precence while listening to this beauty. 

N s y d e will continue to bring back the family by unifying diverse artists from all angles of the electronic music familytree. House Nation under a Groove. 

Next release on n s y d e will be the full release:

Black Jazz Consortium aka Fred P aka FP-ONER aka d- -b.  Few artists garner as much deserved attention and accolades as this former New Yorker.  Prolific as the day is long: delivering timeless afro-forms of rhythm and chorus: calling and responding to the past while in constant motion.  Fred P is a consortium, a coalescence of the past brought to this future present.  Like his body of work, it’s Hi-Tek soul distilled, complimented and reborn.  

Indelible artists have always borrowed from the greats. It’s the folk tradition that is the blues and jazz’s functional quality. To be spoken and expounded upon.  Evolution of Light is no different.  It stands on the shoulders of giants through four decades of contemporary American music.  Each Fred P release reminds us why this music of ours is the next iteration.  A linear addition to our endless chorus of drums, dance and soul. 

Evolution of Light isn’t so much an evolution of the past but a standard to hold alongside those who came before.
