Blur The Lines

F.I.D.E.L is the avatar project of Paris-based composer/producer, DIlouya, UK Soul Legend, John Turrell (Smoove & Turrell) and Hip-Hop/Soul major force, Sly Johnson (Saïan Supa Crew). On « Odd Things », Dilouya drops another infectious yet sophisticated Boogie banger at the crossroads of Rick James' eccentric Funk and the lush sound of the French Touch. Soulful house singer Larry Houl (D.KO Recs) delivers a sci-fi-tinged performance, expressing his deepest fantasies of extra-terrestrial romance.

Cor.Ece & Bad Colours - Might Could (feat. Dave Giles II)

As the sun dips beneath the horizon, and the moon comes out to play as the night falls…the corrupt becomes more frequent as the night grows…Nocturnal

Gritty, Cinematic, Dark & just pure Deep AF are the words that we feel fit this body of work perfectly. We arrive at Jays final chapter of his first ever EP Universe, connecting all the way back to "Paradise Motel". 6 tracks of dark, atmospheric, head down, club banging scores to guide you through the depths of whats in Jay Sounds mind.

Jay states "I'v been waiting to take my listeners this deep with me for a long time now sonically, but i knew it needed to make sense, had to have a story that connected to the previous 3 chapters. It needed to have a reason of why i was going this deep & this dark. Nocturnal is a world that allows me to do that through storytelling."

Each track title perfectly sets the tone for how Jay flawlessly tells the stories throughout, such as his opener "Stay Away From Dark Alleys" that comes off as an deep 80s house track scored for a John Carpenter film or even the cinematic "Kids Of The Past" that sounds like it came straight out of a "Stranger Things" episode.

Its clear as day Jade Zuberi's "Jay Sound" is truly a student of not only film scoring, but has a deep love to telling stories through his music to take his listeners on a unique journey every time they press...play.

"New Beginning" sees the duo channel West African influences into a utopian tale of endless possibilities and opportunities to flourish. The optimistic lyrical tone is mirrored by uplifting melodies, the dancing flute of Gareth Lockrane, impressive, flowing horn arrangements and the driving percussion of djembe master Yahael Camara Onono (Balimaya Project).
