GRVNC07 - @WilliamFlorelle - Vessel EP (Incl. Roy Vision/ Beringei Remix)

NEW WILLIAM FLORELLE'S VESSEL +> OUT  September 30th 2022 on Groovence

William Florelle is a London-born, Lisbon-based, songwriter, producer, and DJ with mixed Nigerian and Swedish Heritage. The project aims to blur the lines between many contemporary soul-driven styles including afrobeat, jazz, R&B, and more club-focused dance music.* 

JW. Carew, (Aka William Florelle) has always been entranced by the deliberate syncopation in music. Stemming from an early love for afrobeat and growing into an appreciation for all styles that share similar cyclic qualities, he is drawn by the meditative state that is a result of the minimal. His debut EP ‘Two & Three’ (WotNot Music, home to K15, Glenn Astro, and more) received high praise as it crisscrossed between the dance floor and soulful R&B.* 

His latest forthcoming releases 'Vessel' & 'Stuck', continue to explore areas where his vocals provide distant and airy songwriting on top of house and broken beat-inspired grooves forming a mishmash of organic and electronic-driven dance music.*

William Florelle’s music has been featured on BBC Radio 1Xtra, BBC Radio 6, Worldwide FM, NTS, RA, Clash Magazine, Stamp the Wax, Music is My Sanctuary, Bolting Bits and more.*

GRVNC07 - William Florelle - Vessel EP (Incl. Roy Vision & Beringei Remix)

This special one off collaboration sees Berlin prodigy Max Graef, coupling with globe trotter Fantastic Man aka Mic Newman. With Mic living in Max's broom cupboard for a few vodka soaked weeks in Berlin last autumn, there was a beautiful inevitability that some music would outcome. The lead track "Soothe Me" is no noodly shrinking violet, but a grade 10-cross-genre-dance-floor-destroyer which Andy snapped up for label on first listen. Clearly taking it's inspiration from the Rhodes and sample drenched Sound Signature Detroit label and adding in live instrumentation, tape effects, for a track rich in Steely Dan sensibility, coupled with a sub bass and twisted lead line dragging us into a new year. The B-Side Relaxin' At The Flip is a raw slab of analogue goodness, flying 606 high hats, a tough kick drum and simple elements driving the track forwards, best heard 8am in a dark corner of a club.

Anthony Nicholson aka Miquifaye is deeply rooted in the movement of taking music and art forward in the city we call Chi-town, across the globe and around the world. Anthony has a discography that has been one of the most respected and sought after collections in dance music.

Mark is an artist in constant evolution, reaching for that next level, to call him prolific is something of an understatement.

* Pre-order: https://flumo.bandcamp.com/album/fltd015-cosmic-echoes

Flumo and ANMA Records join forces once again - this time for a collaborative project between UK based Contours and Yadava. Cosmic Echoes was built over numerous jam sessions fusing live percussion, bass, drum machine, synthesizers and field recordings to create a raw EP full of soul and warmth.

‘Start First Finish Last’ opens up with smooth keys and alluring bass solo. The drum and percussion interplay keeps the up beat rhythm flowing, allowing for the bass to enhance on a Balearic and laid-back dance groove. ‘
‘Udu' takes the vibe on a more beat-driven road, with interlocking Kit and Udu patterns, floating keys and rolling synth arpeggios cutting in and out of the groove. ‘Speaking Through Broken Shells’, gets back on the bass and drum heavy interaction, with lots of influences from UK jazz scene.
 
The B-side starts off with a more familiar house groove. ‘Low Slung’, is a nod to the eyes down moments on the dance floor, with raw hats and shakers swirling around synth swells and heavy synth bass for introspective bliss.
‘Cascades’ swaps over to an atmospheric soundscapes, with plenty of stereo play and rich sound quality, making it easy to get lost in a jungle of flutes, keys and rain-line percussion notes.
 
NIAN’s remix of Cascades, takes the atmosphere up a beat and subs the rolling bass with broken beat rhythm, while Skygaze remix, of the same track, adds liquidity and reshapes the atmospheric sound into a more dance floor orienting mix.

PREMIERE: Contours & Yadava - Start First Finish Last
