Demos & snippets | Laurent Stuber

This one’s a BIGGIE!!!! Peppermint Jam is proud to present: Matthias Heilbronn & Monique Bingham - “Something“ Matthias Heilbronn is a long-time friend and Peppermint Jam All-Star member. From his recent chart topping re-work of Teddy Pendergrass - “Can’t Hide“ , Paid & Live’s “All My Time” feat. Lauren Hill, his self-titled release “Funky Shit“ to his amazing project Deep Zone with Mike Delgado creating some of house music’s all time classics, this man has a proper house music history! From his early days, being tutored by Francois K. to working alongside Todd Terry, Tommy Musto and Peppermint Jam’s head honcho Mousse T. himself, Matty has done and seen it all. Monique and Matthias first met during their collaboration on Abstract Truth’s “ We Had a Thing”, arguably one of the most influential soulful house records of the decade and went on to release a number of songs including “Now What” on Dave Lee’s imprint Z- Records and “Go Getter” on Papa Records. Bingham went on to release tracks with the “who is who” of House music, including Kerri Chandler, Quentin Harris, Spen & Karizma, Todd Terry and Louie Vega to name but a few. Her vocal and song writing skills are from another world! We just love everything the native New Yorker does. Just listen to the infectious “Deep in the Bottom” with Black Coffee or her anthem “Take me to my Love” with Ralf Gum and you’ll know what we are talking about. Funny enough and coming full circle, the idea to “Something“ started when Heilbronn was in the studio working on a remix for Peppermint Jam. Teaming up with Shakira’s band leader and house music legend in his own right, Albert “Sterling” Menendez delivering the keys, the two created the original backing and decided to send it to Monique. Bingham fell in love and the result of their collaboration is a serious soulful vibe with some very deep lyrics indeed! When deciding on where to release the record there was no doubt in Matty’s mind that it had to be with Peppermint Jam, where it all started and it wouldn’t have been complete without a Mousse T. Mix. The “Shizzle” Master delivered one of the hottest mixes ever and all that’s left to do now, is to find out who truly is “The Deepest Mothafucker Around“ …

test

J'étudie la pratique de l'orgue Jazz à l'âge de 14 ans à Paris avec Armand Motta (pianiste de Barbara , Brassens) et j'ai mon premier synthé en 1976. Des études musicales en section T1 Musique au Lycée de Sèvres, avec dans la classe : Louis Winsberg du groupe Sixun et  Ludovic de Preissac. Je fais à l'époque partie de différents groupes pop/rock/funk et fais des rencontres musicales enrichissantes à l'aube des années 80 au Studio Vitamines à Gentilly et au Studio Witas à Chaville. En 1988, je découvre la MAO et je m'enferme alors avec synthés et ordis pendant pas mal de temps pour explorer tout ça et commencer à composer sérieusement. Passionné par le Jazz, l'énergie du Funk, j'aime la fusion des styles (electro/acid jazz/drum & bass/musiques du Monde). Quelque temps en 2006 au sein de Atif and Soul People et de Notsos sur Versailles. Mes claviers préferés sont l'orgue Hammond, le Fender Rhodes, le Wurlitzer et bien sur les synthés analogiques au gros son bien funky. 

Les rencontres qui m'on marqué : Rhoda Scott en 1974 au Club St Germain, Bertrand Richard (p.) qui m'a montré mes premiers accords de Blues, Philippe Khalifa (gt.), Stephan Gibu (dr. & bs.) des groupes de funk/gospel "Ray Sidney Firm Soundation" et "Soul Activation", Loïc "Gambas" Bordas (Funkadelic/Parliament) (sax & bs.), Bernard Le Bellego, Emmanuel Barrache (gt. harmo.) des groupes "Quai Ouest" et "Chicago Line Blues Gang" , Patrice Barreau (dr.), les musiciens de 'Atif and Soul People' et de 'Notsos'.

Différents métiers : webmaster, infographiste, vendeur de pianos/orgues (Hammond, Gem, Viscount, Oberheim), Promotion d'artiste. 

Influences :
Herbie Hancock, Bill Evans, George Duke, Eddy Louiss, Ricky Peterson, les légendes de la soul, du funk, du jazz, la NewSoul et la musique électronique.

Une admiration sans borne pour : George Duke, Gino Vannelli, Prince et H.E.R.

Actuellement j'écoute :
Robert Glasper, Cory Henry, Snarky Puppy, Grégory Privat, Alicia Keys, Jonah Nilsson, Terrace Martin, Tilar, H.E.R., Adi Oasis, Alfa Mist, Latanya Alberto...
