Julian Jonah Featuring Candace  Woodson- I'm Steppin' Out 2022

Birmingham-based DJ and producer, Danny Canaan aka Danny Kane is the master of linking the past to the future, and his debut album ‘We Come In Peace’ on Midnight Riot is destined to be the soundtrack of the summer and beyond. 

With 16 tracks including original compositions, remixes and collabs, it displays Kane’s depth as a highly-skilled studio don and multi-instrumentalist, primarily playing the bass and piano.

A bonafide funk guru, the album is a journey into Danny’s love for all things Funk, Disco and Boogie. The album is packed with shimmering Saturday night synth-fired treats and features some of the most talented artists and songwriters on the scene including Jack Tyson Charles, Jacqui George, Sophie Paul, Princess Freesia & Natasha Kitty Katt with remixes courtesy of JKriv, Qwestlife, Art Of Tones & Yam Who?

With a career spanning more than two decades, Danny Kane’s journey through music has seen him work with some of the biggest names in the industry including Massive Attack’s Sara Nelson, Brit Pop sensations All Saints, Reggae legend Bitty McLean & the uber-talented vocalist Robert Owens while he also co-produced UB40’s hit album ‘Labour of Love 3.’ 

Outside of touring and producing for bands, Danny has remixed huge names like Chaka Khan, Amp Fiddler, Kim English and has collaborated with Groove Armada’s Tom Findlay, Luke Solomon, Honey Dijon plus legendary UK disco boogie band Delegation.

To celebrate the release of ‘We Come In Peace’, Danny will be performing and showcasing his album with a special live PA alongside Sophie Paul Princess Freesia, as part of Midnight Riot’s 10th anniversary tour in London on 1st April at 93 Feet East.

BBE Music presents the first ever digital release for ‘Baby Doll’, a hidden Roy Ayers gem from the 70s, originally issued as a limited 12″ single back in 2003.

Initially intended to be the opening single for the first volume of Roy Ayers ‘Virgin Ubiquity: Unreleased Recordings 1976 – 1981’, somehow the track never made it onto the album itself, so this vintage disco cut has never appeared on digital formats, until now.

Featuring the great Bernard ‘Pretty’ Purdy on drums, ‘Baby Doll’ boasts William Allen on bass and Chano O’Ferral on congas, with vocals, keys and clarinet taken care of by Mr. Ayers himself.

Super talented and unique Australian funk soul collective THE REGIME, recorded the effortlessly beautiful ‘NEVER GONNA STOP’ earlier this year. Soul-filled vocals, a groove and feel set by their inimitable rhythm section, accompanied by guitar, saxophone, piano and flute.
Can this record get any better? With a brand new track on the flip, yes it can! 
‘DEUZY VIBE’ the funkiest of jams: Hearty brass tones, synth riffs, thumping bass line, intricate percussion and ‘call to the dance floor’ chants.
