After a 2-year hiatus Illect Recordings producer, Sundance, is back with a powerful, jazzy new single some are already calling an instant classic, which nods the head while speaking passionately about the cycles of racial relations in America.

"We just collectively wanted to sit down and make something that we could all be proud of that would stand the test of time. There are a lot of conversations going on right now, and this is our contribution to that conversation. Like Sojourn said 'Some cycles need to be broken'."

Cycles features veteran MC's Sojourn (Future Shock), Cardiac P (Boombox Titans), and Ozay Moore (Lightheaded); while the hook introduces us to Sundance's 11-year old daughter, Ocean Jade (whose face we see featured on the cover). The backing band is formidable as well, with the mighty Stro Elliot on drums, Sundance's father, Ron Gollner on Upright Bass, Chris St. George on Electric Bass, Deepspace5's Sivion on Sax, Jeff Grasmick (of Manuok) on Vibes, Sundance on keys, & his brother-in-law Brett Wagner (Emerson) on Trumpet.

Sundance "Cycles (feat. Sojourn, Ocean Jade, Cardiac P & Ozay Moore)"

Taken from the forthcoming album 'Kon & The Gang', available on 12" and digital formats August 19th. Pre-order:  https://BBEmusic.lnk.to/KonAndTheGang

Vinyl obsessive, renowned DJ and talented producer, Kon knows a thing or two about good music. Dubbed "King of the Edits" by Boiler Room, Kon is perhaps best known for his partnership with fellow Boston DJ Amir, which spawned 'Off Track', surely the most influential compilation series of recent years. Counting Gilles Peterson, Mark Ronson & Lord Finesse among his fans, Kon is well established as a 'go-to-guy' for countless DJs across the world looking for fresh, off-kilter sounds.

His latest project 'Kon & The Gang' is a collection of exclusive, unreleased music from Kon and a variety of his current favourite artists including Truccy, Eli Escobar, Bosq & Seven Davis Jr. Representing the new wave of distinctive and original disco-influenced music which has grown out of the 'edit' scene, Kon & The Gang showcases several 'artists to watch' as this dynamic movement builds momentum. A mixture of effortlessly cool, slow slung disco / boogie and energetic dance-floor gems, 'Kon & The Gang' is sure to delight fans of soulful music old and new.

"Kon & the Gang: a play on words which led to my productions involving some friends as live session players, which then became an idea for this compilation, for which I've asked a few of my producer / DJ friends to contribute original tracks. I'd like to thank them all for doing so. I hope you enjoy them!" - Kon (August 2016)

I've been really enjoying this group lately as they have a nice afro-funk feel to their wide variety of covers & originals. This tune is something near and dear to my heart as one of the first funk pieces I heard & loved, and I think they did a fabulous job covering it! I love breaks, so I chopped the tune up a little & gave those drums some extra shine. Go give them a like over at https://soundcloud.com/funkallisto. cheers!
