Rising talent No-e achieves a career milestone this October, making his maiden appearance on Jamie Jones’ Hot Creations with the three-track A List. It continues a highlight 2021 for the Welshman, which has seen him release on Food Music, Nothing But and several other labels already this year. 

No-e spoke on how the release began to take shape, stating: “This EP came about from a real need for some escapism and an injection of high energy during the lockdown, so I wanted to make something that I would play in my DJ sets.” 

The title track begins with striking synth pulses and fast-paced kick-hat pairings, whilst old-skool disco samples march on throughout. Fleek manifests as a groovy, vocal-driven number, packed full of female lyrical samples that create a true celebratory feel, before Get It ends proceedings on an upbeat, feel-good note with warm percussion and a swinging underlying bassline. 

Welsh DJ / Producer No-e is quickly becoming a talked-about name in today’s electronic music realm. Cutting his teeth in his hometown of Swansea, recent releases on Food Music and All Night Long Records have caught the eye of several well-known talents, including Shadow Child, Alex Virgo and now Hot Creations head Jamie Jones.

Jamie Jones and Lee Foss’ Hot Creations welcomes a loaded new EP as Andre Salmon, Michael Joseph and Lexlay collaborate across four tracks for their ‘Momii’ EP.

Home to stand-out collaborations such as Todd Terry and Riva Starr’s recent ‘This Is The Sound’ through to classics such as Jamie Jones and The Martinez Brothers’ ‘Bappi’, Hot Creations has always been a platform and label pairing unique and exciting artist combinations with impressive results. Closing July, the label now invites a stacked selection of artists for a big collaborative release as label signee Andre Salmon returns for his second release on the imprint and combines with
Orlando’s Michael Joseph and Barcelona’s Lexlay for their four-track ‘Momii’ EP - featuring Figio, Francis Davila and Cami Jones.

“As you may listen and feel, each song has a different groove, but all four songs perfectly balance nice techy and housey flavours to build an EP for the crowd and audience. All the tracks are improvisations. I love to share music and projects with my friends, which happened here. I sent something to Michael and Lexlay, while Figio’s and Francis Davila also sent me something - teamwork with friends is always dope! This release was inspired by the vocals, honestly. I wrote them all around the vocals, just jammin’ around and trying different stuff! This release means a lot to me because it is the second on Hot Creations, which is hard to get. I’m glad to be able to always talk with Jamie about my songs. Jamie has always inspired me and is always open to share feedback to see what’s the best for the release, so here’s to working towards a third!” - Andre Salmon.

The three main featured artists take the helm on the title track ‘Momii’ for a skippy and slick lead effort, while Salmon and Joseph link with Milan’s Figio’s for the snaking, percussion-driven ‘Aquarium’. Next, the three lead names unite once more and combine rumbling low-ends and lively hats on the bubbling ‘Left Hand’, before Salmon and Joseph once again link with fresh talent as Francis Davila joins the party, working warping synths and rolling drums around the alluring vocals of Cami Jones.

Andre Salmon, Michael Joseph, Lexlay ‘Momii’ EP drops via Hot Creations on 28th July 2023.

Tracklist:
1. Andre Salmon, Michael Joseph & Lexlay - Momii
2. Andre Salmon, Michael Joseph & Figio’s - Aquarium
