Fat Freddy's Drop’s pirate soul train, resolutely independent, worldwide.

Formed in 1999 in Wellington, New Zealand our sound draws inspiration from almost every part of the black music lexicon. Soul drenched vocals and jazz harmonies collide with tape delays and echo chambers, underpinned by a rhythm section as comfortable laying down a throbbing, techy soundscape as they are a swampy blues stomp.

In 2014 Tokyo Prose released his debut album ‘Presence’ on Samurai Music. ‘Presence’ marked the culmination of his musical exploration and evolution up until that point - encapsulating the soulful, emotive vibrancy of the Tokyo Prose sound, now fully formed and refined.

Tenacious, self-taught artist Michelly Cordova makes stunning crossover jazz anthems laced with elements of blues, R&B, and soul. Raised in L.A. by a family with deep musical roots, her diverse talent was inspired by singers like Frank Sinatra, Billie Holiday, and Judy Garland, and later influenced by acts like Sade, Pink Martini, and Madeleine Peyroux. Cordova’s unique vocal style, which infuses emotive intensity with effortless cool, has earned her comparisons to iconic powerhouse vocalists like Ella Fitzgerald and Cassandra Wilson as well as subtly moody, radio-friendly acts like Norah Jones. She’s the kind of singer who fully inhabits her music: “I try to live my life full of love and hope, and to share that with others through my performance,” she says. “When someone listens, I hope they’ll live in the moment of that song, wherever the music takes them.”
 
Cordova started singing professionally in her late twenties. She pursued vocal training with an opera singer and briefly fronted a pop cover band before finding a home for her talent in jazz music. Encouraged by a close friend and mentor, she soon made a name for herself performing regularly at local jazz jams, developing an expansive, R&B-leaning, soul-meets-blues repertoire that allowed her to share bills with rock bands and gospel groups alike. After earning her first songwriting credits on rockabilly legend Billy Lee Riley’s final album Still Got My Mojo in 2007, Cordova released Jazz Noir and blues ballads throughout her early career, slowly evolving her sound into the more upbeat, atmospheric, rhythm-driven style of her current work. 
 
In 2009, Michelly released her debut collection of uniquely arranged jazz standards called Midnight Lounge, performing three nights at the Netherlands’ Maastricht Jazz Festival to a packed house. Her 2014 sophomore album, Love, Dreams and Everything In Between, showcased a range of original tracks produced by GRAMMY-nominated producer Bob Tucker and featuring renowned jazz pianist Jane Getz. In 2016, Cordova released single “Whisper in the Dark,” co-written and produced by Joseph Holiday (“Hair Love” songwriter for Oscar-winning Best Animation Short), and in 2018 dropped “Race for Love,” which quickly reached eighty-five thousand Spotify streams. In 2022, Michelly is set to release two new singles produced by Holiday: the groovy R&B track “I’m in Love” in January followed by bluesy, pining Spanish guitar and sax ballad “Anything” in October.

I'm only here to listen and come up with absurd comments on your tracks.

Michael Deno. The name may not ring a bell at once, yet chances are you've heard his voice a few times in recent years -- during a notable episode of ‘The Voice Van Vlaanderen’, for example. Or as a singer and guitarist with Lost Frequencies. Michael has performed mainly at private events in recent years: Company parties, receptions, marriages, funerals, too. Despite the often difficult circumstances, he impressed audiences (who had not come to see him) time and again. Those who have already seen him live will confirm it: this is a born performer who experiences the stage as his natural habitat. 

"Music is about a pure feeling" says Michael himself. 

"If you fail to convey that feeling in an authentic way, people notice it immediately." He chose his covers carefully, became a better guitarist and learned to use his voice more efficiently. This yielded tangible results: after every performance, new bookings came pouring in. 

In short, things were going well. 

Michael Deno could have chosen to build a career that way; to go for certainty. After all, there's nothing wrong with a good singer who has the talent to mould the hits of others to his liking. But today he is making a new start. His ambition to perform his own music was quietly growing. But that was easier dreamed of than done. Michael tried out the most diverse styles: Blues, R&B, Tropical House, Jazz, even Classical. The search led more than once along slippery winding roads and dead-end lanes. To be perfectly honest: he was never convinced himself. A record deal was signed and then dissolved again. Success has no taste if you have to sell your soul for it, and a perfectionist is not easily satisfied. But in the last two years Michael has found his own sound, and he makes music that coincides with who he is. With the help of lyricist Sylvain and Dutch producer Marvin Fockens, he has now completed a couple of handfuls of songs that are impossible to leave indifferent. You hear crystal clear melodies, choruses that stick and lyrics that have something to say. Pop music as pop music should sound. If you have to think of Ed Sheeran and John Mayer now, there are already two of us. But they are no more than reference points, because Michael Deno has enough individuality to do without such comparisons. You will soon be able to see for yourself, because sixteen years after his first performance he has -at long last- a debut ready. He himself sees it as a leap into the great unknown. We, on the other hand, are confident that he will land very softly, and above all, that his name will ring a bell at the end of 2022.

Making music, sometimes.
