Bringing us back to the 80s, this nostalgic yet uplifting edit by Juvë features global pop hit Shout.

English New Wave band Tears For Fears scaled all sorts of charts with this track, which has been remixed often.

Juvë adds a more acid bassline and a driving beat, exploring darker realms with this great remix, which can bring a unique dimension to any set.

Early feedback in by Catz N Dogz, Perel, Terr, Osunlade, Mixmag, Danny Howard/BBC Radio 1, Claptone, Art Of Tones, Alinka...

The title track from prolific producer James Curd’s debut album ‘Taking All This Time’ is a marker of the quality of the 14-track collection, and one of the new tracks set amongst some of his finest moments to date.
A looping jazz-funk b-line and key sample cut pumps round and round as splashy hi-hats and tense synth whirrs build the mood, before the sweet male vocal refrain is unleashed over a pleasingly mellow melodic progression. The vocal by Shyam P reveals itself more, laying on a honeyed R&B / soul feel to the proceedings before we’re dropped back into that relentless disco groove. Snatches of biting electric pianos intersperse the rhythm, and drawn out sax samples provides a moment of juxtaposition in the break. The overall feel is that of a melancholy summer jam that bridges the gap between multiple genres, concisely reflecting Curd’s tastes in the process.
Alan Dixon (Running Back) ditches the soulful feel for an acid/electro/Italo fusion on his bold remix, setting bubbling acid lines against early '90s piano chords that joyously take centre stage midway through the track.

Early feedback:
Catz N Dogz: Such a good song.
Perel: Thank you!
Terr: Beautiful work of all! Alan Dixon for my sets!
Osunlade: Love this!
Mixmag: The original is so strong and then the Alan Dixon mix takes it to my youth and I am wearing a shell suit at the roller disco.
Danny Howard/BBC Radio 1: I like the Alan Dixon remix

Following on from his debut release on SoSure Music, Rioleval  now delivers his ‘Improvise At Noon’. 

Kicking off his production career with the aptly named ‘The Beginning’, Rioleval takes further steps to solidify his position and ‘Improvise At Noon’ holds many of the same values as his debut; funk, soul and jazz influences fused together with an underlying house sensibility. 

Rioleval takes key inspirations from the 90’s club scene and it is clear to see that the classic house sound is engrained  in his productions, keeping the faith with a genre he has explored and grown with throughout his career. ‘Improvise At Noon’  carries much of the same influences as his debut, with clear intent on providing groove driven house music, across both the title track and ‘Mini Drive. Available from Friday 26th February through SoSure Music.
