One of this year’s best surprises has been Soul Retrieval, the debut solo album from Janine Rainforth, best known as the lead singer and co-founder of seminal post-punk funk outfit Maximum Joy. Ransom Note

Beautiful stuff – Zakia Sewell BBC 6 Music

This is the Maximum Joy rework of one of the tracks from Janine Rainforth’s debut solo album – 
Always With You Maximum Joy mix.  Reworked by Charlie Lleweliin, original founder member and drummer of Maximum Joy, the feel is moody and lush, neo-soul with spacious down-tempo summery beats,.

Janine Rainforth, lead singer and original co-founder of Bristol post-punk band Maximum Joy/MXMJoY released her debut solo album ‘Soul Retrieval’ on the 14th February via London Field Recordings. 

It’s been well received and hints at a new musical future for Rainforth. These ten laid back, pop-centric grooves with Rainforth’s distinctive vocal are buried deep in emotion and feeling. DJ’s such as Gilles Peterson (6 Music /Worldwide FM) and Zakia Sewell (BBC 6 Music) have played her new music and interviewed Janine about the new album.

Deserving to be cited alongside their musical counterparts Gang of Four, A Certain Ratio and ESG, Rainforth co-founded Maximum Joy aged 18 and their spiky, joyful post-punk funk rose up from the fertile Bristol scene of the late 70’s/early 80’s, inspired by the likes of punk, Albert Ayler, I-Roy, Funkadelic and politics. They released a number of cult classic singles including ‘Stretch’, ‘Silent Street’ and /White & Green Place’. The band toured extensively, releasing ‘Station MXJY’ in 1982 – an album part produced by the legendary Adrian Sherwood. Their final single – a cover of Timmy Thomas’ Why Can’t We Live Together & Man of Tribes – was produced by Dennis Bovell.

Rainforth’s career in music and with Maximum Joy was cut short by a near fatal serious violent sexual attack from within her close professional circle. 

After a number of decades out of the music industry, Rainforth slowly forged her way back into performing and recording, with her first solo music EP released back in 2014, then in 2015, she spearheaded the reforming of Maximum Joy to perform at Simple Things Festival with a new line-up. In 2019, under the name MXMJoY, she & Charlie Lewellin released ‘P.E.A.C.E.’ which received critical acclaim from media including Pitchfork, The Guardian and Crack among others.
