Though an experienced beat maker, until now Drop is best known in funk and soul circles as one quarter of The Expansions and for elevating rhythm sections as live drummer for Andrew Ashong, The Gene Dudley Group (Wah Wah 45s) and more.

He has a record collection most would be jealous of. Diverse but firmly rooted in soul, as anyone at his vinyl-only DJ residencies in the capital will testify.

“A really talented musician, absolutely loving that” Lauren Laverne on This Is The One, BBC Radio 6 Music 

All This Trouble - Beat Of The Week - The Huey Show BBC Radio 6 Music 

“The Only Sound represents the finest in musicianship, composition and modern electronic skills and shows that this beat-maker is about a whole lot more and has the chops to prove it.” Beatselector Magazine 
“The Only Sound updates what has gone before in consistently interesting ways.” God Is In The TV 

“Exquisitely recorded downtempo hip hop-ready beats, but it’s as much knee-deep in jazz” The Arts Desk 

“Fans of Ninja Tunes, Mo Wax, St Germain and DJ shadow need to check this out, tight production throughout, a beat selection that’s simply infectious, guest vocals and crate dug samples blended to perfection, it’s a lush musical journey for those hot summers days or a warm chilled out evenings.” Backseat Mafia 

A special Christmas treat from Jonny Drop and Albert's Favourites, to round off a big 2018 for both parties. Among The Stars is brand new, unreleased material from the same sessions that brought together The Only Sound. 

Downtempo, atmospheric goodness to wrap you up nice and warm. Bass tones meet swirling electronics underpinned by a classic, Sub Plot style vocal sample and Jonny's trademark beats. 

“I can talk about how great this album is all day, but in all truth what everyone needs to do is to listen to it and transport yourself in Jonny Drop’s colourful world.” In Search Of Media

'Our Roots Run Deep' Out Now!
Stream: https://lnk.to/OurRootsRunDeep

Montréal | Singer Song-Writer
Label | @EnsoulRecords

The New Mastersounds are an astonishingly persistent funk/soul-jazz quartet who were founded in Leeds, UK in 1999 by guitarist/producer Eddie Roberts and drummer Simon Allen. They recruited Pete Shand on bass and Bob Birch on organ & piano. Bob left the band in 2007 and was replaced by Joe Tatton.  By the close of 2013 (the time of writing) their discography boasted more than twenty 7" 45rpm singles, 8 studio albums, 2 live albums, 1 remix album and several compilation albums, with one more studio album and another live album already recorded and pegged for release in 2014. The band has toured all over the USA (having visited 38 of the 50 states at last count), Japan, and to a lesser extent in UK & Europe.  Influences include James Brown, Grant Green, Booker T, Lou Donaldson and The Meters, as well as the (mainly) UK-based DJs who exposed the four musicians to the sounds of lesser known funk acts at the vinyl-only club nights of the mid-90's.

Nicky Prince has never been bound by musical genre. The Milton Keynes born and raised vocalist has the versatility to fit any vibe while not compromising her signature sound. Although best known for her Garage hits with Zed Bias in the early 2000s, Nicky was performing and recording with various acts well before the height of Garage’s popularity. She started her career singing in Soul and Funk bands, and over the last two decades has lent her voice to Electro,
Hip-Hop, Drum & Bass, House, and Ska tracks.

In 2009 Nicky graced listeners with her debut solo EP “See What You Mean.” Within only five tracks the singer-songwriter displays an impressive range, from the uptempo, energetic funk of “I’m Hearing You” to a bluesy rendition of Nina Simone’s “Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood,” to the hushed tones of the EP’s sole acoustic number, “Balancing Scales.” She is backed on this effort by her band Soul Selecta, which includes renowned UK session players Dave Baldwin on Hammond organ and Robert ‘Skins’ Anderson on drums/percussion. Sadly, the release was criminally slept on.

While “See What You Mean” was available on streaming services and CD, the EP never received the vinyl treatment. So, rather than simply reissuing the project, Nicky has teamed with KU to offer what she calls a “reincarnation” of her debut on wax.

Now retitled “Listen Up,” this underrated affair has had new life breathed into it. To bring out the best in the original recordings, each song has been meticulously remastered by Christian Obermayer at Strype Audio. Then to fill out the 12”, Nicky has added a handful of unreleased songs, including a heavy groove cover of Michael Jackson’s “I Can’t Help It,” which sees her reconnect with Zed Bias; a punchy, funked-up tune titled “Listen Up;” and the original version of “Balancing Scales” that reveals what the track sounded like before it was stripped down to just guitar and vocals.

This offering perfectly captures Nicky’s distinct tastes and inspirations. Further, it fills a hole in your record collection that you didn’t know was there until now.

“I’ve been working with the amazing Nicky Prince since 1995 when we recorded songs like “Strong enough to Survive” and “Timeout” in my bed sit studio in Milton Keynes. We started a group called ECLECTRO and our first show was in Eindhoven with a full band. She sang on my biggest record to date, “Neighbourhood” in 2000, and we are still writing and recording new material in 2023. We will still be doing this in our eighties, I’m sure! My Soul Sister for life!! “ ZED BIAS
