*unsigned*

DIEPHUIS & LEYO - SPACE JAM

Track made during Red Bull Music Academy 2008 in Barcelona. Written &amp; produced by Leyo. vocals by Leyo; guitar by Jamie Woon (UK); bass by Robin Hannibal (DEN); Fender Rhodes &amp; Roland 101 by Todd Osborn (USA); percussion by T'Amir Sweeney (USA); drum programming by Leyo. Mastering by Erik Breuer at the Brewery.
    
    "Leyo channels Leroy on an uptempo boogie number, with Jamie wooing dames &amp; gents on guitar, while synth-wizard Todd Osborn and first-bass fumbler Robin Hannibal keep the back section jumping and T'Amir hits it with his Venice Beach rhythm stick. Stamp collectors, stomp to this."
        
        

BARCELONA BOOGIE

Osunlade (Yoruba Soul) “I really love Step Into My Life! great job”
Laurent Garnier (F Communications) “Yes Yes Yes! love this. Full support from me”

Kay Suzuki’s Consciousness is again altered and twisted on round in motion.

I remixed two songs from Kay Suzuki’s album Consciousness. Don’t B Afraid Of Da Future was originally named by IG Culture without his knowledge. The true story goes like this – At the legendary party CO-OP in PLASTIC PEOPLE back in the day, IG Culture’s laptop DJ system had crushed during his set and music stopped completely. Fair enough, a gentleman from the dark corner of the dance floor shouted “Stick to vinyl DJ! forget the computer!” then IG quickly recovered the system and responded, “Yo! Don’t b afraid of da future!” and played the draft version of this original track – Thus it was named after the incident by Kay Suzuki.
‘Leyo’s Remix kept the futuristic warm pad sound and its uplifting chords structure, and laid down on much more shuffled Afro house beats while emphasising the hypnotic synth riff with sneaky bleeps. Recommended on early morning set! Step Into My Life feat. Duchy (Leyo’s Dub End Mix) has gone even deeper twist on the original. Again, emphasised the hypnotic synth riff and slightly dubbed down Duchy’s vocals are floating on top of the settled groove afro house beats with deep wobbling baselines.’

C3i (Lazer Kru)
“LEYO reminding that fear really has no room, no matter how you view time in reference to space. Leyo ensuring the groove is ample yet subtly in its affects upon you. Step Into My Life with Duchy on the complimentary vocal tones! This is Round, it’s cycle circular, sound vortices in Motion. Kay Suzuki – Big up your Solar Plexus!”

Marcia Carr (Lady Bugz)
“Both the mixes are tremendously good, just right for my bag of goodies – deeply soulful to make all sorts of pretty shapes on the floor. Nice one Leyo 9/10″

I like to play tunes. I try to make stuff that will make people yell: TUNE!

4Lux, Room with a View and Round in Motion a.o. have been so kind to release some of my tunes and I was blessed enough to be invited to the Red Bull Music Academy in Barcelona in ’08.

I’m one of the guys of Boogieman: Rahaan, Marlow, Peven Everett, Kay Suzuki, dj Center, IG Culture, Greg Gauthier, Phil Asher, Karizma and Atjazz are some of the names who have joined us in spreading the Boogie.
