S&S Records, Inc. (and S&S Chicago, Inc.) was established in 2005 by 4-time GRAMMY nominated producer Steve "Silk" Hurley and global DJ/Producer Shannon "DJ Skip" Syas. Silk and Skip merged Hurley's worldwide commercial success and Syas' strong global following to form S&S Records. S&S Records has accumulated a catalog of over 500 records and album projects from artists such as: Syleena Johnson, CeCe Peniston, Ann Nesby, DJ Skip, Paul Johnson, Kym Sims, Chantay Savage, J.M Silk, Jamie Principle & Steve "Silk" Hurley, just to name a few. House Music and Remix Pioneer Steve "Silk" Hurley has remixed, produced and / or written over 200 records, with at least 50 of them reaching the Billboard Dance Charts, and dozens reaching R&B and Pop Charts. He has countless Platinum, Gold, and Silver records, and his Productions have sold so far in the millions that it is difficult to calculate how many. Through the 90's until today, Silk's production and remixing services have been utilized on everyone from Michael Jackson, Prince, J-Lo, Madonna, Janet Jackson, R. Kelly, Mary J Blige, to Paula Abdul, Lionel Richie, and even Liza Minnelli. Silk is now a 4-Time GRAMMY Nominated producer as well. Originally released on Steve Silk Hurleys label, Silk Entertainment Records in late 1997, The Word Is Love featured vocals by Sharon Pass, who was a demo singer for Silks ID Records. She finally got to shine on this now-classic record, and Silks signature chant vocals (Oohm-Dah) also provided a memorable moment as well. Along the way, The Word Is Love topped many charts all over the world. It reached # 26 on the UK Top 75 in March 1998, #15 on the Italian Singles Chart, and was Nominated for a GRAMMY in 1999 as part of Silks Body of remix work for 1998. The composition was written by Hurley himself along with M-Doc, Silks co-writer on CeCe Penistons hits Keep On Walkin & Im Not Over You, and Kym Sims Take My Advice. S&S Records has now taken the lead and is running with 5 additional packages of 2013 remixes in several genres (House, Electro, Deep House, Progressive, Dubstep, Progressive & Trap just to name a few) "5 Packages?" you may say...but so many remixers wanted to get their hands on the parts, so who are we to deny them? Have your pick, there are many great remixes between all of the packages! This package includes S&S Remixes by Joe Smooth, Alfred Azzetto, Matteo Candura & Fulvio Perniola.

SSR1400500: Jamie Principle - Baby Wants To Ride (S&S Remixes) 
S&S Records, Inc. (and S&S Chicago, Inc.) was established in 2005 by 4-time Grammy® nominated producer Steve "Silk" Hurley and global DJ/Producer Shannon "DJ Skip" Syas. Silk and Skip merged Hurley's worldwide commercial success and Syas' strong global following to form S&S Records. S&S Records has accumulated a catalog of over 500 records and album projects from artists such as: Syleena Johnson, CeCe Peniston, Ann Nesby, DJ Skip, Paul Johnson, Kym Sims, Chantay Savage, J.M Silk, Jamie Principle & Steve "Silk" Hurley, just to name a few. 

House Music and Remix Pioneer Steve "Silk" Hurley has remixed, produced and / or written over 200 records, with at least 50 of them reaching the Billboard® Dance Charts, and dozens reaching R&B and Pop Charts. He has countless Platinum, Gold, and Silver records, and his Productions have sold so far in the millions that it is difficult to calculate how many. Through the 90's until today, Silk's production and remixing services have been utilized on everyone from Michael Jackson, Prince, J-Lo, Madonna, Janet Jackson, R. Kelly, Mary J Blige, to Paula Abdul, Lionel Richie, and even Liza Minnelli. Silk is now a 4-Time GRAMMY® Nominated producer as well. 

As House Music's FIRST ARTIST, Jamie Principle is truly an "Unsung" hero of Chicago House Music. Jamie's "Bedroom Demos" such as the classic "Your Love" were created in 1982, and by 1983, they were floating around the city on reel to reel and low-quality "cassette dubs," passed on from DJ to DJ. This was due to the high demand created by the legendary Frankie Knuckles. By 1983, Frankie had introduced Jamie to the underground by playing his songs in the "Powerplant", the successor to "The Warehouse,"Frankie's legendary club in Chicago. That created a groundswell that grew from underground to the mainstream club scene and Radio Mixshows. 

While many DJ's were creating "Re-Edits" and "Re-Makes" of Classic Disco music, Jamie was creating ORIGINAL SONGS in his bedroom. Jamie's demos helped change the culture of Chicago DJs to one of playing not only those re-edits and remakes, to playing Jamie's "UNRELEASED EXCLUSIVES," which lead to many Chicago DJs such as Jesse Saunders, Farley "Jackmaster" Funk & Steve "Silk" Hurley (JM Silk) creating their own Original Song Demos." As other Artists such as Marshall Jefferson, Larry Heard & Robert Owens (Fingers Inc), Lil' Louis, Chip E., and Adonis (just to name a few) exposed their demos to the DJ's, these "demos" all became records, and "HOUSE MUSIC was born to the world! 

Jamie went on to become a huge figure in Chicago House Music, but often was misunderstood. Although his talent is that of a huge mainstream artist, it turned out that he never really wanted that. Steve "Silk" Hurley and his ID Records saw the potential in Jamie and wanted to take him to that level, but now everyone realizes that's not what Jamie really wanted as an artist. He just wants to do it for the "love of the music", and whatever comes of that is fine with him. So "Silk" and Jamie came together to get his original vision out there. And if it goes mainstream, so be it! 

The Original 1984 Demo of "Baby Wants To Ride" was produced by Jamie and Steve "Silk" Hurley, and recaptures all of the elements of Jamie's "Bedroom Mix," without the hiss of the Cassettes that were in such high demand in 1984.

https://eddienicholas.bandcamp.com/track/you-left-me-matteo-candura-remix-snippets

From his forthcoming "Do You Wanna Dance" LP, Dek Musique Imprints, in partnership with Mixtape Sessions, is very proud to present Eddie Nicholas' "You Left Me" 2016 Remixes. "You Left Me" is a wonderful song that has given birth to many versions and interpretations since its original 2007 release. 

A song about betrayal and self-love, "You Left Me" shows off Eddie's incredible knack for combining endearing lyrics with a gut wrenching vocal performance. Eddie sings: "I'm gonna get myself together, put on some good smelling cologne, and I'm gonna go dancin'" while the rhythms and grooves of the track make you dance til you sweat. 

For these special 2016 remixes, Eddie has collaborated with Sterling Void, FatFly and Matteo Candura to deliver stellar remixes for the summer and beyond! With Eddie's 'Artist Cut' bringing it back to the song's original soulful roots (courtesy of Switzerland's own Dario Martino,) these 2016 "You Left Me" remixes are a must have!

Tonight's The Night (feat. Kandace Lindsey)

MATTEO CANDURA - Tonight's The Night (feat. Kandace Lindsey)

Matteo Candura is a (musician-producer-songwriter-remixer-dj-engineer-mixer) born and raised in Sicily, Italy. He has a Conservatory Diploma (old system) in Piano, a Second Level Academic Diploma (Master’s Degree) in Musical Disciplines - Music Applied To Multimedia Contexts (Department of New Technologies and Musical Languages), both obtained after many years of study in various Conservatories of Music and a First-Level Specializing University Master Degree in Audio and Entertainment Engineering, he also plays the saxophone. Now he has recently achieved the status of Apple Certified Pro - Logic Pro X, AVID Certified Operator Pro Tools | Music and AVID Certified Operator Pro Tools | Post. He has also successfully obtained a B2 Level in English.

His journey towards the world of House music began when he first started DJing at the age of 14, taking his cues from the golden age of turntablism and associated culture in the late '80s and early '90s.  His attentions were led towards other sounds of the era, at the same time, enjoying their first heyday. His infatuation with those classic 4/4 club sounds is something that lives and breathes vividly in his music today. He has no lofty aspirations to play arena shows or break through into the mainstream of electronic music. He'd rather stay true to the scene and surroundings he loves and develop and grow therein. "I think the most important thing for me is that people take my music as a part of me, so I don't need to play for the biggest fees in the biggest clubs, I am mainly interested in the underground scene itself and being an active and creative part of it”, he says. He enjoys creating music from different styles like House (Deep, Classic, Soulful), Jazz, Soul, Gospel, Funk and more. Across the room, his eyes are closed as he is arranging the mix with perfect detail. It is amazing just to watch, as his mind and body are one with the music. 

His talent was soon recognized by people like Steve “Silk” Hurley (4-Time GRAMMY® Nominated Remixer) and Joe Smooth (House music legend). They welcomed him into their record labels (Steve “Silk” Hurley and Shannon Syas owners of S&S Records Inc., and Joe Smooth owner of Obelisk Production Multimedia and Indie Art Music) both in Chicago. The legend of House music, Joe Smooth, says, “Matteo is a fantastic talent and the sound of his productions are warm, soulful and contemporary”.  Matteo got an exclusive interview of the legend of House Music, Joe Smooth, from Chicago.  Recently, Joe Smooth also remixed and sang a new track by Matteo Candura (Analog Mood)! Soon, other legends of House Music will collaborate with Matteo on his next tracks as producers/singers/remixers!
 
To date, he has worked with such great artists as Faith Evans, Bobby Jones, Steve “Silk” Hurley, Joe Smooth, Jamie Principle, Sterling Void, Jerry C. King, Kim Jay, Curtis McClain, Paris Brightledge, Superfunk, Jameisha Trice, Ron Louis Smith 2nd, Eddie Nicholas, Karina Chavez, Zachary Zamarripa, Somni, SNDSTRM, Cecy Santana, Rick Ross, Sarah Daye, Fatman Scoop, Sharon Pass, Monocles, Precious Maleho, Malisha Bleau, Eddie Cuesta, Tina Cox, Leon Monroe, Artispure, Fil Straughan, Camille Rodwell, S.E.L, Kandace Lindsey, Lauren Amaris, DJ Ross, Alessandro Viale, Elexis Ansley, etc.

His music productions can be found on record labels as S&S Records , Skalla Records, Undercool Production, Obelisk Production Multimedia, Kingdom D.M.G., Just4Funk, Indie Art Music, Sunpire, Tony Records, Docka, Pop Fidelity, Veksler Records, Cabana Recordings, Deep Strips, Quantize Recordings, Smile Creations, Armada Music, Bang Record, Smilax, soon, also, in many other major/indie labels.

Matteo works exclusively with analogue gear, high-end plug-ins and analogue mastering. His music goes from deep house to soulful and funky, combining old school references with brand new sounds. Combining his multifaceted skills with an ear towards House music's roots, Matteo Candura is a name to watch out for!
