Following the release of debut single ‘Underwater Dreaming’ in 2020, Sons Of The Sun and BBE Music proudly present a stunning pair of remixes by UK Afro-House pioneer Zepherin Saint and Houston duo Beanz N Kornbread.

Founder of Tribe Records and House producer extraordinaire Zepherin Saint turns in a typically smooth and soulful rework of ‘Underwater Dreaming’, completely reinventing the track with a fresh chord structure and inventive use of the original’s layered backing vocals. The silky instrumental version of the remix is also included, especially for the deeper heads.

Donald Johnson & Kenneth Roy aka Beanz N Kornbread met as keyboard players in a local Texas church and have been working together ever since, writing and producing for Z-Ro, Paul Wall, Mac Miller, George Clinton, Slim Thug, Le$ and Snoop Dogg to name but a few. Johnson also plays drums in high-flying funk outfit Khruangbin. The pair’s chilled, yet bouncy, ‘Nawfside’ remix pays tribute to the pair’s shared North Houston upbringing in the 80’s with a sonic aesthetic they describe as “reminiscent of the low fidelity vinyl/cassette/VHS tape sound of its time”.

Sons of the Sun is a collaboration between American singer-songwriter JTronius and British producer Maverick Quest, featuring an inspired selection of luminary guests and musicians. Delivered remotely, the ingenious pair sent files back and forth between Texas and South East London to create their shared vision for the project. Remarkably, the duo has yet to meet in person. Their eponymous debut album is slated for release in June 2021 on BBE Music.

Pullin from the Stacks - Episode 145

World-renowned drummer/composer, & producer/beatmaker, Myele Manzanza, has proved that he’s an artist who continues to dissolve the borders between modern jazz and electronic beat production.

Tapping into the vibrant scene of his adopted home, Myele now readies his next project on London-based label DeepMatter. ‘Crisis & Opportunity’ Vol.1 – London features a top tier cast of young London based talent including Ashley Henry (piano), James Copus (trumpet), George Crowley (tenor saxophone), Benjamin Muralt (bass) and additional contributions from the legendary Mark de Clive-Lowe (synths), with Myele leading on drums.

'This track is really a shout out to the team at Jazz Re:Freshed. A rag-tag group of passionate music aficionados that for a decade or so hosted some of London and the world’s best musicians at Mau Mau bar on Portobello Rd in Notting Hill and really help bring a London jazz sound to the world. As a young music student back in New Zealand I discovered (through Myspace no-less) the music of Kaidi Tatham and by extension a whole scene of musicians that were pulling together a unique blend of jazz and dance music that we came to know as Broken Beat. My life was never the same since. I wanted to have something on this record that went some way to capturing that energy of a sweaty dance floor with musicians just raging out on some broken beat jazz funk vibes.'
