This June one of Nu-Disco, House and SynthWave's most ubiquitous and well respected figures Freak You unleashes his swansong, a massive Pop House tune titled There You Are.

Assisting him in rocking your world is London ElectroPop superstar Bright Light Bright Light. Fresh from I Wish We Were Leaving, his collaboration with Sir Elton John, BLx2 is the icing on this deep and infectious House monster you're sure to be hearing a lot of over the Summer.

The release comes full to bursting point with some of the hottest reMix talent around. Deep, floorfilling club sounds provided by Edwin Van Cleef sit next to lush and emotional retro SynthWave from Starcadian, while Cosmonaut Grechko transports us back in time with a classic early 90s House tune and She's The Queen take us straight to the big room.

About https://soundcloud.com/freakyou
France's Freak You remains an enigma, despite being one of the most well known figures on the Nu-Disco and House music scenes. As head-honcho of On The Fruit Records he's been responsible for some of the biggest club releases in the past few years and as a producer, DJ and reMixer he's consistently won fans over with his classic, timeless, floorfillers. Also part of electronic act LoFrames with James Yuill, Freak You continues to be at the forefront of innovative, yet Poppy, dance music.

About https://soundcloud.com/brightlightx2
Bright Light Bright Light is the moniker of Welsh born, London based Rod Thomas who released his début album Make Me Believe In Hope last year to rave reviews. Hailed by Sunday Times Culture as "a songwriter of extraordinary dexterity", by Elton John as the hottest new thing in music, ending up at no.4 in the Guardian Reader's Albums of 2012 poll, and touring with Ellie Goulding, Erasure and Scissor Sisters, it's clear that his late 80s/early 90s tinged ElectroPop has found quite a few fans.
Rod, "the boy Robyn in all but name" according to the NME, is performer, songwriter, producer and DJ.

About the reMixes
There You Are gets the reMix treatment from some of the most exciting names in electronic music. Acclaimed Dreamwave/Nu-Disco/House producer Edwin Van Cleef  is up first with the kind of crowd pleaser he is so known for. Starcadian, who's been receiving a lot of press recently for his Disco tinged SynthWave and his epic music videos, delivers a blissful nostalgia trip. The early 90s House scene is perfectly captured by Cosmonaut Grechko on his shiny piano jam and ElectroPop giants She's The Queen serve up a huge Progressive House track for the biggest dancefloors.

About @electronicrumors
Formed after the success of the 'electronic rumors volume 1' compilation (released in association with Ninthwave Records as a boutique electronic music outlet concentrating on quality over quantity, developing artists and releasing some of the best synthesizer music around.

Music Is My Sanctuary presents this brilliant Scott C remix of Jacob Collier's "Don't You Worry Bout A Thing" 

from Scott C: "I discovered the Youtube life of Jacob Collier only about a month ago. This amazing 19 year old London-based musician has mastered a gang of instruments, and combined with his vocal chops, has caught the ear of heavyweights like Quincy Jones and Herbie Hancock. 

After playing his video cover of Stevie Wonder’s "Don’t You Worry Bout A Thing" about a million times over, I decided to do an edit so I could run it on the dancefloor at our monthly party, The GOODS here in Montreal. I hope you enjoy it."

State Of Grace - That's When We'll Be Free (intrumental special mix b 1)

"The overall concept of BLK Muzak was to combine a beat maker aesthetic to a historical and political landscape of afrofuturism. I wanted BLK Muzak to be a conversation with our iconic symbolism. The symbols that have always sustained marginalized people and those that are at the very heart of black music." - Ra of Mourning [A] BLKStar

Creating songs of both eulogy and revolution, the expansion of 21st century black consciousness is felt in waves through Ohio's Mourning [A] BLKStar. A force that has deep conviction, purpose, and weight, songs are voiced through the lens of chopped up drum grooves, stark melodies, and historic sample pulls. Afrofuturism is felt in paramount form within the group, scheduled to give the world their sophomore LP BLK Muzak (Glue Moon Records) July 14th, 2017. The album will land on LP and digital formats, followed by select touring in their region. Mourning [A] BLKStar is bringing forth a conversation that aligns with the political and emotional state of this world, drawing together modern day spirituals of reverence and despair.

Formed behind the vision of group leader Ra Washington, BLK Muzak paints a vivid picture of the complexities surrounding the human condition. A survey of life is distilled through the fabric of the album's soul, encompassing themes such as spiritual ascension, structural counter balances in society, diverse communal values, the unchaining of the spirit, love for self, and revolution. Every word and lyric is galvanized into the diaspora of 21st century African-American culture, serving as both a force of light and a schematic to survival and independence.

Taking on influences as wide ranging as Eddie Gale's late '60s spiritual jazz opus Ghetto Music and the world-renowned works of poet, playwright and essayist June Jordan, BLK Muzak is life through sound. With the group comprising vocalists LaToya Kent, Kyle Kidd, and James Longs, a full spectrum of knowledge and harmony is offered. Scintillating vocal runs spiral over smoldering synth bass and hard hitting snares and kicks. An arena where the presence of a Dead Prez and a Gil Scott-Heren are pulled into the same tapestry of culture. The name of the group finds a shared passageway to multiple worlds and reflects the importance of the music, showing honor and acknowledgement to the lives that've died at the hands of police, along with the beauty and expressive legacy of African-American artistry.

When looking at the roads that led to the creation of BLK Muzak, it's important to understand the history of the group. Group leader Ra Washington plots out the following timeline, "It was originally just me doing what I've been up to for more than a decade: make a batch of beats and record over them. But this time I wanted some different voices around me, so I invited LaToya Kent, who I've known since high school, and James Longs who I've known for at least five years. We recorded twenty songs and then after listening back to the roughs, we decided that maybe this could be a band. We enlisted a jazz singer named Kyle Kidd and went back to the studio and recorded eleven more and from that we put together BLK Muzak. I think for me it was a real reflective time. One of my best friends had been murdered and I was kind of floundering in making. I didn't know if I should keep going because it hadn't been that much distro of the projects and I felt like maybe the idea of making a living as an artist was a misnomer. LaToya was itching to record and James had never done it professionally with original content. So I think we were all looking for a spark but we didn't want to just make something, we wanted it to be impactful and original."

BLK Muzak will be available July 14, 2017 on Glue Moon Records and will be offered on vinyl and digital platforms.

Though beats and fuzzy hip-hop instrumentals may be all the rage, jitwam (apparently from Manipur, but currently based in Brooklyn?) offers something more out of the box with his original slow-motion funk, dusty soul and cassette-spun R&B.

Recent features include Moodymann’s inaugral mix for DJ-Kicks, radio support from the likes of Gilles Peterson (BBC), collaborations with Inkswel and Paul White (MCDE, R&S), and live shows played at the now legendary Low End Theory parties in L.A and with Yuusef Kamaal (Brownswood).

"Scrimshire's edits are synonymous with our imprint, and every one has been of the highest quality, often hand-picking the more obscure works you never knew you loved, from some of your favourite soul voices.

And as we turn 21 (release-wise) he pulls it out of the bag once again, rework Chaka's string-laiden "Some Love" into a monstrous dance-floor destroyer; adding some serious sliced and diced funk chops to Merry Clayton's percussion heavy version of "Keep Your Eye on the Sparrow"; and finally, subtly and tastefully turning McNeal + Niles' rare slow and soulful treat, "Summertime Love" into a late night Balearic beauty.

The perfect summer soundtrack and another sure-fire Dubplate winner!" -Wah Wah 45s

SF Bay Area's TRKRNR (Track Runner) team up with Trailer Limon (one half of SF's The Pendletons) to create two insta-classics for the dance floor and the bedrooms. 

The A side, Stimulate, a a playfull sex-funk exploration that will elevate dance floors and get pulses racing, while on the flip is "No Summer Days", a smooth, vibey Sade-esque track. This record definitely showcases TRKRNR and Limon's love for creating classic sounding songs that would be at home played back to back with Rick James or Blondie. 

TRKRNR (Track Runner) based in Richmond, California, is comprised of childhood friends Saul Vallens (Allen Valenzuela) & multi-instrumentalist and singer Gyrefunk (Vincent Czekus). The two musicians and dancers, who grew up together in San Jose, Ca., draw on deep backgrounds of house, hip hop, rock and pop to create a future facing, genre-busting sound that is both soulful and highly danceable. Employing everything from kalimbas, djembes, synthesizers, guitars, bass and basically anything they can get their hands on, the two continue to turn out friendly, crowd pleasing music that is modern yet classic. They are at home making four on the floor bangers as they are making psychadelic beat pop, dreamy lounge and tightly produced hip hop.
