Press Reviews:
"Art 'Spike' Schloemer is most obviously influenced by musicians like Joe Zawinul and Jan Hammer. Schloemer is, like Zawinul, a true technical master, and like Hammer, has a lilt in his compositions that make them more than pleasing vehicles.
Throughout the entire disc Schloemer proves himself a more than capable composer of electric jazz at the highest level, and as a soloist he establishes himself as a thoughtful and exciting technician. Schloemer's incredibly nimble fingers fly throughout the recording, and he puts them to good use in this collection of high powered, highly percussive fusion. For those who thought great electric jazz, or tightly constructed progressive rock of the 1970s and 80s was gone forever, this disc will restore your soul."
- Thomas R. Erdmann

"Aside from the work of his special guests, Schloemer is responsible for the entirety of TransFUSION, making the disc an otherwise incredible singular achievement. Through his compositions, arrangements, multi-instrumental playing and programming, the keyboardist always manages to sound like he's looking forward, even as he reaches backward for inspiration.

SWEET SOUL RECORDSの制作ノウハウの集大成、初のオリジナルソングリリース
Sacha Veeもプロジェクトに参加し、世界規模でのコラボレーションが実現した。

世界中から隠れた良質音楽を日本に集め現在注目が集まるレーベル、SWEET SOUL RECORDS。4月にリリースした日本人が本格的にカヴァー曲を生演奏で創り上げる、DANCE, SOUL LIGHTSをリリースしiTunesのソウル/R&Bチャートにてメジャーレーベルやその他著名アーティストを差し置いて1位を獲得した。
同レーベルから6月27日にリリースする、WORLD SOUL COLLECTIVE VOL.1では、レーベルのベストソングを集めたレーベルベスト盤をリリースする。それをきっかけに、日本代表としてレーベル初のオリジナルソングをつくったプロジェクトがこの「Make the Change」だ。
プロデューサーには三浦大知やEMI MARIAの曲を手がけるHIROYUKI　MATSUDAを迎え、レーベルが今まで培ったレコーディングの技術を注ぎ込み完成した。 そして目玉はヴォーカリストのNao Yoshioka。今回彼女が選ばれた理由は明確で、「世界にむけて活躍をしたい」という意思が明確だからだ。 彼女がライブで歌うサム・クックのChange Is Gonna Comeを聞いたときに、変革はくるものではなく、自ら働きかけて創り出すものというインスピレーションから生まれたのが今回の楽曲「Make the Change」である。 作詞はニュージーランド出身でSWEET SOUL RECORDSからEPをリリースしたSacha Veeが手がける、海を越えて実現した国際的なプロジェクトになった。 ソウルが国境を越えて繋がり、多くの素晴らしいアーティスト達が認知を得て賞賛される時代を創るため、我々はこのMake the Changeで世界に訴えかける。

Nao Yoshioka - Make the Change

Born Albert Dean Freeman, singer/songwriter A.D. is a Southern California native whose love for music can be traced back to his early childhood. Since the age of 6, he has been inspired by iconic male vocalists including James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Tevin Campbell and Donnell Jones. A.D. got his first taste of the music industry by performing in the R&B group S1. After three years together, the group disbanded and A.D. set out to pursue a solo career. In 2009, A.D. became the first R&B winner of Shiekh Music’s Rip The Mic Tour presented by Reebok and spent the preceding year representing Reebok’s Fuze 1.0 footwear collection in live performances and national ad campaigns. A.D. was featured in several national issues of Hip Hop Weekly magazine and the college publication University Link. In addition to performing over a dozen spot dates all over the Western United States, A.D. released his “Heart & Dedication” mixtape hosted by DJ Justyle. A.D. has many things in store for 2011 including the release of a self-titled album. A.D. hopes the New Year will give him the opportunity to show the world a new voice and some good R&B music. In a recent interview, when asked about his perspective on the state of R&B, A.D. said he would like to see more artists of substance. He praises the likes of Mary J. Blige, Trey Songz and Alicia Keys for their strong messages and artistic integrity and hopes that he will be able to add to their legacies of powerful R&B musicians. A.D. describes his music as vibrant, soulful and sexy. Only writing about things he has experienced or personally witnessed, he hopes that people will be able to relate to his honest message. His dedication and mastery of his craft is showcased as he writes all of his own music and loves to do collaborations. For A.D., one of the most fulfilling aspects of being an artist is when he’s able to surprise his audiences with the quality of his work and exceed their expectations. Describing himself as gifted, funny and weird, A.D. says that his true love for music has been the driving force that has gotten him where he is today. When asked what advice he would give to aspiring artists, A.D. talks about the importance of confidence, patience and networking. Although all of these important principles have all contributed to A.D.'s emerging success, he says that he credits all of his accomplishments to God, without whom, nothing is possible.

"If You'll Be My Baby" by A.D.
