NUfrequency guest Mix on John Digweed's Transitions

Go That Deep (Paul Woolford Remixes)

Go That Deep (Paul Woolford Main Mix)

On the heels of their critically acclaimed soulful masterpieces ‘Go That Deep’ and ‘Fallen Hero’, Shield and Cristiano finally completed their first NUfrequency album ‘Connected’.
‘Connected’ is a musical journey that has taken them 5 years to explore different worlds,  a mixture of pop, ambient and electronica, with a dose of funk, 80’s disco-lite and cinematic  elements. The NUfrequency trademark combination of understatement and sonic richness.

The album is a great collaborative project with artists that need no introdutions. It kicks off with ‘My Angel’ and the breathy, sweetly gorgeous vocals of Maggie Reilly (known for her collaborations with  Mike Oldfield, and the international hit 'Moonlight Shadow' ). ‘Make a Peace’ and ‘Streetlife’ with Ke’, the incredible voice of the smash hit ‘Strange world’. The title song ‘Connected’ with the exceptional singer/songwriter, Yoav and his unique ability to create a phenomenal spectrum of sound that transcends genre, resulting in a one-man sonic showdown. ‘Go That Deep’ featuring the beautiful vocals of the ex Massive Attack legend Shara Nelson, a soul singer with a voice from heaven, that was tipped as a modern classic when released in 2008. Ben Onono injects another strong dose of soul in ‘Fallen Hero’, beautiful and touching ! ‘Fearless’ featuring the reggae Jamaican master now living in NYC Hawkman, who has already collaborated with Tricky a few years ago. The rocking ‘Passage Of Time’ and the energy of Snax, ‘Sometimes’ with the Scandinavian charmer Marie Frank who achieved an international dance floor smash as Frankee with ‘Under The Water’ in the late 90s. The album closes with the hypnotic echoing piano track ‘Main Stream’ to close a journey that is just a start for the Italian duo.

The album feature also a selection of the best released and new remixes of the songs of the album, completely remastered. From the class of the deep soulful masterpiece ‘Go That Deep’ remixed by Charles Webster, Skylark (Nic Fanciulli & Andy Chatterley), Paul Woolford, Ajello and In Flagranti, to the retrospective and forward-thinking Motor City Drum Ensemble and Mark E versions of ‘Fallen Hero’, from the inspiring Wolf & Lamb rework of ‘My Angel’ to the Juan MacLean and Hot Toddy space disco odyssey of ‘Passage Of time’. The package also includes impressive remixes from Tony Lionni, Jef K & Gwen Maze, Bocca Grande, Chris70 and the up and coming talents T Polar, Red D, Homework, Chordashian and Rocketnumbernine.

The package of remixes will be released trough Rebirth Records on 13th February 2012.

Born in the summer of 2004, the NUfrequency project is a collaboration between Shield and Cristiano Massera.
Their first single ‘808 (Why Oh Why)’, signed to Little Mountain , has seen the big support from all the top jocks. Pete Tong played it 8 times in his Essential Selection making it an Essential New Tune, and it has been one of the tunes at the Wmc ‘05 . 
In 2007 Shield and Cristiano are back with ‘Love Sick’, featuring the vocals of Plavka, best known for being the singer behind Jam & Spoon. The single released on Rebirth, alongside hot remixes from Cagedbaby and Mock & Toof, followed in 2008 by ‘Go That Deep’ (released by NRK in the UK) featuring the legendary Shara Nelson, with fantastic interpretations by Charles Webster, Redanka, Skylark and Paul Woolford. Heavily supported from the likes of Pete Tong, Laurent Garnier, Jazzanova, Groove Armada to name a few it has been tipped as the best soulful house tune of the year. In 2009 Shield and Cristiano team up with the amazing Snax for ‘Passage Of Time’, a hook-heavy, explosive and infectious psychedelic song based on pounding drums, Bee Gee's inspired vocal perfection and charming Prince- like seduction. Released on Rebirth in May with mixes from DFA’s Juan MacLean, Freeform Five and Hot Toddy. In 2010 'Fallen Hero' with the fantastic vocals from Ben Onono released with mixes from Motor City Drum Ensemble, Rennie Foster, Mark E and Amillionsons. The song is currently n.1 as most charted record ever on Resident Advisor and supported by the biggest names !
