Rebecca Vasmant - Jewels Of Thought (Ft Harry Weir, Paix)

My remix of Amanda Whiting's amazing track ' After Dark ' on Jazzman Records : https://jazzmanalbums.bandcamp.com/album/after-dark

Taking cues from Dorothy Ashby and Alice Coltrane at their most delicate, renowned Welsh harpist Amanda Whiting’s mesmerising Jazzman full-length LP After Dark arrives as soft as moonlight to gladden the soul and delight the ear—without forgetting to bring the swing.

Summoning the nocturnal mood suggested by the album’s title, Whiting’s harp flows and cascades, dances and alights, broods and haunts, informed by a deep understanding of both classical and jazz music, ultimately revealing a top-drawer composer with rare melodic gifts at the top of her game. From the melancholy opening track ‘Time Stands Still’ to the more rhythmically unorthodox ‘Who Knows’ to the achingly beautiful title track, the album is underpinned by a supportive band, John Reynolds on drums and Aidan Thorne on bass, who are perfectly suited to engage in an effortless, intimate musical dialogue.

Already an inveterate international jazz festival performer with Matthew Halsall’s Gondwana Orchestra, Whiting has supported and performed with a diverse range of Djs and jazz and pop artists including Jamie Cullum, DJ Yoda, Rebecca Vasmant, True Jazzchild, Danii Minogue, Jazzanova, and Chip Wickham (who features on three tracks on After Dark, adding a touch of the graceful warmth for which he has been so justly acclaimed). And as Jazz harp teacher at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, and RNCM, Amanda is as warmly received in the lecture hall as the concert hall. Be sure to to expect more from Amanda in the not too distant future.

Known for being credible and unique, Rebecca has made a huge blast onto the scene. Having headlined in over twenty two countries worldwide, she is fast becoming an established name within the industry. Brazil, Nicaragua, Africa, India, Dubai, Bulgaria, Estonia, France, Spain, Bosnia, Istanbul, Latvia, and Austria already under her belt and with Mexico and Brazil to come, being resident for Cabret Volataire Edinburgh and having played at places like We Love Space Ibiza, Zoo Project Ibiza, Back To Basics Leeds, We Love Sankeys Manchester, The Arches Glasgow, Sub Club Glasgow, Buff Club and Saundhaus Glasgow, Snafu Aberdeen, Rockness festival, The wickerman festival, The Tunnel Aberdeen, Cabret Volataire Edinburgh, Bongo Club, GRV and the Caves Edinburgh, Soulist Soundsystem Paris, Turnmills London, Ministry Of Sound London, East Village Shoredich, Public Life London and Pacha London, Also having headlined the Warehouse Bristol alongside Tommy Four Seven and Tania Von Pear, Open Air Festival in Milan quarterly and the Arches with Sebastian Leger, and not to forget her regular warehouse parties in her hometown of Glasgow her name is ever rising in the Electronic Music Scene. Playing along sides the likes of Dave Clarke, Tom Middleton, Greg Wilson, DJ Format, X-press 2, SLAM, Green Velvet, DJ Pierre, Silicon Soul, Funk D Void, Billy Nasty, Justin Robertson, Terry Farley, Tommy Four Seven, Chris Leibing, Edit Select, Erol Alkin, Mylo, Riva Starr, Jo Mills, Dj Falcon, Milton Jackson, 6th Borough Project, Underground Paris, Fabio Monesi, Cottam, Red Rack Em, Paul Oakenfold, Joey Negro, Shit Robot, Tania Von Pear, Luciano, Hans Bouffmyre, Larry Tee and of course Harri and Domenic of Glasgow to name a few and fronting a monthly residency in Glasgow alongside James Johnston, Rebecca is also set to line up alongside many more...

Rebecca will be launching her own label in 2014 which will see the collaboration of various Jazz artists, musicians and electronic musicians working together to create a fusion project pushing music to the forefront of scenes which less contemporary styles of this music would perhaps not normally be seen within. On top of all of this Rebecca hosts a monthly party in her hometown of Glasgow alongside James Johnston (No Matter What Records) which has seen names such as Tom Middleton, Jeremy Underground (My Love Is Undergound), Terry Farley, Fabio Monesi (Wilson Records), Milton Jackson, Cottam and 6th Borough Project, with names such as Rick Wade, Terrance Parker, Kez Ym and many more to come Rebecca also promotes a bi monthly record fair at the Sub Club in Glasgow which sees many labels and vendors trading records, allowing people to come together for a day to appreciate music and support record sales.

Sub Club Resident - Era Suite <3 
Live : Rebecca Vasmant Ensemble

In an age increasingly dominated by faceless machine-created sounds, DJ-Producer Rebecca Vasmant is bringing a fresh new twist to dance music with her love of jazz, the original form of unbridled spiritual sonic expression. Rebecca is a passionate record collector and her knowledge exceeds her time as a "digger".

While promoting her own parties and record fair in Glasgow, starting her record label Schiehallion and touring the world over the past years, her whirlwind schedule has fitted in sessions with eight-strong Ghanaian outfit Kakatsitsi, as a live fusion show mixing traditional African rhythms with modern dance ingredients; two strains of dancefloor- friendly catharsis joining together in a vibrant new mutant. As well as working on her 'Glasgow Jazz Experiment which features world class musicians from The Scottish National Jazz Orchestra, her talents are not only in spinning records, but in composing and live shows also.

Rebecca has already made a name in Glasgow with her residency at Sub Club, Made In Glasgow and Know The Way parties, running a popular record fair with the venerable Sub Club and a monthly spot on BBC Radio Scotland playing contemporary records in an attempt to bridge the gap between much abused but crucial genres and the electronic scene. She also airs this facet of her irrepressible musical passion at key events like the Glasgow Jazz Festival, Kasheme Zurich, Casper Montenegro and the Baltic Soul Weekender, Waunderlust and Le Melletron Paris, as well as recent high profile gigs curated by Mixmag, like TRNSMT Festival and many others.

Renowned UK clubs which have been treated to Rebecca’s sublime house and techno sets include a two year residency at Edinburgh’s Cabaret Voltaire, the Sub Club and The Arches in Glasgow, Aberdeen’s Snafu, Dundee’s Reading Room, We Love... at Manchester’s Sankey’s, Leeds’ Back To Basics and London niteries including MOS and East Village. She has also played festivals including Rockness, Kelburn, T in The Park and Wickerman, plus Ibiza spots such as Space, Savannah and Zoo Project.

Rebecca’s activities have taken her to play in 22 countries, including premiere spots in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Brazil, Estonia, India, Africa, Nicaragua, Bosnia, Latvia, Dubai, Austria, Turkey, Serbia, Algeria and Bulgaria.

This year, she has released a remix of Norwegian duo Perfume with Hot Gem recordings, and in September is set to release an EP on Made In Glasgow Recordings which is a collaborative effort with Perseus Traxx. The end of the year will also see a release of her solo EP of disco and jazz tinged house.
