The long-awaited first official LP from Michigan-based producer Sango, North, will release digitally on Soulection July 23, 2013 with vinyl to follow. 

Sango’s North brings forth a new sound, one that pulls from soul, rnb, future bass, hip hop and broken beat fusing them together with seamless vocals chops and grooves. North features collaborations from a diverse group of artists like Australia’s Ta-ku, cinematic downtempo producer Atu, nu-soul singer JMSN, story-telling rapper WALDO, newcomer vocalist Brea and Dpat who produced ‘Remember You’ for Wiz Khalifa and The Weeknd. 

Following major worldwide support for his refixes, EP’s and beat tapes from the likes of Brownswood’s Gilles Peterson, KCRW’s Aaron Byrd, and Noisey (VICE) to name a few, Sango is poised to elevate the definition of what “future” music is. 

10+ casual releases later, North combines the best of Sango over the last few years into one seamless musical journey. North is a love story of two people, on a journey, who find better things in themselves when they are with each other. North in Hebrew as noted visually in the album art [that Sango designed himself], representing a sense of “heaven” or “glory” are symbolic to Sango, as he sees everything he does an artist for the greater glory, the greater good, as something bigger than himself.

Here we are with our first release of 2014 by the young and gifted Zikomo. Representing Long Beach, CA this man right here can chop and flip a sample along with some of the best in the world. The fact that Soulection has primarily been about the 'future-sound' we must admit that it feels so good to go right back to the essence and bring back that feel-food soulful/boombap vibe. There aren't too many people out there in the game who still stay true to this sound today. Lets bring it back one time shall we? Zikomo is about to become real familiar in your music library. If you ever have a chance to see him live, please do! You won't regret it. Enjoy this and Happy New Year to all! Big things ahead for us all.

Bless.

As we get ready for a busy summer, of spreading the sound of tomorrow across the globe, we can't help but take a step back and bring you all the feel good, forward thinking music you know and love from Soulection. This installment of our White Label series comes from 18 year old London composer, songwriter, guitarist, singer & violinist, Tom Misch. We felt the need to list all of this in the description, because each track is such an audio masterpiece. This one is for everyone, but true fans of Dilla, and smooth, mellow, R&B inspired hip-hop beats, will definitely enjoy this release.

"Basically this EP is me attempting to make instrumentals that will effect people moods in a positive way but also make people think, all produced and recorded by myself in my bedroom. I've used a combination of obscure jazz samples but mostly live instrumentation that I've recorded, so I recored guitar, violin, bit of vocals and sound effects etc." -Tom Misch

▶ DL Compilation: https://soulection.bandcamp.com/album/stussy-x-soulection-compilation

This compilation is inspired by our collaboration with one of the most culturally relevant and timeless brands, Stussy. 

We've taken dozens of tracks into consideration to curate the finest selection of progressive music from around the world to bring visibility to the future sound. Because there is so much talent out there, it was challenging to pull this compilation together to showcase a progression and cohesive flow that reflects both Stussy and Soulection cultures respectively. 

You will see familiar official Soulection artists on this compilation as well some new talent from forward-thinking and ambitious producers, emcees and vocalists that we're excited about and feel have a bright future.

Our partnership with the iconic brand includes a 'Soulection Tribe' limited t-shirt designed by Stussy as well as a physical in-store event and after party at our Sound Of Tomorrow Los Angeles monthly at The Echoplex on 9.5.14.

Special Thanks to all the artists: @zikomo @iamnoboodi @goldlink @orijanus @beatsbyesta @mr_carmack @samgellaitry @connor-pearson-1 @evilneedleprod @10A @takugotbeats @jayprincemusic @sangobeats @jdreidmusic @sivey @thisjaylouis @pyrmdplaza @mikos-da-gawd @jarreauvandal @starro @lelandaleemfakir @midnightabjo

Released 15th August 2014 via Soul Has No Tempo.

Soul Has No Tempo present Groove Curse, Jordan Rakei's long-awaited follow up to highly-acclaimed debut EP Franklin’s Room, his modern take on reggae-infused soul music. Groove Curse takes an evolved turn, with a sound Rakei describes as “raw, vocal-driven, groove”.

The Hague's very own Tony Tritone is an artist who we've been in touch with for quite sometime now. We have been patiently waiting for his Soulection EP to be completed.... but before this happens we wanted to give you a taste of what this Dutch producer has in store for you. This has an undeniable vibe that will transcend your thoughts into Mind-Travel mode. 

"This track is inspired by different artists like h-town, troop, prince! I titled this 'The Lake' because its referring to a scene at a lake in the movie 'Purple Rain'. The hook is from Jodeci's 'Freakin you'." 

We hope you enjoy this tune & please feel free to share it. There is so much more to come from Tony & from the Soulection crew for the remainder 2nd half of 2012.

Tony Tritone - The Lake (FREE DL)

We remember when we first heard this track on JuSoul's 'ROCK BOTTOM' release & instantly fell in love. J Dilla's 'Think Twice' is one of our favorite tracks of all time by Dilla so when we heard this it hit us right in the chest. 

JuSoul is all the way from Germany and it's very inspiring to hear him create future-soul music. With all the new forms & different sounds coming out in the world, it honestly feels great to hear someone still creating this style of sound. Look out for JuSoul to drop an EP with us in the future. Not to mention he has a track on the Soulection Compilation Vol. II.

We just wanted to give you a taste of another one our artists from a different part of the world. Enjoy this Free download & may JAY DEE live on forever!

We've been playing this one for almost a year now at our live events and radio shows and decided it was finally time to give this one to you to enjoy and play out yourself. 'Mountain High' shows Lakim's range of diversity and displays how this man can create any style of sound seamlessly! When ever our artists bring Modern Funk and that 90's Golden Era style together it's a win! Enjoy.
