Sean McCabe - Something About You/Holding On ZR

The first single from Sean's debut album, which is due out on ZR in autumn. "Something About You" featuring Jennifer Wallace is a super catchy slice of jazzy soulful dance music that has already created quite a stir due to appearing in a couple of online mixes. We believe along with Zo! its one of the stand out tracks of 2014.

Add to that the more tracky 90's style Holding On and you've got the hallmarks of a classic release that will be remembered for years to come and talked about by future generations whist they are exterminating life in far off galaxies. 

If you're feeling it, please play it, chart and post about it. there's not too many producers out there making this music these days so we need your support to get the word out there!

Sean McCabe "Something About You/Holding On" ZR

Sean McCabe's debut album is available now from the Z SHOP on Gatefold Double LP, CD and Digital

http://www.zrecords.ltd.uk/new-releases

This lush and musical 17-track affair is Sean’s first big solo project and it has been in the works for almost three years. Written mostly in his Bristol studio, the LP features a wealth of international collaborations – Jennifer Wallace, Diane Charlemagne, Renn - and has been made primarily on real hardware such as the Fender Rhodes, SH-09, Juno 106, Poly 61, JV-1010, EMU Vintage Keys and the Moog Slim Phatty.

 

Sean who has been producing since his teens and includes fine labels like US garage staple King Street Sounds, Defected, Strictly Rhythm and Local Talk in his discography says of the album: “It was important for me to get it perfected to my original vision, and to keep that vision throughout was difficult. I’ve literally drawn inspiration from everything that’s influenced me as producer and writer over the years. I always wanted to create something that demonstrates all my tastes in soulful dance music which can be influenced by so many sub genres like Hip Hop, Disco, Jazz, Soul, Deep House, US garage etc. The NuYorican Soul album has always been a benchmark for me in terms of a perfectly constructed album and is something I never get tired of listening to.”

 

Those influences shine though in this fantastically musical and deeply considered album: it bares all the hallmarks of a proper full length that has been built from the ground up with fantastic arrangements, catchy vocals and real song structures.

 

The production values are sky high on this album, and though it might have been a long time in the making, it was worth it, because it categorically proves that now really is Sean McCabe’s time.

Sean McCabe - It's Time - Album Sampler

Exodust is summer heat in techno form — warm, pulsing, and hypnotic. Skeleton lifeguards watch the waves as dancers move in the surf, the bassline echoing long after the sun sinks. The party never ends… it just drifts into the dream !

NEON HEATWAVE

We are living in a world shaped by metrics, algorithms and KPIs. A world with pseudo values, no appreciation for education and common sense, less and less acts of kindness and respect for hard work and more focus towards ARTIFICIAL intelligence.

“Against All Odds” is a manifesto for AUTHENTICITY and it’s a projects which initially I didn’t want to ever release it. But music is meant to be heard, so I decided to release it exclusively on @bandcamp .

To all the people who are listening to my work with their ears and also with their heart, THANK YOU! To all the others, THANK YOU AS WELL!

Bristol-based producer Sean McCabe released his first tracks in 2003 and has since fine-tuned a trademark sound that is effortlessly soulful.

McCabe made his name in house, developing a long-running relationship with legendary US garage label King Street Sounds and remixing the likes of Dennis Ferrer, Evelyn Champagne King, Carolyn Harding, Blaze, and Roland Clark. Since then he’s amassed an impressive discography, delivering inspired productions for labels like Local Talk, Strictly Rhythm, Vega Records, Tribe, and Quantize – plus an original solo album for Z Records.

A quick listen to any of his productions or one of his superb DJ sets will confirm this attractive, emotion-rich aesthetic. While rooted in house, his sound regularly takes on flavours of disco, boogie, Afro, deeper grooves, proto-house, ‘90s garage-house dubs and much more besides.

As an artist, his 2014 debut album entitled ‘It’s Time’ on Z Records displays his musical range and versatile quality production skills. The album hit Number 1 on Traxsource in its first week and has received support from the likes of Solar Radio, Mi-Soul, Kiss FM, and Jazz FM.

As a DJ, he forged a reputation at the legendary Southport Weekender, where he performed regularly. Anyone who can impress the notoriously knowledgeable Southport Weekender crowd must be doing something right. Sean has also travelled the world, playing as far afield as Asia and South Africa, as well as regular appearances across Europe and the UK. Refreshingly, he seems to have no particular aspirations to play in gargantuan clubs, and admits to preferring gigs in small, intimate venues, where he can make a connection with the crowd.

As a producer, McCabe is constantly learning and evolving, taking his sound in different directions. He admits to a love of vintage synthesizers – picked up from listening to classic New York boogie and ‘80s soul. In 2016, Sean continued his musical journey by launching ‘Good Vibrations Music’ record label – a natural evolution of his renowned Good Vibrations events in Bristol.

With a successful album under his belt, his own record label and notable collaborations with the likes of Karizma, Turbojazz, and DJ Spen, his reputation for bringing quality soulful dance music to the masses continues to rise.
