Paris Green makes a triumphant return to Needwant Records with his latest release, "Without Your Love." The track is a testament to Green's ability to create music that transcends genres and captivates listeners with its feel-good synths, catchy vocal hooks, and nods to the disco era. It's an empowering disco groover that will undoubtedly get people on their feet and dancing.

Paris Green has always been known for his musical versatility and refusal to be confined to one style or sound. His ability to seamlessly navigate through genres like progressive house, Electronica, and melodic techno has earned him a devoted following of fans and critics alike.

His talent and unique sound caught the attention of renowned DJ and producer Kölsch, who discovered him on his BBC Radio 1 Residency show. Since then, Paris Green has been on a meteoric rise, releasing tracks on esteemed labels such as Crosstown Rebels, Positiva, Astralwerks, Motown, and, of course, Needwant.

In 2021, Paris Green released his highly anticipated album "Fear" on Needwant Records. The album showcased his mastery of contemporary dance music, with a diverse range of sounds and dreamy, colorful tones that tied the tracks together into a cohesive and mesmerizing journey.

With more releases slated for later this year on Needwant, Paris Green continues to push boundaries and deliver music that delights electronic music enthusiasts. Those who have yet to discover his unique sound are in for a real treat. Paris Green is a true musical chameleon, constantly evolving and creating art that resonates with audiences worldwide.

PREMIERE : Maceau - Solace

Rogue Planet is about feeling like an “other,” like a planet ejected by its host planetary system. It is a personal journey encapsulating Shamanta’s South Asian roots and influences. Visuals are by internationally-known artist & muse Rajni Perera, “a painter and sculptor known for exploring how power works through the imagery of science fiction.” The album reflects Shamanta’s early life experience as a South Asian immigrant who has journeyed from the Middle East to North America, living in several different cities along the way. Adapting spiritual influences of the past, it seeks to preserve cultural relics in a future unknown. It features her 90-year-old aunt’s Indian Carnatic vocals along with hers, connecting the generational gap.

WeTurnToRed (a.k.a. Shamanta Chandran) is a Syrian-born Tamil-Canadian producer/DJ/ singer/songwriter, and scientist based in Toronto. Growing up on the city’s outskirts, she studied and classically trained in opera and jazz as an arts high school kid. Her deep love for electronic music was ignited after her older brother introduced her to the mid-90s Toronto rave scene.

After experimenting in the studio for over a decade, delving into melodic nuances of modular and analog synths, it was clear that growling basslines and haunting melodies were the subjects of her affection. She made her mark in Toronto’s electronic music scene through live hardware deep house/tech-no-focused sets. As a DJ, she is a quality selector of many genres—everything from hip-hop, reggae, house, techno and what’s in between.

We are very excited to welcome yet another new talent to Dirt Crew Recordings! J. Peacock is a Blackpool born artist, raised on Northern Soul and nurtured in the Manchester music scene. In 2015, he started making and releasing techno under the moniker Joel John. More recently, he has turned his focus closer to home, inspired by uplifting house music produced by friends, and sampling his favourite records played by his dad over the years. Last year he released a first collab track with Laurence Guy on “Shall Not Fade”.

J.Peacock's “The Praying Kind EP” marks a new musical chapter: combining nostalgia and dance floor energy. In his own words: “The goal was to just have fun, experimenting with a new way of making music to what I’ve been doing previously. Taking influence from artists I used to listen to constantly like Soundstream, Cottam, Boo Williams as well as artists close to me like Harry Wolfman and Laurence Guy. This record is about creating something that gives me flashbacks to my dad playing tunes in his flat.”

“Silk Road” starts out as a tribal groover with some great vocal sampling going on, this one is much more situated in the Bass and UK style areas of House Music. Again with a big touch of Soul and deepness all around.

All tracks mastered by Salz Mastering in Cologne.
Music Written & Produced by J. Peacock.

PREMIERE : J. Peacock - Silk Road

Vince Watson is releasing the follow up to his seminal Moments In Time, entitled ‘Another Moment In Time’. Over the twenty years since the original release Vince has put out more than ten LPs of various flavours. Here he returns to the vibe and feel of those early works. ‘Another Moment in Time’ wastes no time in exploring those rich, melancholic tones with his stunning piano chords and an essence of nostalgia that is both thought provoking and deeply satisfying. This album takes Vince Watson ever further into his original sound but with a pristine quality and finesse that his early work was yet to benefit from.
 
From the opener with its rich acid deepness and subtle keys, to the energetic and deeply fulfilling ‘Flashback’ that gives a nod to Funk d’Void’s Diablo or KiNK. ‘Peace Of Mind’ features the incredible talents of the Underground Resistance ‘Timeline’ keyboard master Jon Dixon as co-writer, this combination of both musicians is an ear to behold; the piano and Rhodes playing is straight up high-tech jazz. ‘Lost In the Deep’ takes its cues from Detroit but hits different with twisting chords and grooves. ‘Whispers’ delivers the most melancholic deepness on the LP, whereas ‘Sunshine’ is pure out and out happiness with its twisting chords and a firm foundation in Detroit. Written on the first sunny day after the winter, you can hear the breath of relief within the track . ‘Rendezvous [Finale]’ is the 3rd and final version of a cut that’s had a long and satisfying journey. Originally released on Carl Craig’s Planet E in 2006, it was then formatted into Afro House for Osunlade’s Yoruba Records in 2018, and in ‘22 this new version was debuted for Carl Cox’s Birthday at DC10 in Ibiza for Vince’s live set. The reaction sealed the deal!  ‘Forever’ and ‘Make A Wish’ are straight up club cuts that featured on a single also in ‘22. The album closes out with the peacefully beautiful  ‘Sleep’ that rounds things off to sonic perfection.
 
This feels like the next evolution in Vince Watson. The finesse, the musicality, musicianship, and the production levels are of the highest level. ‘Peace of Mind’and ‘Flashback’ may well be two of the biggest tracks that Watson has released to date.

A1 - Taciana - Tudo Faz Sentido
B1 - Taciana - Tudo Faz Sentido (Suba Extended Remix)

Wrapping up the Summer season for Selva Discos comes the fourth installment of the Brasingles series. This time, the label presents a slow burner from singer-songwriter Taciana Barros, taken from her only solo album "Janela dos Sonhos" (1995), produced by the mighty Mitar Subotic aka Suba.

Taciana is known for his work as singer of the band Gang 90 e as Absurdettes – one of the milestones for the Brazilian rock/new wave scene in the 80s – and her personal involvement with Suba in the early 90s led to the recording of "Janela dos Sonhos", originally released on CD and K7. The Serbian producer also contributed with a unique "extended remix" of "Tudo Faz Sentido" – and those who are slightly familiar with the Brazilian music industry knows how rare it is to have such kind of remix on an official release.

The original song is already catchy, seductive and quite polished as the best songs from that 1995 vintage are, but the Suba remix manages to take it to another level and then further, extending its mysterious atmosphere and intensifying the sexiness that lays underneath it all the way until it reaches the awesome breakdown – and then bringing the song back to a greater effect. It truly is an exquisite track that combines the excellence of Suba's production skills and Taciana's voice and songwriting talent that surely will hold the listener on repeat.

As most of the Brasingles releases, this is a loud 12" single with the original song on the A-side and a rework on the B side, to please both the DJ and the home listener.

Release date: September 13th 2019
