This black bird has been recorded in front my house by myself

A_Black_Bird_Part1

Although our mission has always been to celebrate life through music and dance, we can’t ignore the harsh realities from this past year. It’s been the most turbulent and divisive one in modern history. “WE RISE,” Groove Junkies & Solara’s highly anticipated follow up to their 2017 dance hit “Perception,” touches a nerve that most people from all corners of the world can relate to. It’s a song of protest that depicts the level of frustration that the majority of us have been experiencing and many have already acted upon. “WE RISE” is an assertive, yet peaceful call to action…one that’s filled with hope n’ love that will have you singing along upon first listen and mos’ definitely movin’ your feet!

This time around Groove Junkies & Solara have joined forces with world renowned Artist, Producer & DJ Peter Major (aka Opolopo). Fate must have been working overtime when the 3 met late last year for the 1st time in Los Angeles. Mutual respect and like-mindedness led their initial discussion to explore a possible collaboration and here we are.

Opolopo is Yoruban for "plenty", a word that best exemplifies the diversity of this production wizard’s musical voyage. He came to the attention for many as the man behind the genre-crossing house remix of Gregory Porter’s ‘1960 What?’, a tune that finished in the Top Ten of many DJs in 2012. His music spans over two decades on labels such as Local Talk, JVC Japan, Z Records, Om Records, Warner Brothers, Sony/BMG, Defected. Collaborations/remixes include Grammy nominated vocalist Gregory Porter, Omar, Steve Arrington, Lisa Stansfield, Shaun Escoffery, Sandy Barber, The Sunburst Band, Mario Biondi, Azymuth, Dazz Band, Mr. V, and Leroy Burgess. He currently owns the #1 position on Traxsource for his stealth remix of Rapson’s “Heat” on Defected and shows no signs of slowing down. We are beyond thrilled to have him on board and part of our extended MoHo fam.

1st INSTALLMENT: 'GJs & Opolopo Main Mix' is a soulful, afro-tinged treatment that showcases the combined efforts of three veterans of dance culture with some serious House music pedigree who are on top of their game. Essential!

2nd INSTALLMENT REMIX PACKAGE - INCLUDES OPOLOPO REMIX & MIKKI AFFLICK REMIX

Groove Junkies, Opolopo & Solara "WE RISE" (GJs & Opolopo Main Mix) Snippet - House

Remixes out Aug 31: https://jazzanova.lnk.to/EverythingIWantedRemixes
Jazzanova - The Pool: https://jazzanova.lnk.to/ThePool

Jazzanova consume to welcome a series of excellent remixes of tracks form their latest and great album, The Pool. Next up is the legendary house shaman Osunlade, who serves up four fantastic versions of ‘Everything I Wanted’ feat. Charlotte OC. 

Osunlade is the Yoruba Records boss and spiritual character with an uplifting, jazzy, deep and afro tinged house sound. Born in St Louis, Missouri, he is a hugely prolific musician, composer and producer who brings spellbinding moods and grooves to everything he does, as these four new remixes prove once again. 

Opening things up is the Yoruba Soul Mix, which flips the original into a steamy, surging house track with smeared synths propping up the expressive vocal and loose percussion. An instrumental version of this one allows the soft edged keys and supple rubber drums to come to the fore and cast their spell on the dance floor. 

Then comes a Beats Mix which is all about the woody, organic drums and scattered hits. The result is a warm and infectious track that is perfectly designed to get bodies moving, and last of all is a Yoruba Soul Stripped Mix. The fantastic vocal is the centre piece, with knocking percussion and underlapping drums all adding to the spine tingling nature of this most soulful house track. 

Over the past decade the German group, consisting of Alexander Barck, Claas Brieler, Jürgen von Knoblauch, Stefan Leisering and Axel Reinemer, have worked on a multitude of projects. They’ve toured live with the band, hosted radio shows, DJed, remixed tracks by Hugh Masekela, Joe Bataan, Aron Ottignon, Malika Ayane (and many more), curated their labels Sonar Kollektiv and Notes On A Journey and recorded a live studio sessions album of some of their most beloved work. It’s been 23 years since they first got together, and their latest album drew from all those years of experience while exploring new territories.

Jazzanova - Everything I Wanted Feat. Charlotte OC (Yoruba Soul Mix)- Snippet

Quickly building a following as purveyors of some of the very finest edits around, Samosa Records announce the 7th release since their debut just over a year ago. 
Back for his 3rd appearance on the label is none other than big boss De Gama, dropping off a truly tropical package with the ‘Back 2 Afrika’ EP. 
Whether he’s showcasing the true warmth and joie de vivre of the continent soca-style on ‘Tropical Boogie’, or setting off into the organ-and-horn-fueled delirium of ‘Cosmic Safari’, De Gama is on a mission to turn up the temperature. 
And with a fresh, remastered edit of the best-selling dancefloor destroyer that is ‘AfrikA’ on the flip, winter 2018 might just go down in the books as the warmest one on record.  [Listen Closely]
