In response to the overwhelming amount of quality music that becomes available daily, we've created the Soulection White Label series (SWL) in a digital form. The series will highlight short 2-4 track EP's that really spotlight the true craftsmanship of each artist from some of the most forward-thinking creators worldwide. As our mission of breaking new artists and spreading music far and wide through our official releases continues, we present the White Label Series on Soundcloud only to expose as much talent as possible.

Here we are on another grateful Friday and returning with one of our veterans from the Soulection crew: AbJo. This man has not only been around since the beginning of Soulection but has also been one who has truly stayed true to his signature and diverse sound. 

It is tough to replicate his sound. On this White Label, AbJo takes us on a musical journey full of complex but intricate drum patterns that are full of melodies and rhythms that fall into place some how, some way. This is that deep thought music and if you enjoy this... please feel free to share it!

DOWNLOAD

On November 12th, singer/songwriter Ab & beat-smith 14KT will release the collaboration album, “Saturn Return.” Five years in the making, the progressive soul album was created during a transitory period of their lives. 

While on the surface the album seems to be about a story of a man and woman, it’s also about growing up and reexamining choices to have a better future. Fittingly called Saturn Return after the astrological transit that everyone experiences between ages 27-30, this collaboration between Ab and 14KT show two artists that combine their years of musical experience and personal angst to create a soulful, galactic journey that everyone can relate to.

The first single from the album is a co-produced funk record titled “Lover’s Galaxy” that is reminiscent of legends “Zapp & Roger” due to Ab’s use of the vocoder on top off 14KT’s rhythmic drum pulse.  “Lover’s Galaxy” is the introduction to the holy matrimony of 14KT’s hard-hitting drums and euphoric atmosphere coupled with Ab’s melodic and soulful approach to instrumentation. 

“Lover’s Galaxy” is also the beginning of the story of “Ab” and “Lalah”, two fictional characters that are caught in a whirlwind romance throughout the entire Saturn Return album. On this record we meet Ab as he’s attempting to court Lalah and encouraging her to “let her guard down.” The invitation is as much for Lalah as it is for the listener that is beginning this journey into a rare soul album with a definitive purpose. 

Lover's Galaxy is available for free download at http://www.saturnreturnalbum.com

If you aren't familiar with starRo yet then this may be the moment where his name and music will really resonate with you. We had the pleasure of meeting him back in May 2013 and became ecstatic when we realized that he is based in LA.  Originally from Japan, starRo is a multi-instrumentalist with expertise as a guitarist/keyboardist. With all this in mind, 2014 will be a special year for starRo and Soulection. 

"This White Label reflects 4 love stories and I hope everyone can feel it in their own way. The sound direction is also a progression of where I am headed in 2014. Thank you for listening." -starRo

As we are getting ready for SXSW we wanted to get you in the spirit. Joe Kay went solo again to keep things simple and focused. He kicked it off with the new Carmack/Esta collab, played some new discoveries/unreleased gems, and then switched up the whole format by letting the live listener selects the music by sending us our requests via our social media networks. What a beautiful thing! For over 2 hours, you had the chance to selects the music, Joe was just the provider! What a great way to collaborate right? Since we will be at SXSW from (March 11-16) there won't be a live Soulection Radio show next week, however, we do have a special guest mix to make up for it. Stay tuned.

" Dedicated to & inspired by the people in my life. Each track is named after someone who I feel has made a huge impact on my life & the way I see the world. I got sounds that reminded me of them (favorite songs,movie scenes,etc.) and made tracks from those samples after I would spend time with them..talk to them..or even just think of them. I tried to put whatever emotion I had from those moments into song form. During the time I was making this project I had a lot of things going on with my life..working on these songs helped me get my mind off everything. It was great because I didn't have to leave my own room to go to another place,all I had to do was close my eyes and listen. It was a fun idea that turned into a whole project that helped me more than I thought it was. I'm happy to share it with you. Much love to anyone who supports my music & all I wish for is to inspire some minds..."

It felt good to be back after being away from the studio for 4 weeks. We've been traveling for the past month spreading The Sound of Tomorrow at SXSW, WMC, and now Asia. The pros of being away for so long meant that Joe stacked up on plenty of music for the past month which makes up for the lost time, trust. There is too much to say and talk about but shout out to all of the amazing people who came out to our shows to see and connect with us. We are very grateful! 

Next week Joe Kay wiil be @ Coachella but that won't stop Soulection Radio this time. Stay tuned.
