Vincent-Paolo, one of our latest additions, is a 25 year-old electronic music producer from Holland, who is based in Amsterdam and sometimes Bristol, UK. We first discovered him a few years back thanks to Koen and immediately we knew that Vincent was more than gifted. In fact, we had to had to include him on our Soulection Compilation Volume 2: Time In Between. '3000 Walls' is one of those intricate tracks that has you hitting play over and over as you're trying to figure out how he came up with this.

"Most of the time you start off with a melody, but I was going through my stuff and I sat down after like 10-15 minutes I stood up really quickly and started walking in my room. When I was walking I got really dizzy and was looking at the walls and they were really spaced out like I was seeing ''3000 walls''. So I started making this track and was thinking about what happened at that time.Trying to mimic that spacey feeling I had a loop and then I got an email from Converse to work in their studio so I finished it."

Look out for Vincent's debut Soulection EP in the near future.

Vincent-Paolo - 3000 Walls

Soulection recently collaborated with Team Supreme (https://soundcloud.com/beatteamsupreme) for their weekly beat cyphers and put out one of the best volumes to date. Soulection Co-founder Joe Kay chose the sample 'Add the Bassline' from the very talented vocalist/producer Jordan Rakei who hopefully puts out a release with Soulection in the coming months. One of our heavy hitters Evil Needle thankfully participated in the beat cypher and created this amazing remix that ended up being so good that he had to extend it from 1 minute to a complete track. We couldn't help but share this track with you and give you an idea of what's to come.

Our very own Insightful is so diverse with the beats. This dude can literally hit every BPM and energy seamlessly. He sent us this a few weeks ago and we knew this one had to be shared with you. He layered his bass infused beat with Big Sean's vocals from 'Dance (A$$)' and pretty much created a whole new song. This is that festival music. This is one of those tracks that DJs and producers will go out of their way to peak at your screen and want to know what it is. Insightful has a new album coming out next month (October 17, 2013) called "Elsewhere". Make sure to stay tuned for that. It's on a whole other feel good vibe, trust.

Share this one with everyone.

Disparate producers with complimentary sounds, Evil Needle and Sivey met in an online beat community 6 years ago and to this day have never met in real life. On June 24, 2014 they present their first official EP, 'Constructive Interference', to the world. 'Constructive Interference' was created over the span of 3 years and embodies the unique soundscapes of each producer. 

Today, we are excited to share with you the single, "Constructive Interference" - a dreamy, bass-heavy, broken beat jam that really nicely sums up the feel of the collaborative sounds between Evil Needle & Sivey. 

Evil Needle, based in Strasbourg France [just on the border of Germany] pulls inspiration from traditional hip hop, neo-soul and trap music while seamlessly weaving in open synths and chunky chord progressions. Manchester, UK-based Sivey incorporates soulful beat-oriented music with what he calls "emotional highs and lows that are still musically stimulating" adding a beautifully uptempo sensibility.

The two come together to create a big sound vibration that is reminiscent of the round sound of vinyl – this time in a digital version.

Two of our favorite upcoming acts Penthouse Penthouse & Chloe Martini teamed up for this amazing collaborative track that displays where the future of Funk, Soul, and R&B are progressing towards. Forget genres and tags though, this is just purely good music! Between Chloe Martini's diverse production range and P.P.'s signature R&B/soulful emphasis, this supreme collab makes us wonder what a full EP would sound like! In fact, make sure to pay close attention to these two, the Sound of Tomorrow is looking quite bright.
