Papa Records are back, back with a bang, with a quality 2nd release for 2025 as we present the Diplomats Of Soul featuring Incognito & Vanessa Haynes – Sweet Power Your Embrace, the Terry Hunter & Emmaculate Remixes.

Sweet Power Your Embrace is, of course, James Mason's seminal Jazz-Funk masterpiece. It was originally recorded in 1977 for his debut solo album, Rhythm Of Life, released on New York independent label Chiaroscuro.
James Mason was a guitarist and keyboardist who, in the late 1970s, was a member of Roy Ayers’ band, Ubiquity, appearing on the 1977 album Lifeline and prominently on the showcase cut Running Away.

Mike Allin & Ralph Tee, aka Diplomats Of Soul, teamed up with Jean-Paul ‘Bluey’ Maunick and his legendary enterprise, Incognito, to rework this classic in 2015. The gorgeous interpretation was topped off with the powerful, soulful vocals of chanteuse Vanessa Haynes and was released on Ralph’s long-standing & hugely respected Expansion Records.

Mirror Ball Recordings label owners and all-around good guys Terry Hunter and Eric ‘Emmaculate’ Welton join the party with a stunning set of remixes that honour the musicality of the original while adding that Chicago bump and groove for the dance floor.

Neil Pierce Biography

Neil Pierce may be known as a DJ, Producer, Remixer and Label Manager but all these titles can be summed up with one thing in common – he is a name you can rely on for good quality soulful house music you can dance to.  Playing exclusives to classics, gospel to dubs, Neil’s DJ sets are full of energy that never fail to take you on a musical journey that will have you smiling and letting loose on the dance floor.

It was whilst Neil was the Manager of Release the Groove record shop in London’s Soho that he began to make his way in the industry and became friends with many of the people that he would eventually play alongside.  It wasn’t long before Neil was DJing at legendary nights such as Garage City and Paul Trouble Anderson’s Loft parties in Camden.


In 2001, a new night was launched at the infamous Ministry of Sound super-club in London.  That night was Soul Heaven and it soon became a club night synonymous with playing quality house music with soul.  It is of no surprise then that not long after its launch, Neil was asked to be a Soul Heaven resident.  Nearly a decade later and Neil continues to be part of the Soul Heaven nights representing the brand in the UK and Worldwide.

In 2003, Neil partnered up with fellow Soul Heaven resident Aaron Ross as producers under the name Fanatix.  Since their collaboration, they have made a name for themselves by working with some amazing artists such as Blaze, Kimara Lovelace, KOT, Kenny Bobien, Roy Ayers and Stephanie Cooke, as well as homegrown talents, Terri Walker, Kele le Roc, Jamiroquai, Alex Mills, Don-E and Sunburst Band.  Recognition for their music came with releases on respected major ‘house’ labels including Sony, Defected, BBE, Ricanstruction, ZR, Def Jam, Soulgroove and of course Soul Heaven Records.

In March 2008, Fanatix released their debut album, There It Is on London based label BBE to great critical acclaim and the No. 1 spot on Traxsource. The album was raved about from all the top Dj’s in the scene, and it was also licenced to Toys Factory in Japan.
 
During this time, Neil also found time to work on some solo projects.  In 2005 he set up his own label Hustle Music which most famously is responsible for originally signing The Way You Love Me by Ron Hall & The Muthafunkas featuring Marc Evans which is now a house classic.

Neil’s reputation for recognizing and pioneering good music continued to grow and in 2009 he was the obvious choice to replace Aaron Ross as Label Manager at Soul Heaven Records.  As well as finding new up and coming artists and music, this gave Neil the opportunity to put out his own music and in 2010, his debut solo record Relish Your Soul performed by Kadija Kamara was released on Soul Heaven Records.  Written by Neil, Kadija and Mike Patto (Reel People) this cutting edge soulful house track received huge support from DJs worldwide.

In May 2013 Neil and Ziggy Launched Rhemi Music .Their first release (a remix of a the classic “call on me “ by Fanatix  reached number number 2 on the singles chart on traxsource and from there it’s snowballed like crazy. In just a few years they have had countless Number 1 hits including the club anthems “Diamond”, ‘Mask Off” ‘Back to the one” and ‘Shake Your Body Down”.and they have remixed for Joey Negro, Dj Spen, Louie Vega and Sandy Rivera to name but a few. Rhemi also released their first compilation on Dj Spen’s Quantize Recordings.

At the end of 2016 Rhemi were placed 4th on the world for Soulful House producers on Traxsource.com which is highly regarded as the biggest download site for underground house music. Please see the article here … http://news.traxsource.com/articles/2484/100-soulful-house-artists-of-2016

2017 is set to be a massive year for Neil, with non-stop studio commitments as well as his Deep Into Soul Party at the POW packed to capacity every month, and a string of releases on countless labels, he is definitely one to watch !
