Reel People are back. Back to their roots. Back to the future. Back with a bang. Eagerly awaited album Retroflection was released on October 19th 2018 and saw the revered collective recreating 12 soul, disco and boogie classics pivotal to their formation nearly 20 years ago and subsequent hugely successful evolution.

Reel People Music now give us the third instalment of many remix packages to be taken from Retroflection as the legendary German maestro Mousse T. beautifully reworks I Need Your Lovin’.

Reel People team up LaSharVu – a white-hot amalgam of Sharlene Hector and fellow female powerhouses Vulu Malinga and LaDonna Harley-Peters – to smartly re-dress Teena Marie’s classic I Need Your Lovin’.

Retroflection is Reel People’s first full studio album in 10 years (following acclaimed releases Second Guess and Seven Ways To Wonder, as well as compilation work including Golden Lady), Retroflection reflects the highest possible level of passion and polish. Such soulful devotion and craftmanship has ever been a Reel People hallmark. Recorded in London and Atlanta over an intense 12-month period, Retroflection also avoids the formulaic overload of modern beats and basslines that countless others pursue. Here the past is artfully reawakened, Reel People’s talented cast of performers – overseen by experienced studio-hands Lazarus, Mike Patto, Matt Cooper (of Incognito fame) and Toni Economides - re-treading classic riffs with new yet respectful purpose. Their compelling neo-soul blend of now and then should awe diehards and newcomers alike. Retroflection is one hell of a return.

On 20th November 2020, Reel People roll back into town with their first original material in over a decade. The Dancing On The Moon EP, produced by core members Oli Lazarus, Mike Patto and Toni Economides, will lead out a brand new album, Love2, later this year. Weaving contemporary R&B vibes into the collective’s classic, groove-fired flow, the album promises a powerful evolution of the Reel People sound.

EP opener I Never Knew is pure pomp, pace and purpose – fizzing bars courtesy of Arrested Development’s Speech riding an irresistible cosmic groove in fine style and expressing perfectly the out-and-out euphoria of love. If I Was Your Man, fronted by Michael Champion, bounces standout R&B vocals over some seriously swaggering piano stomp and soul personality, whilst Atlanta songstress Chantae Cann applies subtle, silky finesse to Dance In Her Eyes. Here, Cann’s dreamy vocals segue into moody synth-funk topped by Philly rapper Dayne Jordan’s dextrous rhymes, adding further intensity to this time-honoured tale of fleeting dancefloor love. Save A Lil Love rounds the package off, New Jersey stalwart Eric Roberson as engaging as ever over a zinging future-soul fusion of spacy synths and pulsing b-line.

Dancing On The Moon EP  tells us that the collective are totally back. New songs, new vibes, but the same soulful soothe, groove and sparkle. Upcoming album Love2 promises to build on this, with further guest turns from Raheem DeVaughn, Paula, Muhsinah and Darlene McCoy. Stay tuned for more Reel People music soon.
