Kylie Auldist – Is It Fun (Richard Earnshaw Extended SugarSoul Mix) – Soul Bank Music
Not only a great vocal to work with but it actually is fun blending the original live elements with my own additions.
Opolopo, Angela Johnson – Good Lover (Vocal Mix) – Reel People Music
Opolopo has an unmistakable sound which tickles me in all the right places.
Natural Rhythm – Jive (Saison Remix) – No Fuss Records
The Saison bounce just encourages all sorts of moving about… so good.
Richard Earnshaw & Mike City – Still Possible (Extended Bounce) – Duffnote
A track which took almost 4 years to “mature” on the hard drive and finally ready to release to the public
George Cynnamon – My Destination EP (Faith In People) – Salted Music
Been a fan of Salted Music since it’s inception… and this just does it for me. Rhodes, grooves… sorted!
Moodena – Do What You Wanna Do (Original Mix) – Tropical Disco Records
A man who knows how to make my trousers swing… and this is a trouser swinging belter!
Ridney, Inner Spirit, Michael Sebastian – White Isle Memories (Extended Mix) Paharas Musica
Created remotely in studios all over during the pandemic, nostalgic and optimistic at the same time
Daz-I-Kue, Jill Rock Jones – Tell The Story (Vocal Mix) – Foliage Records
One of my favourite labels on the soulful/afro vibe… this has all the ingredients present and correct.
The Shapeshifters, Aria Lyric – YOLO (Extended Mix) – Glitterbox Recordings
At the forefront of all things modern disco, a great sentiment with all the horns!!
Casbah 73 – In The Dark (Horns Mix) – Lovemonk
Speaking of horns, this is raw and right up my alley.
Kylie Auldist – Is It Fun (Richard Earnshaw SugarSoul Mix) is out now on Soul Bank Music
