Deep End by ShelBee 

I heard this tune the very first time a few weeks ago and instantly liked it, not only bc of it’s sparse use of instrumentation but mostly bc of Shel Bees phrasing, intonation and the way she delivers the top lines. A seriously good singer in the making, with an honest voice that needs more attention on the streaming world of today. That’s why i sent it off to our team to work and release the track. While i am currently on vacation i think the signing is on the way and we can look at pitching it properly when the summers over and all the streaming offices and bureaus are all back to business as usual. Won’t be earlier than mid to late September sadly, but no worries, a good solid tune takes longer to grow these days. And even longer for an artist to finally break into the mainstream. Consistency is key in releases, and if one or two do not work make sure to keep on keeping on. I am writing this well in mind that Shel Bee might read this, so i just want to encourage young striving acts to maintain the course and not get discouraged if things do not shape up instantly as one would wish. In the long run, they will.

There’s an old Chinese proverb that says : “If you wanna go fast, go alone. But if you wish to go far, go together.” And that’s how is see our relation with this young talent!

Ps i heard one of our most talented young cats, Wolfskind, will be working with you in October in LA. So we went full circle w/o knowing that this would happen, and that it would all stay in the family. Wolfskind aka Lucas is a key producer in our deal with Universal Music and sincerely my adopted son (musically), whom you will have lots of fun with ;)

for you by olive b

Probably my favorite tune this past month. Passed this on to the right people already, this needs a major release in the EU, this fall. Hell i want to release & promote it myself. Awesome effort Olive! And she seems to do it effortlessly. Not overdoing it vocally, or on songwriting or production wise, thus still sounding honest and playful. “Awesome” applies here. Ps Her soundcloud says : singer // songwriter // freestyler ;) – sweet

Follow Olive and give her a hug on  :::  :::  ::: 

Darci – Seeing Colors

Not much to say here, but give it a listen and go from “unimpressed” to totally “captured” by this tune. Darci’s first offering, at least that i noticed w/o doing any research, left a great impression on me. He must have previous releases with 7k SC followers, but everything is a stream/ is a blur these days and nobody got time for that. And “Seeing Colours” manages to go from slightly weird to super modern state of the art zeitgeist pop. And it happens naturally, almost like a sonic remedy. Well done sir! Now we know your name.

Spark (Ft. Dasha Akelin) by The Golden Pony

Another big choon, The Golden Pony delivers one after the other, these guys are gonna be huge soon, but it’s built on consistency instead of just a hype that fades out. What i always liked about them is that they don’t shy away from taking on any kind of sound or any style. Meaning there are always tons of diverse people that can go for it, perfect for the eclectic but still dance oriented floor. Many floors these days are just like Zombies waiting for that drop to spaz out. TGP was never like that, even if they take a popular formula like this and last years, house chords meets chopped vocals, or use a drop they still dodge the cheesy bullet by inserting their own kind of magic, and it’s great for the real big rooms as well as the petite little dj stints. So in my book they are on the best way to becoming a proper dance taste maker. And once they have reached that international recognition, they will not only be huge, but everybody’s gonna be like “how did that happen?” – and it’s gonna be the same answer as always “through consistency and hard work!”  Welcome.

Jazzpah – Flutter (Feat. Ashley Lawless) VIP EDIT

Best artwork out there. A gamer at work – love it. I wish more tracks “looked” like this, the track itself is serious quality too. I with the phenomenal vocals were louder while still as haunting. The Future bass drop is a necessity in the minds of many late trenders, while the style is already fading out. But already now the future synth drop feels so much like a generic style in Aug 2017. You mastered it Jazzpah! Vocals anyway but also production wise – on to the next level! But the next level is a whole new electronic style that will focus even more on vocals and top lining so you are well equipped for that!  I passed this on to my label partners, this track is lovely and worth a serious release &  push on Spotify!
