News
I Am Sam is a singer songwriter with a groove and a point. Born and bred
in south London but now based in Sydney, Australia, I Am Sam has been making
waves with his blend of laid back grooves, humorous, relevant lyrics and hooks
that stick like super glue. The writing and recording of I Am Sam’s
forthcoming debut album ‘A Sober Thought’, took place in the UK with production
duo
JetTricks
at the helm, crafting a long player that is a journey through pop culture mixed
up with a sprinkle of hip hop and a dash of reggae sauce for flavour all seen
through the eyes of Sam. The sunshine of OZ with the hard edge of the UK
come together
with an ease and form
that’s perfect for the summer. This
Londoner is definitely
kickin’ it with the release of his debut single
Let It Pump c/w Heartstrings & Where's That Love?.
The release date set is 23rd August, so get ready to turn the volume up and get ya sunglasses
on.
It’s over a year since South London production team
JetTricks debut album
Remote Control was released to great critical acclaim and Paul Elliott and Jamie
Lawrence have been busy recording their follow up
All One Word released on
Légère Recordings
in April. Not content with their signature infectious grooves and hooks,
they've collaborated with a host of singers and musicians including Detroit’s
soul man Marcus Malone ,
UK songstress Andrea
Britton, the ballistic Hammond of
Stephen ‘Lord’ Large and ‘Noisettes’ guitar wizard Dan Smith. JetTricks
love of all music is evident and remains the core of their belief that different
genres can lay side by side on an album and boundaries are just there to
be crossed.
Release in Spring
Rodina’s
debut album
Over
the Sun is a cool blend of chill-out and pop. Originally from Co.
Laois in Ireland she moved to the UK as a youngster and grew up within the
diverse Leeds music scene. Rodina has a unique style of her own and has
been compared to Morcheeba, Goldfrapp & the legendary Astrud Gilberto.
With ethereal vocals and a great depth in production, her self-penned songs are catchy and
embracing. Over The Sun features The Haggis
Horns (Mark Ronson's live band &
 horn section for Jamiroquai & Amy Winehouse)
and Joe Tatton (Corinne Bailey Rae & The New Mastersounds) who also
produced the album. March saw the release of the double-A
side single
Always Had A Dream
&
Over The Sun.
2010 should be a great year for Rodina.
Adam Gibbons aka
Lack Of Afro has established an unrivalled reputation as one of
the most crucial names at work in funk and dance music today. His 2007
debut album Press
On
was a labour of love for Adam who applied his skills
as producer/DJ, composer &
multi-instrumentalist to create this contemporary classic.
With My Groove, Your Move, released on Freestyle in October
2009, the signature Lack
Of Afro elements remain with tracks
like Special Baby,
 Mo' Filth & Beautiful Here and Adam introduces vocal
contributions from
Wax & Herbal T on
International
& the
amazing
Roxie Ray (Dojo Cuts) on
Tell Me What Happens Now. My Groove, Your
Move is an even more confident, assured and mature collection than
its predecessor.
