Leeds finest exponents of mutant, ambient Latin pop,
Orgatronics made their Café Del Mar debut last year and this Summer's triple CD edition Cafe Del Mar Vol. 15 features their original composition Tren Lento a Juliaca.  Orgatronics is the brainchild of producer duo Sam Bell and Rich Arthurs who created a unique fusion of Latin, pop and electronic sounds.  Café Del Mar is the world's best selling series of Balearic Chill Out collections and this year Cafe Del Mar celebrates 15 years of music with this triple CD collection of fresh ambient sounds to evoke memories of the famous sunset at the Café Del Mar in San Antonio, Ibiza.  



Press On is the debut album from funk boy-wonder Lack Of Afro.  This young dude has been going since the age of 7 and now, at 26, Adam Gibbons is being hailed as "the next Quantic".  Press On was a labour of love for Adam who applied his skills as producer/DJ, multi-instrumentalist and prolific composer - all but one of the songs are LOA originals - to create this contemporary classic.  Highlights include the does-exactly-what-it-says-on-the-tin Pure Filth; an inspired interpretation of the Arctic Monkeys’ When the Sun Goes Down and the sublime genius of Touch My Soul, featuring the voice of Steve Marriott which was a single release on 31st March in an 'Ogden's Nut Gone Flake' styled sleeve.  In September 2007 LOA made it onto "God's Jukebox" when Mark Lamarr invited LOA to record a live session for his BBC Radio 2 show at the legendary Maida Vale Studios in London.

Corinne Bailey Rae’s silky-yet fragile voice is sublime on the beautiful and evocative Your Love Is Mine, which was one of the breeziest grooves of Summer 2006.  Corinne wrote the song with The New Mastersounds for inclusion on their 2003 album Be Yourself and upon its re-release in 2006 this classic track achieved massive UK radio airplay spending 6 weeks on the BBC Radio 2 playlist.  Your Love Is Mine is on numerous compilation albums worldwide and features in the 2007 Morgan Freeman, Radha Mitchell & Greg Kinnear movie Feast of Loveoriginal soundtrack album and in the USA in Fox TV's Hidden Palms and in two episodes of ABC TV's new drama/comedy Cashmere Mafia.

Joana Zimmer struck double gold in 2005 with her hit single 'I Believe' and debut top 5 hit album 'My Innermost'.  Her latest album The Voice In Me on (Polydor) Universal went straight in at No. 22 in the first German Media Control Album Chart of 2007.  Once again Joana satisfies through beautiful ballads and great pop songs that touch the listener.  Listen to her stunning interpretation of Douglas Shawe (Hand Picked Songs/Big World Publishing) & Big World Publishing's Chris Hinson's Don't Touch Me There.

Big World Publishing's music encompasses all genres from pop, rock, R&B & dance to Classical Crossover from the Musical Creations songwriting team
to the dopest  deep funk of Leeds finest The New Mastersounds with their latest album Plug & Play.  After a year of intensive touring in the USA NMS deliver their fifth studio album featuring the phenomenal soulful vocals of Dionne Charles on Looking For An Answer plus  three more tracks and Troy Howe – a Kenyan playwright & veteran of the British asylum system – who tells his story over a frenzied afro-funk groove in Kuna Matata.  The band, with Eddie Roberts at the helm, have distilled a collective musical heritage into this exciting new record which, whilst wearing its influences with pride, nonetheless sounds unmistakably like The New Mastersounds.  Released on One Note Records (UK) / P-Vine (Japan)

Just released on Freestyle Records is Malena's debut album Fried Samba.  Malena are
the Southpaw Production team of Dan Broad & Chip Wickham & singer/songwriter Susana Montero.  Fried Samba represents a long road of releases for Malena.  Born at the height of Latin House in 2001, Malena has grown from the world of funky Latin house into the darker waters of breaks & beats.  It’s a bit Salsoul mixed with a Brazilian Cool and a dark slice of Serge Gainsbourg.  Although at home in the studio, Malena also have a kick-ass 8-piece band, which has been turning heads and moving feet across the UK.  The Malena sound is set to explode at their Jazz Cafe album showcase on Saturday 9th August when the band perform No Llores Mas, Querria Mentir and a stack more Latin grooves from Fried Samba.

Music Like Dirt


Big World Publishing's subsidiary Music Like Dirt features some of the best classic reggae music from the 60's, 70's & 80's by reggae legends The Ethiopians, Rico, Byron Lee, The Pioneers, Ansell Collins, Frankie Paul and many more.

Originally released in 1973 Star Trek did little to attract the record-buying public's interest; the passing of the years has resulted in the album achieving cult status among both Reggae fans and the trendy Easy Listening set.  Written & produced by Music Like Dirt's Desmond Bryan & Webster Shrowder together with Joe Sinclair & Bunny Lee this Moog synthesizer reggae extravaganza features Star Trek & Dracula and nine more original classics.  It's a re-release that's out of this world!

This double CD set on Trojan Records gathers all of the Ethiopians’ best-known releases over their nine-year career, commencing with their earliest Ska-flavoured hits and closing with their final collaborations in 1975.  The importance of the group’s influence upon the development of Roots music in the seventies has often been over-looked, an over-sight which this anthology sets out to address.  Included in this set are the Music Like Dirt classics Everything Crash & The Word Is Love
