Ethel Lindsey – Pretty Close [Favorite Recordings]

“Pretty Close”, the debut from Ethel Lindsey is steeped in 80s soul and pop rhythms. “Together Again” is RnB flavored Pop with lush grooves and superbly sung by Lindsey. “Love Paved The Way” is a warm ballad driven by tight vocal and horn arrangements. The song will transport you to a slow dance at the club with your honey towards the end of the night. “Make You Mine” is a down-tempo stroll on the boardwalk on a warm Summer night. Written and produced by Lindsey, this is a delightful trip to a bygone era.
Mr Kafer – A Past Sense [Melting Pot Music]

Austrian born producer Mr Kafer has made a name for himself by crafting jazzy hip-hop instrumentals. With his third solo album he ventures into new territory. “A Past Sense” contains lush compositions with live instrumentation. In addition he has compiled an array of underrated artists to elevate his work. “B-Stone” is a sublime jazzy hip-hop instrumental that features Franz Bumm on keys. “Green Roses” is a mellow soulful tune aided by Cologne based beatmaker Leavv. Berlin based vocalist Novine’s warm and gentle touch takes the tune to another level. Guitarist Van Nay’s clever phrasing complements Bumm’s blissful keys on “Melange”. If you didn’t know Mr Kafer before then it’s time to get familiar. He’s arranged an album filled with rhythm, harmony and melody. An invigorating release worthy of repeated listens.

Charles Webster & The South African Connection – From The Hill [Stay True Sounds]

“From The Hill” is the new release from UK Producer Charles Webster. This is the follow up to 2020’s “Decision Time”, which was his first release in two decades. With “Decision Time”, Webster’s affection for South African rhythms was apparent across several tracks. He moved to Cape Town many years ago and some of his recordings have become a fixture in the clubs from Cape Town to Johannesburg. This release reveals a deep drive into the music and the culture he has become a part of. The South African Connection represents a contingent of DJs and musicians Webster has grown to know and collaborate with over the years. “Free” is seven minutes of ethereal mid-tempo bliss. He’s joined by Soweto born electronic producer Atmos Blaq. It embodies the signature South African sound with punchy bass grooves and melodic piano progressions. “Rain” is awash with warm guitar rhythms and hypnotic percussion. The vocals of Emamkay & Bokang Ramatlapeng layered on top makes for a spiritual genre bending journey. Vocalist Sio, who performed on “Decision Time” lends her soulful voice to “Film Me”. Released on Stay True Sounds, the premier South African label for infectious House and hip-hop. The record is a triumph in weaving together the sounds of the underground and the vast landscape of artists and producers. You need this in your collection.

“Earth Is Begging” is a collaboration between Danish instrumental sextet Sunborn and Italian DJ/Prodcuer Clap Clap. Their project is a global melting pot of infectious electronic production and live instrumentation. Sunborn has built a worldwide following due to their vibrant rhythm section and soulful horns. Clap Clap has amassed an array of electronic dance floor compositions and remixes.

The genre bending grooves will transport you to a Summertime party on the beach. Afrobeat star Dele Sosimi jumps on the title track, a simmering mid-tempo tune. The sunny vibes flow throughout this album. Lay your burdens down and let these feel good compositions sink into your body.
