"Come a Lil Closer" (Aphreme feat.Donald Sheffey)- Octave Moods Records
Out Now!
http://bit.ly/5vcBPN
Yes!! Yes !! This is wassup! "Come a lil Closer" w/Donald Sheffey on vocals.This is exactly what we need,more male vocals representing and done correct.I've had this track playing on my mind for a few days now.Some quality producers like Dj Aphreme,John Crockett,Jozana(Dayum!!),and Deep Ya'll drop thier own interpretation and show nothing but class and give Donald a reason to want to sing to this music.Qualtiy release all around! Can't find a favorite mix for this package.
Tracklist.
01 Original Mix (6:54) *Nothing like the original's but this package I'll make an exception of the other mixes
02 John Crockett Rework Vocal Mix (8:39) - This mix is all that and more!
03 Aphreme Jayiva Mix (6:14) - More on the Perc-a-pella side,this mix is still wonderful in it's own right and deep-house is represented here.
04 Jozana's Pill Hill Mix (7:16) - Jozana did a fantastic job on this particular mix..
05 Deep Y'all Mix (6:45) - Minimal but still effective,this mix is really all that !
06 Aphreme Oldschool Dub Mix (5:48) - This Dub is hot ! Welcome to the nu-ol-skool !
07 Radio Edit (3:41)
08 Instrumental Mix (6:55)
09 John Crockett Rework Instrumental Mix (8:39)

http://bit.ly/6mPETL (Link to archive)
What can I say?? Another label that has been pumpin out good stuff.Nothing "MORE" to say other than that Stephaine Cooke has been smokin as usual.The vocals are just beautiful,with a nice mix by Dj Hypnosis.The Original Mix does it for me but don' sleep on the "Deep Dub" & the Remastered Vocal Dub of which brings out the best in this track.
01 Original Vocal Mix
02 Deep Dub
03 Remastered Vocal Dub
04 Dj Hypnosis Afro Disco Mix

The Grooveland Music family come together to release another hit on this already hot label.Kicking off 2010 with "People Dancing" with dope mixes by production partners Tarek and Luis Ramirez (aka Licksamba),Tommy Largo,Jay Tripwire Remix,SoulBasics,Mimi throws down a serious mix titled "Puzzlehead Remix,while Emilio Rebenga's throws down an electrofied version aka Tech-House version that Im sure your crowd will love.Can't forget the nice vocal addition by J.A.M.O.N. which makes this release one of those move your crowd at any moment when played record.HEAT!
What I really dig about this release is the diverse versions offered are just marvelous! From deep-house to electro and tech-house,there is something for everyone...
Cant pick a favortie mix in this package,pick anyone for they all worth it IMO.
"Blaq & Mild E.P" (Rasmir Mantree) - Mantree Records.
Played it on the show Monday-
http://bit.ly/6mPETL (Link to archive)
Rasmir continues his qwest and contributes a pretty nice E.P entitled "Blaq n Mild E.P"..This producer has been on the underated list for a minute.When I first heard this E.P,I almost passed on a really good E.P,with that said "Blaq n Mild" is a nice track with added flutes and guiter sounds like an ol skool track but with an updated beat and chants is not bad."Mid Life" is indeed a nice piece surrounded mild piano riffs and percussions,and to complete this package we have "Satin Romance" a pumpy percussion joint with latin flavors make this my favorite out of the 3.The organs on this track is smokin !!
