Taken from the upcoming album, Halfway Between Me And You, Induce’s new single "Pretty" b/w "Get Down Saturday Night" has already become a favorite of fans and friends alike. Completely produced & written by Induce, "Pretty" is an uptempo Boogie jam that sounds like the song Prince never made. "Get Down Saturday Night," produced by longtime friend and collaborator, Manuvers, is a cover of the underground Disco classic originally performed by Oliver Cheatham and more recently popularized by the hands of Daft Punk. This digital DJ promo also includes a cover version by Ketchy Shuby, remixes by Deviant and Renzo, plus instrumentals and acappellas.

Before his untimely death last year, Wayman Tisdale was ready to show the world a completely different side, one that was 12 years in making. With a not-so-hidden love of funk music, The Fonk Record featuring Tiz & The Fonkie Planetarians was a true passion project for Wayman. This digital DJ promo features five of the album’s eleven all-original songs, including “Let’s Ride,” a collaboration featuring George Duke, who wields his magic dukey stick on some hard-charging synthesizer solos, while Tisdale channels his best Larry Blackmon of Cameo, and “This Fonk Is 4U” with the unmistakable vocals of George Clinton.

In anticipation of their upcoming debut album to be released later this year on Sustainable Recordings, Agape featuring Nadia Harris unveils EP1. The four tracks are open, soulful and diverse with an element of dub that ties it all together. “She Really Likes It” (watch the video) has echos of funk, soul, ska, drum & bass and Brazilian rhythms, which come together to create a mood that is fun and uptempo. “I And I” is a soulful broken beat track that is acoustic as well as electronic, and “If Love” is a Reggae/Dub song with a one love message. In addition to producer/DJ Erick Paredes and Jamaican singer/songwriter Nadia Harris, the EP features an all-star cast of musicians that make up the live band.
