After half a decade, Silhouette Brown - the original production and songwriting team of Bembe Segue, Kaidi Tatham and Dego - return with their sophomore album aptly titled, two. This time they are joined by Philadelphia’s Lady Alma and delve into an array of subject matters. In this digital DJ promo, "Constant Questions" ponders on the notion of truth, while "Leave A Note" touches on suicide. Demus of 2 Banks of Four strips down the original "Constant Questions," transforming it with a brooding, moody bassline. These tracks are mere treats of what can be expected on two, where Dego and Kaidi push a warm, sumptuous, melody-driven groove in a way that only they know how.

Singer and true multicultural woman, Somi records her third full-length If The Rains Come First, a stunning collection of self-penned story-based songs. Optimism, conviction and resilience are hallmarks of Somi’s new creations of survival and awareness. In this digital DJ promo, “Prayer To The Saint Of The Brokenhearted” reflects on the helplessness and hopelessness one often feels after heartache, while serving as a reminder of faith and renewal. Featuring the legendary Hugh Masekela on trumpet, “Enganjyani” (’most beloved’ in Rutooro, the language spoken by Somi’s Ugandan mother) refers to, “the memory of whispered prayer and being haunted by a past lover.” “Rising” is a song about faith and navigating life’s challenges, filled with a flawless juxtaposition of sizzling rhythm, instantly memorable melody and a vocal style that JazzTimes magazine describes as, “the earthy gutsiness of Nina Simone blended with the vocal beauty of Dianne Reeves.”

Modern folk guitarist, vocalist, and song-crafter John Shannon believes in the power of music to enlighten the mind. Starting with an exploratory meditation trip in the southwestern desert some years ago, John Shannon discovered his tender sound, rooted in nature and the earth, and translated it into his debut solo album, a subtle masterpiece called, American Mystic, out on Obliqsound. This digital DJ promo features the album’s first single "Somewhere" and includes two remixes by two-time Grammy winner Eric Kupper. Continuing Shannon’s musical voyage are three more choice selections from the album: "Forgiveness," "Golden Eagle," and "Among The Sea, Among The Star."

The long-awaited Stax Records debut, Pink Elephant, from stirring soul singer N’dambi is out this October. Produced by Leon Sylvers III (Shalamar, Blackstreet, Gladys Knight), the album’s lead single “Can’t Hardly Wait” is a biting chunk of scorching sarcasm, delivered in the commanding singer’s rich tone. Her opening complaint, “I don’t know why I keep f***in’ wit you,” perfectly expresses the inability to turn a listless love loose. She sings and performs her own drum beats on the irresistible “The World Is A Beat,” a percussive and pointed lament about the current state of the music business. This digital DJ promo is only a nibble of N’dambi’s Pink Elephant, a masterpiece that layers her molasses-drenched vocals into cushy multi-part harmonies.
