Jungle

"Keep Moving (Gaspard Augé and Victor Le Masne Remix)"
 DISCO   SOUL   DANCE 

“An exuberant, nostalgic mash of falsetto funk harmonies, disco grooves and eccentric electropop textures”
– The New York Times

Mercury Prize-nominated duo Jungle returns in collaboration with French electronic powerhouse Gaspard Augé and co-creator of Housse de Racket, Victor le Manse to remix their runaway single “Keep Moving”. The duo has delivered dynamic disco decadence for the post-social distancing age, with this life-affirming, dancefloor-igniting, sun-kissed celebration of all the things that make music irresistibly fun. Through the string of singles and videos released in lead up to the new album, Loving In Stereo, Jungle proves once again why their track record boasts two top 10 albums and over 1 billion streams.  It’s not just about the accolades though- the huge sing-a-long hooks and enormous synths, which continue to satiate fans and critics alike, are a visceral reminder to revel in the here and now. It’s crystal clear to us that Jungle knows how to give listeners the long hit of pure euphoria we all so desperately need.

Kyle Dion

Sassy
 R&B   CONFIDENT   CAREFREE 

“There is no denying that Kyle Dion has soul. It is done in a way that is effortlessly cool and flows as if it is second nature … It is soul from a brand new visionary” – Line Of Best Fit

Kyle Dion is stepping up in 2021 to unveil his audacious third album, Sassy. True to its name, the new album sheds Kyle’s melancholy style in favor of more bright and buoyant tunes with intentional mood shifts that prove the rising star can be tough, humorous, and vulnerable in the span of just one bar. In 2019 Kyle released his second album SUGA, a heartfelt traditional ode to R&B which received critical acclaim from Fader, Hypebeast, Flaunt Magazine, and more, and was accompanied by a sold-out US & UK tour.  Now, with 90M career streams under his belt, the Florida native is ready to expand his talents by creating a classic turn-up album that showcases his playfully confident personality, natural sensuality, and talented collaborators with features like Ja Rule, Duckwrth, and Channel Tres. A boisterous rising star with a bright falsetto and golden pen, Kyle Dion is undoubtedly one of the industry’s brightest upcoming stars.
