Sean McCabe’s Good Vibrations Music opens the vault for a peek inside some of its closely guarded and much-loved releases courtesy of this limited edition 12 inch. Featuring four new to vinyl releases and including a whole host of luminaries from across the soulful spectrum, this is sure to be a be a hot fave with long standing lovers of the label. Glenn Underground’s jazz-funk fueled rework of 'This Place' kicks off and needs no introduction. Heavily supported and much loved throughout soulful circles and beyond with Louie Vega, Dave Lee, Jimpster, Jamie 3:26 and Fred Everything all loudly banging the drum, people have been clamoring for this to be on vinyl and the label listened. Up next is 'Modulate', a collaborative force of the highest order between Sean and long-time friend Black Sonix. Blurring the lines through deep, soulful, and house is somewhat of a specialty for the duo and there’s bags of all three flavours throughout alongside a hefty sprinkling of sun-kissed, Latino-inspired pianos. On the B is 'Still Standing Here' that began in March ‘22 when vocalist Madeeha recorded an acapella in a phone message, quietly singing to avoid waking the neighbours. She sent the idea to drum & bass producer from Bristol, DJ Mixjah, who then approached Sean McCabe with the idea. Together they produced a hypnotic, afro-tinged, soulful backing track to fit the voice note, with an intention to re-record it in a studio environment. Sean and Mixjah soon realized what they had created blended perfectly with the sincerity, intimacy and rawness of Madeeha's heartfelt performance in the original and decided to stick with it. A firm fave for Atjazz, Crackazat , DJ Spen and Emmaculate. Closing out with 'You Don’t Know', a slick and energetic dancefloor bubbler from London based David Bailey and Canadian songstress MissFly. Bailey is a firm favourite amongst the London house music community, he’s produced standout releases on Idris Elba's 7wallace, Makin Moves, Good Vibrations Music, Rhemi Music and Unquantize. MissFly is known for her soulful serenades and ability to write songs 'on the fly'. She has carved out an impressive discography with soulful house nuggets like '1972,' 'Wanna Love You' and 'Thankful'.
