The jewels of DJ Kwe

.

	Hello, all you great and wonderful listeners, DJ's, producers and house enthusiasts. It's been a while since I last posted because I too have been working on some soulful House music of my own to keep the vibe alive and striving. I'm glad to see lots of you were able to download my mix for Deeper Soul Sessions as it was my honour to add to the talented roster of big names that already exist. Thanks to everyone who was able to use my voice for thier tracks and mixes. If I can make your song or mix unique by giving it that personal touch then don't be afraid to say HI and tell me what makes you special in music.

.

Lastly, special sweet shoutouts to Rogério, he has made one of the best networks in the world to keep soulful house alive and positive. I love that your site expands with new people and new ideas everyday. Keep up the good work! Chi Meegwetch

But this review isn't about me, in fact, it's about similar passionate people who work everyday full time to keep our generation of heartfelt house music lovers satisfied and wanting more. It's my pleasure and delight to introduce you to a Record Label that has top notch productions and harmonic melodies that would make any man and woman dance in the shadow of the moon.

"I'm LOVEN these Records"

Welcome to Loven Records and please take full advantage of their commitment to bring you quality music. I hope to introduce Loven Records to all of you through reviews and sweet sounds of their soulful funky house music so you get the latest and greatest hits of these "must have" productions. I'm going to submit reviews on the tracks that catch my eye so that you can have first dibs on the gooooods!

1. Ian Crabtree feat. Denise Gordon - Open Your Eyes (Loven Records)

.
If you're looking for a perfect ending track to a soulful mix then I've found the right ending to your already, awesome, mix. Imagine those sunny days for patio parties in the summer when we save the right sexy track to drop for a beautiful dancing day. "Open Your Eyes" not only gives you a quality arrangement of instruments to give you the "Big Band" feel but it also pays attention to the lyrics of sensability in a sensual world. The very talented vocalist actually sings like she believes what she's saying which is perfect for that soulful party filled with sexy funky people. The production has great fidelity and is bright enough to fill a big room. Hey, don't forget that any track that allows the sax to shine through get's big points from me anyways. Did you even need to ask me twice? lol [sample]

2. Lelani - And Another Day (Loven Records)

.
On to the next track that would be perfect for all your floorfilling needs. Whether you're in Canada or Portugal you can't miss out on this super groovey, liquid funky, delight that would have any girl dancing in her heels. I particularly loved the levels of the vocals and background melodies as they really were the most engaging elements to this track. But wait, what's that you ask? Was there any sax or horn elements? OF COURSE! Not only do they sexify the track with sax but they make it, deep, down, soulful jazzy goodness. Not too mention it's totally DJ friendly and would compliment any track that followed. [sample]

3. Lelani - And Another Day (Robert Hayes Remix) (Loven Records)

.
Let me start off by saying that all DEEP house lovers should buy this track right away as it totally merges vocals and deepness into one abSOULute solid track. This would be an amazing track to mix into the original "And Another Day" and go back and forth on both records because the vocals and overlaying sounds compliment each other perfectly. The house pattern is totally DJ friendly and actually makes mixing this record so easy because the arrangement really does it for you. Like all really properly sequenced tracks, they make their patterns so that we can be creative as DJ's. For example, you could take any sax riffs in this track and overlay it over any deep house beat (better make it a good one) and it would move dancefloors like oceans move waves. Try it, I guarantee you that this track is not only going to be a classic in my rotation but I'll also use it as a DJ tool when mixing to a soulful funky crowd. By the way, don't forget to praise the subtle use of congas in this track because we all need some tribal in our sets. Look out for Robert Hayes in more upcoming house tracks as I think he's going to engulf me in every musical way. [sample]

Thanks for your time and I wish you the best that house music can offer. DJ KWE, Crystaaal.
