Sabo‘s record label, Sol Selectas returns after topping the charts with their annual summer compilation with a stunning organic house release by Jo.Ke and Chambord. It also includes solo remixes from Landikhan and El Mundo, plus a collaborative rework by Chukku and Jo.Ke.
Chambord are a French duo who are no strangers to the Sol Selectas roster after featuring tracks on the label’s Summer Sol compilations and also remixing a track by Ayala (IT). They have a majestic style that fuses world music influences with deep synths and flowing percussion. Chambord’s music can also be found on other respected imprints such as Abracadabra Music, Kindisch, Earthly Delights and Akbal Music.
Jo.Ke is a talented vocalist and DJ who plays hybrid sets with live vocals layered over the tracks he mixes. When it comes to his vocal talents, he has added his voice to incredible music produced by the likes of Ulises and Viken Arman. Jo.Ke is best known for his top-selling collaboration with NU called “Who Loves The Sun”, as it’s had over 45 million plays on Spotify, and 120 Million views on YouTube.
Chukku is a German producer living in Bali who has an organic style influenced by Afro rhythms. He is an emerging talent who runs his own record label, Souta. Chukku has teamed up with Jo.Ke to provide an alternative version of the vocalist’s original track.
El Mundo is a Dutch artist who for over a decade has been releasing his deep and melodic style on labels ranging from Crosstown Rebels to Get Physical. He is also a regular collaborator who has worked regularly with the likes of Satori and Zazou, but this remix showcases his exceptional solo skills.
Landikhan is a Spanish artist making his Sol Selectas debut with a mystifying remix in the trippy style of organic house that he has released via his own imprint LNDKHN, plus other respected record labels such as Café Del Mar, Stil Vor Talent and The Magic Movement.
“Quiet Times” is the solo original on this release, and it’s a soothing track that combines atmospheric synths and Jo.Ke’s emotive vocals with poignant piano chords and upbeat percussion. Its mid-tempo groove is underpinned by a melodic bassline, and delicate oud chords played by Issa Murad add to its overall spender.
Chukku and Jo.Ke’s ‘Rearrange Remix’ of Quiet Times is an Afro house version with dramatic percussion. El Mundo’s rework of Quiet Times works in additional percussion and his own piano melody to create an emotional version with Balearic vibes. Landikhan’s remix of Quiet Times focuses on the synths to create a melodic version with added atmosphere.
The cover art by Helia Jamali captures the essence of these “Quiet Times”, a stairway into the calm solitude of a magnificent sunset.
