DJ Spen’s Quantize label welcomes back one of its favourite artists – Soulful Emma Louise aka S.E.L – who opens her 2022 account with the uptown funky Spen & Michele Chiavarini Remixes of her new single, ’Brand New’.
Produced by Michele Chiavarni and DJ Spen, ‘Brand New’ gets a rich disco-infused makeover
complete with a killer bassline, swinging percussion and rich musicianship which underpins S.E.L’s uplifting feel-good vocals.Firing things up to give it that extra dance floor swing, the funk flows across all the Remixes including the Extended Vocal Mix, and hard-hitting Sunny Daze Dub and Dubstrumental. Rounding off with a delicious Radio Edit, ‘Brand New’ reflects S.E.L’s authentic positivity as her voice soars to a heady crescendo that’s both deep n’ joyous.’Brand New’ originally appeared on S.E.L’s chart-topping 2021 debut album, ‘Loc’d In Consciousness’, which racked up plaudits from Tony Blackburn on Radio 1, to Ronnie Herel and Gordon Mac on Mi-Soul, Blues & Soul, Echoes and Jazz FM.
