Release Notes:
Due to the overwhelming popularity of their nights and the
cream of DJ¬s that spun there. Need2Soul have subsequently
added another string to their bow by developing a record label
of the same name, material sprung from the vast amount of
unreleased tunes their guests played.
Their first album release ¬Need2Soul¬ V.01¬ was lovingly
compiled by house dons Ron Trent and Jerome Sydenham earlier
this year.
However, for this release, things take a slightly more
eclectic turn as BBC 1Xtra¬s Benji B compiles CD 1 where he
selects timeless underground soul, disco, African and techno
sounds. Gems reflecting his superb taste in music that has
become synonymous with his weekly radio show and outstanding
club sets. On the flip Chicago DJ Glenn Underground takes the
groove to a different zone with his signature style of soulful
/ jazzy and deep house.
Benji B was immersed in music from birth playing the Sax
religiously and teaching the art of the Gamelan at London¬s
Southbank Centre. By the age of 16 he collaborated with Gilles
Peterson on their live radio show ¬Worldwide¬ on Kiss FM. The
show later went national when it moved home to BBC Radio 1
where he became producer for 2 years syndicating the show
around the world. ¬Worldwide¬ won a Gold Sony Award in 1999.
When the BBC launched 1Xtra in 2002 Benji was asked to present
his own show ¬Deviation¬, which is broadcast every Thursday
from midnight until 2am. His radio shows and DJ sets blend
tunes from various genres of underground soul music, spanning
broken beats, hip hop, house, UK Garage, jazz, soul and
Detroit techno.
Glenn Underground is the founding member of the Strictly Jaz
Unit. He was raised on disco classics and freeform jazz in
Chicago's Southside, the place where house music was born.
Taking inspiration from Chicago's original pioneers, Larry
Heard, Ron Hardy & Lil¬ Louie, Glenn Underground aka GU, CVO,
amongst many others, has to be the most proficient and lasting
producer of underground house music in Chicago. Portraying an
expansive dance catalogue and ranging from absolute jazz to
deeper electronic sounds and everything in-between. His sets
seamlessly walk the line between deep/jazz/tech house, and the
sublime sounds that came from the legendary parties of late
70's Chicago.
One of dance music¬s must unrewarded artists, who we hear,
produces all his music after midnight!
