With more releases on MN2S than you could shake a stick at, the two Dans clearly have it made as we showcase the very best of their MN2S musical catalogue – with The Best Of Danism

Roll back five years, and Dan Smith of Liquid People hooked up with Dan Newtone (a successful DnB producer) in the studio on one fine day. Taking inspiration from ‘Africanism’ and their own god-given names, they formed ‘Danism’ – and got stuck in to producing sultry deep & soulful house on MN2S.

They hooked up with a string of top vocalists including Monique Bingham, Hidiee Levo, Lisa Millet & Michael Watford, and achieved notable productions with Haze – fusing electro into their sound. Since then they have progressed with a run of remixes with the likes of Erick Morillo and some releases on nocturnal groove.

This compilation features each and every single & version they released between 2005 and 2009 including a host of remixes from the likes of Michael Gray, Nick Bridges, Conan Liquid, Groove Junkies, and many more.

Featuring the sultry vocals of Robert Owens, wildly regarded as THE voice of house music; DJ Spen takes the reins of MN2S’ next release with a surplus supply of new remixes of ‘Greater Love’.

With a DJing career span of more than 20 years complementing his infamous studio and production work, Spen has become one of the most sought-after artists in the U.S. Spen can be found jetting off to gigs at some of the biggest and best clubs around the world – Playing regularly in the UK as well as France, Italy, Japan, and Australia. One of Spen’s latest releases ‘The Way You Love Me’ has gained worldwide attention and is set to become a soulful house anthem.

Behold the next scorching release for you on MN2S – ‘Don’t Leave Me’, a slice of sunkissed house which sees vocal heartthrob Kathy Brown at the helm of yet another powerful production, and follows her previous successful production on MN2S in 2009 with The Layabouts – ‘Choices’.

South Carolina born Kathy began singing in her local gospel choir at an early age. Her first single ‘Can’t Play Around,” was released in 1993 and shot to number 13 on the US Billboard Dance Chart. She then scored huge success as part of musical collaboration Praxis, achieving a number one with ‘Turn Me Out’ – which has since been remixed and re-released a number of times. Brown then collaborated with David Morales in 1999 for ‘Joy’ – which leaped to number four in the Billboard Dance chart and is still one of her more recognizable tracks to date. But her biggest track to date which shot Kathy to her known fame today is surely Soul Central’s ‘Strings Of Life’ (Stronger On My Own), which was a top ten hit reaching number six in the UK singles chart alone, and a huge hit across Europe and the rest of the world. Kathy Brown has release a number of top records since, including more recently ‘Sound of the City’ In 2008, written by rising DJ/Producer Nick Tcherniak which peaked at number six on the UK Upfront Club Chart.

International DJ/Producer Ron Carroll provides the remixes for this production. Chicago born Carroll is both famed and respected on the global house music circuit, and has worked with many of the world’s most famous producers such as Bob Sinclar, E-Smoove, Maurice Joshua & Hardsoul. Ron’s latest track which appeared on the Nike advert has made him a true global superstar, and now sees him furthering his craft on his debut MN2S production.

“DJ Le Roi’s name is growing rapidly on the international dance music scene…”

DJ Le Roi’s ‘Can I Get’ sees a full release on MN2S with a plethora of mixes from the man himself.

Swiss born Le Roi has notched up an impressive string of remixes & productions on the MN2S label to date – more recently with ‘Shame’ (The Jinks ft Michelle Weeks), ‘Soul Meditation’ (DJ Le Roi & Roland Clark), and ‘Light Up My Life’ (Danism & Kathy Brown). DJ Le Roi’s name is growing rapidly on the international dance music scene, and sees a packed gig schedule throughout Europe.

Roll on a compilation celebrating the best South London collective to hit soulful house music – The Jinks.

Formed in 2007, The Jinks (Chris Gau & Dan Savidge) set about creating a distinct style of soulful house music that MN2S instantly recognized, and signed the duo immediately to the MN2S label. Since then the pair have produced and reworked a seemingly never-ending string of recognizable tracks such as ‘Like Music’, ‘Cecelia’, ‘Believe Me’, and more recently collaborating with Michelle Weeks for ‘Shame’.
With releases on MN2S spanning over 3 years, The Very Best Of The Jinks features their top MN2S productions, and showcases the boys notoriety and passion for the love of all things soulful.

During the last few years, Estonian newcomer Sofia Rubina has won countless vocal competitions worldwide. She performs a variety of different styles – jazz, classic, soul, jewish folk music, and now club music – leading to her release on MN2S ‘Make Me Beautiful’ – a slice of sunshine during a dreary winter!

Laiden with 10 juicy mixes to boot from Groove Assasins, Reelsoul, Dave Jones, & PDM; this track is already sitting at Number 1 on Traxsource as we speak!
