D-Malice – Phases OUT NOW!…

After spending his career popping up the hottest spots you can find in club-land, in-between running his own label DM Recordings and producing quality vibes with such talents as Kid Fonque, Jonny Miller and Rancido, please join us in welcoming back our good friend and collaborator – D-Malice.  Taking time out of his hectic schedule, and following up the release of the “All This Time” & “All This Time Remixes” with Kid Fonque, D-Malice has brought his skills to the fore again with solo ARCo debut offering: ‘Phases’.

We start with ‘#87’ and the mood is set instantly.  Kicking off with straight up beats and low melodic tones that evoke the feelings and groove of the legendary Lil’ Louis at his finest, this pumping masterpiece reaches through your body and into your hips, daring you not to dance.  We can promise you won’t be able to resist moving to this!

Then D-Malice introduces his trademark low bass and deep afro-beats and steps up to the podium with ‘Phases’.  Taking all things musical to a more interesting pitch, with a soothing and smoothing soundscape that runs up and down your spine, D-Malice peppers an insistent and effortless melody over a thoroughly enjoyable dance-floor goto.

We then return to ‘Phases’ with a remix that is ‘Expressive’ in more than just name.  Stepping up another gear, we are welcomed to a realm of low range tones and light percussive touches that brings D-Malice’s musical odyssey to new heights and leaves us begging for more, as he usually does with his ever popular ‘Expressive Dubs’.

A few words from Atjazz “I have always been intrigued by the sounds of D-Malice, I’ve also seen him perform on a few occasions, and I have to put it out there that he is one of the best afro-house DJs I’ve seen play live. No tricks, just honest hard work, and you can hear it in his music, he cares and that is the first block in his wall of sound, which is standing very strong. Phases had to come out via ARCo., it really suits us down the ground, Techy in parts, afro of course & just very well crafted dance-music.”

All This Time (Remixes) are rather HOT!

You may remember a certain smash that dropped last year.  The deep melodic bass, coupled with a smooth, ethereal vocal that tickled your spine and got your head bobbing.  Kid Fonque & D-Malice showed a touch of class with last year’s release with Clara Hill:  All This Time.  Now we revisit this epic soundscape with a remix offering that will take the Atjazz Record Company into 2016 with a bang!

First up steps the boss, Martin Atjazz, with a smooth effort that carries all the hallmarks of his usual deep and moving mastery of his craft.  Building a world of sweeping notes and offbeat melodies around Clara Hill’s understated vocal, Atjazz sets us off in style.

Bringing a decidedly percussive feel to proceedings next is Boddhi Satva, whose driving beats and trademark Ancestral Soul vibe take us in a new direction.

Then finally arrives South African prodigy, Bruce Loko.  Loko is known for adding in unusual elements to his music and this is no different.  A rhythmic harp accompanies some otherworldy effects and popping string pulls to round off a sublime and intangible remix collection.

Q7. Loving?

Life….oh and curry!

And let’s watch him in action @ YOMO

All This Time… Yes, we’ve waited long enough and It’s now here!

Welcome to some thought-provoking music from this new duo. Yes, Kid Fonque & D-Malice have joined forces and are preparing their first album together.

This first offering features two names that need no introduction: Berlin’s Clara Hill & “The Man With Ten Arms” Mark de Clive-Lowe, both of whom bring a lot of weight to these two inspiringly original pieces of work. Clara features on the sultry “All This Time” where Kid & D utilise samples and touches of afro-beats to make a sound that is definitely different. Clara’s voice is impeccable as per usual and works beautifully over this carefully produced piece.

Flip the coin please as Mark de Clive-Lowe is in the building! Fonque & Malice step up to the broken beat bar and acquire the energy of one of the hardest workingmen in the biz. MdCL is one of a kind and everything he touches is suddenly filled with a wonderful energy.

These two initial songs are a first taste of what will be surely an incredible album that defies the genre and gives you something new!

D-Malice drums out new remixes for “Be”

The awesome ‘Be’ has been reworked by one of the UK’s pioneers of what is widely known as ‘Afro House’. D-Malice is responsible for many beat laden hip shakin’ house beats and brings to the label some of his best work to date. Along side the infectious vocals of Zaki Ibrahim these remixes are set to be a favourite for all DJs dropping Deep House through to the most stripped down minimal 4/4 dance-floor fillers.

“Very clever work by a jolly nice gentleman” – Atjazz

We’ would like to give you a little more info on D-Malice as this guy is an exceptional talent and ambassador of the ever evolving world of dance music. Indian at his roots this man has also mastered the art of many other world music elements with African, Afro Cuban and Latin percussion programming  backing up his strong centred deep and soulful sound.

UK based DJ/Producer ‘Raj’ began spinning records from the tender age of 13, heavily influenced by ‘Old School Garage’ but not restricted to one genre, he has also dabbled in Reggae, Hip Hop, R&B, Soul, Motown and many other genres of the world and landing firmly on his feet finding his passion for House Music.

All eyes are on this talented artist.
