Heroes of the Dancefloor are releasing Torch on November 24th. The project is a 'fusion of big band and swing Jazz, mixed with Hip Hop, R&B and dub influences with deep souldful vocals.' All profits from the release will go to two New York charities, ‘Picture the Homeless’ (www.picturethehomeless.org) and ‘Coalition for the Homeless’ (www.coalitionforthehomeless.org).
“Torch” lead vocals come from the playful and expressive chops of Mamazu; Gary Alesbrook, the trumpet player touring and recording with Kasabian and the Scissor Sisters; and James Morton, the sax player and keyboard player touring and recording with Pee Wee Ellis from the band of James Brown.
Mixes and remixes have come from top US DJs such as Nick Chacona and Anthony Mansfield as well as top US and UK engineers, including Adam Noble in the Strongroom, Joe Fields and Sam Dillon in Soho studios, Doug McBride in Gravity Studios in Chicago, Grammy Award winning Thom Russo in Los Angeles, and Grammy Award winning Mick Glossop in London.
