Monique Bingham and Black Coffee "Deep in the Bottom (of Africa)" OFFICIAL video


MONIQUE BINGHAM has been responsible for some of the most poignant house music of the past two decades.  And this tune with Black Coffee "Deep in the Bottom" does not disappoint.

This is Ms. Monique Bingham live that I shared here on this blog.

This is Monique Bingham's website.

This is an excerpt of her biography:
"Monique Bingham has been responsible for some of the most poignant, soulful jazz-infused house music of the past 20 years. Her career began with the acid jazz band Abstract Truth in 1995 at Francois K‘s legendary Axis studios. The first single, “Get Another Plan” received international critical acclaim and was picked up by Gilles Peterson for his UK imprint, “Talkin Loud” in ‘96. The follow up single, “We Had a Thing” penned and performed by Monique, is an indisputable soulful house classic due in large part to Matthias Matty Heilbronn’s infectious house remix.

I am amazed by Manou Gallo's musicianship and have chosen to investigate and provide more details of her musical journey here in In-Box Jewels:

Getting inspiration from my own .mp3 library.  This video of Manou Gallo can be found on her "Official" YouTube channel. I rediscovered Manou Gallo in my music library this morning. She is a percussionist, guitarist, dancer and vocalist and happens to be from the Ivory Coast. WOW!!! On the electric guitar at 3:50 is stunning. Rock on, Sister Gallo.

Random Soul - Could Be Down (Deeplomatik Remix)

"Published on Oct 26, 2015 Random Soul - Could Be Down (Deeplomatik Remix) https://pro.beatport.com/release/coul... Random Soul return with a carefully crafted EP, rich in all the trimmings required for any deep house connoisseur. The title track 'Could Be Down' rises from a looped vocal sample and kicks in with a driving 90's organ feel. A pulsing bassline drives this track from section to section as it continues to evolve and pick up energy. It's a peak-time house essential! Next up is 'This Heart Of Mine'. It is a slightly slower track with a more hypnotic and classic approach. Building sections of chords and melodic stabs help to bring the track gracefully to the soulful piano chords of the breakdown, which transport you to many club situations with hands in the air, waiting for the drop. On the remix for the title track is Polish groove aficionado, Deeplomatik. Best known for his records on Miguel Mig's Salted Music, Deeplomatik exercises his expertise in moody, melodic chords to bring his remix of 'Could Be Down' towards the light. A brilliant remix with his trademark smooth touch. This is an essential EP for any underground house lover."

 Credits Written, Produced and Mixed by Lawrence "Husky" Huskinson & Johann "Yogi" Willenberg aka Random Soul.
