	“Brass-driven funk’n’soul for hip-hop heads and jazzers alike” – via The Guardian Brasstracks was initially a side project allowing them to use their instruments to produce electronic music they were passionate about, a cover of Rihanna’s “Four Five Seconds” with Lido cemented them on the SoundCloud producer scene. Since their early beginnings, they have dropped an array of critically acclaimed covers and remixes, toured with Lido, Nao, Mr Carmack, Jack Garratt and GRiZ, played iconic venues and festivals such as Denver’s Red Rocks and Coachella and featured/produced on songs with GoldLink, Anderson Paak, Lido and Khalid.
	“A 28-year-old West Coast native whose melodies sound like they’ve been steeped in the ashes of Studio 54 since its closure, Turek produces songs that’d fit right in at roller discos on the outskirts of Coney Island (the non-ironic kind). If that’s enough of a selling point, try this: She possesses the silky, arms-outstretched harmonizing of an in-her-prime Donna Summer.” - via SPIN Gavin Turek’s silky smooth vocals, matched with catchy pop-disco rhythms, and energetic on-stage performance make her a must-see artist.

	“The Los Angeles songwriter’s debut single “Cry For Another” felt like a time capsule to the heyday of ’70s reggae, honing in with such impressive detail that the references to Jamaican music were transcendent.” – via PitchforkInspired by the reggae, bossa nova, and Brazilian tropicalia collections she stumbled upon at a London record store, Claude Fontaine’s sound is a love letter to classic reggae and Brazilian music. Her artfully reverent interpretation of the songs that inspire her put the perfect spin on the reggae sounds we love.
