Ronnie Herel presents Neo Soul Sessions Vol. 1 [BBE Music]

Scheduled for release via BBE Music on October 9th, 2k20 is Ronnie Herel's very first compilation for the label in which the long standing DJ, radio presenter and industry professional whose career harks back into the 80s presents a selection of thirteen fusion cuts dubbed as and subsumed under the flag of what he defines as HipHop Soul. Think mostly boom-bap beats, a raw, slightly vintage-infused feel, killer samples and oldskool references catered by the likes of Omar featuring Leon Ware, Children Of Zeus, Moods feat. Damon Trueitt with their most swinging "Slow Down", Terri Walker feat. Floacist who deliver the most classic Soul / R'n'B cut on this compilation, production staple DJ Jazzy Jeff who is bringing on two dancefloor fillers with "For Da Love Of Da Game" and "My Soul Ain't For Same" alongside massive modernist surprises like Etta Bond's "Come Over" which is built upon a combination of beats in rewind and sparse, ethereal, highly futuristic synth tones alongside intense, emotional FutureSoul storytelling or Foreign Exchange's hyperchromatic "Shelter" which is a synth driven fest for those enjoying the polished production aesthetics of acts like Throwing Shade or Darq E Freaker and quite a few more high class acts to discover. One to enjoy with a loved one for a reason. Or two.
