Seamless signed French artists 9 In Common in 2011 and released Abstract Reality, an album that was not just critically well received (strong support on Jazz FM UK, play listed and solid rotation of tracks from the album for 3 months) but sold well, staying in Beatport's (the world's biggest download store for electronic music) Chill Chart top 5 for 4 months. This year Seamless have release the follow up album 'Au Revoir Paris' which, musically, is as strong if not better, and has been dominating the Beatport charts once again. The title track from this release is Jealous, was relased on the original album Abstract Reality and was in the top 5 of the Beatport Chill chart for 6 months, so this was a clear track to remix and give a new lease of life and a different take. So for that we brought in the talents of DJ Cam. Then when mailing out the new album Au Revoir Paris, Action and Reaction appeared to be a very popular track and so for that we brought in one of our favourite producers, Jon Kennedy. Who has also remix the track Le Bonheur. To round of the package we have another version of Action and Reaction from 9 In Common themselves in the form of the 90's remix.

Paris born DJ Cam has been in the business for over 20 years. In 1995, he released his first full LP "Underground Vibes". The album was received to critical acclaimed worldwide. Cam's music is so original. Perhaps the best description of DJ Cam's innovative instrumental fusion on "Underground Vibes" would be "Abstract HIP HOP". After the success of his first LP he was approached by Sony, to whom Cam signed 5 LPs. "Substances" was released worldwide, and once again the LP was received to critical acclaim. The tracks on "Substances" were infused with a more melancholy feel than usual, featuring a variety of slick cool-jazz samples. Cam fused his smooth easy-listening jazz samples with the usual hip hop rhythms, but this time round the emphasis was definitely on mellow-music fans only have to take a listen to the soft , velvet vocals of the Indian singer Kakoli Sengupta on the track "Meera" to get a feel of Dj Cam's new style. The album sold over 300 000,and saw Cam touring worldwide headlining and also opening for huge acts such as Massive Attack. Since then DJ Cam has released a DJ Kicks album for K7 Records, and has been remixed by the likes of Kenny Dope, Thievery Corporation, Bob Sinclar and Kid Loco whilst remixing massive artists such as Miles Davis, Nas, Michael Jackson, Macy Gray, Cypress Hill and Jean-Michel Jarre. He has performed worldwide taking in Tours of the US, Japan whilst playing at festivals like the Montreux Jazz Festival, where he performed with his live band. His track "Summer In Paris" featuring Anggun was a worldwide hit, with over 1 million singles sold.
