Mike Fossati
"Fade away" by South Africa's Velvet Suite Lounge (Neo Soulsta & Paul Solaris) is a wonderful laid back production on an enchanting Afro-latin tip, taken to all new heights by Vick Lavender who adds his beloved vintage soul/jazz/funk infused sound - the result is a masterly orchestrated timeless gem that will stand the test of time and become an all-time classic in the years to come. The mixes to be released in the next few weeks are all about the music and use only parts of the vocals, the full vocal version is scheduled for later in the year, likely to be available on vinyl first.
