Soulfuric is one of the most well-renowned labels in house music worldwide. As production duo Jazz-N-Groove and Urban Blues Project (UBP), Brian Tappert and Marc Pomeroy released records on classic labels including Sub-Urban, Strictly Rhythm and AM:PM, even cueing up the first ever release on Defected Records (and a UK chart no.8) with Soulsearcher’s 'Can’t Get Enough'. In 1996, the two founded their own label Soulfuric Recordings which eventually included sub-labels Soulfuric Deep and Soulfuric Trax. Soulfuric was and is one of the most important labels in the history of this genre we love, garnering a cult following and releasing classics from Axwell, John ‘Julius’ Knight, Shawn Christopher, Hardsoul, Melba Moore and Copyright.

Stephane Juif was a very prolific artist in the 2000s both as a solo act (DJ Fudge) and alongside Hedi Benromdan as Afromento. ‘Mechouga’, which was released in 2006 on Soulfuric Trax, features sophisticated layered instrumentation and an irresistible forward-moving beat. This package includes mixes from the one and only Spen & Karizma, who are at their best with intricate orchestral productions, a funky vocal and pumping bass. These are timeless essentials for any discerning classic house fan.
