Soulfuric is one of the most well-renowned labels in house music worldwide. Under the production guises Jazz-N-Groove and Urban Blues Project, 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 Hardsoul, John ‘Julius’ Knight, Urban Blues Project, 95 North, Afromento and Wayne Gardiner.

Brazilian DJ Meme presents a cover of the classic party-rocking anthem ‘Any Love’ by Rufus & Chaka Khan with soaring vocals delivered by Paris-based Australian singer Rachel Claudio. This stellar package of remixes ranges from deepest disco to the dopest house, from Jamie Lewis, Alfred Azzetto and DJ Spen’s Muthafunkaz through to Dimitri From Paris and the legendary mixer that is Tom Moulton. This interpretation of the Rufus & Chaka Khan classic is a lush slice of summer, replete with uplifting vocals, free-flowing flutes, soulful strings and sexy Latin percussion; a totally infectious groove.
