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.

Feel the ‘Spirit’ on this soulful track produced by Gabriel Rene (of Aquanote and Soulstice fame) as this package is jam-packed full of remixes. Alongside the rare original by Gabriel himself, mixes come from Guy Robin (aka Jonas Blue), Doruk Ozlen, Ray Jones and John ‘Julius’ Knight. Guy Robin pulls out the stops on his mix with full orchestration, Ray Jones and John ‘Julius’ Knight rock the peaktime dance floor, while Doruk Ozlen keeps it soulful.
