Valique: R.A.W. (Russians at Work)
(Freestyle Records)


Valique has been busy making music since the beginning of the 90's.

Ranging from ''live-performed heavy jungle'' to ''jazzed up ethnic soundtracks'', it is only within the last few years that he has gained the title of #1 Russian funk / soul producer - and for good reason!

The first 12'' ''Taking Your Seat'' received massive support from DJ's worldwide, and while his remix of ''Thirty Three'' by ''The New Mastersounds'' (from re:mixed'' on Record Kicks) joined the ''Best of Year'' list on Craig Charles' acclaimed BBC 6 Music Funk and Soul Show.

Following several digital releases and the second 12'' single ''(Let Go) Trouble Girl'', Valique presents R.A.W. (Russians At Work) - 11 dance-floor minded tracks, including vocal collaborations with Fanny Franklin of Ubiquity Records and Sofi Ocran.

Anything from horns to IskraDisco synths can be found on R.A.W, as Valique delivers a DJ-friendly view of modern disco-funk.


''Good 12'' from this guy. Like the vocal tune. A groovy 12'' in all!'' - Diesler
