Lady Harlem/The Other Side

A 2 track deep house ep (14m 17s) — released July 22nd 2013 on Loveslap Recordings

Galaxy Group continues its string of evocative, top quality house music releases on Loveslap! Recordings with "Lady Harlem," featuring the spoken vocal of the legendary Rich Medina. Galaxy Group, the collaborative project of DJs Charles Spencer and Antoine Green (Capitol A), originally formed from a chance meeting on San Francisco's Haight Street. The duo quickly made their mark with a remix for Capitol A's big tune "Serve It Up" on the Sonar Kollektiv label and haven't looked back. With releases like "Out Of Control," "Afrodiziak," and "Back2U" Galaxy Group have graced many DJ's sets with their trademark brand of deep house mixed with broken beat, hip hop, and jazz influences. On the latest, Philadelphia's famed wax-slinger Rich Medina joins Galaxy Group for the soulful "Lady Harlem," featuring an understated afro-house rhythm blanketing Rich's expressive story of the song's eponymous lead. Ringing electric pianos, a tuneful saxophone motif, and tasteful percussion embellishments combine to make "Lady Harlem" a definite late night treat. Galaxy Group's "Lady Harlem" is sure to thrill dance floors and die-hard 'house heads' alike with its warm, stirring production and Rich Medina's throught-provoking verse. Dig in deep with Galaxy Group, and stay close for more upcoming releases on Loveslap! Recordings. On the flipside we find" The Other Side" which includes the topical and sensual vocals of Atlanta-based actor and singer Rahmana Malaika who previously collaborated with the likes of Bugz In The Attic's Daz-I-Kue. Johnny Fiasco provides a pulsing remix anchored by skippy, house rhythms and building synth pads. Like much of Johnny's work, it deftly mixes old and new schools for a sound that's tailor-made for modern dance floors.
