New Music :: DJ Kemit - Everlasting

On July 31st a new and exciting release from Atlanta's own, Grammy-nominated DJ/Producer DJ Kemit, hits stores worldwide. Everlasting hits the mark for those looking for a soulful house excursion with a nice pinch of contemporary soul and cosmic/funk/jazz sprinkled in. It's been quite some time since we've heard a soulful house album that boasts a who's who of contemporary artists that we've come to know and love over the years. DJ Kemit does an excellent job bridging the gap between a range of artists and styles for this album. Kemit's ear for quality and talent is what helps make Everlasting this summer's most anticipated release. It has range but yet it's still very cohesive and dancefloor ready. If you've ever experienced Spread Love, one of DJ Kemit's monthly music/art/dance events in Atlanta, then you understand what I mean by dancefloor ready. Everlasting will burn up the dancefloor but is laid back and soulful enough for the lounge with something a little edgy added for your eclectic side and something groovy for your cosmic/funk/jazz side. Everlasting has been highly anticipated all summer and is here just in time to make your summer playlist! You can expect wonderful contributions from some of our favorites like Lady Alma, Carl McIntosh (Loose Ends), Osunlade, Choklate, Eric Roberson, Jean Baylor (Zhane), Mykel, Frank McComb, Terrance Downs, Kev Choice, N'Dambi, Craig Love and Sepesenahki.
