New release from Glenn Underground *posted 09.09.07
On this fifth quality House Music release, Need2Soul Music solicits the highly talented skills of Chicago's very own Glenn Underground. With decades of experience and a slew of releases under his belt (Cajual, Shelter, Peacefrog, Guidance, Vega, Large, Kenlou, Gotsoul, etc.) one could only predict nothing less than excellence from this Windy City veteran. As expected, GU delivers quality in every sense of the word. This three-track instrumental project features the slick, cutting-edge grooves of “Jive Assing” (main mix + dub), as well as a gorgeous musical painting in the form of “Manzana De Mi Vida”.

Movin' On * posted 12.03.07
Following the great success of Ron Trent’s remix of “Sunshine” by Roland Clark, Need2Soul have paired him up with another huge house music vocalist, this time Robert Owens. The result of this studio collaboration is “Movin’ On”, a rich percussive track, with a deep bubbling bass, overlaid with dramatic Nu-Jersey Keys and Robert’s intensely soulful vocals. Aready on its second pressing its tipped to be THE song of 2007.
Road Block! Ron Trent / Robert Owens /
Mr V / Alix Alvarez at The Key * posted 14.02.07
Wow, thanks to all of you that made it down, it might of been a very wet and wild night but that didn't deter the biggest crowd ever descending on the Key. Ron Trent played one of his best sets yet, deep and mystical as always, whilst upstairs V and Alix had the whole room jumping (literally), highlight must be everyone singing along to “We had a thing” by Abstract Truth, definitely one of those moments. We're back at The Key April 14th...put it in your diary.
