RATIONALE SIGNS WITH WARNER CHAPPELL

Ahead of the release of his highly anticipated debut album (October 6th), Rationale (Tinashé Fazakerley) has signed a worldwide publishing agreement with Warner Chappell. In addition to writing and producing his own music, Rationale has also written cuts for Rag'n'Bone Man, Katy Perry and Nause in recent months. 

"I know a lot of writers and artists singed to Warner Chappell. If you ask any one of them, they'll tell you that their team is nothing short of brilliant. They work incredibly hard and there's a real family atmosphere that I love. So, when the opportunity arose to sign and work with Paul Smith again, it was a real no brainer for me!"

Listen to new single Loving Life HERE.

 

BILLON RELEASES 'ONE THAT I WANT'

Billon's latest release 'One That I Want' is out today on BMKLTSH Records. 

Starting off with a hypnotizing synth pattern, One That I Want is instantly captivating as it follows up with a dreamy vocal straight out of the soulful house era of the 90s. The vocal builds up to a grooving and jacking synth, accompanied by a stabbing drop that will fit both dancefloors and headphones alike.

Following plays from both Danny Howard and Target, awareness of the track continues to build, having been added to Spotify's New Music Friday, New Dance and Hot New Dance playlists today.
