HIS RECENT REMIX OF YAM WHO’S "HERE WE GO" SINGLE HAS RECEIVED PROPS FROM ENNIO STYLES, GILLES PETERSON AND BENJI B AMONGST OTHERS.. THIS, HIS FIRST SOLO OUTING, IS A MERE TASTE OF WHATS TO COME FROM WHAT WE BELIEVE TO BE ONE OF THE MOST REFRESHING ELECTRONIC / SOUL / DANCE MUSIC ALBUMS FOR A VERY LONG TIME.

PELLE MOELD, P3 LAB (GOIN FOR A RIDE) ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------- Sometimes it so happens that people like to listen and dance to the music I make. And if people find meaning and value in it like I have done, not many things could make me happier. The record label describes the sound as part electric boogie, part Sa-Ra fidget funk and a whole lotta Soul. I like to call it ..synthetic organics... Some of the stuff I sing myself and sometimes I work with other vocalists. My debut album features Braintax, Paul Mac Innes, Hanna Olsson and Björn Almgren. ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------RELEASED: "HERE WE GO" 12" YAM WHO?
