the words of lyon based artist and new robsoul jazz signing lb aka labat, a producer on the rise and a young man who’s already caught the ear of mcde. with a devotion to jazz and hip-hop it s no surprise that both genres heavily influence his own work, but house music? well, that’s more a means to an end. “first and foremost i love to dj. i’ve discovered how much i love that feeling of sharing my music and whats the point of a live show if it doesn’t make your hips shake? thats why i produce house music.”2014 was the breakthrough year, when his track ‘more kindyness’ was included on the ‘le sampler des copains’ vinyl release on face records. since then his soulful, groove-heavy productions have impressed and lead to the current 2016 pinnacle of ‘disques solaires’, his debut album release on groovedge records. a new chapter now opens with his debut robsoul release. an impressive five track selection that sashays through styles and sound to present a perfect picture of lb aka labat. house, soul and hip-hop feed our soundtrack, powered by a sublime sample selection. swing ghetto vol.1 … enjoy!
