Sumsuch

A year after the release of the original version, Colour and Pitch revisits Sumsuch and Will Brock 's tender Deep House cut ' Humanity ', with remixes by Paul Losev and DJ Joma . Premiered in April 2022 on BBC Radio 1Xtra, Paul Losev's rework of 'Humanity' lifts the track into orchestral territory with cinematic sonic atmospherics and spine-tingling piano melodies. Formerly known as Paul2Paul, this is the insanely talented Miami resident Losev's first appearance on Colour and Pitch, and we're very excited to welcome him to the label family. Host of the brilliant 'Thru The Looking Glass' podcast, Belfast's DJ Joma regularly plays on Bloop London, Data Transmissions Radio, Ibiza Global Radio and Pure Ibiza Radio. His version of 'Humanity' beautifully exemplifies Joma's languid, sun-drenched production style, perfect for the terrace this summer. 'Humanity' is perhaps Sumsuch and Will Brock's most heartfelt and accomplis...

My new single 'Stay For Sunset', the 20th release on my Colour and Pitch label, is out now on all digital platforms. "Label founder Sumsuch returns to Colour and Pitch with the label's 50th release, a luscious, languid cut entitled 'Stay For Sunset'. Starting life as a fragment of melody ringing around the artist's head on the way home from the beach one summer's day, 'Stay For Sunset' is a deceptively simple composition built around a warm, inviting guitar line, live piano and analogue drums. Aside from being one of Sumsuch's favourite words, the 'Gloaming' mix nicely summons up that moment just before night falls, removing the lead guitar but leaving its ghostly imprint across the track, while pulling up the percussion to create a dusky, hypnotic groove."

Finding their own sound within electronic soul music, Will Brock & Sumsuch is a partnership of talented veterans from two distinct fields. Having previously released album ‘Ten Letters From Home‘ on BBE as Mega Jawns, this new collection sees them step out from behind that alias and establish a unit that both plays to their individual strengths and proves to be superior to the sum of its parts. Sharing songwriting duties between them, this album represents a radical departure from their studio based debut. Famed UK deep house producer and DJ Will Sumsuch wrote much of the music on guitar and brought a detailed ear to the arrangements. In a much more considered manner to their vivid and spontaneously recorded first, this album saw Will Brock studiously write and rewrite his lyrics and soulful vocal arrangements around Sumsuch’s acoustic jams. Each album shows two different sides to their catalysing partnership. But this second is more reflective of a deeper trust, understand...

Colour and Pitch founder and BBE recording artist Sumsuch returns to his own label with brand new solo EP 'Hand Me Down Demons'. Exploring the power held by ghosts from the past to damage or even destroy our relationships if we let them, 'Hand Me Down Demons' is split into three distinct movements. Originating as an improvised piano piece, 'We Should Talk' quickly evolved into a subtle, warm deep house instrumental, with analogue drums and bass providing a bed for plaintive, heartfelt melodies. Title track 'Hand Me Down Demons' has a grittier character, with a heavily tweaked acid bass-led groove and eerie vocal harmonies creating a dense, late-night club atmosphere. 'Slipping Under' closes the EP with simple classical piano composition set over swirling synth atmospheres and distant seagull cries, symbolizing that final, teary-eyed ending. Music-making at its most cathartic, we hope you enjoy this resonant journey from joy to melanch...

Issued on his own Colour and Pitch label, ‘Saint Elias’ is the latest release from UK producer, DJ and musician Sumsuch. Meditative and relaxed in nature, ‘Saint Elias’ was inspired by a handmade religious icon discovered in rural Cyprus, as depicted on the EP’s cover. Smooth chords and simple lyrics repeated like a mantra create an atmosphere of deep reflection over almost ten minutes, perfect for the terrace at sunset. Second original track ‘First Met You’ is a languid house workout featuring tight drums, warm pads, whispered vocals and a heavyweight analogue bass-line, constantly manipulated and filtered throughout to give visceral sense of movement. Completing the package, New York producer and 3Bridge Records artistic director Eric Shans takes ‘Saint Elias’ into nightclub territory, adding swirling chords and his own subtle vocals to create a powerful, cinematic remix.

I'm happy to announce that my first feature for Chicago's brilliant 5 Magazine has been published. “Get your mixes heard! Learn to produce your own tracks!! Boost your social media presence!! Start your own label!!!” Motivational blog posts (often from otherwise respectable sources) giving out tips on how to build your “career” in dance music seem to whirl around Facebook like tiny floating straws, grasped at by the drowning hopes of so many aspiring DJs. The digital age has provoked a kind of insanity in almost all of us. I’m as guilty as the next person, but lately I find myself constantly asking: “Why am I doing this?” Read the article HERE

After an insanely busy year, I've finally made it back into the studio with longtime friend and collaborator Matty Eeles. Our hilariously long-winded attempts to make an album continue, but in the meantime, enjoy! 'Colour and Pitch founder Sumsuch has had a busy year, with his ‘Mega Jawns’ project releasing their debut album on BBE Records last autumn. Finding some time to focus on solo material in 2015, he’s returned to the studio with long time friend and collaborator Matty Eeles, working (slowly) towards an album. ‘Find Home’ is a melodic, warm and languid slice of Deep House, with a typically stellar vocal performance from Matty Eeles. A ‘Voxtramental’ mix is also included, retaining an ethereal vocal refrain whilst bringing Sumsuch’s subtle musical touches into sharper focus.' Buy on Beatport iTunes Juno or Traxsource
