As the title states as clear as day, this new album is a celebration of latin and soul music as perceived and elaborated by various West Indian, British, Italian and other international artists immersed today in the London jazz scene. Urban Latin Soul is a deep breath of fresh air and it brings a significant evolution to its predecessor "Urban Sessions" by adding reggaeton & salsa to the equation, exploring the new territories of caribbean music and daring to fit funk and trip hop into the scenario... + Two bonus remixes of "Amuyada" from French/Brazilian DJ Mustafa' and south London breakbeat whiz LouiSubsole. Now you can start dancing.

Featuring some of the most amazing musicians in the world, Urban Sessions is a rhythmically diverse, experimental collection of tracks often referred to as “Nu-Jazz”. Sunlightsquare’s creative dissection of amazingly performed acoustic drum tracks from the master of groove, STEVE GADD, shapes a deep pocket around a solar variety of funk, latin, and deconstructed drum ’n’ bass. With vocalists Sharlene Hector (Gorillaz, Basement Jaxx), Joy Malcolm (Moby, Incognito) and Zee Star (Slow Train) the sound grows soulful, while mixing the urgent beat of East London into a fine piece of contemporary european jazz.

| Trumpeter Quentin Collins, one of London’s most in-demand young jazz talents, released his first debut album "If Not Now, Then When?" featuring his quartet of Jim Hart (vibes), Michael Janisch (bass) and Alyn Cosker (drums). Guesting on the record is alto saxman Tony Kofi, who adds his voice to the two non-Collins compositions, Thelonious Monks’s “Four In One” and John Coltrane’s “26-2”.Whilst contemporary in its vision, is the undoubted sound of a young musician establishing his own voice while acknowledging his inspiration and debt to the past.
