Preview action for the forward-thinking nightlife composers, avid fans, and just about anyone who appreciates good house music. Diving deeper into the abyss of funky house, Joey Negro aka Akabu contributes another gem to his seemingly endless list of successful projects to dance music. Deetron and Lovebirds provide support, and all three mixes are worthy of attention.

Akabu – Life Is So Strange (Deetron, Lovebirds and Joey Negro Mixes) Next Single by Joey Negro

Prolific DJ and producer Dave Lee (aka Joey Negro) has unveiled details for his next full-length, entitled ‘The Phuture Ain’t What It Used to Be’.

Lee has released his fair share of albums over the past two decades, most famously as Joey Negro and The Sunburst Band, but The Phuture… will be his first as Akabu, a guise he’s used off and on since 2000. According to Lee, the new LP shows him moving away from the organic and live sounds of his other monikers for something a bit more, well, futuristic. “After a year producing disco I wanted to do something more electronic and utilize some of the great modern studio technology that’s out there,” he says. “I’ve still tried to attempt to inject some of the excitement of live players and musicality into the electronic music I produce.”
