Jacques Greene - Afterglow / You Can’t Deny [Vinyl]

LuckyMe are proud to present ‘Afterglow’ the brand new single from Jacques Greene alongside fan favorite and summer hit single ‘You Can’t Deny’Exclusive to vinyl, 12” features the extended versions of both ‘Afterglow’ and ‘You Can’t Deny’ It’s been two long years since we last heard new music from the Canadian artist and producer who helped revolutionize the palette of new dance music with his contemporary RnB influences. Now one of dance music’s most enigmatic young talents returns with the masterful ’Afterglow’ – an immediate, bright, soulful, techno record about the beauty of human connections - and this summer’s surprise club anthem ‘You Can’t Deny’. Born and raised in Montreal, now residing in Toronto via New York’s Lower East Side - Jacques Greene broke out of a generation of independent electronic labels like Uno, 3024, Night Slugs and LuckyMe as a genre-defining artist (via 2011’s ’Another Girl’ – one of Pitchfork’s Songs of the Decade) who laid the blueprint for countless young producers and DJs inspired by the intersection of contemporary music: Hip Hop, RnB, House & Techno. Greene’s music has a remarkable aptitude for expressing a range of broadcasts – bittersweet melancholia and pure euphoria. Drawn from micro inflections and palettes of gut wrenching-soul. Its brick-compressed Detroit-stabs serve to cut through club systems beneath intricate loops of electronics that interplay with disembodied, anthemic calls. With ‘Afterglow’ and ‘You Can’t Deny’, Jacques Greene declares himself back and renewed. Jacques Greene’s collaborations include Tinashe and How To Dress Well alongside deliberately limited remix work for Sampha, Shlohmo, Autre Ne Veut and Radiohead, to large scale installations at London’s Tate Modern.
