Their catalogue totals over one-hundred sixty published works, making it the largest catalogue produced by any single entity in the genre. As artist and businessmen, they have been involved in almost every facet of the music business. From producing to performing to managing to owning and promoting clubs to distributing music, not many can come close to the artistry and business of Blaze. The foundation for what they are now most respected is without questions - great spiritually in uplifting songs. Blaze have influences that range from Stevie Wonder to James Taylor to John Coltrane and beyond. But itâ„¢s the combination of deeply soulful melodies, their blend of Afro, Jazz, Soul and Gospel, and the positive world views in their lyrics that makes most people compare them to the legendary Earth, Wind & Fire. The Blaze sound caught the ear of then Motown Vice-president of A&R, Timmy Regisford, who immediately put them to work on numerous Motown projects. The Blaze sound was capturing the spirit of dancers in the clubs and the hearts of radio listeners in New York. With so many original productions receiving commercial success, the team was in high demand as remix producers. As remixers, Blaze have worked on projects for Diana Ross, Aretha Franklin, Macy Gray, Jamiroquai, Lisa Stansfield, Babyface, and countless others. Three albums have also been produced under the Blaze name; "Basic Blaze" on Slip-n-Slide, "Natural Blaze: The James Toney Jr. Project" on Life Line and Spiritually Speaking on Slip-n-Slide. Also, you will find many compilation albums that comprise some of Blazes' greatest hits, In 1995, Blaze scored their biggest writing success with a song called "Hideaway" performed by De'lacy. The song reached the top ten on the UK charts and was added to a vast array of compilations, racking up sales in the millions. Josh and Kevin also penned charts hits for Amira "Desire" and themselves with the #1 dance hit, "Breathe". This helped to maintain the duo to become one of the most sought after writing, production and remix teams in the business. Here is the definitive Blaze collection. A cherry picked selection of some of their finest original productions, remixes and work remixed. Straying away the obvious big hits and names, this is a collection for the heads, the fans, the purists. House music lovers whoâ„¢s passion is more on the soulful and spiritual side.
