Distraction features vocalist Renee Neifville (formerly of the R&B duo Zhane), D’Angelo, and The RH Factor – his neo-soul/jazz fusion outfit which made it’s debut with 2003’s groundbreaking record, the internationall successful Hard Groove. The RH Factor consists of drummers Willie Jones and Jason "JT" Thomas, bass players Lenny Stalworth and Reggie Washington, guitarist Todd Parsnow, keyboard players Charlie McCambell, Bobby Sparks and Renee Neufville, and sax players Keith Anderson and David "Fathead" Newman.

On Nothing Serious, you’ll find Hargrove doing his straight jazz thing. For this album, The Roy Hargrove Quintet consists of Hargrove on trumpet, Ronnie Matthews on piano, Dwanyne Burno on bass, Willie Jones III on drums, and Justin Robinson on alto sax and flute.

Hargrove will continue to perform and tour with both groups following the dual release of Distractions and Nothing Serious.

DJ CARL COX TO RELEASE SECOND SIGN ON APRIL 4, 2006
KOCH Records has announced the release of Second Sign, the new DJ-mixed artist album by DJ Carl Cox, on April 4th, 2006. Second Sign contains 15 original Carl Cox tracks produced in conjunction with heavyweight electronic producers like Fatboy Slim aka Norman Cook, Josh Wink, Roni Size, Mistress Barbara and others. Cox has mixed up styles one would never think of putting together - house, soul, punk, techno and drum and bass.

Known as one of the best DJs in the world, Carl Cox has been part of Britain's dance scene from the heady days of disco through to the global clubland of the '90s, with temporary pit-stops covering hip hop, the rare-groove movement and the immense rave revolution of the late '80s.
Cox has plans to host his own stage at 2006's "Ultra Music Festival" in Miami, Florida, and will returns to DJ in Ibiza in the summer. Cox will also be performing at the Coachella festival on April 30th, 2006.
