JOSH MILAN PRESENTS HONEYCOMB MUSIC VOLUME 1

Following up to the massive success of "Your Body," Josh Milan has written and produced a full length CD - Josh Milan Presents Honeycomb Music Volume 1 - that features songs with some of his favorite seasoned artists as well as fresh and new talent, including Sandra St. Victor, ChinahBlac, Crystal Johnson, Cinnamon Brown, Honey Sweet, and a few others have lent their talents to complete this project. Josh Milan is a former member of the legendary combo Blaze – a group that so perfectly brought a genuine depth of soulful songwriting integrity to the dancefloor scene from the mid 80s house era onward. Now Milan carries on that tradition with the debut of his Honeycomb Music project. Milan wrote and produced each track on the 2-CD package – with some great voices from the contemporary scene and names we're seeing for the first time. “The project is an attempt to put live instrumentation and overall soul back into house music” Milan says. “Live instrumentation and strong songs stand out here, just as they did for Blaze” Most tracks on the CD run between 5 & 7 minutes, and include songs by Angela Johnson, Crystal Johnson, T'Zelle, Lamone, Honey Sweet feat Cassio Ware, Chinahblac, Lamone, Sandra St. Victor and others. Titles include "Kipepeo" by T'Zelle, "Raul Rosario, We Miss You" by Honey Sweet, "Forever I Do" by Angela Johnson, "GOD" by Dawn Tallman, "Under The Moonlight" by Cinnamon Brown, "Who Am I" by Crystal Johnson, "Your Eyes" by Lamone, "Till You Go Home" by Chinahblac and more.


Milan, the record label's owner and creative force, has written and produced some of the most popular music in dance music history. After 20 years of writing, recording, and performing music as the former member of Blaze and for other artists such as Grammy award winning producer "Little Louie" Vega, dance music artist Barbara Tucker and producing giant Kenny "Dope" Gonzalez, Milan has finally launched his own record company, Honeycomb Music. In a short time, Honeycomb Music has quickly become a name synonymous with class and has even enjoyed its first taste of success when the single, "Your Body," went to #1 around the globe, fast becoming one of the hottest releases of the year. "There is a lot of live instrumentation that the industry has gotten away from. That's the main reason I'm starting Honeycomb Music. I wanted to be in full control of the music that comes out. Labels like to have a hand in your music. The industry has a way of dictating what some producers feel they should produce. I'm choosing to march to my own BEAT. After this project comes out, I will be finishing my solo project. I'm looking forward to an extremely creative year!"
