2007 was a hugely successful year for Silky from SEMINALGROOVES. After the success of CUBAN BLUES on Soulfuric Deep (No.2 Hype Chart Record) Silky was invited to work closely with The Godfather of House, Frankie Knuckles himself to re-edit classic material for the Defmix WMC party, Frankie also asked him to remix one of his biggest tunes of 2007/8 (Marko Militano Good People) for release on his Chicago based label Noice!Music.
Remixes soon followed from the likes of Marshall Jefferson who asked SEMINALGROOVES to remix the house classics Taste My Love (Kym Mazelle) and Someday (Ce Ce Rogers) for re-release on his USB imprint. In addition to these, the SEMINALGROOVES touch can also be heard on the upcoming release for the talented Justin Michael Dont Hold Back (Hermosa Recordings) featuring the smooth vocal talents of Gina Rene.
