CD Version (with extra tracks)

Turn On The Sunlight is the long-running project of Texas-born, Maui-based musician and producer Jesse Peterson.

Originally formed in New York in the late 2000s, Turn On The Sunlight has evolved into a fluid, location-spanning practice rooted in collaboration, intuition and process. Now based on Maui, Peterson’s work draws together a wide network of musicians and environments, with recordings taking shape across Los Angeles, Tokyo, London, San Miguel de Allende and Ha?iku.

Loosely situated within a framework of organic, ambient-leaning jazz, 'Iseo' unfolds as a series of open, exploratory pieces, with electronics sitting subtly beneath acoustic and environmental elements. Built from layered instrumentation including synthesizers, guitar, zither, flutes, voice and field recordings, Peterson moves between grounded, tactile detail and more expansive, immersive states. A sense of warmth and permeability runs throughout: organic percussion, environmental textures and drifting rhythmic elements lend the record a gently saturated humidity, reflecting Peterson’s base in Hawaii, where the presence of nature is felt as much as it is heard.

Underlying the project is a way of working rooted in gathering, listening and tending. Instruments, ensemble sessions, field recordings and everyday environments are approached with attentiveness, shaped through collecting, refining and allowing things to settle. Relationships, landscape and lived experience shape the sound, giving 'Iseo' a tactile, almost hand-made quality.

Rather than fixed arrangements, the album feels as if it has been organically and lovingly assembled through a process of listening and response, each element finding its place within a wider, evolving whole. This approach reaches a natural centre point in the 15-minute piece 'Medianoche En La Calle Aurora', which unfolds patiently, bending through shifting environments as motifs and textures emerge and dissolve with quiet continuity.

Peterson’s role as both instigator and facilitator is central to the project. Bringing together a diverse group of collaborators including Carlos Niño, Mia Doi Todd, Laraaji, Ko Ishikawa, Luis Pérez Ixoneztli and Miles Spilsbury, he creates space for individual voices to emerge within a shared language. The result is a music defined by openness and generosity.

'Iseo' takes its title from Peterson’s son’s middle name, a word that can be understood to mean ‘one-world life’. The piece itself takes the form of a gentle lullaby, its melody loosely shaped around the syllables of his name and sung to Peterson’s son by Luis Pérez Ixoneztli, a close collaborator whose presence across the record reflects a long-standing relationship that extends beyond the music itself.

Few producers embody the soulful heart of House Music quite like Move D. Being a
mentor of the label since day one, All That Jelly brings together two defining and desirable
cuts from David Moufang’s recent history to one record.
'To The Disco ’77' 2013 original version for the A-side and the 2017 live rework finds its
way to the B-side, both freshly remastered by the amazing and sought after Andreas
Kauffelt. 'To The Disco ’77', opens with a clean, electro-styled beat that has a restrained
power and a controlled tension that gradually blooms as the keys start to lift the mood into
something lighter. When the iconic 'to the disco' vocal sample cuts through, it’s like a wink
from the past, threading disco’s golden exuberance through the disciplined swing of
classic house. The track is a seamless blend of Funk, Disco, House and Electro with each
element raw yet playful, woven into a groove that never stops urging you forward. It’s a
masterclass in balance: sleek but deeply human, nostalgic but alive in the moment. It's like
listening to the history of dance music in one special track.
'To The Disco ’77 (Move D Live Rework)' stretches the idea out into something even more
fluid. The groove loosens, the funk rises to the surface and the extended runtime gives
space for guitar and bass lines to share center stage, riffing around each other with
organic warmth. The 'to the disco' mantra remains, grounding the track in its celebratory
intent. It’s the kind of tune that closes a night perfectly and makes you not want to leave
the dancefloor. Reissued together, these versions show Move D’s masterful ability to
bridge eras and genres, reminding listeners that the dancefloor is as much about emotion
as it is about motion.

As a follow-up to his most recent release on Fatsouls, we are pleased to present Trinidadian Deep’s – Deep Rooted Isle. As you could anticipate from him, the project is a fantastic collection of three excellent stand-alone pieces. With mesmerizing keys, dreamy pads, and layered percussion, the package produces a lush, ethereal soundtrack. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
