One of the UK’s best‑loved and most respected dance music producers, Michael Gray, unveils his exciting third artist album, ‘You & Me’, on his own ever‑vibrant Sultra Records. Featuring a superb array of both fresh and regular vocal and musical collaborators, Michael delivers another superb helping of lovingly crafted discofied, boogie, and soulful dance treats, where meaningful songwriting, passionate vocal performances, and impeccable musicianship combine to create one of Michael’s best bodies of studio work to date!
“I’m really excited about this album. I enjoyed making ‘Optimism’ 2 years ago, but I feel like my sound and creativity have developed further during the production of my third album, ‘You & Me’. I think there will be a few tracks that people are not expecting from me… and that’s the joy of making an album! You can really get creative”. – Michael Gray
Across the album, Michael brings together an impressive array of world‑class talent. Rising 29‑year‑old vocalist Bran Mazz features prominently, delivering fresh performances on the standout cover of Maxwell’s ‘Ascension (Don’t Ever Wonder)’, as well as on ‘I Like The Way’, ‘Medicine,’ and ‘Breaking Away’. Chi‑town house legend Mike Dunn joins Michael on the title track ‘You & Me’, built around a clever sample of Freeez’s ‘Flying High’. Vocal powerhouse Tania Foster turns up the heat on the Latin‑disco‑flavoured ‘Shake’. New York singer Kelli Sae lends her unmistakable soul to ‘Give It To Me’ and ‘Detonate’, the latter also featuring singer/songwriter Errol Reid (China Black / Axwell). Jamiroquai’s Derrick McKenzie adds his signature live drums to ‘Detonate’ and ‘I Like The Way’. Sian Lee appears on the current single ‘Gravity’, which is sitting at the top of the Traxsource chart. ‘Universe’ sees Michael deliver an instrumental jackin’ house twist, set for a full single release on Toolroom in June. Adding further depth to the album, superstar diva Phebe Edwards brings her impeccable soulful tone to a cover of Cleo Sol’s ‘Life Will Be’, Brit‑soul favourite Dyanna Fearon shines on ‘I’m Falling For You’, and Audrey Martells lifts ‘Beautiful’ with her stunning, uplifting vocal.
Michael Gray is a DJ and music producer, and is also one half of ‘Full Intention’. His huge hits ‘The Weekend’ and ‘Borderline’ are still loved and played today. Michael is world #1 artist on Traxsource for 2024. Michael’s plethora of magical soulful, disco and funky house releases have graced labels such as Glitterbox, Fool’s Paradise, Toolroom, Z Records, Defected, Big Love and more. He also runs his own label, Sultra Records (est. 2018), featuring hit songs such as ‘Fly Away’, ‘Invincible’, ‘In My World’, ‘You’re Gonna Make Me Love Somebody Else’ & ‘You Got To Remember’. Michael has released two solo albums to date, ‘Analog Is On’ (2007) and ‘Optimism’ (2024) to great acclaim. He DJ’s all over the world for parties such as Glitterbox at Hi Ibiza, Downtown Disco & his own ‘Sultra’ events. He also has a Saturday night radio show on Mi Soul Radio (the last Saturday of every month at 7pm) and live streams his Thankful Thursday show once a month at 7pm.
