The remake of his classic, "Break 4 Love" 2006, is still making a strong impact internationally.  No. 1 on Nocturnal Magazine's Chart, no. 1 on Lewis Dene's DJ Mag Chart and heavily supported by trend setting djs internationally, it spread lots of love last summer from Ibiza, to Portugal, France to Moscow, US to the UK and has gone on to #17 in France, #1 in Bulgaria and Lebanon, and top 20 in European and middle East Dance charts. The David Vendetta mix set things off in Miami during the Winter Music Conference '06 when Roger Sanchez rocked the crowd with it at his Release Yourself party. DJ Romain, Moussa Clarke, and Booker T have joined the ride with their own mixes. It has been been licensed from Monster Bang Music (UK) for the world by DJ Center (France). With wider distribution along with a video and new mixes, whew, the love didn't stop in 2007! It's still available at all the premiere download spots.

 

"Africa In Your Veins" is another memorable single, although release in 2005, remixes has kept it in demand into 2006. It is now consider a Southern African classic. Taken from his last album, Long Time Coming (Waking Monster Media), which has gotten strong support by taste maker DJs internationally. It has reached #25 on DJ Mag's Hype Chart and is featured on Worlds Collide Vol.1, out now. "I Live For Now" (OvenReady) produced by Loeg Korovin & Moussa Clarke with a killer David Vendatta remix, rocked the harder rooms in late 2005. Look for an unpdated release of that under-rated track coming soon on Monster Bang with a banging mix by Sandy Vee among many others.

 

2004 saw the release of "Dance In Our Time" produced by Victor Simonelli. Under supported by distributors, it was loved by Roger Sanchez and several jocks through Europe who championed it in Ibiza and turning it into an underground party anthem at Turnmills in the UK. "Living On The Frontline" produced by Victor Simonelli and the remixes of his classic "Rhythm Of Life" by UBP both had clubs jumping from Europe, Africa and back to NYC in 2002 to 2003. They are also included on the album. The singles released from the album have been "In What," "I Found Lovin," "Face Down," and now "Africa In Your Veins" which seem to be heading toward international success.

 

Keith was the lead vocalist on the now classic "Break 4 Love" by Raze, which is featured in the Grand Theft Auto (San Andreas) video game. The international hit lead him to be signed by Capitol records in 1989 where he released the innovative "Can't Take It",coining the phrase "Ragga House" which lead the way for further experiments in house. After leaving EMI records, in 1992 he established his own label, Level 10 which released the underground classic, "The Rhythm Of Life". Originally produced by Tony Humphries with production assistance and contributions by luminaries such as Todd Terry, Masters At Work, India, and Connie Harvey. The song has been released 10 years later by Underground Solution with remixes by UBP and Johnick, and is a hit once again. "Break 4 Love" has also been getting remix treatment almost every two years. Most recently, there is the Funkrockers remix. Check www.break4love.com for more information.

2002 saw the release of three Keith Thompson releases, "Love Supreme" (Waking Monster Media), "Living On The Frontline" (West Side Records), and "The Rhythm Of Life" (Underground Solution), that rose higher on DJ play-lists with each release. 2003 saw the release of even more memorable material and performances by Thompson in the form of the single "It's On" on Innervibe Music. A favorite of Jamie Lewis, it's still supported by jocks in the UK and the US. With mixes by Scott Wozniak, Mateo & Matos, and the Groove Junkies, it had to be released in two parts.

 

Thompson has always given show stopping performances as well as shared his two decades worth of industry knowledge. Look for him on tour this coming season: Brazil, South Africa, Europe.
