Wanda Felicia And Cold Diamond & Mink

Stuck On You

    Wanda Felicia drops a dynamite double-sider on Timmion Records with 'Stuck On You' b/w 'Flowers In The Garden' – two soulful standouts from her debut album 'Now Is The Time...'. Brought to life by the analog alchemy of Cold Diamond & Mink, they showcase the full range of Wanda’s timeless voice and songwriting finesse.

    On the A-side, 'Stuck On You' struts in as an upbeat soul shuffler, delivering infectious energy with tight rhythms, warm organ, and Wanda’s unmistakable presence at the helm. It’s a flirty love song that grooves with clarity and conviction, made for celebrations.

    The flip side, 'Flowers In The Garden', slows things down into a mellow midtempo groove – a lyrical reflection on relationships and emotional growth told through the changing seasons of a blooming garden. With sweet harmonies, a soaring chorus, and a graceful sax solo by Pope Puolitaival, it’s a lush, radiant piece of soul craftsmanship.

    Together, these tracks feel like two pages from a love letter – heartfelt, detailed, and dressed in the warm textures of analog soul. Whether dancing by yourself at home or cutting through on a selector’s set, this 7” is a sure keeper.

    Jimi Tenor & Cold Diamond & Mink

    July Blue Skies

      Embark on a funky synth-drenched journey as the cosmic count Jimi Tenor reunites with Timmion Records’ soul architects Cold Diamond & Mink for yet another album. When placed side by side with the fellows’ recent effort 'Is There Love In Outer Space?', 'July Blue Skies' glides on a slightly more raw and mystical plane.

      Crafted over fiery sessions between Tenor and Cold Diamond & Mink, this vinyl release offers six soul-grasping tracks ranging from mellow groove to soundtrack funk. The album’s opening title song kicks off with an extended analog synth intro which eventually develops into a sweet romantic invocation, painting a sonic canvas reminiscent of a boundless summer sky. The most vocal tune of this quite instrumental set of songs 'Sky Train Baby' propels the listener on a locomotive ride through the star systems while 'Venus of Barsoon' with its drum breaks and fuzz sounds blast you straight into sci fi movie funk territory.

      The album’s B-side opens with 'Ikuchi', where Tenor’s always trusted flute and tenor sax take the spotlight over the slinky library beats. Closing the album we discover two single releases, the sublime 'Summer Of Synesthesia' and the demonic 'Tsicroxe' both completely worthy to hear sequenced inside this album as well. This album might be just the Spring jam that you needed in your life.

      Thee Baby Cuffs & Cold Diamond & Mink

      There Ain't Enough Roses

        If there’s a group in this age that faithfully carries the torch of real group soul harmony, it must be these three cats from the US west coast by the name of Thee Baby Cuffs. Currently composed of Joe Narvaez and Reality Jonez, the trio prances on the stage with their new song 'There Ain’t Enough Roses'. Produced together with the Timmion house band Cold Diamond & Mink, these gentlemen lay down pure soulful romantics enough to fill a jacuzzi.

        Even though they seem to be walking out from the candy and flower shop empty handed to meet their lover, they are equipped with lyrics and falsetto flows that can melt any heart. Continuing with their tried and tested downtempo ballad style, Thee Baby Cuffs deliver a soul boulder just as potent as their previous Timmion releases 'My My Baby' and 'You’re My Reason', not to forget the brilliant work that they have put out on the Raza Del Soul label from California.

        So hop on in the passenger’s seat and let Thee Baby Cuffs serenade you all the way to the sunset. In case you’re more for the instrumentals, flip the single over to reveal the flute-led version that’ll send you to that sweet Steve Parks lowrider territory in no time.

            Jimi Tenor & Cold Diamond & Mink

            Is There Love In Outer Space?

              Multi-genre album with crossover potential, blending jazz, soul, funk, and electronics. Cult artist active since the early 1990s who has released records on labels like Warp and Kindred Spirits. Fresh collaboration between singular vocalist/musician and the Cold Diamond & Mink band. LP Housed in vintage style Tip-On Sleeve. There are certain occasions when you can truly feel the stars align. One of these is when the interstellar voyager of cosmic soul Jimi Tenor finally lands his spaceship at full force on a Timmion recording. In 2024, he will be serving us two spaced out album sessions recorded together with Cold Diamond & Mink. Jimi is no stranger in these space ways as he has operated behind the Timmion scenes for years, furnishing several of the label’s artists with his flute and reeds artistry. The first album out is titled “Is There Love In Outer Space?”, which begs the question with the force of five extended tracks that are guaranteed to blow your mind to the stratosphere. The pieces are loaded with whooshing and glistening synth noises and span from lofi space funk to cinematic soundscapes. The sweetly floating title track is like some of those galactic ballads that rare soul collectors are spending their pensions on. At the other side of the spectrum, album closer ‘What Are You Doing?’ sounds like Sun Ra sat down at a JBs session, and is straight up meant to get that booty moving. Combined with the raw soul prowess of CD&M, Jimi is able to refine new shades from his already impressive repertoire of talent. Even if you are a friend of his previous work you might not have heard him get down quite like this.
