Sticking with the 4/4 beat on this project, Yousef skilfully weaves through a variety of sophisticated electronic music. Sultry vocals sit next to Chicago rhythms, elevating moments couple up with cinematic techno, all relentlessly pulsating to the heart beat of authentic house. In The Process of Eight is an undertaking accomplished by someone who has dedicated their working life to the spirit of house music. Produced, arranged and mixed by Yousef, the project invites a talented multitude of seasoned, fresh and even unknown artists, singers and beat makers to join him. Collaborations come from, Uner, Reboot, Bontan and the legendary Blakkat, with vocals from The Angel, soon to be discovered LA based jazz songstress Erica Thomson and Crosstown Rebels frequenter Kieran Fowkes, who appears on the first single taken from the album Let Go. In The Process of Eight also includes two of Yousefs iconic tracks Come Home and Float Away, amalgamating them along side his brand new compositions creating the producers most accomplished body of work to date. Three singles from the album are penned for release in quick succession by mid summer 2015, followed by further music released on other world-class labels, Ellen Aliens Bpitch Control and Dennis Ferrers Objektivity.

So first of all Im thanking whatever it took to make me actually be alive, Im massively impressed with the world and life in general, so thanks, I fucking love living! I love music, djing and producing too of course, few things excite me more. Slightly more impressive than my love for music and my zest for life are the finest two people imaginable, my wife Deborah, you are such an incredible women and are the reason im so ecstatic all the time (most of the time) and to the worlds leading individual, our son Theo Yoey, YoBoy, Yo Having you both in my life feels like the most accomplished honor I could wish for, you are both true joy and I cherish every moment with you both.
