BLAZE

DIANA ROSS, BOYZ II MEN, DE’ LACY, BABYFACE, GERALD LEVERT, KOOL & THE GANG &
ADEVA, ARE JUST A FEW OF THE STARS WHO HAVE BEEN TOUCHED BY THE MAGICAL
PRODUCTION & MIXING TALENTS OF BLAZE. THE BLAZE TEAM OF KEVIN HEDGE & JOSH
MILAN HAVE BEEN TURNING OUT HOUSE/R&B HITS SINCE 1987, WHEN THEY FIRST CAME
TO THE ATTENTION OF EASY STREET VIA IN SYNC’S CLASSIC, “SOMETIMES LOVE”. A
YOUNG DJ BY THE NAME OF DAVID MORALES HAPPENED TO BE IN THE STUDIO DURING
THE SESSION & CONTRIBUTED HIS 1ST EVER REMIX TO THE 12”!!!

FOR 20 YEARS, BLAZE & EASY STREET HAVE MAINTAINED ONE OF THE INDUSTRY’S MOST
ENDURING & PRODUCTIVE “PARTNERSHIPS” WHICH CULMINATED WITH DE’ LACY’S
WORLDWIDE SMASH - “HIDEAWAY” & THE FOLLOW-UP “THAT LOOK”, BOTH OF WHICH WERE
TOP 20 POP HITS IN THE U.K. RECENTLY, THE COLLABORATION RESULTED IN ANOTHER
CHART HIT, “MOVIN’ ON” BY DEBBIE PENDER (AM:PM/TOMMY BOY) & A SCORDHING
PERFORMANCE BY KATHY BROWN OF “HAPPY PEOPLE”.

IN 1999, EASY STREET RELEASE PURE BLAZE, AN ALBUM THAT FEATURED A COLLECTION
OF TIMELESS SONGS & KILLER GROOVES PRODUCED BY THIS TALENTED DUO FOR EASY
STREET DURING THE PREVIOUS DECADE.

2001/2002 FEATURED 3 NEW BLAZE REMIXES, BLACK MASSES/”MY HEAVENLY STARS”
NICCI’S/”WHEN YOU’RE FREE” AND TYKE’S/”ONE MAN”. THE SUMMER REALLY GOT HOTTER
WITH THE RELEASE OF TYKE’S “ONE MAN”, FEATURING SOME TRULY SUBLIME BLAZE
MIXES. EACH RELEASE HAS FOCUSED ON THEIR UNIQUE PRODUCTION
QUALITIES...............SOULFUL VOCALS COUPLED WITH A DEEP MUSICAL VIBE, A
COMBINATION THAT ALWAYS GUARANTEES A COOL & CLASSIC UNDERGROUND SOUND.
PURE BLAZE 2 WAS RELEASED IN 2001 AND ONCE AGAIN PROVED TO BE BOTH A
DANCEFLOOR AND SALES SUCCESS.

IN 2003, THE LONG COLLABORATION BETWEEN EASY STREET AND BLAZE REACHED A NEW
HIGH POINT WITH THE RELEASE OF A DOUBLE CD, CELEBRATION, A SOULFUL HOUSE
JOURNEY, SELECTED AND MIXED BY BLAZE. ONCE AGAIN, THE UNDENIABLE APPEAL OF
BLAZE AND THEIR DISTINCTIVE NEW JERSEY SOUND CREATED A WINNING MUSICAL
COMBINATION.
