Simbad's (a.k.a. SMBD) work and music has built him a solid reputation as a very sought after producer and DJ. Despite having produced a stellar series of remixes for BBE label over the years, Collections Volume One is his debut as an artist. After establishing himself in London, at the end of the 90’s, Simbad became deeply involved in the city’s musical culture. Collections Volume One represent his work of 10-15 years - never released before - taking us for a ride in his distinctive, warm, bruk-indebted & jazz-infused sound.

With most of the music he’s done still unreleased, listening to Collections Volume One is a singular experience. Throughout the years, Simbad invited an array of talented singers and recorded the album in his London studio, blending inspirations from the city and other places he’s been. Standing through the test of time, this retrospective album is something we were needing for the present. Available on multiple formats, courtesy of BBE Music.
