Sensual and seductive producer/vocalist Vikter Duplaix pours his heart and soul into his new album ‘bold & beautiful,’ highlighted here on this delectable five-track 12-inch EP.

Duplaix, known in R&B music circles as a founding member of Philadelphia based Axis Music Group – reputed for their work with Erykah Badu, Musiq, Vivian Green and Jill Scott to name a few – is also an internationally acclaimed producer, vocalist and DJ. Duplaix became regarded for mixing classic and contemporary Soul music with world and house beats to create an eclectic vibe. With his sophomore release as a solo artist, Duplaix is introducing the world to a lifestyle he calls “Duplaix Mode,” a sensual mix of music, art & design, food, drink, and a sexy attitude. bold & beautiful, his follow-up to the critically acclaimed International Affairs, represents the evolution and refinement of that vibe – and has garnered early support for his Sade-like brand of Quiet Storm music. Raw and honest-it is a daring departure from sub-standards of today's pop music. Having been compared to modern-day Barry White, Vikter Duplaix makes music for the grown & sexy. The album includes appearances and collaborative production work with the likes of James Poyser, Michael Angelo, Esthero, Tye Tribbett & GA, Raphael Saadiq, Karsh Kale, Gary Dourdan, Suphala, Omar Edwards, Junius Bervine and house music pioneer Louie Vega.

This 12-inch EP features five amazing tracks from the album. From the mellow, ecstatic pulse of “Stimulation” to the funky, broken-beat ride of “I See The Sun,” this EP demonstrates the scope of Vikter Duplaix’s artistry, while highlighting the soulful consciousness that is the backbone of all his work. An intoxicating ode to love, “Pure” rounds out the A-side, while the melodic “Nothing Like Your Touch” on the B-side warms things up for the bouncing, deep house floor-filler “In The Real World (Duplaix Mix).” With five tracks of pure soulful vibes, masterfully crafted as only Vikter Duplaix can, this EP is sure to be stimulating.
