İnat (Souleance Remix)
Sosyete '25

Parisian duo Souleance rework Sosyete ’25’s “İnat”, transforming the Turkish Disco-Funk track into a punchy, bossa-tinged house cut, driven by fat Moog bass, sizzling analogue synths and layers of percussion.

“İnat” originally appears on Yaygara, the debut album from Sosyete ’25, a project comprised of songwriter and vocalist Merve Erdem (Kit Sebastian/Brainfeeder), guitarist and producer Glenn Fallows (The Globeflower Masters/The Impellers), and producer/multi-instrumentalist Paul Elliott (Call Sender/Asha Puthli/Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band/Project Gemini/Shawn Lee)). Blending Mediterranean disco-pop, Turkish poeticism, and outernational funk, the album earned widespread acclaim across the international radio and DJ circuit.

Souleance’s connection with Merve dates back to “Out Of Touch”, their collaboration with Kit Sebastian on their 2023 album Beautiful. Composed of producer Fulgeance (Musique Large) and Soulist (founder/resident DJ of What The Funk), the Parisian duo draw on house, gospel, ’80s pop-funk, and disco for their take on “İnat”, taking cues from artists like Little Dragon and Todd Terje. The result shifts the original’s Anatolian funk toward a buoyant club sound without losing its melodic character.

“Electrobalearicnujazzicaldiscovibes – we’re massive fans of this version and the eclectic musical journey on which it takes us. Great to be working with Souleance on this. A great fit with what we’re trying to achieve musically” Sosyete ‘25

Since their debut on First Word Records in 2009, Souleance have built an extensive catalogue bridging hip-hop, breaks, tropical sounds, and boogie-disco, including releases like La Belle Vie, La Beat Tape, French Cassette, and the recent Kebab Discothèque EP.

On “İnat (Souleance Remix)”, two distinct bands come together through a shared love of cross-border groove. Bridging the unique sonic world of Yaygara, the remix brings Turkish musicality into conversation with contemporary house and disco, delivering a vibrant, percussion-rich cut made for sunlit sessions and dancefloors everywhere.
