Newcomer Jackie Queens releases a Deep House monster tune destined to be an anthem and one of the biggest tracks of the year!

"To cut right to the chase, the 'Enoo Napa Opaque Mix' combines Jackie Queens inimitable haunting vocals with deep ruthlessly thumpin' rhythms, luscious keys and heavenly atmospheric chords, altogether spreading a beautiful utterly tantalising vibe guaranteed to send shivers down your spine... Essential - nuff said." Mike Fossati - Spirit of House

Taken at face value, Jackie Queens' "Conqueror (Enoo Napa Opaque Mix)" is a dance floor-filler poised to be a house lover's party standard. The new Jackie Queens single enthuses with its muted bass and fizzy hi hats serving a rhythmical groundswell. Washed over with Queens' effortless vocal performance and psychedelic synth highlights the song is already causing a buzz with support from the likes of Dj Spinna, Lars Behrenroth and Charles Webster to name a few.

But the release itself, is the culmination of what Queens feels is the epitome of the organic growth of the song. Formerly a bootleg, Enoo Napa's 'Opaque' Mix caught the attention of the legendary South African house emissary, Black Coffee early this year. After encouraging Queens to make it official, Conqueror became a prominent fixture on the DJ's sets across the globe.

"Certainly the thought to make Conqueror official was not something I had in mind. At that time I was deeply questioning my path in music. Before anything else music, for me, is about community. You don't make music or become who you are on your own. In the grand scheme of things it's a belief system, it's spiritual, and a channel for empowerment. Indeed Conqueror itself, and the trajectory of Enoo Napa's Opaque Mix signifies all of those things for me" says Queens.

Apart from being another successful collaboration with a Durban producer Conqueror is remarkably different from its predecessor "It's Over", Queens' first offering of the year. Queens wrote the song as a reminder that she could be a hero to herself. "I'd love to say I wrote it for others" she laughs. "But that is not true." To those in the know the lyrics aren't new as a Moroka version was released on the Tribe Vaults Vol 4 compilation last year. Its present configuration has found a home with Spanish label Kings of Groove and is set for release on the 22nd of June. You are invited to be part of the community. On the dance floor, in your ear buds, wherever you are. You are a Conqueror!
