Elias

After dropping releases on Basic Recordings and Versatile, France’s Julien Jabre decided to launch Elias in 2003 as a platform to release his own music without any constraints. From 2003 to 2005 Julien dropped three singles on Elias including the timeless tracks ‘Swimming Places’ that was later released on Defected Records and ‘War’ that went on to pick up support from the likes of Derrick May, Laurent Garnier and many other renowned DJs.
After a decade of working behind the scenes with various artists and scoring for film, Julien decided to revive Elias in 2016 with a reissue of the magical ‘Stand On The Word’ by The Jourbert Singers with a remix from Dimitri from Paris. The Samana EP in 2019 marked Julien’s own return to his Elias imprint with two nostalgic cuts, including an edit from Oscillat co-founder Lazare Hoche.

Review: In 2007, renowned French producer Julien Jabre tracked down the American gospel singer Phyliss McKoy Joubert on MySpace. Joubert was already a cult figure for house aficionados thanks to "Stand on the Word", a song she wrote and performed with her "Celestial Choir" in 1982 that became a staple of the club scene in New York. It resurfaced as a mysterious bootleg in 2000. Julien, who'd fallen in love with the song, was eager to remix and officialy rerelease it. When he finally reached out to Phyliss, she explained the multitrack tape had been lost. The only thing to do was rerecording it-along with 10 other tracks. Today on French label Elias, Julien and The Joubert Singers are releasing "Stand on the Word" in its original and unique 1982 version (mistakenly named after Larry Levan) and 3 brand new mixes including a fresh Dimitri From Paris remix. That's how the Good Lord works!
