English production Soulsavers (a.k.a. The Soulsavers Soundsystem) are a remix team consiting of Rich Machin and Ian Glover. The band brings a combination of different genres like electronic sounds and influences of rock, soul and a bit of dark country music.

The band’s third album “Broken”, is set to hit the shelves on the 17th of august and will contain a big list of guest artist on it like Mark Lanegan, Gibby Haynes, Mike Patton, Jason Pierce and many others. This album is like nothing you ever heard. It is so versatile, one moment you think it’s a movie soundtrack, the next moment you’re at a rave with its electronic influences, and the next moment it turns in a romantic atmosphere.
Broken is probably just not that mainstream enough to win over a new big group of fans. But is so bold that those who will become fans of the genre are likely to love it a lot.
