Loraine James has released a new track, titled 'Street Fight PT. 2'.

The song is lifted from the forthcoming debut compilation release on SHERELLE's new BEAUTIFUL label, BEAUTIFUL PRESENTS: BEAUTIFUL VOL 1. The 18-track release also includes new tracks by the likes of Scratcha DVA, Kareem Ali and Roska, among others. You can listen to Loraine James' contribution to the compilation just below.

Speaking about her new label and its first release, SHERELLE says: "I am super happy to finally introduce the BEAUTIFUL compilation. This has been one of the most ambitious projects I have ever worked on and the people involved are all artists that over the last year I have been wanting to work with. They are some of the very best artists of the electronic scene. All important artists in their respective scenes. It is super exciting to finally have something tangible for people to listen to and I really hope they enjoy it!

"To me BEAUTIFUL is a label and platform that belongs to and is for cultivating new and exciting music. Cultivating scenes within the Black and LGBTQI+ music community in and around Europe. BEAUTIFUL will make it easier for future generations and help protect and grow the scene into something beautiful."

The release of the new track from Loraine James follows on from her second album, Reflection, which came out on Hyperdub in June and featured among tQ's favourite albums of this year so far.

BEAUTIFUL will release BEAUTIFUL PRESENTS: BEAUTIFUL VOL 1 on August 31, 2021.
