Xavier

3) A nu disco artist who's début single, Give Me The Night, was released 15 Aug 2005 (Ten Records). The track was produced by Scott Hoffman (aka Babydaddy of Scissor Sisters) & A Touch of Class. The song was, originally, part of a A Touch of Class EP (the NY label responsible for launching the Scissor Sisters & The Ones). It's an italo disco / synthpop cover, of George Benson's anthem, written by Rod Temperton (writer of many Michael Jackson hits: Thriller & Rock With you).

This 2nd 12" features two remixes by the ThePlastic Avengers , it has already seen support from trend-spotters Erol Alkan and Soulwax, now the record is set for crossover success this summer.

Contrary to his parents’ reports Xavier was immaculately conceived. Any resemblance he bears to them is purely coincidental. His incessant howling around the house, neighbourhood mini-concerts from his bedroom window, and impromptu performances for houseguests prompted his mother to arrange an audition with the Boys Choir of Harlem. Not only did he get in, but within his first year he was touring with the group as a featured soloist at the age of 11. During his seven-year stint with the group he got to sing alongside notable performers like Paul McCartney, Quincy Jones, Whitney Houston and his hero Stevie Wonder.

While studying at Columbia University, Xavier managed to make a name for himself singing in New York’s downtown club scene, between socializing and not doing his coursework. In fact, he won one contest so many times, he was asked not to return.

4) An R&B artist based out of Boston, MA. His debut EP was released for free on Symbols Recordings (https://soundcloud.com/symbolsrecordings/sets/xavier-hearts-daggers-ep-1/).

5) Xavier was born Bay Area resident Eugene Xavier Duckworth Jr., the son of the owner of coffee chain Gene’s Beans. At the age of 21, Xavier went platinum with the song “X Marks The G-Spot” off his album, Somebody Xave Me. Although Xavier recently died tragically, his music lives on in his latest unfinished album, now an EP titled R.I.P. Xavier, which ironically features his new single, “Imma Live Forever.”

“The Afterparty” centres on a murder mystery at a high school reunion. Each of the eight episodes features a retelling of the same night told through a different character’s perspective, each with its own unique visual style and film genre to match the teller’s personality
