Just for a moment, take a very deep breath. Now that I have your attention, I would like to welcome you to a safe space where you can immerse yourself into the inclusive space we call house music. A sanctuary where you don’t have to stress about, racism, violence, or any other forms of hate. Beware of others who might tell you anything different.
In the words of the great, Chuck Roberts:
“You may be black, You may be white, You may be Jew or Gentile. It don’t make a difference in our house”

“For a long time now, I have wanted to create an outlet for the club focused music I am constantly creating, and a place to champion music by artists that I love – music made strictly for the dance floor, with the sole ambition of creating more of these euphoric moments. It is for that reason that I am beyond excited to announce the birth of my record label – ‘Forever Days’. Music for the days and nights that last forever in our memory. I have never been this excited about anything in my entire life. I can’t wait to show you all the music we have ready, and to create some Forever Days for all of us.” – SG Lewis
