The Blaxound & John Vermont - It's Not For You | What Do You Care? [Matasuna Records]

Format: 7".

Berlin-based label Matasuna Records kicks off 2025 with an emotional 7”, featuring two songs by Barcelona's The Blaxound and singer John Vermont. Their shared passion for 60s and 70s vintage soul brought them together for this project to compose and record classic soul sung in Spanish. This 45 proves that the idea has worked perfectly: Spanish Soul at its best, with an authentic yet contemporary sound.

Known for reissuing musical treasures from the past, Matasuna Records also has a keen eye for discovering fresh new music. With The Blaxound & John Vermont, the label hits the nail on the head again with a project that fits perfectly into its sonic universe and will win over lovers of the most genuine soul.

The tracks “No Es Por Ti” and “Qué Más Te Da?”, taken from their recent album, are released for the first time in 7” vinyl format through Matasuna Records. The instrumentation and enveloping harmonies create the perfect stage for John Vermont, who displays his full vocal versatility—sometimes powerful, sometimes smooth, but always infused with soul—filling each song with his presence. The instrumental and vocal arrangements achieve an exquisite and harmonious balance. Pure beauty.
