The Architect
Michael Gray delivers another richly crafted body of work.
Rather than simply packaging together club singles, You & Me feels intentionally built as a complete listening experience — moving fluidly between soulful house, boogie, disco, funk and groove-led club music whilst maintaining a cohesive identity throughout. Never overly polished or sterile — there is enough looseness, groove and emotional warmth to keep everything feeling human.

You & Me — Album Review
Michael Gray · Sultra
Gray finally drops his new studio album, and it’s been worth the two-year wait. Including the affirming title track with Mike Dunn, the bumpin’ rework of Maxwell’s “Ascension” (with Bran Mazz) or the recent smash, “Gravity,” this is a long player of real quality. Did you expect it to be any different?

Sultra Records · Est. 2018
The "Sultra" Brand is the brainchild of Music Producer and DJ Michael Gray. Michael established Sultra in 2018 after the relaunch of his solo career to enable him to push out more Upfront House and Disco tracks on his own label.
Sultra Records has had many successful releases including Michael's Good Vibes Remix of Jamiroquai's "Space Cowboy" and his hit release "Fly Away" and most recently "Gravity" which reached number 1 on the Traxsource Global Chart.
In March 2023 the Sultra Brand expanded into Sultra Events. Starting at POW, Brixton and moving in 2025 to ACanteen in Essex where every event to date has sold out in advance.
Melanie joined Michael in building the Sultra brand in 2025 and the "Sultra Family" was established.
Sultra is about sharing our love for Upfront House and Disco as well as the classics and bringing it to all age groups. Our plan is to take the events around the UK and beyond.
Thank you for joining us on our journey.

1-to-1 Cubase Pro Production Lessons with a Signed House Music Producer
Book a SessionYour Tutor
Music has been a huge part of my life from an early age. I started learning music production at the age of 12 and have been passionate about creating music ever since. Coming from a musical family, I was heavily inspired by my dad, who helped shape my understanding of music and encouraged my interest from a young age. That early foundation gave me a genuine love for music production that continues to drive me today.
I am a house music producer with releases signed to respected labels including Soulfuric Records, Big Love and my next three tracks due out on Sultra Records. My tracks have achieved significant chart success on Traxsource, including multiple Top 10 pre-release chart positions, a Top 10 in the main charts, and a debut release that reached No.1 in the pre-order charts.
Curriculum
Every lesson is tailored specifically to you and can include:
Whether you are a complete beginner or already producing, lessons are designed around your individual goals and current skill level.
Additional Services
Professional ghost production for artists looking for original, release-quality music tailored to their style and brand.
Unlike online courses, YouTube tutorials or large classroom environments, every session is conducted face-to-face on a one-to-one basis. You receive complete attention throughout the lesson, allowing full focus on your music, your questions and your development as a producer.
