Rogue Vogue has been making a name for himself as a producer worth keeping an eye on with releases on French Express and remixes on Deep&Disco & French Horn Rebellion. He's finally ready to release his next original EP titled 'Say You Will' on his new home at House of Disco Records.

'Say You Will' includes 2 originals that brim with the joyous side of 90's house backed up with 3 remixes from Dublin Aunts, LeSale and House of Disco's Sixth Avenue Express. The originals are in keeping with each other while each of the 3 remixes bring something new to the table.

First up is the title track, 'Say You Will' which is a hip swaying homage to the sunny side of 90's house with more hooks than a 'Hellraiser' film. Addictive vocal stabs and sax hits are the name of the game as this one will have you digging in your drawer for those stonewashed jeans you'd forgotten about.

The first of the remixes by Dublin Aunts has a day rave written all over it with an epic acid tinged bassline and clever vocal treatments. The second remix by LeSale takes a slower, sexier tip and just grows and grows, leaning heavily on the keys but also introducing some strings into the equation.

Next up is the second original 'More Than Enough' which samples a vocal that many will recognise and makes it his own. A lot of this originals charm is in the lower end and will come to life on the right system. A dreamy breakdown cements this as a track that you'll keep coming back to.

Finally the last remix of the package by Sixth Avenue Express ads a heavy dose of sleaze to the original with a swinging melody line. Choosing to do away with the dreamy breakdown and instead replace it with an dramatic, elongated and memorable dancefloor moment.

Fresh from the success of the Guilty Pleasures EP by Satin Jackets & Ejeca, next up from the ever growing House of Disco Records is Finnebassen's - 'Baby' EP. Boasting make overs from Monitor 66, Ron Basejam and Debonair along with the original track itself, this is a vinyl with credentials that speak for themselves.

The EP opens with the original track 'Baby' from the Norwegian born producer Finnebassen. With previous releases titled 'Babies' 'Footsteps' and 'Bleedin out' I'm starting to wonder if there's some sort of subliminal message at work. However with the rate at which he's been outputting releases lately there are no signs that he has anything other than more music on the way. 'Baby' is not what we have become accustomed to expecting from Finnebassen, it strays away from his usual deep poignant echoing house tracks. Instead it's a rich funk filled gem of a track that he's shown he is capable of through his 'silly pilly edit' of It's gonna take a long time. With bluesy lead guitar riffs and his trademark bass line it's the perfect soundtrack for a blossoming summer season.

The first remix of the EP comes from Swedish trio Monitor 66 who produce under the ethos of creating ''music for sunsets.' The track certainly embodies that motif as gorgeous saxophone licks and chiming synths over a shifting bassline give it a deep tropical feel. Next up is the remix from James Baron, or as the anagram works and we know him as, Ron Basejam. His remix is more of a straight up boogie house track letting the echoing vocals do a lot of the work whilst being complimented by sprinkles of playful keys. The sliced vocals work a treat and he manages to maintain the tracks strong groove throughout. The final remix of the EP comes from London based artist Debonair who strips down the track into a deep atmospheric affair making it the perfect weapon of choice for an after hour set. Ominous kicks and the spades of tension and atmosphere will make sure that fists are pumping well into the early hours of the morning.

The whole EP is brimming with groove and if you find yourself missing Finnebassens deep echoing trademark sound from the original track then you can find essence of it in the remixes. This release speaks volumes for the trajectory of 'House of Disco Records' as a label that's constantly maturing and sidestepping pigeonholes.

Für Candlemass schließt sich ein Kreis: Ur-Sänger Johan Langquist, der 1986 das wegweisende Debüt Epicus Doomicus Metallicus einsang, kehrt endlich für ein komplettes Studioalbum zur Band zurück!
The Door To Doom setzt den roten Faden fort, den Mastermind, Songwriter und Bassist Leif Edling in den letzten Jahren für seine Band verfolgte: epischer Weltklasse-Doom-Metal, der sich auf
schleppendes Mammut-Riffing stützt. Mit Langquists dramatischen Vocals und viel Liebe zum Detail verfeinert die Band dieses Album und macht es zum nächsten - Epicus'. Gekrönt wird das Meisterwerk
von einem Gastauftritt von Black Sabbaths Gitarrenikone Tony Iommi auf 'Astorolus - The Great Octopus'- The Door To Doom ist die Doom-Metal-Offenbarung des 21. Jahrhunderts!

''For ECK003 we celebrate Data Room's debut release on Planet Earth.

This EP sees a future-thinking take on the beloved Junglist movement of the past 30 years.

Data Room delivers 3 tracks of different pace & style, centred around the aforementioned influence. Class, sophistication & bass weight can be expected from this 12".

Accompanying DR on the A-side is V Recordings' Jumpin Jack Frost, one of the original pioneers of jungle/drum & bass. Born & raised in London, growing up in the heyday of rare groove, acid house, hardcore & jungle, JJF brings a fast paced 4/4 driven breakbeat track that delivers the goods 20 beats per minute either side of it's original 158 tempo mark - taking the A2 spot to perfectly adrenalize this release.''
