From groovin house to modern disco ready to beam away...
heavyweights groovers!

The seminal production duo that was Kevin Hedge and Josh Milan - aka Blaze - during the 90's set the bar for soulful dance music. Their body of work in the 90's is unparalleled in house music, and is still discovered by generations of music lovers today. On this limited edition 12' repress we combine two timeless productions with Milan performing under the moniker of Alexander Hope.

This is the first time "Lowdown" has ever been pressed on 12" vinyl single since it's original release in '76. The B side brings back "JoJo" off the 1980 Middle Man album, coupled with the mighty "What Can I Say". RSD exclusive pressed on 180g vinyl.

When Bridge Boots started out it was a way for Caserta to take classics and introduce them to the dance floor in a completely different way. Finally he said enough is enough. Instead of reintroducing classics lets make some first introductions of some new ones! The first offering is ‘Most High’.

The A Side features an extremely special guest, none other than JUST BLAAAZE but for this release we’ll call him The Reverend Just Blaze. Rev Blaze comes with an uplifting sermon in his legendary vocal rasp over a bed of triumphant horns, flutes, vibes and strings. Let’s be honest who couldn’t use some ‘triumph’ these days?

The B Side is a smooth disco affair that could be considered Luther 3 if it wasn’t for the absence of Mr Vandross. Instead LA Opera tenor Ashley “Ash” Faatoalia and Caserta himself handle the vocal duties over disco drums, grooving bass by the incomparable Serge Gamesbourg and funky guitar by Nile…I mean Ryan “Lucky Ry” Stockbridge.

With this line up it all but guarantees someone will be giving Caserta a taste of his on medicine and bootlegging him somewhere down the line ;)

Released in summer 2018, 'A.E.I.O.U.' is the first single from upcoming album by legendary Brazilian singer DI MELO, 40 years after his classic self-titled Samba-Soul LP. Performed and produced by French brilliant combo COTONETE, it has received great support from DJs and media internationally, with amongst them DIMITRI FROM PARIS, who also honored us with a banging remix!!

David Penn is one of Spain's biggest DJs and producers, who celebrated being named #1 house artist on Traxsource in 2019!

Sitting pretty on top of the charts the prolific Spanish producer, owner of Madrid’s Urbana Recordings, radio host and all-round house-hero.

Has managed an impressive eight tracks in the Top 200 overall tracks of the 2019, nineteen in the Top 200 House and several Traxsource #1s throughout the year.

Not to mention three huge Defected tunes in 2019 with his remix of Sophie Lloyd and Dames Brown’s‘ Calling Out’, the huge Gospel-esque piano-anthem ‘Stand Up’ featuring Ramona Renea and his fresh take on Pete Heller’s classic ‘Big Love’.

‘Ain’t Go No’ See’s him collaborating with KPD & as you would expect is based around a super-catchy riff and unmistakable groove with a soulful vocal which are all the hallmarks of a producer who is at the absolute top of his game.

Transparent-yellow vinyl 12” (500 copies hand-numbered)

Here is the second compilation OWL, including some Nu Italo gems by 4 talented artists.

The well-known Kid Machine joins the label with a perfect track to uplift a crowd. He brings the 80’s back to life with a journey through the stars…

The Milanese duet Forklift & Saw, in love with vintage hardware, like to call their music Regressive disco, a different way to speak about Nu Italo. That track is perfect for going on the road or sharing a good time on the beach in Italy…

Machinegewehr, an amazing & complete artist (painter, musician, DJ,…), sends us a wonderful Cosmic Italo sound! It’s 3 AM and now, it’s time to unify and move forward in the same direction. Close your eyes and go far away…

Finally, the duet Los Pollos Hermanos (Myrddin & Red Fish) produces music cut to dance until the end of the night. A catchy, powerful, and uncompromising Nu Italo rhythm!

THE OWL IS AMONG US !!!

It's 6:66am when Chinaski elbows his way on to the floor. Leather jacket. Metal studs. Bare arms. Tattoos. With his hand freshly stamped this newcomer brazenly strides into the Bordello. His style Try to pin it down. Beats parry and pound with the intensity of an EBM hammer. Yet, strolling through those meaty kick drums stride shimmering melodies that sport elements of new beat, italo and techno. The rakish grooves of 'Surfin' Dead' occupies the A-Side. Bold rhythms fly in the face of burbling bass and cascading chords as Chinaski takes control. A body pumping work out follows. 'Unschuld Der Sinne' throws beat shaped fists from the needle drop as a brawl breaks out. Born in the smoke machines of Belgium, this bruiser balances its rough edged rhythms with beaming bars. There's to be no relenting as the closer screams like a nitro-fuelled missle. 'Ab In Die Ewigkeit' soars is a muscle-bound sky rocket set to keep any floor rumbling to the break of dawn.

2021 is being a very prolific year for Spanish label Night Shift Records with all their releases reaching the top of the sales charts. After the success of the past references by the owner of the label Javi Frias and the San Diego superstar Never Dull, now it is the turn of Solazz, founding member of the Supa Disco project born five years ago in Ibiza, which debuts at the label with an amazing four track EP titled 'Highlife Disco'. Side A includes 'Work It Out', a great rework that includes a great bass line added to the original that makes it irresistible to dance, and 'Time's Running' a groovy summer vibe track that contains high-pitch voice side-walking with a top synth bass. On the B side, 'Roller Skate INC' strikes your body with conga rhythms and a funky bass, and last but not least 'Highlife Music', a killer track of afro-disco with piano house touches, evolving synths and great sax solo that will make you dance again!

Tavares were an American Disco-Soul-Funk band, with a great deal of songs that charted on Billboard, including their Disco hit “Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel”, which topped the US Dance Chart in 1976, and a grammy award for their rendition of The Bee Gee’s “More Than A Woman” in 1978. Both tracks have been rerecorded for this special 12’ edition.

London boy Joe Corti's biggest project yet, five fully flavouried house tracks showcasing his take on the genre.

RNT is going back to the roots of their Reserve series with Rose Cutz 2, a pack of burners and heaters from Rose Records honchos Luvless and M.ono. Each producer takes a side, delivering a little something for any time of night, from the up tempo stomp of Eins A Legge to the slow analogue pulse of File Save As. A rose by any other name...is still a banging record!

You hear the one about a German, a Scotsman, an Englishman and an Israeli walking into a Disco?… Us neither but this EP is no joke. The A side features big in the game names like Marcel Vogel and Al Kent so you know we’ve got some quality Disco lined up for you on the 9th Editz. On the flip, SB deliver their latest offering to the dancefloor gods whilst Davin Varda rounds off the EP with his anthemic rework of an Israeli disco gem.

This time you'll find the Wax's #plectrum with the vinyl; a little gadget to stimulate your musical fantasies. (only for the first 200 orders!)

Four years and ten releases later we can say that Apparel Wax -the vinyl-faced hero- has been able to always renew itself and its sound because, as our manifesto says, we try not to submit to any genre. We wanted every release to be the outcome of a long research through uncommon sounds and APLWAX010, yet again, is an unidentified sonic object picked up by our radar. The last one though! We didn't plan it, we just felt like the time has come -eventually- to close this beautiful chapter. More than one factor led us to take this decision: the progressive concern about the planet (therefore the impossibility to keep producing plastic bags and gadgets), the desire to leave at our peak and to invent something new are just two of them. The constant process behind the renewal of our sound -which we embraced ten years ago with the birth of Apparel Music- sometimes passes through hard choices and we need to feel again that sensation of 'void' in order to create something fresh, different, as we did when we started Apparel Wax. We won't drag our masked hero to a point of sonic stagnation. We'd like to send you all a big greeting and a heartfelt thanks for every second of your time spent listening to Apparel Wax, it literally meant the world to us. What was initially just a bold idea became a musical reference point for many people around the world, and we will be forever grateful to y'all because, without you, it would have never been possible. Finally, a huge thanks to all the artists involved in the project. They contributed with their art to a bigger cause, the biggest: music. YOU are the true masked heroes, you are Apparel Wax. As for us, we'll live on and our sound too. Our ideas, our passion and dedication for the one and only thing that really makes us happy will never die. Something new will always come on our end because that's our purpose, our philosophy. Manman, what a journey has been, now on to the next one!

ANIMALS009 sees French producer Benoit B make first contact with Melbourne's Animals Dancing after releases on Into The Light, Berceuse Heroique, Unthank, Versatile and his own Banlieue.

On 'We Come In Peace', Crystalline FM synthesis meets tight drums across four PSY FI tracks that showcase the producer's shapeshifting style.

'Drums Symphony' layers undulating rhythms from crisp drums, Arps, FM Bells & SFX that ebb & flow, building to a driving dance floor trip. 'La Retraite Des Rockers' conjures Sakamoto & Vangelis in '82 with eratic perc, warped metallic sfx & ominous pads that find balance with a glowing synth lead & syncopated bass. The title track, 'We Come In Peace' is a balearic trance stomper where swirling 303, pitch bending leads & glistening synths cascade across a pulsing bassline. 'Dreelkrugz Conquest' is lysergic mid tempo electro with gated synths hovering above a growling baseline and flutters of heavily affected synthwork.
