ncouraged by the high demand for 'Foundations Vol.1', which saw DJ Spinna and Kai Alce join forces to release the Cajmere classic 'Brighter Days' on 7' vinyl, the second volume of
'Foundations' sees the pair digging even deeper into House music history, selecting a pair of tracks from Chicago legend Tyree Cooper. The first cut on our strictly limited 7' pressing was
originally named 'Video Crash', then re-titled 'Acid Crash' on a bootleg version released around the same time. Whichever name you prefer, this 1988 track hails from an era of creative oneupmanship in the Chicago underground. The story goes that Marshall Jefferson and/or Lil' Louis created a jam called 'Video Clash' in the mid 80s (there's still some controversy about who made it, so we'll say no more). Keen to go one better, Tyree hit the studio to make a track called 'Video Crash' and in the process he created one of the most potent and recognizable Acid House tracks of all time. On the flip side and originally released back in '89 is Joe Smooth's 'Too Deep' mix of another Tyree classic: 'Hardcore Hip House'. A crossover anthem, Tyree's original version paired rap vocals and James Brown cutups with raw House beats. Fellow Chicago DJ Joe Smooth shows off the
flawless, crisp production abilities that would later see him producing for Destiny's Child, New Order and Whitney Houston with this superb, timeless Deep House remix

Local Talk is proud to present the second 10" release featuring music by Kyoto Jazz Sextet.

Mission is another track taken from their second album 'Unity' released on Blue Note in 2017.

Nick The Record & Dan Tyler are back with the long awaited, much anticipated 4th release on their Record Mission imprint.
If you have heard Nick The Record play out during the past year you've probably heard Work & you've definitely heard Give Me More - which has been the tune Nick has been asked about the most over the last years busy DJ schedule. They had some technical difficulties which led to delays in getting this out... or did they just enjoy the exclusivity over the last year You decide!
Give Me More is a Squidgy Funky Disco winner for the discerning dancefloor and already a bit of an anthem.Work is a feel good vocal Disco tune in celebration of the weekend party time when the week's work is over.Play is a high speed Space Disco meets Jazz jam that sounds like there was a collision between Harry Thumann & Jason Lindh somewhere in space, or maybe underwater. Enjoy! .

Having been around for almost a full calendar year, the sub-label PNP has already made quite the name for itself during the past several months. Managed by producer Fede Lng, this imprint is a spin-off of his already successful parent label Axe On Wax, which is responsible for exposing the world to such artists like Kirk The Flirt, Jesse Bru, Trudge, and Mall Grab.
Although Axe On Wax specializes in a more traditional sense of house music, PNP appears to be all about the disco - a way in which Fede and his friends can release edits of their favorite tunes of old. For DJs looking to spice up their sets with unadulterated funk, look no further than their upcoming record PNP 003, which features songs by Tom Jay, Braga Circuit, Pacific Bureau, and Fede Lng himself.

It's rare to come across a debut album that delights and surprises in equal measure, but that's exactly what you can expect from Human Call, the first full-length excursion from daydreaming dancefloor fusionists Earthboogie.The East London-based duo of Izak Gray and Nicola Robinson has previous form when it comes to creating beautiful, funk-fuelled fusions of soundsystem-ready rhythms, humid instrumentation and intergalactic audio explorations. To date, they've released a pair of fine EPs on Leng, both of which did a splendid job in showcasing their unique musical vision.Even so, this vision has never been clearer than it is on Human Call, a vibrant eight-track missive that fixes the sticky tropical cheeriness of African and South American dance music - be it Afro-disco, Afro-funk or samba - with a wide range of complimentary sounds, styles and influences, from spacey analogue electronics, sun-kissed Balearica and hazy West Coast jazz-rock, to chunky dub disco, snappy retro-futurist house and bouncy, dub-fuelled club workouts.Throughout, Gray and Robinson showcase an impressive level of musicianship, variously combining crunchy drum machine hits and dusty old synthesizers with razor-sharp electric and acoustic guitars, rich bass, cascading saxophone solos and hazy, life-affirming vocal harmonies.The result is a string of memorable highlights, from the sticky tropical-house-meets-dub disco futurism of 'Human Call' and fuzzy disco-funk righteousness of opener 'Overground', to the post-punk disco jauntiness of 'Stargazing' and samba-infused dancefloor bliss of Nina Miranda collaboration 'Silken Moon'. Cheery, absorbing, imaginative and hugely entertaining, Human Call offers a perfect snapshot of Earthboogie's distinctive musical world.

Ichisan is Slovenian Igor Skafar, and Igor´s Trademark Sound is heavenly electronic blissed spaced out house with a sick amount of grooves layerd in. Fab earlier releases on the grand Airtight and Unter the Shade labels tell musical tales of this. And so it went that Hoppsa fascinatd us yet againy with it´s mesmerizing 80´s synth hook that you want to simply lock in and play away all day and night... while Kristina is an unmistakably Philly Affair with an edge, and edge, that means deep depth and a serious build between the woobly - and that is what we like! not being able to decide which one to favour, eventually, we released both. here´s to YOU!

Cute Swedish Pop from 1984. A Gothenburg secret. Passed from Music For Dreams` Kenneth Bager to Cantoma`s Phil Mison to Rogue Cat Sounds` Dean and Ben. Pop that rocks a cool, faux-Reggae lilt with Bluesman licks and harmonica hooks. Cute like other sought after Rogue Cat favourites. Terry Crawford`s Gunfighter. Or Romie Singh`sDancing To Forget. Martin Caine`s Snowbird City. Its lyrics aSupercalifragilisticexpialidocious-like nursery rhyme front, framing "bad girl" playground reminiscences. A chorus of 'Eeniemeeniemacaracaairidominacchukabacalolliopuhunpush."
asking verses, more along the lines of "All I learnt at school was how to bend, not break the rules" (Madness). Or "Hey, Teacher! Leave those kids alone" (Pink Floyd). Than Mary Poppins excited by a day at the races. Smoking, groping, poking and "pushing" behind bike-sheds.
