These tracks are from a few years ago, but they are exclusively for OKHO, each track has its own history, from vocals on trips through Belgium, to seductive French voices, each track has its own story and each track has its own style within micro deep house. When I wrote this release I jumped out the OKHO

A year after his notable debut on the label, Germany's Ninetoes is back on Moon Harbour with three more of his inventive house offerings.
Releasing on labels like Kling Klong and Play It Down, the man born Özgür Yelmen has achieved plenty since 2013. Most famously he put out 'Finder', which went on to become one of the most Shazamed tracks in Ibiza and has just recently been reworked with none other than rave royalty Fatboy Slim. Since then, Ninetoes has found his way into the bags of tastemakers like Loco Dice and DJ Koze. His hip hop influenced sound now takes him all over Europe, and this latest off kilter missive is another sure-fire winner.
First out of the blocks is the colourful and organic sounding 'Bonita', a slick and slinky track with oily drums. Scurrying throughout the whole thing is a squiggly lead line that sounds like a trippy flute. It flutters about with some warm chords and brings a lovely summer vibe and loose sense of playfulness that could well help this one become another Ibiza staple in the coming months.
The perfectly fresh 'Omur' is a little deeper and is characterised by a middle Eastern vocal wail that brings an intoxicating feel to the busy drums. Lots of hits, hand drums, clicks and unusual percussive sounds pepper the groove and keep it lively and add to this essential and unusual track.
Last of all, 'Defne' is another masterfully alive, spacious and dynamic groove with lots of different focal points - a female chant, jumbled and earthy percussion, bendy synths and trumpet sounds. It's steamy and exotic and will add an element of jungle tribalism to any set.
All in all then, Ninetoes offers plenty to get excited about on this latest EP.

It took us longer than we thought but finally release no.20 is here and we have a special treat for you. Freshly signed by Connaisseur, 'Roman Rai' is back on our imprint with massive EP 'Perceptions Of Delusion'. First track of the same title is one of those tracks that will define this year here for us at Deepwave. Timeless, beautiful and simply breathtaking, not much more to say. Second track on A side 'Thoughts Are Gone' is a nice melodic ambient journey again showcasing Roman's artistic feel & creativity and expressing his feelings of past months. For first remix we invited our good friend and great producer 'Peter Pardeike' from Innervisions, and what a remix he delivers! Outstanding, dreamy, and captivating track which gets you in the zone and off ground right from the beginning. Second remix comes in hands of 'Ian Metty" who did his classical journey rework, underlined with nice afro bongos and floating atmospheres, topped with bells from original to get things moving. Whole release is coming out both on Vinyl & digital in December/January, 2017/18 respectively, and we would love you to play it and support it as we strongly believe this is a unique piece of music! Thank you.

To celebrate the launch of the enigmatic Dutch label, VDK, we present the debut release on their catalogue. VDK is all about letting the music do the talking, without any of the expectation associated with divulging an artist’s name and therefore knowledge of their past productions, therefore each artist remains anonymous.
We start proceedings with 001, a hypnotic journey with a healthy dose of retro-infused organ riffing that glistens over the top of a garage house beat, punctuated with hypnotic flute sounds and delirious vocal samples.
002 features fizzing top end percussion that carries the warping synth stabs throughout the mix. Distant chatter and indistinct snippets of heavily treated spoken snippets ebb and flow around the other elements of the track making for hazy evening atmospherics.
On the flip and closing out the collection is the B-side, 003. A progressive peak-timer, the percussion underpins a selection of discombobulating vocal arrangements that pan around to dizzying effect. Twinkling synth work dances around the upper end of the mix for the ideal set-builder.
Keep your ears out for more exciting VDK releases heading to your record bag soon…

Platform 18, known as one of Glasgow's most distinctive parties drops a solid no nonsense 4 track EP made for the dancefloor. Comprising of 3 original collaborations from the Platform 18 residents Ivan Kutz, Niz and Craig Hamilton backed with a remix from former Parisian turned Berliner Alexkid. The label set up to showcase the home-grown talents of the residents and collaborative efforts amongst friends.
'First Touch' a collaboration between Craig Hamilton and Ivan Kutz opens the EP with crisp percussive elements, solid grooves and trippy hypnotic leads. Before continuing with Alexkid's interpretation of the lead track, a more stripped back, dubby and somewhat moodier groove. Synth drones and obscure stabs add texture alongside scattered hypnotic tones, over driving rhythmic elements.
On the flip 'Reflections', marks a collaboration between long time Platform 18 selectors Ivan Kutz and Niz. Deep dubby drones dominate throughout over peppered percussive elements and layered key stabs. Carefully placed spoken word vocals lead us through the break rounded out by slick beats. Hamilton and Kutz close out the EP with'Dark Matter'. Gritty dark tones layered with arpeggiated keys over intricate percussive elements. Dubby analogue stabs and an uncompromising sub add just enough tension to drive the track forward.

2018 starts with EYE005 on Hommen's These Eyes imprint, coming from Amberoom - a project by house DJ veteran Ramin Nouyan, who has teamed up with the production duo Hoffmann / Tur.
Amberoom might be a new project still, but you definitely came across their two successful EPs on Josh Wink's Ovum label (Rhit + Minoo) in 2017. Now it's time for the third one: Orchesis EP.
Title track 'Orchesis' has been featured in several playlists since Off Sonar in Barcelona last year. Especially the lead-synth can easily get stuck in your head for a while as once again Hoffmann & Tur are showing the various kinds of outstanding productions they are able to deliver. B-side 'Laveer' is a very limited and restricted track which is an exceptional example of how you can build up a special vibe on a 117-bpm basis.

Searching for a distinct sound, a dreamy soundscape that will reach both the mind and the soul, Particular has found the perfect man to deliver their first release.
Co-founder of the Lisière Collectif project, Andu Simion comes from the outskirts of Ploieti, Romania and you can hear the industrial side of the city in his sound. It's safe to say that, while clearly being inspired by the Romanian minimal movement, he has crafted his own particular style: a deep, if maybe just a little acid-infused journey that has landed him last year a huge release on Atipic, Priku's label.
This vinyl-only release starts off with Got To Be Real, a track full of overlapping percussions that steal the show, at least until the heavy bassline unleashes and the sudden change works wonders, making the listener want to get his feet moving. The second track on the A side, Aquarium 00 (name is inspired by the 2000's internet café called Aquarium located in Ploieti), is certainly a change in tone and a more moody affair, full of trippy and stirring sounds, a welcome contrast that works perfectly.
The transition to the B side is a smooth one, as Broken Arch carries this mood on with a heavy bass line that manages somehow to stay in the background, letting the serene sounds on the surface take over.
Azureh, the track that closes things off, is a slow burner and the recurrent but eerie vocal is probably the only constant here, setting up the mood for a track that is constantly evolving. The percussion become more illustrious, the bass grows stronger and a deep, celestial, shivers-inducing sound appears gradually in the background.

After welcoming a brand new name to the label with the last EP, Moon Harbour now invites back someone who debuted on it in 2013. That man is Sabb, a tech house producer from Kosovo who has eight plus years of experience of turning out infectious club tracks. He has done so on labels like Noir and Saved, and here serves up a great single that comes with remixes by Dennis Ferrer and Detlef.
His excellent original, 'One of Us' features Forrest and is a jostling, full blooded track with shimmering drums and percussive patterns unravelling over driving kicks. Smeared synths and subtle little drum fills flesh-out the rooted groove as soulful, whispered vocals add an intimate and organic edge. It's sure to be a winner this summer and comes with two equally refreshing remixes.
The first is from Objektivity label boss Dennis Ferrer, who is a pioneering US house producer and DJ with an enviable and storied history with house music. His version is more stripped back, deeper and more patient. The vocals take on a ghostly and pop-leaning feel, melodies are all trippy and spaced out. The track oozes emotive vibes as it flows on and will surely have you
singing along in no time. This one could well be one of the anthems of the summer.
Finally, Detlef, a Viva Music mainstay, keeps things raw, old school and house with his chunky remix. All based around fat drums and dry, cutting hi hats, it is a sweaty way to round out a hugely varied EP that really offers something for everyone.

Zingiber Audio is back with a second Various Artists, Zingiber Audio 06.
The hard hitting « Laboratory » is delivered by More Than Material, the joint project between Jedsa Soundorom and Gauthier DM. With releases on French Imprints like Adult Only, Robsoul and Catwash Records, here the Parisian joins Zingiber Audio with a thumbing sub and choppy vocals as tension building effects come into play. Meanwhile, COR100's « House Test » offers groove-led drums and heady synths with a plethora of supernatural sounds.
On the flip side Jedsa Soundorom and Highpath Records boss Thomas Roland team up with « Bananier » which utilises shuffled percussion, resonant vocal slices and mystical sounds that convey a spooky atmosphere. Finally, Lowwax label owner Carlos Sanchez gives his take with a killer groove using crisp cymbals alongside brooding pads and a frenzied reworking on the vox.

Lied's debut release brings Robert's "Way of Being" double EP front center stage with a mixed bag of goodies for assorted times.
Beginning with "Skyhaze", which will surely trigger memories of Santana "Soul Sacrifice" at Woodstock 69, with bass guitar and solo to boot, driving through to "Roots", a roboticized peak time mellow-drama. The more after hours friendly "Knock" occupies the back end of the B side with acidic influences entangled with balearic harmonies and silvery grained out melodies.
"Blue Devils" toes the line of it's predecessor with a more bass driven narrative while "Zero Zero" slips into a more atmospheric disguise, finally bringing it home with a "Sneak Peak" into the more minimalistic and syncopated side of Robert, suited best for early hours of the night.
Vinyl only, just a taste of what's to come.
