About We Play House Recordings

We Play House Recordings - WPH - is the work of Belgian DJ & producer Red D. Started 10 years ago to release the music of his friend san Soda, the label had (and has) the aim to release house music in all its shapes and forms. WPH's house ethics date back to the days where house was just a name for music that was played in clubs. There is no such thing as tech house, no such thing as deep house or minimal, there is simply (house) music, good or bad.

We Play House Recordings is lovingly led by Red D (real name Bart Van Neste), one of Belgium's leading underground music figures. Be it in his role as DJ, A&R, promoter, music panel host or general nitelife instigator, Red D does things with passion, humor and a healthy dose of keeping-both-feet-firmly-on-the-ground...with a twist...

WPH was started in 2007, so it takes no math genius to know that in 2017 the label is celebrating its 10 years anniversary. Running from the spring till winter 2017 this anniversary will be celebrated with special vinyl releases, a triple CD, a digital compilation, a Spotify playlist and a series of label nights all over Belgium and beyond. True to form the compilation will have WPH classics but also a BIG bunch of new material from core artists of the label like Locked Groove, San Soda, Kiani & His Legion, Fabrice Lig and many more.

The Strictly Rhythm imprint is legendary and is instantly recognisable by connoisseurs worldwide. It's a label that has contributed time and time again to dance music culture across it's almost 30 year lifespan. Countless classics passed through the NYC offices of Mark Finkelstein and Gladys Pizarro and this brand new 'Strictly Classics' series looks to celebrate this cornerstone dance label and it's immense catalogue by going back to the archives and presenting some double-header action for diehard fans and newcomers alike. That's right, the 'proper' mixes, reissued from source and remastered to the highest spec, each track spread across one side of a 12" for optimal sonic playback.

What better to kick off this series of essentials than DJ Pierre's 1991 Wild Pitch mix of the mighty Photon Inc's anthemic 'Generate Power', a record that still smashes dance-floors across the globe to this very day, a true house classic that is the perfect opener for this new series. Backed by George Morel's equally influential and funky 1993 proto-UK Garage groover 'Let's Groove' you can see the quality control is set to high. Back to back, strictly classics, nothing more, nothing less!

Remastered with love by Optimal mastering, Bristol from original master sources. Made in conjunction with Strictly Rhythm 2018.

Optimo Trax 30 celebrates a double 30 year anniversary: the original release date of Rejekto' and 30 years since Twitch started dj'ing. In 1987, Twitch, who wasn't known as Twitch yet, picked up a copy of Rejekto' at Glasgow's then numero uno import shop, 23rd Precinct. He was smitten.

Shortly after that he got his first ever dj gig and played Rejekto' in his first ever dj set. Nobody danced to it. He kept playing it and still nobody danced to it. Eventually he gave up playing it, but never stopped loving it.

A few years ago he felt the time was right to try playing it again, and this time, people danced to it. In fact, people loved it and would ask about it and shriek in delight when they heard it. There is often a lot of false nostalgia talked about in dance music and how it was better back in the day'. Well, in some ways it was but in many it wasn't, and 30 years later it feels as if perhaps ears are more open, or perhaps Rejekto' was just ahead of its time

From Germany, written and produced by Ra-Hen and Talla 2XLC, Robotiko Reject's Rejekto' was the inaugural release on the Techno Drome International label. With a powerful and seductive vocal sung in Romanian it has latterly been categorised as EBM/Techno but at the time didn't really fit into any convenient genre. Twitch called it electrobeat.

To celebrate this 30th release on Optimo Trax, the 12' comes in a
special sleeve designed by Katie Shambles and Andrew Beltran. As well as featuring the original classic Perfekto' and U.S. Dub' versions, this reissue features a slo-mo cover version by long-time Twitch friend and ally, the mysterious Frenchbloke who was the only other person he knew back then who also loved this wonderful record. Robotiko!

Power Music Records presents Mood ll Swing! This release was originally only available as limited red vinyl edition. On A side ther are the glorious originals from Mood II Swing "Move Me" and "Move Me - Alternative Mix". On The B side we have 2 great remixes of Mood II Swing's "Call Me" by DJ Duke.

The 2018 remastered version will be available on red and black vinyl (please upload both with the diffrent catalog numbers (see below).

Part 3 of 5 to be released over the coming couple of months. Originally released on the Phono label in 1995/96 the 'Parts' series from Matthew Herbert are a much loved collection of house tracks that sound just as original and bold today as they did when they were first released. This series of 12's were part of an early wave of exploratory dance music that paved the way for the deep house that still works its magic on dance-floors in 2018 some 25 years later. The mix of Herbert's playfulness alongside expertly grooving production and unusual sounds makes this unique collection of work. The odd few tracks aside this is the first time that these releases have ever been repressed. All newly remastered for this reissue series, the releases include stone cold club classics such as 'Deeper', 'Take Me Back', 'Resident', 'People That Make the Music' and 'See You on Monday'.

Repress will be coming by the middle of the year 2020....

Sable Sheep has fast become one of Moon Harbour's most integral family members thanks to his fresh tech house
perspective. Here he returns with another hot new EP that also features a vinyl re-release of 'Upon Burning Skies',
which proved to be something of a hit on dancefloors across the world this summer gone. Buyers of a digital
persuasion will also be treated to a Dan Drastic remix of Sable Sheep & Fosky's 'Barricades Of Nowhere.'

Despite being on a constant and busy tour of top clubs and festivals across Europe, German Sable Sheep has still
managed to come up with the goods. On 'Cargo Room', a jostling, loopy bit of slinky tech house with warm paddy
kick drums and a sensually teasing vocal snippet that stretches between the beats. The poly-rhythmic effect is
hugely infectious before 'The Forgotten Ones' goes for a much creepier, weirder vibe. This one is all suggestive and
shadowy, with occult synth dots and alien life forms all existing above a beautifully elastic bassline. It breaks and
kicks again at various points and it's sure to have attentive dancefloors in raptures, locked on to every rotation.

'Barricades Of Nowhere' is a collab with rising Argentinian Fosky, who has released on Crosstown and Desolat
before now. This one spits out metal snares, has an urgent alarm-like hook and picks up the pace with its bouncy
techno leaning beats and big hi hat ringlets. Physical but warm and organic it's perfect dancing music before the re-
release of last track 'Upon Burning Skies' - the hard hitting anthem complete with dark but soulful African
murmurings that has made Sable Sheep such a recognised producer the world over.

Closing out another EP that exactly hits the mark and displays Sable Sheep's usual sense of charismatic sampling,
long time label stalwart Dan Drastic re-imagines 'Barricades Of Nowhere' as a spangled, synthetic bit of supple
techno that's loose and rubbery and will have you shaking your limbs like you just don't care.

Another great reissue from JohNick on Henry Street Music. Essential house classic Open Up Your Eyes and Captain, including the unreleased Moplen remix!

Loosewomen are core members of the Grade10 Record label, with vinyl releases, cassettes and remixes under their belts they have now arrived with a new two tracker.

This record has been described by piers as a updated early 90's UK house sound but they like to think of it as more just the music that comes out of the MPC when they sit down at it. Saying that the echoy vocals, loose breaks in the back ground and big kick can stick you in a northern wood out side on a summer evening pretty quickly, Unstable At The Stables also has a loopy synth line running through it and Jupiter's Revenge is a bit bleepy so maybe their right.

(incl. Joris Voorn remix) It's a brave artist who takes on the task of remixing what many would regard as a true 'Classic' record. Especially when said track holds it's own personal memories, having played it's part in shaping their own musical path. Green boss Joris Voorn has taken the plunge, by lending his skills to reworking 'Mengs Theme', a true Dutch techno classic from Secret Cinema's former alter ego, Point Blank.

First Ep (of four) announcing the forthcoming Orlando Voorn COLLECTED double CD that will showcase what we believe is the best from the Dutch producer in his early days. This EP focuses on the housier side of Orlando Voorn and gather on one slice of wax 4 useful classic tracks for the djs.
Orlando Voorn, the artist:
He who started in the late 80's as a successful DMC DJ in The Netherlands, mixing electro and hip-hop tracks, established thenafter an historic musical connection between Amsterdam and Detroit. Orlando Voorn's unique signature of early productions, analog tweaks, funky beats and cosmic chords, quickly attracted the attention of the like of Juan Atkins and Kevin Saunderson, for which he produced game changing classic tracks like "Game One (as Infiniti)" and "Fix (as Flash)" in the early 90's only to continue to do so until today on numerous labels (R&S, Fragile, Nightvision...) and under various aliases (Playboy, Ghetto Brothers, Format...).
Musique Pour La Danse, the serie:
COLLECTED is about... collecting definitive and inestimably valuable works by key dance producers from the past and digging with them classics, hard-to-find and unreleased gems from their vaults to bring them back for your sole and only pleasure. Stay tuned for more house music and beyond.

The new Mojuba brings some fresh tunes from the always reliable Oracy. The title track 'Rewound' is a deep and warm excursion into the sound cosmos that was build on the heritage of Detroit and Chicago. The flipside is called 'Hold Me' and comes along as peak time cut with some hypnotic disco elements and a phat bassline to proof some serious floor qualities! That's how we like it!
