House Vinyl New Releases - News

Amphia 016 presents Amorf's first release on the label's catalogue.

The two tracker EP entitled "Dimensions" links different points on the electronic music map. Both sides rely heavily on synths, complemented by a wide range of dynamic percussions and solid basslines.

"Reflections" displays a brighter tonality with its shifted rhythm and playful low-end work, flowing through a canyonlike
sonic landscape. This stream of sounds meet at the apogee of the track, a carefuly crafted and tensioned buildup, pushing
you further until the end.

"Manifold Surface" leans toward a more graceful touch. It begins with a gentle synth motif, helping to introduce the main
character and theme of this track. Shapeshifting sounds with background spatial elements create a wide frame that keeps
you locked in. Towards the final stages, this movement morphs slightly to an ambient sounding composition.

I'm excited that Death on the Balcony are back on All Day I Dream.
Purveyors of smooth house music, our friends drum up an EP of emotive, charming music.

Each track slowly unfurls allowing it to tell its own story. If you're like me and tend to skip through promo tracks to save time and basically get the bullet points, you will probably not feel them. If you let them wash over you, you might just fall in love ...

Love, Leee.

Perth native turned Melbourne local Roza Terenzi is one of Australia's exciting new electronic artists. Her debut for Voyage delivers a three-piece suite of experimental, rhythmic workouts; forward thinking with a heavy lean on early rave nostalgia.
The EP is rounded off with a fast-paced remix of the title track from Vancouver's D. Tiffany.

6th release of Botanic Minds Sunset Series. 12" 180g Vinyl Only. Early support by Raresh, Arapu, Nu Zau, Janeret, Vincentlulian.

Dirty Funk House from Colombia! With heavy remixes by SEB WILDBLOOD (Church), RETROGOTT (Ava, Money Sex) & DJ QUALLE and PONTCHARTRAIN. Felipe Gordon is new to the scene, but entering the house world now via Toy Tonics in a heavy way. Just watch that remix package: Felipe Gordon has some massive fans already. He knows a few dudes and he has some cool releases coming on Church, S3A records and Intimate friends. In fact Felipe is throwing some of the biggest Underground House parties in Colombia along with his Nómada Records crew from Bogotá. And he is making tracks, too. Dirty bangers. With a certain unique vibe. He used to play in bands before switching to samplers and getting addicted to old disco and house vinyl. You can hear that: his moody, raw tunes use samples of rare records. But selected carefully, adding his own Juno 60 or Moog synth chords (like on 'Tell me something true"). Often using minor keys and lot of little noises and short spoken words by himself. Never clean, always musically special. Felipe Gordon might be new to the international dance scene, but for sure you gonna hear that name more frequently over the next years.

The 'Vista' EP caps off an intensely busy year for Geoff Kirkwood, otherwise known as Man Power. The British DJ/producer has become quite the 'tour de force' in 2018, with releases and remixes for Futureboogie, DFA, Correspondant, Exotic Series, Skint Records, and his very own Me Me Me imprint.

So it seems quite fitting to seal a productive 12 months with a release on Richy Ahmed's Four Thirty Two, a label that itself has been firing out big releases this year from EJECA, Jansons & Senzala and Ahmed himself. And joining this big end of year party, enter stage left, Roman Flu¨gel, who delivers an absolutely stellar remix of 'Vista'.

Meaty synths and clattering 909 drums are doused in futuristic Italo disco vibes for
'Outrider', whilst a winning combo of breakbeats and acid affected bass provide the
backbone of the simply gargantuan 'Vista'. Roman Flu¨gel's interpretation of the title
track brings the break to the fore, playfully teasing out the acidic sounds and surging
strings for another truly memorable remix that we've come to expect from Mr. Flu¨gel.
Closing the EP, 'Poly Pop' delivers a vivid and bright burst of melody over clanking
percussion and sturdy beats, filled with 'end of the night' optimism that's become Man
Power's forte.

Presenting a fully legit, remastered and repackaged reissue of this extremely sought after, cult 1991 EP. Brand new for 2018.

London's Warriors Dance label was a unique operation and a pioneering London label during the late 80's acid house phenomena. Home to an assortment of DJs, MCs and soundmen, they went on to make their own original and indelible mark on the rave scene from the infamous 'Addis Ababa' studio on Harrow Road on the North-West side of the city. A former reggae and soul studio that was instrumental to the output of influential artists like Soul II Soul and more, a steady diet of reggae, bass, hip-hop, house and techno kept their edgy, and diehard UK sound and style right at the cutting edge of the dance music underground across the globe with the top DJs and producers of the day celebrating the label. The studio, helmed by label owner Tony 'Addis', acted as an incubator for artists whose names would go down in the history books.

Some of the raw talent that passed through the legendary WD studios appear on this extremely rare various artists EP from the dawn of the 1990's - Addis Posse, Melancholy Man, Watt Noize & No Smoke all feature. Drawing on the breakbeat heavy, more Hip-Hop orientated style the crew were known for this one's packed full of pure London street sounds all fused with the Techno and House sensibilities that made the label so potent. Let's bear in mind all of this stuff pre-dates the incoming Jungle scene by a good few years, but the seeds and attitude are there for all to see. Brimming over with rough and tough left-field sounds 'Warriors Dance After Midnight' is a strong statement of intent, 4 blistering and obscure cuts from the depths of Harrow Road. Crucial and essential. This EP has always been one of the 'tougher' WD records to track down with used copies and white labels changing hands for big money, a must for any fans of this sound. If you like your music rough, tough, deep and no nonsense, then this one's for you!

The EP is presented again, in its full 1991 form with all 4 cuts intact. No edits, no remixes, just the pure unadulterated WD vibe, featuring original label artwork tweaked by Atelier Superplus and lovingly remastered by Optimum Mastering, Bristol, UK. Special thanks to Nicky Trax & Tony Addis. Proudly distributed by Above Board distribution. 2018.

A special and personal release for Verdant Recordings as label boss Andy Green curates some favourite producers onto a double pack of deep, melodic techno with dub overtones. 'Verdant' is fusion of colours and sounds to fall into maintaining the labels now established aesthetic Presented in full printed sleeve with artwork by Ulf and Fleur - first 100 copies contain unique and individual art by them.

Dark and futuristic playful mix of old and new sounds
Without a doubt, Manfredi Romano (aka DJ Tennis) is a busy man. Co-founder and partner of Life and Death, a DJ with a full schedule and someone who still always has his fingers (and mind) in multiple projects and multiple places at the same time. How he juggles it (or when he sleeps) are questions best not pondered. One thing those who know him well have surely noticed is that he does it all while constantly on the move. Unfazed by the constant whirl of cities that pass him by, he somehow manages to remain focused throughout. No matter where he goes, he somehow always manages to remain local.

The collection of tracks on this double EP reflects that. Conceived and written in different cities (Miami, Milan, London, Brooklyn, Berlin and Palermo), each track captures both something of the place of conception and something of Romano's relationship to it. Not a travelogue per se but more an emotional love letter to all these many places he calls home.

Whether it's the plaintive call of Lovechild (featuring The Rapture's Luke Jenner), the dark and futuristic journey of Floating Boy (Self Portrait), the playful mix of old and new sounds found in Williamsburg, the techno indie mix that is Ah! Isobel, the ethereal trip of Anatomy or the indie-rock love song from the afterlife called You Close My Eyes, all these tracks are diverse and yet distinctly derive from a singular mind and personality. It's as if it's not just a collection of music but rather an introduction to the personality of DJ Tennis himself.

Rounding out the release is an ecstatic remix of Anatomy by the elusive producer from Michigan known as North Lake and on the digital release is Shorts for Tiger, a song written in celebration of a friend lost too young. In fact, all of the songs here are deeply personal and this EP shows it, as Manfredi Romano welcomes you in to meet him.

Local will be released on double vinyl and in digital format with slightly different versions found between the two formats.

4 gorgeous remixes by Deadbeat,Fred P,Rndm + Efdemin himself make the wintertime starting extremely hot.

Facundo has been at every party this summer without actually leaving his home of Buenos Aires.
His music sound tracking blissful moments with eyes closed. Broad smiles. Hands up.
Hips wiggling.
For his first single release on the label there's a beautiful range of energies and feeling.
Each track a gentle giant. On laptop speakers you might not feel the tension or impact these tracks have, time and time again, delivered. Hypnotic. Dreamy.
Perfect examples of our sound.

Facundo Mohrr's star, no, cloud, is on the rise.

Love, Leee.

Attention long-time Inner Sunset Recordings fans, collectors, newcomers, and anyone who might have missed getting their hands on these tracks the first time around! In response to ongoing public interest and demand, Inner Sunset Recordings is proud to announce a special 4-track E.P. that features classic works and underground dance club favorites from the earliest years of the label's existence nearly a decade and a half ago! 'I.S.R. Classics: A Reflection on the S.F. Aughts' is a 12' record that fiercely epitomizes the Inner Sunset Recordings sound and showcases some of the most loved and most highly sought after works (all remastered!) from releases: ISR1201, ISR1202, ISR1204, and ISR1205.

Fina's next release comes from Mathew Ferness, an exciting and already hotly tipped rising star for just his second ever EP. It features three tracks that showcase his musical house style with a remix from Helsinki's Saine.

Ferness hails from a small town near Montreal in Quebec, where he was an outcast obsessed with music. With no access to record shops, parties or scenes Mathew started taking matters into his own hands DJing in his teens taking inspiration from J Dilla, he soon began producing his own beats on a sampler and drum machine.

An exploration of analogue sounds, DAWS and most recently electronic music have all lead him to the rich sound he has now. His last EP on Beat changers was championed by Rhythm Section International and Radio 1 tastemaker Bradley Zero and this latest EP is likely to prove just as popular.

Pad laced opener 'Escapade' is a summery deep house jam with breezy acoustic guitar and warm, punchy drums of the sort to get any floor cutting loose. 'Solitude' is more paired back, with thoughtful piano keys laid over deep rolling drums. There is a musical romance and beauty to the synths that elevate this one above purely functional fodder, and then 'At First Sight' awakens your senses once more with broad synth smears and perfectly rough-edged drums which create pure deep house soul.

Saine is a producer with a range that goes from hazy hip hop to dusty house on labels like Odd Socks, Andy Hart's Voyage and this one before now. After his 2017 EP Mint, he returns with a remix that is bubbly and laden with colourful melodies and open-air house grooves.
This is EP full of rich house music that is for mind, body and soul.

in the past ten years lots of little and big stories happened in the music culture. house literally disappeared almost from the scene in order to come back as strong as never before. 

minimal morphed back into techno while leaving the question mark why the term minimal ever got invented. some originators like frankie knuckles or romanthony passed away, while others like larry heard just stopped to perform. 

in-between countless new artists appeared, twisted dance music with new perspectives on the old, and released their fresh ideas on even more countless labels out there in the void called music market. 

one of the rare platforms that stayed solid as a rock in all these years is mule musiq, the tokyo based label that spreads miscellaneous sound vibes that long from jazz to disco, house, and unobtrusive ambient since 2004. 

with a versatile artist roster consisting of producers such as henrik schwarz, lawrence, dj sprinkles, dj jus-ed, kuniyuki, eddie c, roedelius, or new kids on the blog like barnt or lord of the isles the japan based record company developed a status of her own for being one of the most free spirited organisations in contemporary music. 

'if the music is good, any kind of music is welcome. i don't like labels which release one style music.' 

mule musiq's mastermind toshiya kawasaki once said in a rare interview. now he celebrates a ten years of freedom jubilee with the sixth instalment of his famed 'i'm starting to feel ok' compilation serial.  a real massive international anniversary celebration that is ventilating all what happened in the past ten years in order to form something that travels right into the future. and that is where mule musiq tries to be since a decade to tell some unheard musical stories that stay for good even when the future is long past.

Dear Voluptuaries,
for the second time Ramona welcomes Orson Wells in her realm of pleasure. After one fantastic tripped-out debut-EP 'Never Lonely No More' in 2013, the Frankfurt youngster manages to inflame Ramonas attention once again with his following futuristic dream-house-EP called 'Open Light'. Four tracks no one should miss out on having at home presse the darkest and possibly the lustiest of all the treats. Mister Wells invites Ramona on a trip to another dimension wher sounds of the past are the columns of a neo-transcendental audio-vision in all the shiniest and broadest colors one can imagine. In this future no one dances alone.
Be prepared,
Ramona

Urulu Returns From His Travels To Namek With This Warm And Colourful Sound-set For Voyage.

Taken from the well-received 'Comedic Afrika' CD, which was Produced and Compiled by Joaquin Joe Claussell, Cosmicdelic Afrika PT1 is a collection of (demos) that Joaquin has been in the studio working on in his spare time. The Vinyl format PT1 consists mostly of extended Edits and Overdubs from the CD. The Part 2 of the series will feature the original Joaquin Claussell compositions. PT 2 is stated for a release that will follow shortly after the Cosmicdelic Afrika PT1 release. Similar the previously released CD, the vinyl version will include musical jewels such as Amadou et Miriam's 'Bara' which is no longer available on Vinyl and going for big bucks on the open market- that is if you can find a copy.

GMUF006 is produced by beat butcher RADE. He dedicates this EP to our friend kenan who became proud father. BIG DADDY KEEN btw Aamir bring back the CDJ !!!"

Rico Casazza is an electronic producer, DJ & teacher, based in London. Having produced music for over 11 years, he has established a solid musical identity with releases on labels such as Soma, Archipel, Plastic City & Wiggle. Following his killer 'They Move Fast' EP on Beef last summer, we now welcome him back for his first 12" with us. The productions are unique but you can tell they are from the same magical Casazza signature...raw acidity, enslaving basslines and subtle percussion.

The EP kicks off at a measured pace with 'Yurican', whose self-assured acid line sits wonderfully alongside the track's reflective atmospheres. 'Argue' then evolves this acidic energy, still praying to the sky but pumping its fist higher than before....laying the patchwork for the final original on the 12", the euphoric dance floor obliterator, 'Macabre'. To finish, bringing your heart rate down with caution, Dirscen has provided a drugged out remix of 'End 2016'.

Young Irish-producer Rebuke continues his rapid ascent to the top with two original productions on Hot Creations, primed and ready for the dancefloor.

Rebuke recalls being worried that Along Came Polly may have been perceived as being 'a bit too weird', but once it caught the attention of Jamie Jones, there was no stopping it. He says that the hype surrounding this EP 'is something I've never experienced before...and it always get a great reaction'.

On Along Came Polly, Rebuke showcases his innate ability to craft a weirdly, wonderful slice of techno. On the B-side, Rolo is a much housier affair, weaving together a bouncier bassline and sultry vocal stab.

The alias of Reuben Keeney, Rebuke, has only been in business for a short while, but his efforts have already proved to be fruitful. He has garnered support from the likes of Nic Fanciulli and released on labels including Saved and DFTD, as well as having a successful club night under his belt, where highly regarded names such as Camelphat, Darius Syrossian, Ejeca and Huxley have all played.

Hailing from Nova Scotia and based in Detroit, Rob Mansel aka Black Noi$e is best known for his hip hop and experimental production. For his vinyl debut on Vanity Press he goes in a different direction.

300 pink 10" records, single press, hand stamped, individually numbered. Two dancefloor bangers that Tusk has been hammering since the beginning of summer.

BOMB! Late support from Lillavobos, Culiano, The Tarminez Sisters, Mionel Lessi and others. Digital only, no vinyl bullshit!

Making unstoppable waves within the electronic music world over the last few years, Greek artist Argy's expertly produced and hypnotic productions are combined with an innate ability to create seductive and highly strung soundscapes during his DJ performances.

Dagfest in English means 'Day Party' and is comprised of Sweet Swedes, Patricio Cabezas and Mats Lundgren. The duo professes their love for cosmic stickiness in all its trappings between these two originals.

Lovedancing only saw it fit to pair these with the electro-infused funk of Tom Noble and the groovy bump of label head, Sleazy McQueen. We think it will certainly rock your Dagfest.

Subconscious Algorithms release their second transmission from man machine Derek Carr. - SA002 - follows on from Derek's groundbreaking album on Subwax.
Infusing a cosmic sense of rhythm and timeless emotional melodies.
Deep Motor City music for the Future from Subconscious Algorithms.

Days & Times Debuts With Their First Vinyl Release. After 9 Digital Releases We Decided To Represent Our Sound On Our Most Loved Medium. From Funky Fresh Nu Disco, Over Sample Styled- To Jazzy Deep House.this 4 Tracker Is Limited To Vinyl Only, We Wont Release It Digital!

After a few years away from the scene Modern Heads aka Dino Sabatini & Gianluca Meloni are back with a new 12 'Chapter II' . The second chapter of an adventure that began in 2001 in a basement in Rome, a journey through various labels - Elettronica Romana, Dozzy Records and Stroboscopic Artefacts. The duo comes up with a vinyl 12 of two tracks - A . Beginning - the track which this new 12 is based around - a feeling of space, harmony, and distant tribal references B - Unknown Route - you can use this track as a tool - acidic and sharp

Moving towards faster bpms and with some fresh faces Cong Burn's fourth 12" is a step into new ground for the young collective. A1 sees St Petersburg's Flaty follow up his Gost Zvuk 2xLP with some twisted electro. At A2 Lack shifts gears to an early doors stomper. Chekov's B1 showcases the Leeds producer's hypnotic side. While the B2 is closed out by Martin Stromstedt aka Martinou with a lengthy trip floating on airy pads and a subtle groove.

ELLEN ALLIEN's work LISm is already being referred to as a milestone in the label's history: rarely has an album from the circle of BPC artists deviated so far from the club context as LISm. The label boss has radically disposed of all established musical templates and created space for 45 minutes of sonic experiments that lie well beyond any functional paradigm - a highly emotional soundtrack for one's "inner cinema", but also a creative process with a considerable fun factor.

Kapote is back with a new EP. The Berlin based head of Toy Tonics, passionate vinyl digger and DJ comes back with 3 new tracks. As always the Kapote's music is hard to file under one genre. "I hate clichees in dance music" he says. "My DJ sets are never committed to just one style and so i want my EPs to be more open than most DJ records are."

Gerd Janson and Phillip Lauer are creatures of habit. Every week, the two club veterans meet up at Phillip's studio and spend an entire day making tunes. And while Gerd often likes to joke that his role in the arrangement is limited to making coffee and looking at his cell phone, it's clear that the two men have forged a potent partnership, one that's been responsible for an astonishing amount of dancefloor heat over the past few years.

Incredibly, this German pair has managed to maintain a relatively low profile, despite the steady stream of music they've released via well-respected labels like Unterton, Delsin, Internasjonal, Permanent Vacation and Live at Robert Johnson. And then there are the remixes—Azari & III, Scuba, The Juan Maclean, Fort Romeau, Avalon Emerson, Massimiliano Pagliara and Sinkane are just a small sampling of the artists who've enlisted Tuff City Kids to work their studio magic.

Throughout it all, there have been whispers of a proper Tuff City Kids album, and now that Adoldesscent has arrived, it will be all but impossible for the duo to linger in the background. After all, the LP is anything but shy—thanks in part to hooky vocal turns from the likes of Annie, Joe Goddard, Kelley Polar and Jasnau—and even the album's instrumental cuts feature some clear nods to various eras of dance-pop, from the boogie-inflected funk of 'Wake People' to the breakbeat techno of 'Boilered' and the tweaky rave nostalgia of 'Nordo.' Elsewhere, first single 'Labyrinth' is an infectious bit of new wave, while the guitar-driven 'Scared' recalls the gloomier side of '80s pop and 'Tell Me' is perhaps the record's most playfully soulful moment.

DJs will likely gravitate toward the darting strings of 'Aska' and breezy vibes of 'Farewell House,' yet Adoldesscent isn't entirely focused on the dancefloor. Dreamy opener 'Ophmar' evokes the legacy of John Carpenter, while the crunchy 'R-Mancer' offers up a sort of psychedelic synth freakout.

Much like the Tuff City Kids themselves, Adoldesscent isn't about any one style or sound in particular. It is, however, a cohesive effort, along with proof that the different corners of the electronic spectrum have a lot more in common than we'd all like to admit. More importantly, it's a whole lot of fun, and isn't that what dance music is supposed to be about anyways

Coming soon will be a very special 7inch edit of the highly sought-after
Joe Claussell Remix of Awade. On the flip side will be another unreleased gem
taken from the Instant House Archives titled Drum Box.
This will be a very limited 7inch so don't sleep...

Interstate is coming through with love infused house EP

Hot on the heels of his solo debut 'Berberian Nights EP', Larry Houl brings a moody summer warmth over to Red Ember this holiday season with three cuts of purist deep house. Harking back to the sound of our beloved Chicago House originators, the Frenchman squarely shoots for the heart and soul of dance-floor romantics.
