House Vinyl New Releases - News

The "Time Crisis" EP for Portage Garage Sounds continues his forward-thinking, genre bending productions expressed in his first dance 12" released earlier this year on Vanity Press. Beginning the EP, "Fight Riff" is boxing stance aquatic footwork. Next, "Creepy Crawlers" is exactly what it's titled. Side B starts with "232", the most emotional song of the year (2017). And "V98.7" Still smooth.

Find Your Own Records launches with Ceri's 'Life Holstee E.P.' and includes a Fred P Reshape.A strong debut for this new label, a record that fuses the darker and deeper sounds of Detroit, Berlin and London.Fred P aka Black Jazz Consortium delivers a timeless remix, his reshape of the title track tantalises the drum grooves, adds his trademark atmospheric ethereal synths and reworks the bass in such a way that is unexpected yet astounding.The B side 'We Do' is the deeper of the three tracks, fusing mysterious vocal stabs with minimal funky drums and deep rolling bass.Whilst the music is at times deep and dark, the message of the EP is positive, the title track drawing it's inspiration from the Holstee Manifesto, a manifesto that producer Ceri aspires to live by. This message is echoed by the lyrical content of the vocal snippets used in 'Life Holstee'. This is juxtaposed with haunting eerie moog synths, alongside variating funky analog drum rhythms and sub-bass.

With early support for the label coming in from the likes of Mr. G, D'Julz, Paranoid London and more besides, Find Your Own Records is off to a flying start, we can't wait to see what else they have in store for the future.

Demuja joins the Madhouse roster this March with 'Come To Me', a four track EP featuring French/Australian singer Ladybird and a Folamour remix of the title track.

After various releases on the likes of Nervous Records, RTCT Records, and his own label MUJA, Austria's Bernhard Weiss aka Demuja joins Madhouse with some fresh material following last year's output on House Puff and Freerange.

The release opens with title track 'Come To Me', a rough and ready Lo-Fi number featuring a soulful sample, and blissful stabs of horns and strings. Following is the Folamour's 'Lost In Eden' remix, twisting the original into a Balearic, sun-drenched vibe, contrasting the original and bringing a more funk-infused, melodious feel to things.

Up next is the second original on the release 'Take' which employs classic house tropes with a nod to the 90s via catchy horns and a New Jersey Garage/House beat. 'Free Me feat Ladybird' then closes the package, taking you on a silky smooth house journey, with Ladybirds dazzling vocals taking center stage.

The third (& final) instalment of DJ Deeon's unreleased and archival EP's is here! In the spirit of the previous 2 we've asked the man to dig into his tapes for those rare and raw cuts that the make the heads salivate! Kicking things off in fine style is Deeon's take on of 'Let it be house' from 1997, included here is a longer, unreleased mix of this absolutely banging near-cover version of Mike Dunn's perennial Chicago classic. This one is sure to do damage, a booming call to arms for the soldiers of house nation! Essential business. 'Exta-C' is up next, according to Deeon himself this is one he constantly gets asked about so it made sense for it to be back out there on the streets. Pure, unadulterated jacking zone material, funky as f*ck and unforgiving. A surefire winner in the dance! 'Kurokin Push' starts proceedings on side-b, a manic acid tinged killer with a bassline that oozes funk. Swinging in all the right ways this jam is destined to be big and sits nicely with all the other rare as hens teeth selections on the EP. Deeon fans will not be disappointed! Next up we have the infamous 'Boody Mover' from 1997, remastered straight offa the DAT! A sly nod to Jack Frost's acid classic 'Dap Me'. We felt this one sits nicely (no pun intended) in amongst the other cuts on this EP, some vintage ghetto DM sh*t right here, storming! 'if this don't make your booty move your booty must be dead'! Last, and certainly not least, we have Deeon's 'Low end theory' project from 1995 giving us 'Wicked', a demented acid track that tweaks in all the right places! A perfect finisher to this 5 cut monster of an EP showcasing one of the pioneers of this sound. All in all, a collection of essential jams for the freaks here, snooze ye not! Every track on here has been remastered and repressed with the full consent and involvement of DJ Deeon and Parris Mitchell, selected and programmed from Deeon's private archives and DAT tapes for Above Board, London. 100% hater free.

Peter Kremeier, AKA Losoul, has always been an artist we've greatly admired here at Hypercolour, so it's a real thrill to have him on the label at long last. A huge catalogue of eclectic, distinctive and funky music for labels like Playhouse, Moodmusic and Freak 'n' Chic, Losoul turns in two exceptional tracks on the 'Slowly Turning' release here.
'Daddy, What's A Rise' is classic Losoul; a heavy low slung groove never lets up, with micro disco stabs and distant vocal snippets, looping round and round for over 10 minutes, but without ever standing still, the filtering and deft touches keep things moving at just the right funky pace.
B side cut 'Time & Space' is a glitchy and dubbed out affair, a solid 4/4 beat underpins a myriad of delayed percussion and panning synths, spatial effects and an incessant chord stab, head music for the heads indeed!
Losoul contributes to the Hypercolour resurgence that has pulled in left of center releases from the likes of Eliphino, West Norwood Cassette Library, Will Azada and Maya Jane Coles over recent months, with plenty more goodies lined up for the coming months ahead.

Four acid-filtered, metal disco killers from the enigmatic Michael Ferragosto, gear to keep that Chicago Muzique shit alive and well.Hear from the horse's mouth: Man...this is the pure shit... pure house experiments are the only motherfucking thing that sounds real these days on the floor.know what I mean

Zum Langspielformat zurückkehrend nach dem hochgelobten 2012er Album HOTEL ALMOUR (KOMPAKT 248 CD 95), präsentiert das offene Bandprojekt TERRANOVA (alias DJ/Produzenten-Duo Fetisch und &ME) mit RESTLESS ein neues Meisterwerk - eine famos aufeinander abgestimmte Sammlung von erfrischend direkten House-Schiebern sowie eine brilliante Studie über Gravitationskräfte. Wie schon die vorangegangenen Releases wurde das Album nach Manier des sogenannten "liquid Terranova Soundsystems" produziert - eine lässige Mische von Instrumental- und Vocaltracks, mit alten und neuen Freunden eingespielt. Für "Restless" sah sich diese globale Familie von Seelen- und Rhythmusverwandten durch CATH COFFEY, LYDMOR, BON HOMME, STEREO MCS und MANDEL TURNER vertreten - alle im erbaulichen House-Irrsinn badend, der ein Markenzeichen von Terranova ist. Als Mittelpunkt eines ständig changierenden Koop-Konsortiums haben Fetisch und &ME sich eine Aufgeschlossenheit bewahrt, die ihnen bei der Produktion von kosmischen Grooves und beflügelten Melodien zugute kommt.

Inspiriert von sowohl interpersonellen als auch interstellaren Reisen, hätte man für RESTLESS keinen besseren Namen finden können - dank konstantem Drang nach vorne, niemals auch nur ein Quäntchen an Schwung zwischen den Abflügen verlierend. Nach der sorgfältig verfeinerten Panoramarezeptur des hauptsächlich in Paris produzierten HOTEL AMOUR folgt nun gewissermaßen das Berlin-Album, aufgenommen zwischen November 2014 und Januar 2015 im Winter der Hauptstadt, in Schlafzimmern und auf dem Weg, zusammengemischt im Weddinger Studio von Keinemusik. Zeit oder Gnade für analoges, irgendwie-vintage-mäßiges Nerdtum kannte man dabei nicht - und macht erst recht keine Anstalten den gewissen Stolz über die Arbeit an leicht verranzten Laptops der vorletzten Generation zu verbergen. Das hält die Beats geschmeidig und die Flächen auf den Punkt.

a splashing, refreshing new series from RSS Disco's Mireia Records. On this second entry Marcus Worgull and Johannes Klingebiel scout out the most euphoric and simultaneously intimate moments of the night. Double A! Visually, Mireia records is always on the lookout for the extraordinary. We'll Sea' offers beautifully marbled turquoise vinyl, housed in a heavy clear sleeve, hand stamped labels and a sticker. Sales Points - you know Marcus from his work as a part of Innervisions and the band Vermont (together with Motor City Drum Ensemble) - you know Johannes from his hit-release Nightlife' on Mireia Records earlier this year and the bands Vimes and C.A.R. you know the record is going to be great

Ein definitives Label-Highlight und Überraschungsbestseller aus unserem 2014er Programm, hat VERMONT's gleichnamiger
Langspieler (KOMPAKT 293 CD 114) bereits eine wunderbar psychedelisch angehauchte Remix-EP von dem einzigartigen Prins Thomas hervorgebracht (KOMPAKT 307). Nach dessen
erlesener Disko-Magie folgen nun die Tanzflurkenner MANO LE TOUGH, DJ TENNIS und Vermont's MARCUS WORGULL
höchstpersönlich, um Hand an das eher ungezwungene Quellmaterial zu legen und einen jeweils eigenen Dreh zu finden.
Der irisch-stämmige Shootingstar MANO LE TOUGH steuert seinen warmen und melodischen, doch immens treibenden Stil zu ÜBERSPRUNG bei - die locker sitzenden Sequenzen werden vom Kopf auf die Füsse gestellt, während dicke Synthie-Wolken die Skyline von Manos Neuinterpretation umkreisen. Fest verankert im robusten Beat-Fundament, liegt hier der Fokus auf
der schnittig umformulierten Melodie. Vermont-Mitstreiter MARCUS WORGULL wählt unterdessen einen entschieden federnden Ansatz und lässt in seinem Edit von ÜBERSPRUNG kein Delay allein zurück. Life And Deaths DJ TENNIS
schließlich gebührt die Ehre des letzten Tracks - er rundet diese zweite Runde von Vermont-Remixen mit einer Version von MAJESTÄT ab, dessen inhärente epische Breite mit
anspornenden Rhythmen und fein texturierten Synthesizern sogar noch verstärkt wird.

Whyte Numbers follows through with an excoursion to Georgia, where we found the mysterious Will Gates. On his debut EP, dedicated to his hometown Tbilisi, you´ll find 4 original cuts with no frills, plus a mellow acidic vibe workout by our man Lootbeg. The record
is sure to grab any listeners ear with mellow house featuring a host of fresh jazz and hip hop influences. Adding to a beautiful use of vocal loops, he brings forth a refreshing piece of wax that creates another home run for both label and artist.

More raw, stripped back, jackin' Chicago sounds from deep within the vaults of DJ International for RSD.
Chip E's seminal 'Like This' originally from 1985 is one of the most recognizable & loved records from the first wave of House & is an all-time classic. A rhythm track' anthem is based upon ESG's Moody, this still rocks a dancefloor today!

Reissued in conjunction with the rights holders.

Portuguese artist Ka§par gives Parisian label Escapade its third release. The four tracks span across a wide range of electronic sounds, telling a story that calls on many emotions. 'Wail Of A Loon' opens the record with an experimental atmosphere. After this laid back introduction, Ka§par goes into a much stronger style: 'Rigged's energy and catchy, twirling melody make it a total banger. On the B side, the mood gets much warmer and groovy. 'Vital' is the perfect tune to warm up a dancefloor, thanks to a swinging rhythm, mesmerizing vocal samples and funky synth lines. 'Alma D'Ouro' rounds up the record with strong jazzy vibes. Beautiful chords and piano solos never dissapoint!

Following on from the huge success of their last release together; Sirens, Mark Jenkyns is back under the Hot Creations umbrella alongside his longtime collaborator Mizbee. Allow us to introduce Soulfood EP. The four track release also features a vocal appearance from profound lyricist Sheff and a remix by tech house virtuoso Inxec.

Typical of Hot Creations, Jenkyns opens the EP with a dynamic beat. Questions feat. Sheff is a funky, fierce anthem brimming with catchy melodies and arousing vocals. Relish in Northern singer/songwriter Mizbee's charming vocals as she guides us through the bustling second track; Soulfood. There's something about Mizbee and her stunning voice, encased in a compelling bassline and jazzy piano tunes, her pleasing lyrics flow throughout Heated. Inxec brings his special touch to his Questions Remix, a lively take on the original, complete with resounding horns and a mid-way vocal breakdown.

When asked about the EP Jenkyns remarked: "I feel this EP is food for the soul, it has something for everyone, grooves a plenty and jam packed full of great vibes!", and what a delicious meal it is. 2018 is set to be an exciting year for Newcastle-born Jenkyns, with an array of tracks set to be released this year on the likes of Desert Hearts, VIVa, Cajual and Resonance Records. Fellow Geordie Mizbee has an exciting year as she puts the finishing touches to her highly anticipated first album. Sheff, hailing from the Midlands has had a pious musical career beginning as an editor before finding his calling in electronic music. Remixer Inxec boasts support from some of the scene's biggest names including Sasha, Lee Burridge and Craig Richards.

Medlar returns to WOLF with a killer EP.

first release on the new cat. white limited (hand numbered) series by the duo Ruff Stuff.

Legendary Los Hermanos member Santiago Salazar's album 'Aspirations For Young Xol' is given a vinyl release courtesy of Rekids.

A heartfelt dedication to his son Isaias, 'Aspirations for Young Xol' takes us through the life of a pillar in the electronic music community - Santiago Salazar. From his formative years spent in California to his connection with Detroit and the passing of a childhood friend, the long-player's tracks signpost the musician's significant experiences, both positive and negative. This meaningful body of work was released digitally on Pastel Voids and now Rekids release the album on wax.

'Saturated Fear' sets a deep tone for the LP, flanging melodies and echoing claps float through the composition before the album's title track 'Aspirations for Young Xol' offers haunting arpeggios with occasional acidic overtones which are cleverly offset by beautifully designed lead synth transitions. 'Bloodlines' follows a similar musical vein with delayed bass riffs that are suspended above shimmering hihats and a weighted kick.

Santiago provides three beatless pieces throughout, which digress into more emotional territory whilst offering brief respite from his heavier drum work. 'Xol's Pain' combines orchestral strings and swelling synthesisers which build tension with a subtly complex, evolving motif. Both 'Dark Matter' and 'Ode to Stinson' use arresting atmospheres, warped arpeggios and ethereal pads which lull the listener into a retrospective mood.

An intensity builds in the later tracks, a gritty but powerful low end provides a solid foundation in 'Orange Blossom Thump', eventually making way for a hectic and elastic lead synth before 'Pachuco Dub' displays drones that build a dissonant pressure in which the complex tom rhythms and rolling hi hats can grow. 'Sarah Rivera' hypnotises with its delectable chord progressions and complimentary melodies which seem to float above a rigid drum composition to close the album with style.

Collector's Edition, One-Sided, Marbled Color Vinyl, Limited Edition

Eric Estornel's Lone Romantic releases "Anomaly", the new EP of the veteran English-born, France-based producer Carl Finlow.
"Anomaly" is the 3rd instalment, following Estornel's Maceo Plex album "Solar" and the return of his Mariel Ito alias with the "2e Komst" EP, remarking the distinct sound of the label once again, while pushing a step forward at the same time.

With the relaunch of Mariel Ito, the electro and IDM alias of Estornel, that was active in the early 2000s with releases on Modern Love or SCSI-AV and that will see a retrospective album from that time on R&S Records, Lone Romantic is a new suitable platform for Carl's music. However, from the 90s until today, his vast catalog traverses through the most relevant labels out there such as Warp, Soma, Klang, SCSI-AV, Novamute, Satamile, Electrix and his own 2020 Vision.

"Anomaly' is a four-tracker showcasing classic electro schemes with ease. A frenetic mysticism and a meditative melancholy stand behind the most innovative trajectories of funk, within a mood much divergent than the usual conservative reverence towards the genre.

Laesh another newcomer to Roots For Bloom delivers a club ready three tracker with ripples of early sneak influences and robsoul-ish vibes. All three run on a similar tip relying on samples fresh and more well known alike but all three will do the job on the floors.

Alex Ferrazzi and Matteo Keemani a.k.a. Blue Mondays, longtime Laterra friends and collaborators (with releases on Sonar Kollektiv, Rebirth, Snatch!,Memento, Manocalda as well), strike again. They do it, as usual, their very own way: shades of Balearic flavours in there, but with a very dark and malicious twist. Marvin & Guy add some disco nuances (keeping it raw and obscure, though), while Nick Anthony Simoncino delivers a solid, strict, gloomy dancefloor affair. No frills, mad quality.

First in a three part series by Frits Wentink, presented in a hand stamped picture sleeve.

Back in 90's San Francisco; Scott, Gavin and Robbie Hardkiss helped pioneer the American Underground scene with their club nights, warehouse parties and groundbreaking record label. They forged a new direction for dance music with a string of vinyl releases by Hawke, God Within, Little Wing and Rabbit In The Moon, culminating in the seminal compilation Delusions Of Grandeur released in 1995. Delusions Of Grandeur made the Billboard Dance charts, went to #1 on the Rolling Stone Alternative Album chart and launched the international DJ/production careers of the Hardkiss brothers.

In 2018 to celebrate the 20th anniversary, the album was remastered and re-released with this new vinyl.

Next up in the 'Apparel Music Limited' series is Loure with a 4 track EP which also includes a remix by Saine. The name of this work by the Aussie is 'Smooth Talk' and it contains all the stylistic elements that make the Melbournian one of the most talented in the scene at the moment. The EP kicks off with the title track which can be certified as a dancefloor banger with its solid rhythmics and the 'smooth' synths playing along with a hint of acid; keeps going with Mutual Motion which gives a display of what this guy can do in terms of creating spacey deep harmonies, such a groovy way to lower the tones before The remix of the 1st track 'Smooth Talk'. Saine here puts his signature once again with another banging tune crafted on Loure sounds, adding his touch with deep percussions, a substantial compact beat with a Bass-line that will get you carried away. The closing track is the right decompression after a journey through sounds: rolling snares, vocal samples chasing each other and a happy touch to finish in style.

Moby releases a super limited one off coloured vinyl pressing of 'Play B-sides', via his Litttle Idiot imprint'. First time this has ever been pressed on vinyl. Featuring tracks from Moby's multimillion selling 'Play' era. 'Play B-sides' includes some lost treasures and some of Moby's Best works, including the global hit Flower.

About this release *First 10 tracks only come with the limited edition Nijmegen's ESHU welcomes co-founder Ivano Tetelepta for his first solo release on the label. It is also the imprint's first full length, but Tetelepta's second album after the hypnotic drum workout that was True Colours, his debut on Fear of Flying in 2012. It comes as a double vinyl release with the first disc being limited, and finds the producer casting himself free from the dance floor and serving up a beautifully atmospheric soundtrack that would be a perfect companion for a nature documentary. When making EPs and 12"s, Tetelepta's smooth and infectious drums are always front and centre in his work, whether solo or as producing with label mates under the ESHU alias. He's also worked with labels like Siena and KERING, but here he shows another side that focusses on short pieces, melody and blissful sound design. To give this album its perfectly warm analogue sound, the whole thing was recorded via cassette and revox tape. The first ten tracks are short, immersive musical worlds with poignant chords and glistening melodies. Some twinkle and shimmer, some sound like an underwater eco system coming to life, and others seem to come from deepest space where solar winds and sonar pulses pass you by. It's cinematic and evocative stuff that takes you away from the here and now and into a different realm. The four tracks on disc two then start with Senang, a suspensory and multi-layered piece of music that has keys, modulations and samples wrapping all around you before Whistle Of Patience has a supple minimal drum line that slowly gets under your skin. Ede 2 Nijmegen is then a turbulent dub track which builds a darker mood before closer De Test sinks back into supple, rubbery and warm drums laced up with hypnotic pads that circle all around. This is an ambitious album of meditative music that offers a beautiful place to lose your mind.

2nd release of Botanic Minds Sunset Series. 12" 180g Vinyl Only. Early support by Raresh, Priku, Suciu, Cap.

The SHAG Edits return on Roots For Bloom with volume 5. label boss Jamie Trench starts things off with "Where The Party At" which reaches in to a hip hop flavour with that 90s sample feel. Reece Johnson rounds off the A side with a disco style cut that will bring the boogie to any floor. The B side sees the label welcome more newcomers in Bristol's J.Morrison and the mysterious G.Markus. Brown Eyes sees that 70s style funk brought to the table and BING! is a more house affair with a rolling feel to it.

Conoley Ospovat, having crossed paths with deep heads like Pier Bucci, Pablo Bolivar, and Area, now turns up with a fully-realized EP for Kimochi. Solitude is a pulsing meditation, but with the rays of sunshine breaking throughout, it's clear that if it's alone, it's not lonely. The springtime sounds are full of optimism as well as introspection. Ambient house for the adventurous.

For house heads of a certain persuasion, DJ Duke is a name that resonates for all the right reasons. The U.S. veteran has been responsible for some of the 90's most seminal moments, chiefly through tracks such as '12 Minutes to Do It' (under his Pleasure Dome alias), 'Party Time' and the Prosumer-endorsed deep house classic, 'Heard'. He returns here courtesy of emerging imprint Solo Werks, who host his latest EP, 'Green Pastures'. A momentous house-led workout, it compounds Duke's reputation as a producer of considerable panache while also acting as an auspicious start to life for the Dublin based label.

The title track is a grainy, old-school cut that bears all the hallmarks of a dusty analogue-jam and harks back to the days of vintage Chicago with the sort of zest you'd expect from a man of Duke's credentials. The other original, 'Skyscapes', is packed to the brim with industrial motifs and is characterised by the sort of effortlessly catchy baseline with which Duke has made his name. Mysterious and ethereal, it takes the listener on an uncompromising and throughly captivating house journey from the off.

On the flip side, we have two stunning remixes, the first of which arrives from New Jersey don, Ruben Candelario AKA Nicuri. A long-time favourite of NYC-based producers a la Joey Anderson, Nicuri turns 'Green Pastures' into a dreamy, acid-led space, adding layers of suspense and a glittering vocal intto the mix as he goes. Last but not least are Dublin-based producers Slowburn, who serve up a stunning version of "Skyscapes". A carefully construed voyage into the deep, it caps off a fine EP with some aplomb.

Ensuring they keep things pushing forwards while also celebrating their past, Vibraphone call upon rising talent Gemil to deliver an EP that is purely fresh material. "Forces & Gravity" is perfectly honed to get the maximum response from the dance with its muscular production and catchy vocal sample, but if you want an even more focused affair the remix strips things down to the bare necessities and works just as effectively. On the B side "Horizon" gets a touch more playful in its synth work with interplaying riffs creating a dazzling whole, and then "Solar Storm" brings the heads-down, hard-swinging heaviness into the mix in a
devastating finishing blow.

Very cool ep from Skatebard on Vivod ! A mixed bag from the prolific Norwegian producer showing us why he's still at the top of his game. Maskindans kicks things off with some speak & spell funk followed by Hissige Helger, a brooding Chicago style banger sure to tear up some discoteques across the planet.
On the flip are Langbolgen and Gloymde Skogar. The former is an acid style work out, the latter is more of a subtle, hypnotyizing opus. All very strong tracks. Don't sleep on this. They will go fast !
