House Vinyl New Releases - News

The Strange Days sage closes

limited repress !

1st release of new French label Plaisir Records by the artist Zendid, with a VID remix !!
Support: tINI, Faster, Anthea, Ada Kaleh, Raresh

Here, you're going to get into a serious classy bunch of tracks, where melodies interlace with round beats and basslines. The Wood Lesty's voice will enter your brain and will never leave it. The cherry on the cake (already rather tasty) is Vid Reconstruction Mix: a little 15 minutes diamond where he settles gradually his talent, involving the famous voice of the original mix with a compulsion of claps to end in second part of the remix with angelic choirs deserving of the most beautiful opera.

REPRESSED !!
Music for non-unified movement.

For those who dance and live to the beat of their own drum. A step towards more green spaces within our safe spaces.

A palette of sounds to make you feel all the emotions - without the need for clothing.

Stay Natural x

If there was any mild concern about maintaining our namesake, this next release should put them to bed.

Having been a big fan of Innershades productions since hammering 'That Girl' and 'Inside Your Mind' to death, it's pleasing to have found each other. Resulting in SIX absolute bangers from Belgium - from the trance chugger for that Weatherall warm up, to the acid thumper for your b2b with Hauff - we've got you covered.
Not only Belters by name..

On the back of Chip Wickham's fabulous debut album La Sombra come two quite different but equally mouthwatering remixes of two of its tunes. On the A-side, Detroit house stalwart extraordinaire Andrés grabs 'Red Planet' by the ear and drags it straight to the dance floor. And he means business: no beating around the bush with intros and the like - it's hands in the air and go from start to finish. Relentless.

The other A side, A.K.A. AA side, is for L.A.'s ambassador of avant-garde and spiritual music Carlos Niño. Rather than remixing the album's title track in the strict sense of the word, his 'Spaceways Radio Edit' adds a subtle and otherworldly flavour to it, extending the mix with some gorgeous ambient washes.

La Sombra (Lovemonk, January 2017) is Chip Wickham's first album after a 25-year career touring, recording and experimenting across three decades of jazz, funk, soul, hip-hop, Latin and electronica. It's a monumental record for Chip as it symbolises the moment he stepped out into the light as a director of his creations with freedom to explore his roots, express and tell his version of jazz, and pay testament to his heroes Roland Kirk, Yuseef Lateef & Harold McNair.

Dungeon Meat hit hard once again with a slammin' ep from another pioneer , a force that needs no introduction .... Mr G. It's our honour to present the Sweatbox E.P from a producer that has inspired us for many years with his prolific discography and his own Phoenix G imprint.Here he swings his axe between house and techno and delivers four killer cuts that represent the classic Mr G sound . A sound and style that effortlessly connects with the Dungeon Meat vibe... raw grooves and beefy beats aimed straight at the heart of the dance floor.

Laid back electro cuts from the Berlin based duo Nachtzug.

Yoshinori Hayashi visits an imaginary place and finds these two masterpieces, a lyrical one and a junglish one. On the other side the mysterious DB.Source in a tribal-dub mood, roundtrip ticket. Highly recommended!

INC. TUCCILLO, JONNY & TRAVIS REMIXES

Release number two on Pleasure wave comes from Jonny 5,known for his releases on the Bahnsteig label, here the edit meister delivers four tracks of cosmic goodness, adding synths and drums to the cut n paste..

klodio Rainbow Bridge EP Following the successful reception of klodio's debut EP, the Tokyo-based producer spent the year playing shows in Japan with various upcoming artists like Fulbert and label co-founder Alixkun, and taking part in disruptive events such as Pow Wow School of Music. When klodio decided it was time to start recording his second EP, he took a slightly different direction, going from Techno-influenced Detroit House to House-influenced Detroit Techno. "Shinagawa Sunrise" is a fast-paced retro-futuristic Jazz jam which climaxes on a fantastic sax solo by the young and talented Ilia Skibinsky. Daiba goes a step further in this Techno journey, flowing from glowing, light, syncopated chords to a dark and aggressive atmosphere, and back again to the relaxing chords. More polished, singular, deep, and yet aggressive than "Toktroit", "Rainbow Bridge EP" brings another stone in the Asia-infused universe that the French producer is bringing to the world of electronic music.

New music from the Swedish Junkyard guys. Mr Tophat and Art Alfie delivering two modern house jackers with a little touch of that nordic touch that aways seem to balance things and bring some open space in the music. Limited supplies!!

The much lauded No.19 Music serves up another excellent all Canadian affair for its next EP:behind it is producer & label co-owner Nitin, with remixes from live specialist The Mole and labelboss Jonny White aka Art Department who serves up his own hypnotic take on things.No.19 Music has been going back to its roots recently, bringing to the fore a steady stream ofincredible underground music from Torontos sons & daughters. 2016 closed out with thestandout single, Full Circle from Art Department in collaboration with AD/D, seeing supportacross the board for the return of Jonny Whites much loved moniker. However it is the longstanding partnership of White & Nitin that is the true central pillar of the No.19 story, and its thelatter that offers up here what is almost certainly his most impressive work to date.Nitin has spent 20 years deeply immersed in music, working as a DJ, producer, label owner andpromoter. He has a singular style that is fresh and forward thinking, fusing the deeper elements ofhouse and techno. As a DJ he has traversed the globe, playing everywhere from fabric toPanorama Bar, Warung to Output (NYC).Kicking off this heavweight package is the original of Sunday Grey, a beautifully atmospherictrack where rolling drums have you swaying as gentle synths pan left and right. A backdrop ofsubtle vinyl crackle sounds like waves breaking and adds to the soothing effect whilst the crispperc and dangling hi hats suck you further into the mix. Some tender and heartfelt chords gentlyjoin the picture in the second half and mark this one out as truly beautiful.In the accomplished remix from leading producer and label boss Art Department, things are moredirect and energetic. The drums are big and rubbery, the hi hats rip up the groove and the synthsare rounded and bulbous. Its a masterfully menacing version with cosmic keys adding colour andfinishing it in style. Wagon Repair and Perlon man and master live technician The Mole then getsto work by layering in waify synths, hiccuping drums and plenty of rich textures and intricatedetails that make for an infectious micro-groove.Last of all, Nitins absorbing Black Sand Beach is a soft and lush deep house affair with resonanthits, pinging drums and droning pads that are propulsive yet perfectly smooth and serene.This is a compelling and highly effective EP that shows Nitin for the true production talent that heis and is another signifier of the excitement building around the No.19 label once again.

Hailing from Lisbon, Portugal Sabre are delivering their debut release from Clone Royal Oak with a fresh take on house and techno. If you're looking for effective formular club tracks, then please skip through! Four playful and emotive tracks without any of the modern club dogma's, however strongly rooted in the more then 30 year long tradition of our musical culture. From Model 500's Detroit techno to even further back to the likes of Gottsching's electronics and Alice Coltrane's spiritual jazz. Sabre is giving us some personal music created from a subjective perspective evoking different kind of moods and emotions with their wide palette of sounds, rhythms and melodies. Even though this might be ''psychology for dummies'' you probably can say there is a heavy influence from their Portuguese culture and their hometown Lisbon. Warm sounding tracks with a cool (sea) breeze and some of the outgoing, yet laidback southern european character. But sticking to the facts... there is some wonderful and special music on this record!

The Dance is the result of a long lasting musical love affair between Kontra-Musik's Ulf Eriksson and Sebastian Mullaert (aka Minilogue). As most love affairs, it started off as an exciting experiment: Ulf would play records and Sebastian would bring out his music gear and play a live set. As they were touring with this live concept, their sounds started to really integrate, and after one especially fine night at Trouw, Amsterdam, Ulf and Sebastian decided it was time to conceive The Dance. Once the decision was taken, everything else came naturally. The Dance was to be recorded live, in one take, at Kontra-Musik's home field Inkonst, Malmo, Sweden.

Yes, yes, yes and yes, we knew because we felt it too! Boils n' Ghouls it's the god damn return of Unit Black Flight on Giallo Disco! (Pause for applause) 4 newly mastered tracks plus an exclusive remix from LA's night phantom Umberto. UBF's signatures are all over this: Classic Carpenter Worship, H.O.T.T. Linn Action, analog nightmares. Security camera blues. Perfect for late night missions or dancefloor destruction. Pain peeling from old wood, as the stairs creak and your EVP recordings have disappeared. Walls are moving, doors are switching location, there's a cold hand on yours. Welcome to our nightmare fiends... we're gonna have a blast.

Frisky and shifty, eski-beat cheeky, breaky and beaty against a backdrop of raw synthesis punctuated by tekken style karate chants. Undoubtedly Glowing Palms' most dance-floor-centric release yet. An artist previously released only on the legendary Ruf Kutz label; this producer is set to turn the climate from tribal to tropical.
Blip Discs has teamed up with this Manchester born sonic sorcerer for his well overdue first solo record since 2013! His inimitable sound of trancy synths and twinkly treats has earned support across the game yet again with everyone from Kornél Kovácz to Moxie championing these weighty yet joyful floor fillers.

Following a trio of stunning remixes for Infinity Ink, Bob Moses and Michel De Hey in recent weeks, Joris Voorn returns home to GREEN with his second solo release of 2016 in the form of The Great Esquape.Early support from BBC1 Pete Tong, Eelke Kleijn, Hernan Cattaneo, Guy J, and Kölsch amongst others.

Harking back to the sounds that first brought him to prominence, Esquape finds that perfect sweet spot between house and techno. Dreamy, delayed techy stabs slowly pull into focus over punchy kicks as shimmering hi-hat patterns rise into the mix, before a nagging resampled vocal hook and warm bass drop into play. Percussive fills and turbo-charged FX build the tension as we head into the break, the synth hook slowly developing as wide swathes of pads create atmospheric layers. It's a perfect end-of-summer track, and one whose blend of styles will make it work as well at a sun-drenched day party as it will in a peak-time arena.

On the flip, Orange is a deeper but equally stunning composition, centring around a sparkling synth arpeggio that filters up and down to provide moments of intensity and calm in equal measure. Deft percussion drives the track along as melancholic pads are drafted in atop a sumptuous, succinct bassline. It's an exercise in tension and restraint, the track threatening to swell to something grandiose before being sucked back into its plaintive core.

Wild Oats is proud to present Speed Of Life, a new record from London based producer K15. This 6 track double EP explores the idea of the sense of urgency that life can have depending on the frame of mind one is in. We encourage you take time to do some inner exploration to understand what the best use of your energy is in order to have the most harmonious experience you can have in your life.

Having a good balanced life starts with the physical and mental state you are in. What we consume on all levels whether orally, visually, sonically or tactilely influences how we think, feel, and react to our environment. This record is the perfect re-calibration tool using vibration to get your mind, body, and soul back into a balanced state. All the while, having a wonderful listening experience that will warm your heart, put a smile on your face, and make you dance.

For a short period in 1981 and with brand-new equipment such as Roland 808, SH 101, GR 500, we made some 8-track "just for fun" jam tapes. Mainly just to experiment for our own pleasure. From those sessions, only "White Horse" made it to a final treatment. The rest of the material was left behind, as our record company at the time found it too "different".

Landside is the collaboration between Italian producers Hunter/Game and the Icelandic band Kúra.
The sound draws as much from the deep vibe and

melancholy ambience of Kúra's reflective, dubby moods, as it does from the more insistent groove of Hunter/Game's dancefloor roots
Landside - Signs Of Change EP
Signs of Change is the fourth chapter of Landside's journey through diverse sound researches that cross over to industrial ambients, basslines and a whirling melody accompained by a crescendo of sonorities that won't release you from the flow.
Distance is a throw back voyage in a melodic orchestra of ethnic sonorities that elevate you to an esquisite and new dimension.
Luke Hess Remix, is a night bounce into into dub techno that will hypnotize you with its hazy yet enthralling use of vocals.
Kelpe Remix is a deep and intense dreamlike hazy trip, accopanied by trippy melodies that melt with the voices of the original track.

Blind Box Series has recently marked its fifth chapter and despite being just one year old, has established a firm and conscious musical identity, which clearly reflects label heads' common grounds.
In order to explore their musical background, Julien Sandre and Konstress proudly introduce Blind Box Basic, a new format to spread a more minimalistic approach to the dance floor.
First press comes from Chris Carrier, one of the label favorites kicking off the Basic Series with a classy three track EP, released under his highly appreciated alias 'Monsieur Georget'.

When titans collide! Moscow and FUSE bosses Archie Hamilton and Enzo Siragusa clash heads on MOSCOW020 bringing both of their influences to bear.
Ricochet is an unashamed terrace bomb which has been tried and tested by the boys all winter. Nothing complicated here, just big beats and tension-filled break that satisfies the dance-floor with the introduction of a familiar sounding old school hip-hop style lead. Dubby chords then switch the track up for a few bars before going back to business.
The flip opens with Transcend, an understated acid track perfect to keep things lively mid- set. The lead weaves it's way through the track whilst playing with a barely audible vocal
and plenty of groovy percussion.
The record closes with Dubinnovation - something quite different from either of the producers' usual styles. As the title suggests, the track takes influence from dub, using the sampled voice of Lee Scratch Perry. Rolling beats, rasping bass and mind warping effects make this the ultimate after party weapon.

White label with hand-stamped tracklist OVERVIEW: In a world over easy-come-easy-go overnight success stories, artists like Kiwi are a rare find. Steadily refining his skills as a DJ and producer since the mid 00's, whilst amassing a back-catalogue with labels such as Optimo, Disco Halal and Futureboogie, his trajectory encompasses an eclectic range of influences, making him something of a sonic wild card. With shards of disco, techno and fuzzy electronica always present, it's seems fully logical that he can count the likes of Erol Alkan, Andrew Weatherall and DJ Harvey as fans. Now, making his debut on Moda Black, Kiwi delivers a surreal trip that balances raw energy with e-moment goosebumps, perfectly backed up by remixes from cult favourites Lord of the Isles and Willie Burns

Large Music begins another chapter in it's celebrated history with the flagship release of a new vinyl series entitled Wax Weapons. We have seen many re-issues of classic releases over the last 12 months from the Large camp-but this time owner and founder Jeff Craven focuses on the new artists and fresh sounds that continue to elevate the label's stellar reputation. Four tracks to choose from here that all possess a unique Chicago flavor and are aimed squarely at the dance floor.

Third volume for this wonderful "Ibiza Sunset Dream" mix is selected by Dj Zappy with artists like Solomun, Bedouin, Hraach, Andre Rizo, Kellerkind, Dole & Kom, Junge Junge and many more

It's a long time since we last heard from dOP. The boys have been far from quiet, continuing to tour and enchant party people across the world with their infectious fusion of house music and refined songwriting. They've equally been no strangers to the studio, with their Les Fils Du Calvaire project releasing the recent Rester Avec Toi collaboration with Miss Kittin in preparation for the debut album of the project later this year. Equally their production talents have been felt in the recent Aquarius Heaven EP Bato Chargé, and vocalist JAW was recently spotted kicking off the Circus Company Limited series with Traitor Creator', his collaboration with Piers Faccini. Finally though the time has come for dOP to return to the record in their original form with a new four track EP that perfectly captures where the trio of Damien, Clement and JAW are at right now. The sound on Email From A Beetle is a full-fat, club ready confection that distills the live energy of dOP into four varied but equally ear-snagging tracks that simply demand your attention. The title track in some ways harks back to the introspection of their earlier material, keeping the rhythmic elements sparse and simmering to lend ample space to JAW's captivating vocal line, but there's still plenty of space for Damien's expressive keys to cut through as the song peaks.

This highly anticipated reissue should need almost no introduction: Plustwo's 'Melody' / 'Stop Fantasy' 12' (and even 7' version) have long been sought after by both italo-disco and disco/boogie collectors and command high prices on both discogs and ebay.
Both tracks represent some of the peak musical achievements of the vibrant Italian music scene during the early 80s, skilled performance from talented musicians, tastefully arranged with perfect and unmistakeable vocals from Belen Thomas.
This reissue is the result of a dedicated effort by Hysteric and Mothball Record to make this record available to a wider audience in cooperation with the band.

3 track EP - hypnotic tech house grooves from London based super producer Saytek..

"Life" is an important track for me. I'm obsessed with the past, with history and the way we apprehend life through the ages. I tried to express this deep feeling into music. So this track is about someone or something growing up. It's really as intense and emotional as life can be. ‚Here Today, Gone Tomorrow'!'

Reissue of essential Chicago vocal house classic from the 90ties. b/w with sinister haunting instrumental jackin track "I'm So Deep"....A huge favorite at RH. TIP!!

'No Order' is a 'deeply emotional and darkly atmospheric track'. Billboard Only three releases in and Kidnap Kid's Birds That Fly is proving to be one of the most prominent UK labels with knockout releases so far coming from Kidnap Kid himself and Bristolian Applebottom. Keeping the standard sky high, this next offering comes as an epic double hitter from US native Amtrac.
Caleb Cornett aka Amtrac has been pushing his creative limits as a producer, DJ, musician and vocalist since 2008. Through this release he skillfully creates feelings of elation and euphoria sharply contrasted with a moody and melancholic ambience. He explains how 'No Order' is like a movie score for the club, diving deeper with it's dark atmosphere. Big ups to Kidnap Kid. I love the direction he's taking with the label musically and aesthetically.' Raised in Kentucky but now based in LA, multi-talented artist Amtrac can electrify an audience with his moving live performance and his driving, funk-filled DJ sets. He recently released 'Those Days' featuring vocals from Stevie Wonder & Marvin Gaye on legendary UK label Toolroom Records followed by the 'Lost In Motion' EP, which really gave a snapshot of where he is at musically. Never content to settle, Amtrac's musical mood and influences change with each passing season. His ambition and curiosity keep him locked on the edge, always happy to experiment with new techniques and sounds.

Recorded during the coldest winter on record in Toronto, Bulkhead unveils their debut 12" via our humble imprint. Comprised of live takes assembled into crude arrangements, the Lunch Truck EP features the collision of artists Patrik Benjamin and Pop District to deliver hard-edged, machine-based dance music. A longer version of the record was released on cassette and quickly sold out by our friends in LA, Far Away, in 2016. This EP represents what we feel were the strongest moments from that cassette and constitute not just a dancefloor weapon, but also a listenable record from front to back (not that the cassette wasn't!).

7 yrs on, Fred P drops installment 2 of "The Incredible Adventures Of Captain P", subtitled ESCAPISM, a constant stream of consciousness that takes you on a journey into a dimension of sound. EU pressing.
