House Vinyl New Releases - News

Widely unknown and now re-discovered DiscoHouse release from the Cologne underground, put on the circuit via Steuerflucht Recordings - a label that was defunct after 2 releases put on the circuit in the year 2000.

Five tracks of ruff, nicely jammin and super phonky Classic House on black 12' vinyl - original pressing from the long lost label archives!

'Azrael' and 'Ghost' form the two original tracks on HVOB's sixth EP. Not only do they offer an acoustic and conceptual taste of this spring's HVOB album, they are, moreover, accompanied by two remixes: Pillow Talk from San Francisco (Wolf + Lamb, Life & Death) apply their sound to the pulsating and percussive arc of suspense that is album-opener 'Azrael', while The Field from Stockholm (Kompakt, Warp Records) dive into the ethereal fragility of 'Ghost'. 'Azrael/Ghost' will be released on March 20 as a double-A vinyl and digitally on Stil vor Talent.

A renowned producer from the Barcelona scene, Pedro Vian has taken a significant step forward in his career with the creation of Modern Obscure Music. From this platform he is able to shape his vision of today's electronica, releasing material from likeminded artists while creating his own sound, combining silky dance rhythms with an experimental approach and dark atmospheres. So far Vian has collaborated with artists like Alex Trochut, Ital, Hieroglyphic Being, Sunny Graves and Federico Sancho, among others.
Pedro Vian is the new alter ego for Pettre, who has already released tracks on Hivern and for several years was one half of the duo Aster; the exciting project whose house music still echoes in the eardrums of its fans. This time Pedro Vian presents Black Toms EP, a new release accompanied with Inga Copeland and Pye Corner Audio reinterpretations. The publication of this record will be in mid June.

Munich based, Lisbon born, Lino Rodrigues, more commonly known as 'Alkalino', is the next artist on the quickly moving Italian Imprint DaBit Records. Here the Portuguese ex-patriot drops three tracks that traverse his musical output to date.

The title track, 'Feeling of Life' touches on the techier side of the house genus, a booming filtered bassline reverbs in and out of a spoken narrative by the dj, producer and owner of Intent Recordings Gene Siewing, whilst a driving, continuous beat pulls the track on. Probably the most peak time track on offer here.

Next up is 'Martin Luther King', which, surprise surprise samples the great civil rights leader himself. It has almost become a cliché within deep house to sample the Dr, but Alkalino manages to keep the spoken word to a minimum and heaps the emphasis on the musicality of the track.

The EP is rounded off by 'Isolation', the beat and percussion wouldn't sound out of place in a 'Future Sounds of London' track, if only sped up and combined with a few more rave samples, but instead they are pitched right down and complemented by a pad chord progression which works as the track's hook. A haunting vocal interlaces with the chords and bass to build an almost progressive track, a perfect way to end this EP.

Funhaus Records is a music label based in Berlin. We carefully release some house music records, on vinyl only.

Brighton's ever-cultured Black Key label pushes on with another house connoisseur for its next release, namely the venerated Scotland-based deep house producer Brad Peterson.
Before now, Peterson has cropped up on seminal Detroit labels like Moods & Grooves as well as boutique vinyl only outlet Contrast Wax. His sound is deep, moody and atmospheric and comes littered with gorgeous melody and soulful synth work.
Opening up the EP is 'Monsoon', a nice and propulsive house jam that journeys through deep space with infectious drum hits and radiant synths fleshing out the rubbery groove. Squelchy, subtle textures also appear in the synthy trails and the whole thing is a feel good, optimistic bit of music that will get dancefloors moving and feeling at the same time.
'Sit Back' is a more reflective and sombre cut, with wallowing, liquid chords draped over a ponderous, snaking bassline. The percussion here rattles gently, like branches in the wind, and the mood is contemplative and cerebral, which is not something your average producer can achieve from their machines.
The classy, cultured work continues on closer 'Cloud Remedy' with its reverb coated hits, decisive drums and carefully spraying, ever shifting synth patterns. Classic but not overly reverential of the past, it's a beautifully musical bit of deep house with gently tumbling, starry night sky melodies to die for.
As ever with this label and artist, this is a magical EP that puts most modern deep house releases to shame.

"Civil Defense" was—and still is—a tone poem. It was written in 1984 and first performed in various beatnik-esque coffee houses (with a simple beatbox) in and around Chicago. (I went to college on a full poetry scholarship-- believe it or not!)", as Danny himself says, and we think it's right. "Civil Defense" was recorded at Seagrape Studios, Chicago. Produced by the late David Bell; mixed by Brett Wilcots. It is considered to be one of the earliest vinyl releases of House Music. (Earlier House tunes were shared via mix tapes.)
and was never repressed as a legitimate 12".
LDdlm is honored to bring you this " long lost piece of the puzzle" in the retelling of Chicago House Music history.
The LDdlm edition of the original recordings documents the enduring legacy of this iconic piece of audio history, including the long lost Ron Hardy edit and a reshape of the edit of Ivan Smagghe for the first time on vinyl.

The tenth in the series has been twisted in an all too unconventional fashion for the Wilson imprint. Here we have the sequential EP from the WLS09, dedicated to some seriously hot, off the wall remix action from 4 of the most revered artists in the game today; Chicago house legend, Gene Hunt, the notorious HotMix Boss, Simoncino and a remix each from Berlin based Techno-House duo, The Analog Cops. Get ready for some unreal sonic business.

Wilson records is back with a branding 'spanking' new, special printed-screen edition celebrating label head, Fabio Monesi's first solo EP. The succession of the label and Fabio's sound has been ever so apparent. A manifestation into something much more darker and refined, something represented crystal clear in the riveting rhythms of the A side with 'Gotta Blaser' & 'Djago'. On the flip, the B side is a declaration of love, if you will, to the mother of it all; Chicago's house music.

Mile High Records presents a new EP from the Rawthenticity label boss : Fulbert !
Mastered by Matt Colton, this release clearly demonstrates a new direction in his productions, from twisted analog experiments to raw and dusty grooves.
6000 Miles Away is a slice of life from this confirmed producer who spends his time between Europe and Asia, merging different influences to bring this specific sound, which he holds the secret to.

After taking a short break 'House of Disco Records' are back with a purpose. Not content with the adding to the plethora of 'Disco Edit' labels representing the genre they have opted to walk a more distinct path, determined to lean on originals or clever sampling as opposed to outright re-rubs.

In this their twelfth release they recruit previous label-mate Harry Wolfman and compadre Skinny Love to provide three stunning dancefloor ready originals. The duo have certainly delivered on the brief and turned in three diverse and clever takes on what a modern Disco track with a House soul can represent.

On remix duties they have recruited a promising young producer 'Kickflip Mike', who has released on Box Aus Holz as Joschka Seibt and paired him with experienced disco merchant 'The Revenge' who is responsible for some of the best remixes we know of, and he doesn't disappoint here with either remix

The normally work shy combo Lucatwana deliver to you FH003, or under it's more catchier moniker, City Droids.
If they'd have got it done quicker, we might have been able to cash in on the Stars Wars related hype, but never mind.
Anywho, City Droids takes the form of three originals, beginning with the uplifting funk of City Fucking, moving through the tougher and darker grind of 'Droids on Roids' and ending with a nod to Detroit with Nobody Knows.
Pleasingly, we also have a Fancy Human favourite Tigerskin on remix duties, with a smooth, driving, hypno re-imaging of Droids on Roids that hits the nail firmly on the head.

Sugarhouse Records' debut release is a collaboration between artists Maurice Jnr & Roy Rozell. The title track, "Magic Mountain", featuring Seb Miguel on keys, provides a blissful introduction to the label's own brand of House. The laid back swing of "Dane's Groove", relentless hustle of ""Popcorn Riddim" and the refreshing fizz of "Lemonade" complete the EP. Sugarhouse Records operates from Sugarhouse Studios in East London, in association with Turner Prize Nominated design collective Assemble. Original artwork by Alistair Hanson.

Debut release from Secret Reels, a label created & curated by UK house duo Purple Velvet.

Featuring vocals from Scottish/American songstress Amy Lyon.
On Remix duties are WOLF artist Frits Wentink and Quintissentials artist Borrowed Identity.

For its premier release, Division Point Industries is proud to announce a 4-track EP by Rolling Ones, a collaborative project featuring Johannes Auvinen (Tin Man) and Jordan Poling (Jordan). Rolling Ones finds its voice in the synthesis of each artist's sound, combining Tin Man's acidic melodies with Jordan's deep, textural pads. Debuting at the Division Point Industries residency at Bushwick's notorious Bossa Nova Civic Club, Rolling Ones marked their arrival by playing a DJ back-to-back set. Opening the record is '93' Mustang', a muscular, no-nonsense roller built around deep wells of warm bass and slick-piston percussion. As it builds, Tin Man's signature acidic squelch dances in the remaining space, giving the track a sense of both life and depth. Next is 'Faded Delorian', an abyssal burner that refracts its ghostly tones around a panning labyrinth of crystalline synths. On the flip is 'Slammed Cadillac', a sinewy, stripped down stomper of clattering percussion and caustic 303s. 'Jacked Up Impala' finishes the record as a jacking acid tool. Founded by Jordan Poling, Division Point Industries is a new label built on the success of a collaborative residency with Cory James at Brooklyn's Bossa Nova Civic Club. Having hosted artists ranging from the established to the underground, Division Point Industries has crafted a no-nonsense take on deep house and techno that is rich in history while remaining focused on the future.

we welcome Siggatunez on board with first part of a 3 massive deep tracks.

Traxx Underground LTD return with a new record by Steven Wobblejay from the crew Creative Swing Alliance with 3 raw tracks and fantastic deep remix from Siggatunez and Oliver Bernstein. Vinyl only release!

Iconic label and global club brand Renaissance returns with the continuation of the revered 'Mix Collection' compilation series. Art Department has delivered a timeless mix of underground House and Techno, past and present. Art Department will be touring worldwide to support the release and, with over 400k Facebook fans, has a strong platform to reach directly to his global fanbase. As the first release of a new era for Renaissance, this eagerly anticipated album illustrates the label's remit to present the very best of current underground artists and music.

Renaissance has a history of more than 80 compilation releases in the past 2 decades, since releasing the UK's 1st ever gold-selling compilation 'Renaissance The Mix Collection:Sasha& John Digweed' in 1994

Bay area wonder kid Nick Monaco makes his shining debut on Soul Clap Records with this very limited 7' release. The A side "Butterfly" is a slo-mo, 808 laden, melodic piece of postmodern psychedelic E-Funk. On the flip side "My Baby's Back (Can't Wait)" delivers a response to 80's icon Cameo's "Single Life". An innocent yet poignant and hopeful breakup- to-makeup love song, its clear that Monaco isn't too shy to reveal his romantic side.

WOLF+LAMB present the highly anticipated followup to "ENDANGERED SPECIES". The title track is a song led by strong vocal hooks and floor friendly instrumentation. Also included is a remix of "TOO DRAMATIC" by WOOLFY and two bonus cuts

(IF ANY)Think Croydon and a few things come to mind; Kate Moss, punk band The Damned, Crystal Palace football club, Peep Show and of course Dubstep, the now world conquering music genre that will forever be linked to the south London suburb. What you never hear though, is any mention of Tech House, another world conquering music genre. And to be honest we're a little bit peeved about that. Because if Tech House has a spiritual home it's Croydon, and that is due mainly to Swag Records and the people that gravitated towards the humble West Croydon record shop and studio. Swag began in late 1992 and within a year it has positioned itself as the leading store to buy the strange new, stripped down, trippy, driving brand of house music being played at underground parties in and around south east London. On any given day you could walk in and find Terry Francis, Dave Mothersole, Grant Dell or Richard Grey serving behind the counter, Eddie Richards, Colin Dale or Mr C buying records and Matthew B, Gideon Jackson or Affie Yusuf at the helm in the studio upstairs. The building shook night and day with the throbbing, bass heavy grooves and the beat never stopped - or so it seemed. And now all these years later some of those records made in that little room at the top of the old Victorian building that housed the Swag headquarters are finally starting to get the recognition they deserve. Back when those tunes were cut, in the late 90's and early 00', pretty much the sole intention was to have something new and exciting to play at parties like Wiggle, Heart & Soul, Whoop Whoop and Kerfuffle.

After having 4th EP with Berlin artists Sierra Sam & Pascal Hetzel, 5th EP of Sound Of Vast also comes out with another duo The Jaydes from Berlin underground.

Marking the start of an exciting new collaborative project, Wolf + Lamb proudly share the debut release of The Waves & Us. Formed out of a creative meeting of minds between Maayan Nidam, Markus Nikolaus and Louis McGuire, theirs is a sound that strengthens the storied approach of a live band with the experimental thrust of analogue electronics. Pop and rock fundamentals lend an earthly hook to the tracks, but these are anything but straight-forward songs. Maayan has already forged a formidable career in electronic music, both under her own name and as part of Mara Trax, scoring releases on such celebrated labels as Perlon. Markus performs his own solo project Cunt Cunt Chanel, while Louis is part of Ballet School, a band
releasing on noted indie label Bella Union. The whirlwind of creativity that has whipped up around the trio has yielded an album which will follow this single, made up of one-take recordings that capture the energy and adventure that powers The Waves & Us. Maayan's electronics provide the atmospheric backdrop to the songs, running modular synthesisers and drum machines through detailed chains of processing and effects with an emphasis on a warm, charmingly rough finish. Markus' guitar undergoes a similar fuzzy treatment while his voice calls out introspective, abstract lyrics to set the mind racing. Louis' bass underpins the music with a dubby sensibility, bringing a necessary balance to the frequency range. Making the most of their in-the-room recording approach, the singles will feature alternative takes of the songs that will appear on the album, providing a little insight into the flutters and fluctuations that shape the development of this project. With their eyes fixed on live performances and an arresting sound already formed, this is a vital time for all three artists and the people that listen to them.

It's hard to believe an entire decade has gone by since Claude Vonstroke first released 'Who's Afraid of Detroit'. But believe it or not, we've reached the 10 year mark of one of the biggest hits of Claude's career, and we felt it's about time for some fresh takes on the track that helped launch VonStroke and Dirtybird.
For 10 year anniversary, we tapped into the Motor City's outstanding talent pool and enlisted an amazing lineup of Detroit artists to help us celebrate. Besides Claude Vonstroke's brand new 2016 remix, we also included mixes from techno icones Octave One, minimal techno pioneer Marc Houle (Windsor is close enough!), and the accomplished trio Visionquest.
Not limiting the Detroit based artist package to just the music, the haunting release artwork comes to us from Michigan illustrator Dan May. In addition, a dark David Lynch style music video comes from award winning Detroit director, Anthony Ernest Garth.
"Who's Afraid of Detroit Remixes" will be released on the 10th anniversary of the Movement Festival in what city Detroit, of course.

Believer remix by Larry Heard
AKA Mr Fingers
- First time 'Can U Read Me'

Following up his recent debut sets in the vast Sahara structure at Coachella, Claude VonStroke has just unveiled his new solo EP Barrump, which will see a May 18 release.

The Dirtybird kingpin has packaged up two new madcap jams including the title cut and 'Make A Cake,' which generated tons of online buzz from fans after Claude and Justin Martin both dropped it in their Miami sets back in March.

Continuing Dirtybird's 10-year anniversary celebration in 2015, VonStroke and co. will next hit Detroit for Movement 2015, taking place downtown at Hart Plaza on May 23-25. The official Dirtybird 10-year party is also going down at the iconic Detroit Fillmore Theatre, across from Tiger Stadium, on May 24, featuring the usual cast of characters like Justin Martin, J. Phlip, Ardalan and CvS himself.

A leading light at the forefront of the new wave of British house music, northern star Richy Ahmed returns to his home label Hot Creations with a monumental two-track release entitled 'So Good'. Richy Ahmed has been riding at breaking speed since his debut EP 'The Drums' dropped on Hot Creations in 2013, crowned as Pete Tong's 'Essential New Tune' and receiving a wealth of support worldwide. The following year he followed up with his 'Sneaky Acid' EP as the 50th release on Hot Creations and made his Radio 1 'Essential Mix' debut. Since then he has spread his wings producing releases for the likes of Circus and Strictly Rhythm and remixes for Hotflush, Suara and Truesoul to name a few. The talented producer is now back on Hot Creations and about to drop one of his best to date. His first release for 2016, it features two house jams both with a different style. 'So Good' is a perfect summer groover and. 'Ruff N Raw', as the name describes, is quite a tough house banger. Both have been causing serious damage! Aside from producing, Richy is an integral member of the Hot Creations crew, acting as both A&R and being one of the main residents and curators of the line ups for Paradise at DC10. He also enjoys an extensive touring schedule playing all over the world at hotspots such as Panorama Bar and fabric. Now in 2016, there are no signs of slowing down with the launch of his 'FourThirtyTwo' branded parties that see him playing all night to small intimate crowds. Richy also plans to launch his record label later in the year under the same brand.

Versionz is a Deep housae, Groovy, dancefloor jam... Untitled is a dark acid after hours cut...
Support from DJ Three, Severino, Silk86,Ooft & Kevin Mckay

Human Machine is the mix of Musumeci and his friends Sisio, Simeone and Pavi's music consciousness downloaded into a 1024billions Tb Hyper HD to experience first combination between human and machine and see what sounds like.
First result is 'Black Mechanism Ep', three tracks that merge the sound roots of the four brains involved giving back a blend of world music, techno and house with a little progressive touch.
The title track open the ep with a strong 'kick and bass' syncopated rhythm introducing the dark arpeggio spots and an anthemic mama vocals flowing on top of an impressive Bass Synth texture. 'Polymorphism' is the result of an unexpected chromosomic synthesis that occurred after the alteration of the genes, this made possible to turn an initial dark & deep groove into a trancy emotional tune based on hypnotic synth riffs and basic chords changes. Perfect soundtrack of our lost moments.
Last pieces of bits 'Encode' is a bass drum knocker with little melodic infection, someway a natural effect of the techno nature inherent to the 4 subjects.


Support from Dixon, Ame, Lehar, Adriatique, SBTH, Thomas Herb, Yokto, Olderic, Someone Else, 2000 and One, Sasha, The Advent, Joris Voorn, Slam, Thomas Schumacher and more!

Ashely Beedle, Moodymanc & Max Essa at the controls.
This Justin Velor track with Leee John, the main man from 80's pop-soul sensation Imagination, was first featured on his album '2013' and now gets some accomplished remix treatment.
Beedle & Moodymanc collaborate combining their consummate skills to take the track into Black Science territory. They marry phillyesque drums with a bumping bass line whilst Leee John's vocals are chopped & worked smoothly into the deeply swung rhythm. For good measure they drop a deeper dub alongside.
Next Max Essa provides an epic discoid excursion. His remix builds with fizzing percussion weaved around an insistent hi-energy style bassline. Uplifitng synths & Leee's rousing vocals complete the full colour widescreen experience.
The original album version co-produced by Jez Wiiliams ( Doves ) & mixed by Graham Massey is also featured making this a truly cultivated release.

The Kestrel (Turmfalke) will rise in Spring 2015, starting the new label by Matthias Springer with focus on physical media. The philosophy behind is to invite friends to this special cross-over concept. Every artist presents an original in combination with remixing eachother. In the end 4 tracks on one release, no special genre is preset, everything can happen. Frank Hellmond is the special guest on the first Turmfalke release, bringing in his unique deephouse flavour that features some pretty nice vocals from Snowflake, while Matthias is turning it into a combination of dub and acid ... but just have a listen.

To protect the digital integrity all tracks will be re-released for online-media about 5 - 6 months after the physical release. Beside we decided that there is no need for "cool" looking coloured vinyl, so we will keep it black and heavy weight with 180g of pure electronic music!
