House Vinyl New Releases - News

Dj Sounds presents Moving, a 3 tracks record made for the dancers and the Djs. Track 1 "Moving" is an elegant built around a filtered disco-ish sample, simple while very efficient. "Casa Suave" is a classic sounding House track, easy to spin and sure to please the crowd. Closing the record, "Fragments" is a bit slower and deeper with its Roland pads and bass, still very danceable.

From the heart, from the soul, this is where the Jimini's music comes from. Jimini is a French producer who started dj'ing early 90's, during the last 2 years he released music on Blind Jacks Journey, Série Limitée, Lo-Deep, Simple Things and others. His music is a mixture of his many influences, but also influenced by the moment's mood and the life experience.

(Limited 300 Vinyl)

After the critical success of their first EP Bleu Nuit' released in 2013 at Craki Records' and their sold out French tour opening for Mancunian band Wu Lyf, Apes & Horses are back on 27th May, 2016 with a new mini-album called Echo", released at Because Music's. Aurélien Hamm (voice, music) and Pablo Altar (keyboards, production) deliver us a dark, divinely vague, spacious and sensual pop. In this record, feelings are expressed through a sublime and moving haze, but there are still turbulences beneath the surface, seduction behind sadness... The EP has been produced by Ash Workman (Christine And The Queens, Metronomy, etc), and the management is well carried out by the promo director of Beggars UK and Tony Wilson's former assistant (the boss of the legendary label Factory). A fantastic team for a promising band.

Release no.9 for Fof's deeper house offshoot with 'Black Dynamite' bustin' out a 4 tracker of fine house music. 'Busted Loop' is a stripped down, low slung infectious grind, 'Mother's Love' a slo-mo burner with sampled vocal snatches of a classic soul singer. On the flip, 'Wayback' is the more traditionally obvious deep house cut, a sense of melancholy intwined in the razor sharp beats and 'Block A' rounds things off with a phunked up groove.

Vanity Press was formed in 2015 by David Marroquin to preserve and proliferate Southeast Michigan's rich history of dance music. Our first release is a 3 tracker by by young Detroit producer Julian Kendall. Cool, composed, lean neo-jackers that work as well in the car as they do in the club.

strictly limited 180g 12" vinyl, hand stamped, individually numbered, no digital.

Blossom Kollektiv is back with a brand new vinyl only release that is ready to shake up dance floors with its deep and moody vibes. This time around a pairing of two minds have provided the musical paint for the canvas. Polish based producer Tanzlife has teamed up with ID Ensemble to deliver a package of finely tuned house music that is destined to end in DJ bags and vinyl enthusiast's hands across the globe.

Getting things started with 'Hiperbola' we are sent straight to the dance floor with a thumping kick, classic house pads and a slamming snare that is sure to impel dancers to put their hands in the air and lose themselves in the music. Followed by 'Moss' the pair present something a little more playful than the first cut. Taking us through a deep tripped out adventure we float through a strange new world with complex beat patterns, percussion and lush melancholic synths that take us to our esoteric playground.

Finally to wrap things up we land effortless into 'Parabola' that lifts us up right away with a solid kick and feel good synth stabs that reminds us of the joy that this music can bring. Then the percussion builds until the end when a slight vox sample kicks in to give the track an extra boost and create an extra layer to our already jubilant experience.

soooo here we are with the tenth and final release - thought it would be nice to finish on a nice zen like number - so this is a extra special release -kind of a mini LP almost -
opened up by FX Mchn - Flush the Trush is an intro to the comp - and a reverse funk skittish affair -
next up is new man on the block for us here - we been sitting on a collection of his tracks but felt this one complemented this EP the most - Ecco Foul - Gloss is a sleazy machine groove that doesn't do much but thats just the way we like it .then comes Mr Facade with his jerky funk - sweet surprises and warm melodies. the B side is opened by another newcomer from Running Back record - Hugh Mane - New age Dawns - whose track come s deep and wide open - has to be heard on the headphones as well as the club - Jamie Blanco's chord arrangments get opened up and spaced out by LHT office boy Toby Tobias in a detroitesque ditty thats been used to open a few sets in 2015 already and finally Alphonse delivers an out and out machine jam with the usual dub influence brought in vocal fashion.

Some more home-grown beats from Elvis Cassetta on Morris Audio! After his huge tune Humney (Morris Audio 94), Mr. Cassetta is ready with another fine EP called Longstreet Claps.
The title track is a deep and up building house tune with cool vocals and a sexy bassline and shows Elvis more subtle side of house. More of that please! The remix courtesy of up and coming London/Leeds duo JammHot (Madtech, Roots of Bloom, Morris Audio) taking a more stripped down approach, but as sexy as the original version. The B-side offers two straight club cuts, Elvis Cassetta style! And yes, Elvis is his real name! Enjoy!

Exotic Refreshment proudly presents Tears EP - definitely one of those records where you can't really pick a favourite! Release includes 2 sexy originals delivered by Sweden's Fragile Signal, and 2 outstanding remixes, first by Germany's COEO (DaBit Records / Toy Tonics / Sccucci Manucci / Seven Music), and second by Italy's Marsupials (DaBit Records / Seven Music). This killer soundtrack simply can't be missed!

Frankfurt based producer, DJ and music lover Martin Heimann presents his debut single Salto' on Carry On 008. Remaining faithful to its name, the small label puts out another piece of limited wax every once in a long while. Enrooted in the soundscapes of 80s proto house the original version of Salto' is a thriving piece of octave liberation. Consistent changes between harmonics break up the repetitive structure, while FM pads and the 303 are performing a little duet. The release is ennobled by two proper remixes from Moon B (Peoples Potential Unlimited) and Jex Opolis (Good Timin'). While Moon B keeps it bubblin' with some extra analogue funk bounce and subtle Italo dance floor energy, the B-Side is Jexi-fied with some embellishment to the cords, change in the bassline and a nice 808 snap. On top Mr. Opolis adds some mysterious but cheesy vocals samples that match perfect with the moody 80s orchestral stabs.

New release of Overall Music limited Series (vinyl Only) where the Heads of the label Presents House Theory V.A with 4 amazings tracks from John Dimas, Alci, Lopaski dan Cobert.

We welcome Stefan Hendry from Regensburg, Germany to Keno Records. He immediately got our attention with his eclectic, melodic and very unique style. This is an ep that will grow on you. These breakdowns gave us goosebumps every time we played them in our sets.
The first feedback for this ep was huge and we are sure that it will find a lot of friends out there.

"It's been scarcely 20 months since the appearance of the debut EP Wannado' (Lebensfreude Records) from the three affable Berliners-by-choice: Stereofysh. Those months saw brilliant concerts in Berlin, Munich, Leipzig, Bochum, and elsewhere. Last summer included memorable performances at the 3000 Grad Festival and the Tag am Meer Open Air Festival. Remixes from the likes of Lake People, SiS, and Robag Wruhme further established credibility, and with two successful subsequent EPs, Stereofysh firmly secured their position as a band to be remembered. And now it's here: the band's debut full-length album.

The Race will hit stores in May on vinyl and CD. Once again, Stereofysh have netted high profile remixers, including Ruede Hagelstein, Mathias Kaden, and Daniel Stefanik. And once they play the ISLE 9 Festival in Hawaii this summer, they'll be looking back on half of a year of lasting impressions.

Bubbling and brimming with joie de vivre, the Fysh have long been happily swimming together in life's currents—since infancy, in fact, for singer Lysann Zander and producer Gunnar Zander. Their efforts with their first band Goodbye Wavers eventually developed into the band Send More Cats, whose 2011 album Please contributed music heard by German cinemagoers in the film Miss Sixty.

Along with their acoustic songwriting, the siblings have also been intimately involved with electronic club music since 2004, performing both together and individually as DJs. The two also enjoy collaborations both national and far abroad: Lysann has released tracks with New York artist Nicholas Sauser, Istanbul artist Tufan Demir, and Indian producer Pawas. Gunnar has worked with Robag Wruhme on a remix for Paul Kalkbrenner's smash hit Sky and Sand.'
Stereofysh began to take shape in 2011 when jazz musician Lars Dieterich joined the band. Since his saxophone studies at the UdK Berlin, the multi-instrumentalist Dieterich has appeared in projects such as The Ruffcats, Soap, and Trondheym at festivals around the world, including Jazzbaltica, Music Biennale Zagreb, Sydney Mardi Grass, Jazzfest Berlin, and the ElbJazz Festival. As a live-performance and studio musician, he has been active with internationally known artists like Jazzanova, The Boss Hoss, Bobby McFerrin, and Mousee-T. Dieterich's intense interest in the electronic modification of various woodwind instruments has proven to be the pivotal third ingredient in pushing Stereofysh toward a new dimension of sound.

Since the start of 2013 has been on the artist roster of the Lebensfreude label. The Wannado EP was released in tandem with the new partnership and promptly scored heavy-rotation on the radio station Flux.FM. A remix EP followed, along with the next EP of original songs named Zanderdome. On Record Store Day 2014, the Robag Wruhme remix of the title There Yet' was released on Pampa Records as a split EP with Tocotronic, which sold out in short order. 2014 continued with the release of the especially popular track Cellphone' which came in the form of a remix EP, entitled Cellphysh. Breaking convention, the remixes here were not produced by artists from the electronic music scene, but rather in acoustic form by Gunnar, Lysann, and Lars themselves. Among the supporting players on the EP were Lars' band The Ruffcats who, though officially touring as the backing band for Flo Mega, managed a clandestine cloak and dagger session to conjure up a sparkling little soul number for the Fysh.

Navigating constant changes of direction yet pressing forward, all the while keeping an assured, measured pace—this is Stereofysh's specialty and the guiding principle throughout their debut album. The Race is, at its core, a multi-facetted wealth of elements, all combining and reconfiguring to provide moments of magic and happiness, as well as a few goosebumps.

The title track and album opener The Race' invites the listener into its relaxed flow, soon pouring into to the steadily pulsing beat construct of The Ease,' in which the clubgoer becomes as helplessly entangled as a fish in a net. And there is simply no turning back after the Grace Jones' fantastically re-imagined Slave to the Rhythm,' during which the listener becomes just that, and is delivered—heart and soul—over to the Fysh. The album's most 'Berlinish' track may be Igor,' whose relaxed, swaying, golden swing elegantly expresses a nocturnal, transfigurative Zeitgeist. Things get deep on Johanna,' with sighing, sawing sax tones, sad keyboards, and Lysann's smoky voice, plaintively weaving ever downward.

The tides are ever changing, with the vibe of the Stereofysh now more concentrated on performing live. They're working with an expanded band outfit that they enjoy taking on tour. Stereofysh could change their name and their colors, but whatever emerges will result in a journey forward. Only one thing is certain: it'll sound good. Wherever things lead, there won't likely be another band that has so impressively mastered the art of bridging electronic and club together with live music."

The third release on the vinyl-label 'Playmusic-Productions' is presented by the berlin-based Rene Reinert under his artist name 'Amor Fati', who's also the label owner of Black Is Black Recordings. On his very unique work for Playmusic-Productions called 'Träumer & Tänzer', which is german for 'Dreamer & Dancer' he combines remarkable soundscapes, deep keys, an epic trumpet lick and the drums. Nothing more, not even a real baseline. But that is possibly what makes this tune so special. Also included in the package is a remix from PMP's wunderkind Tim Engelhardt, whose mix is definitely for the dance floor. In the first 3 minutes the mix simply has an amazing flow using the main loop from the original, a smooth baseline, rolling hats and some groovy shakers. Then a wonderful danceable break and the trumpets come in. All in all, a magic mix. Then label head Andreas Lindemann is bringing the original to the top. Against all expectations, he made a very smooth and relaxing mix, which is starting with sea waves he recorded in Mexico. Then a very soft and moody pad fades in, and for a few minutes this lovely just takes you on a journey. Then the trumpet wakes you up, the percussions make you dance again and a really sweet 303 line takes you back in time! To come to an end, this release can also be described in one sentence: All the tracks are using the same elements, but every artist does this in his very own style.
get into the Vibe..:-)

...und am Ende ist es doch Musik!

Was Armando Quattrone und Ben Freyer (BIG WHITE DOG LOST) sich dabei dachten, als sie diesen Vocal auf Band brachten, überlassen wir mal der Interpretationsfreiheit derer, die Bedarf und Zeit haben ihren Gedanken freien Lauf zu lassen.

Was unsere Familie, bestehend aus:

Audio: BIG WHITE DOG LOST / 90sechzig90/ Phil Speiser / Mendoza

Visual: Finn Bohn / Ellen Hothaus

aus dem zweiten Release von Exposure Music gemacht haben, ist aber ohne Zweifel ein Gesamtkunstwerk. Und das Cover gibt darüber hinaus noch weitere optische - ebenfalls unkommentiert bleibende - Denkanstösse...






Let's talk about...

We'll leave it up to you to interpret, Armando Quattrone and Ben Freyer's (BIG WHITE DOG LOST) ulterior motives when they recorded this vocal.

Exposure Music's 2nd release - a moment of ecstasy

Behind the scenes:

SOUND: Big White Dog Lost I Phil Speiser I Menodza I 90sechzig90

As for the cover We won't stop you from letting your mind wander off...

Cahoots Volume 5 presents tracks that firmly stand their own ground. From the deeper A-side offerings of Definition & Def:Play and We Are Mam, to the burly B-side beats of Ruff Stuff and Jus Nowhere, Volume 5 casts a wider net, capturing new artists that embody the pioneering spirit of house music.
Zürich's Definition & Def:Play collaborate as producers and label chiefs, running their imprint Definition:Music, with a catalog of excellent talent and releases including their own productions. Layering dubby percussion with melodic chords and rich, atmospheric pads, their track Synthesizer On My Knees', is a deep venture for the duo and continues to stretch the scope of the Cahoots sound.
Music is the Message' by We Are Mam brings an old school flavor that will keep heads nodding from start to finish. Living in Tuscany with an eye towards Chicago, Marco Celeri, under the moniker We Are Mam, brings his version of jack to Cahoots with right and tight percussion against filtered keys, string stabs and sampled vocals. Chock full of classic sounds, Marco's inspired productions can be found on labels such as Back to You and Legendary Sound Research. Additionally, Marco operates his label Roots Underground Records, releasing underground cuts heavily influenced by the old school.
Flipping the script on the B-side is Grooveat' by Ruff Stuff with a stomping beat, warehouse vibe, and a magnetic vocal that bring grit with a touch of soul to the dancefloor. A collaboration between Francois Le Roy and Nanni, the Ruff Stuff sound sits at the intersection of House, Techno & Garage, with a lookout towards the new school sounds of today. Milan-based Ruff Stuff has quality releases on Layers Label, Kolour Recordings, Release London, Street King and have recently launched their vinyl label, Ruff Stuff Music Ltd.
Closing out Volume 5 is Shoot Back' by Jus Nowhere. Hailing from Washington D.C., Jus Nowhere is the first Cahoots artists to represent the U.S.A. His range of styles and sounds can be found on labels such as Silence In Metropolis, Definition:Music, Four Fingers Hand and White Widow Records. Shoot Back' consists of tight percussion, wobbly synths, clipped vocal samples and some heavy bass that will drive any room insane. A regular in the D.C. scene, Jus Nowhere is also part of 'Rush Plus', a techno focused moniker with partner in crime, Jackson Ryland.

Now into its tenth year and on the cusp of release number 100, Aus Music is delighted to announce a debut album from long time house and techno tastemaker Cassy. Entitled Donna and featuring 12 stunning tracks, it marks a real evolution in the UK artist's sound and stands alone as a coherent long player made up of very real songs.

Catherine Britton is a celebrated DJ and producer who can work crowds at underground havens like Berghain and Panormabar as much as she can at vast outdoor festivals like Tomorrowland. Her productions are inventive, left of centre house and techno affairs that have come on esteemed labels like Perlon, Uzuri and Bass Culture. Cassy also runs her own self titled label, has made an entry into the hallowed fabric mix series and never lives in one place too long. That shows in the wide remit of sonic influences on display in this singular long player offering.

With no real plan other than to make an album as unpretentious and natural as possible, Donna simply reflects the sounds that have enthused and inspired Cassy over the years, but it did't come easy. I had broken up with my husband, left Berlin, left my friends and left a way of making music and a way of living life,' she recalls. It was too painful to make music. I tried singing and it felt awful. I had to look at myself and understand how much I truly disliked myself.

I had to get out of all my unhealthy relationships with people that were a mere reflection of how I felt inside. Music producing was out of the question. It reminded me of who I tried to be for other people.'
Once the album writing process eventually started in earnest after six years of stop start, Cassy found out she was pregnant. Six months of structural experiments ensued with sound engineer and friend Iad Agabekov, as did a relocation to LA and then Philadelphia. It was here the album was finished as Cassy found new inspiration and passion with her new born son and partner. They, along with friend and soul brother' King Britt, 'helped me transform the album into a more mature version of me and my music. Into the version I am ready for the world to hear.'

Opening with the downbeat vocal darkness of 'This Is How We Know' this album has you immediately enthralled. From there, a deep and moody selection of stripped back but emotive cuts range from crisp and kicking to more menacing and troubled. Plenty of vocals lend the whole thing a personal and intimate feel, with the overall mood lovelorn, vulnerable and honest. There is minimal techno, soul infused house and Latin flecked rollers next to creepy slow burners and delightfully freewheeling and melodic disco style cuts.

All in all, Donna makes for a roller coaster ride that is accomplished and unpredictable, and very much proves Cassy has much more than just effective club music up her sleeve.

Hailing from Århus, Denmark second largest city, Zaks feels closely connected to the rock, punk and experimental scene blooming in his hometown. The same DIY esthetics can be found throughout his own, idiosyncratic take on electronic music that, apart from being highly distinctive, is best to be described as incredibly versatile.Central's sterling Dekmantel Records debut is spread out into a montage over four sides of vinyl - DKMNTL034 & DKMNTL035. On the first part of the mini-series, Zaks deviates between the deepest, vocal tinged house of 'Keep Love On Me', via breezy breakbeats ('This Is Hand'), to the lush ambient-jam 'Longest Way Between Two Point'.

The 8th release of 'House Mannequin' includes two new house tracks!

The title track, Thesseus, is a stretched out Detroit infused tune with almost hypnotic yet ingenious stabs combined with a strong and moody bassline for which we know the Belgian producer best. This is definitely the kind of track that will work well on the floor and next to it. Meditations In An Emergency does exactly what it says on the tin. It's on of those tunes you put on at the end of the night or when an emergency to meditate presents itself. In addition to the two originals there's also an excellent remix of Meditations In An Emergency by the Italian producer
Clockwork (C/W). The remix focuses more on the hard edged elements of the original and morphed it into something reminiscent of early 90's broken beats/ techno.
It's clear that this Thesseus EP is a powerful extension to an already impressive discography.

Standing at the intersection where techno meets classical music, Ólafur Arnalds directs the newest Late Night Tales, set for release on 24th June 2016.

After releasing the breakthrough album 'And They Have Escaped The Weight Of Darkness', in 2014 he was awarded a BAFTA for best original music for the TV series Broadchurch. Arnalds' music has a quietude that seems perfectly apposite and that's evident here as each song drifts like an autumn wind towards the next.

Arnalds has enlisted the help of a few of his countrymen for the journey out west - electronic bands Samaris and Hjaltalín - and just as his records manage to combine the experimentalism and adventure of electronic music with a classical sensibility, here he weaves them perfectly, using tracks like Koreless' brilliant post-dubstep 'Last Remnants' alongside the enigmatic brilliance of Jai Paul. It's a perfect musical landscape that is eerie yet beautiful, as on Odesza's 'How Did I Get Here'.

As if Ólafur wasn't spoiling us enough, he offers up three exclusives: his own 'Kinesthesia I' and 'RGB' and 'Orgoned' by his techno side project Kiasmos. Alongside that we have the obligatory cover version (Destiny's Child's 'Say My Name') and also a Late Night Tales debut for David Tennant, reading a story by Anam Sufi, with whom Ólafur worked on Broadchurch.

When I was asked to do the next installation of the Late Night Tales series I thought "This will be fun and easy, only a couple of days work. No problem!". Six months later, I was still pulling my hair out in some kind of quest to make the perfect mix. As someone who has never really done mixes before, I learned a lot of things along the way and the whole experience was very inspiring. I decided to approach the mix in a similar way as I would one of my scores. This is the soundtrack of my life. I included songs from many of my friends and collaborators and tried to deliver a mix that represents who I am as an artist and where my influences are coming from - both personally and musically.'

Orson Wells' interpretation of House is so classic and yet so contemporary. Timeless!

Two edits by O.C. on the first release of the new edits series of Nous'klaer. Laser cut sleeve, vinyl only and limited to 300 pc.

Limited edition hand-numbered gatefold PocketPac CD - incl. 3 exclusive special edits by Musumeci & Olderic.

Olderic and Musumeci, whose friendship and close alliance is layering on their deep passion for electronic music, are stepping up to compile and mix the sixth instalment of Compost Records' Black Label Series DJ mix compilation. Both artists steadily and successfully shaping and contributing a modern, forward thinking approach of dance music and club culture - made in Italy.

Olderic, heading from Venice, is resident DJ at one of the most influential underground clubs in Italy - CirQ - where he's got a perfect platform to shape his unique style as a DJ but also gaining invaluable inspiration for his own productions. His 'Alma EP' released on Compost Black in 2015 as well as his recent remix for Musumeci & The Element and a soon to be released collaboration with Peter Pardeike (both for Connaisseur) are state of the art house music and received support by the likes of Mano Le Tough, Âme, Laurent Garnier, Tale Of Us or Ewan Pearson to name a few. Whereas Sicily based Musumeci, also part of the project Human Machine - making big waves with their '146 EP' these days, is one of the masterminds behind the superb Italian underground label Engrave Ltd - and a top notch DJ of course!

This being said, we are more than happy that Olderic & Musumeci now teamed up to compile and mix the next chapter of our Black Label Series. The duo did a superb job digging the crates and putting their favourite tunes of our rich and eclectic catalogue into motion. Paying attention to the labels recent years true highlights as well as adding some of their personal secret weapons in form of Musumeci & Olderic Special Edits - now exclusively available as part of the compilation for the first time. Olderic and Musumeci drawing a very personal picture and show how to shift from more leftfield and disco tinged territories to modern House, Techno and beyond to otherworldly regions of dance music with this fluent yet diverse mix which is touching all the right spots and senses - on and off the dancefloor!

Since its inception in 2011, Moda Black has become one of the UK's most successful independent imprints, focusing on passionately produced, forward-thinking electronic music that covers a broad range of sounds. The acclaimed Moda Black album series is the labels sonic yearbook and has been responsible for unveiling some of the labels bigger records, as well as serving as a launch pad for white hot emerging artists.

For the fourth Moda Black album, the label focuses almost exclusively on it's own collective, delivering 11 brand new, previously unheard tracks and remixes. From newer members of the crew, such as Theo Kottis, Zeke Africa and IDAMOS to longtime associates Huxley, Groove Armada and Walker & Royce. Guest appearances from Tuff City Kids, Richy Ahmed and Throwing Snow seal the deal for what is another killer instalment of this ever-evolving series.

From 100bpm to the late 120's, the albums flows from the texture-heavy broken beats beats of J&AG's 1968 (the broken tape) through to the frenzied arpeggios of Theo Kottis & Izzy Demsky. It reveals one of Richy Ahmed's best remixes, an incredible rework from Throwing Snow, and the debut of hyper-talented Scottish producer IDAMOS in its wake. Mixed, and including new music from label bosses Jaymo & Andy George, Moda Black Vol. IV is a carefully crafted, dynamic snapshot of the scene through the eyes of this feverishly passionate collective.

Lower East are proud to introduce the highly anticipated second release from Alexis Raphael. Club soundsystems far and wide are still resonating with the sound of his first release on Jamie Jones' and Lee Foss' critically acclaimed label: Hot Waves. Spaceship reached the top 10 in Beatport's deep house chart and received glowing reviews so what better time to introduce his next offering: Kitchens and Bedrooms.

'DJ Bert & Eagle - Import' came out of the blue and disappeared right back into the depths of the universe. Originally composed to hit the Top 50 charts, it completely failed to do so - luckily!
With this 12 Maxi single release the vocal drum edit of spAceLex will finally see the light of day and be available for your personal DJ experience. Remixed by Alessandro Adriani, the additional dub remix has an Industrial, Wave-like touch to it and invites to a seven minutes mind-bending trip. Mastered by one of the best audio engineers from Berlin.Pleasure your ears with this beautifully reworked single, made for DJs seeking unique flavors with a deep character

Having championed underground dance sounds for many years now, DJ/producer Felix Dickinson really seems to be hitting his stride now, and on 'A Day's Reality', his second full length single for Futureboogie, Felix serves up perhaps his most accomplished works to date. Collaborating with legendary Chicago vocalist, Robert Owens (Fingers Inc/Frankie Knuckles), the pair produce a standout song that pulls on the very best of influences and delivers a modern day classic in the making. The 'Classic Mix' delivers some classic Chicago house tropes in abundance, Owen's vocals sounding just as good as ever digging into Dickinson's authentic production with it's timeless sound and energising vibes. An alternate 'Dedication Mix' is also served up, enlisting the musical directorship of Mikey Yamada and the live bass & guitars by Tsuyoshi Kosuga, both players from Japan whom Dickinson has forged a creative allegiance with. Brooklyn based Justin Van Der Volgen, supplier of fine sounds to labels like Golf Channel and Boogiefuturo, also joins the party with a version that further compliments the vocal prowess of Robert Owens. Selected DJ reactions: Craig Richards (Fabric) -

Introducing Felix Leifur, Dirt Crew's latest discovery, an all new, raw and savvy talent from Reykjavík, Iceland. Reykjavík has a population of just over 120,000, so the disco, hip hop and soul sampling, house music community that Felix rolls with is pretty tight knit, giving him a unique and inspired perspective on the sound. Remixing is friend of the label, Manchester's Hidden Spheres. After breaking through on our 'Deep Love 10' compilation, he went on to drop his 'Waiting' EP last summer on 'Distant Hawaii' (the dreamy offshoot of 'Lobster Theremin'). On the A, 'Berg Toppur', is a dance floor workout, a sublime balance of shimmering rhodes and vibrant arps with slamming organic percussion. 'Giving' is a spirited and warbling cut, crooning vocals and gritty horn blasts punctuate it's steady groove and loose live clap. This one's got open air written all over it. On the B-side, 'The Sunday Club' is a eclectic and somewhat eccentric jam, samples from across decades, weave together to create something altogether new. Next up, Hidden Spheres' Rocky Top' remix of 'Berg Toppur' eases in with a casual vibe, steamy drums, and a no-nonsense bass line set the pace, while the arps and elated vocals from the original sweep and soar, building to a feverish peak of sun-scorched bliss. Finally, 'Wait' sets the mood with a dusty jazz piano refrain and a strutting groove, before bringing the playful yet punchy trip home with a solid head-nodding bass line. Felix Leifur's diverse ear and distinct style gives 'The Sunday Club' EP the perfect blend of breezy summertime spirit and serious night club heat.

Ahead of the release of his much anticipated second album on No.19 Music, legendary Canadian DJ, vocalist and producer Kenny Glasgow serves up a scintillating single from it.
The album comes seven years after Glasgow's last legendary LP, A Taste of the Low Life, and in that time he has found global fame both as a solo producer and part of Art Department with Jonny White. Someone known for his beguiling vocal work and stripped back, slick and metallic tech house style, this limited, vinyl-only single is a truly mouth watering taste of the excellent full length album, Circus Tales, that is to come in summer.
'Prototype' features firm drums that are perfectly programmed to sound busy and urgent. Up top is a melange of Kenny's beguiling singling, wordless and wooing vocals and unhinged synths that will freak out dance floors. The whole thing is full of subtle effects and little twists and turns, as well as playful ad libs from a charismatic female voice, and it is all expertly layered so as to make you want to move your every limb. Well crafted for maximum dance floor impact but also richly detailed with sounds that keep your mind more than occupied, this is another stunning single from Glasgow and No.19 Music that will have the world in excited anticipation of the full length to follow.

Second installment on Orson Wells' Sound Mirror imprint by another great new talent from Frankfurt am Main. Koloman's music sounds like it's from the past and the future at the same time. Dreamy melodies, chords and strings meet deep warm basslines and hypnotic drum machine edits to shape compelling and timeless pieces of detroitish music. Stamped white labels. Initial run comes with A5 insert. don't sleep on this one!

After numerous releases on extremely influential imprints such as Kompakt, R&S, Gigolo, Cocoon, Permanent Vacation, Throne of Blood, Correspondant, Eskimo, Endless Flight, Astrolab and on Ewan Pearson's Misericord label (with the 2008 über-classic « Boutade », also re-released last summer on cult balearic stable International Feel and currently featured on Bill Brewster's « Nightshift » comp for Late Night Tales), revered Belgian dj & producer Mugwump is now at the helm of new label Subfield, run trough !K7 label services. Subfield will be home to his forthcoming artist productions as well as others and will span the full range of electronic music. SF001 features 3 Mugwump productions : the bleepy techno-new-beat piano anthem « Share of Thee Grail » (already being used for a Karl Lagerfeld advert), the psychedelic disco-dub of « Satori Crossroads » and the rare-as-fuck and huge at the A Love From Outer Space London clubnight, Mugwump instrumental remix for massive London goth-rockers O'Children.
