House Vinyl New Releases - News

12",180g, Vinyl Only. Limited copies and no repess!

Pirka's first vinyl comes from Romanian producer Adrianho with a remix by heavyweight dj and producer Arapu. A blend of afterhour music and smashing podium vibes.

Praetorium sets off to probe and explore the boundaries of what music can still be. Withstanding the usual trends and expectations of the scene and cheerfully doing so, we invite you to lend your ears to Modest Ionescu, a lesser known moniker of a dear friend of ours.

An authentic artist album in the truest sense, "Nori de Praf" LP is themed around spacious and precise design, gentle harmonies and narrative complexity.

Finding it difficult to explain it ourselves, we'll let you decide what it is and what it isn't.

Vinyl only.

Around the year 1990, a group of producers gathered regaularly at a space called „Blaues Zimmer“ (Blue Room), located at Bergheimer Strasse, Heidelberg. The Blue Room was the studio of Dirk Mantei aka Dman and David Moufang (Move D) calls it the one of the 'Keimzellen' (seeds) for what would happen in regards to the electronic music movement within the Rhein-Main-Area during the following 10 years. The 90s were roaring, with a lot of mid-sized cities located relatively close to each other- Heidelberg, Mannheim, Ludwigshafen, Darmstadt- and Frankfurt was easily reached. Various highly influential clubs and parties happened around that time and Dirk and David had their parts.

Dirk Mantei & David Moufang, Eric D Clark, Robert Gordon, Nils „Puppetmaster“ Hess, DJ Cle- to name a few- all happen to live in Heidelberg and gather around at Dirks place during this time. Discogs calls Dirk Mantei 'a katalyst figure in the 1990s techno scene of Southern Germany' and this is for a reason. He was running a record store (Dubtools) and threw legendary parties - Planet Bass (Sunday party at Normal, Heidelberg around 1988), Hot Lemonade (Sunday party in Mannheim around 1990). When he moved to Mannheim, Dirk opened the legendary club Milk! (from 1990) out of nothing and later ran another club called HD800 (located in MS Connexion). Both were suited with the same famous - and massive - soundsystem, acquired and tuned by himself. David calls Milk! the birth place of his name Move D as well as Source Records as a label.

Both Davids and Dirks first vinyl release ever was a 12“ they released on Davids Source– called Homeworks 1 – four tracks that were released as one of the first CDs on Source Records a year before. Also "Wired To The Mothership" can be found on this CD compilation, a 32-seconds-long track - and although far too short, it's special. Timeless components weaven together in the most wonderful way - Sheffield-inspired bleeps, timeless pads and detroitish strings, a JXP-3 organ solo, analog drums and a driving analogue bassline- and then it's gone.. When asked, why there wasn't a longer version of the track, David and Dirk said they were not happy with the mixdown back then- so it took them almost 30 years to finally finish a 2021 full version together.
Between 2011 and 2021, they both found themselves in Davids Studio from time to time, Dirk was living in Mannheim and some sessions resulted in a bunch of yet unreleased tracks that slept on harddrives ever since then. We are amazingly happy to share these with the world, to let them tell some more yet hidden stories.

All Tracks are written, produced and mixed by David Moufang and Dirk Mantei between 1992 and 2021.

Early support from: Raresh, Enzo Siragusa, Giuliano Lomonte, Archi Hamilton, Barac

nina is far removed from the usual deep house sound, with an airy and intricate style mixed with her own vocals and put together to create a track with soul. now repressed !!!

We are pumped to share our 7th release: “Snorkeling in Dewsbury” by a fairly new name out of Leeds, Midge Thompson. Another heavy hitter out of the UK (go figure), we first caught wind of him via his release on Butter Side Up (Big shout out to Hamish!) and knew we had to get him on board for his next vinyl output.

He delivered the goods as we expected with a well rounded EP that's an ode to his hometown. The A1, Snorkeling in Dewsbury, is the title track and delivers a punchy but deep, house groove. Fat bass lines, catchy chords and a subtle yet uplifting vocal make this a warm-up killer. For the A2, Snorkeling in Dewsbury gets a rework by our Italian brother Paolo Mosca. He puts his own twist on the title track with a progressive arrangement that eventually erupts into a dance floor weapon that is begging for a dark, sweaty room. Heads down, hands up.

On the flipside you get “Sometimes You Can” a hi-hat and sub-bass driven, deep yet techy, track akin to the golden age of 90’s house music with timeless minimal vocals and swing. To round out the EP, you get Hot Rod, a slow-building, big room slammer that’s patiently waiting for club’s to re-open.

repressed !

After constributing a superb remix for Ricardo last year (PERL69-1), we are happy to announce the first solo 12~ from mister Proper for Perlon.

Aquatic drums and romantic vocoders from a galaxy far far

brought you tonight. Are you accepting? PWRLDRs first
release is starting off strong with raw machines that’ll grease
your gears and bake your circuits

Next up on the A2 is Moray with the funky and banger “Ohhhhh Really”, processed drums and some retro vibes on this one also big track to fill the dance floor.

Flipping over onto the B side we have "My Houze’' by Tripmastaz, a full-on pounding acid house beauty with a pulsing, peak time rhythm that just won't stop!

Caposile Music guys are proud to present their third release.
The EP is produced by Alessio Viggiano, the international producer and DJ that have been hosted many times at After Caposile.
Alessio shares his “history” as producer with three unreleased tracks, that go from the deep house of Astral Impact to the tech house of Magic Mountain, always maintaining his unique style, clearly expressed on the track We Will Go Dance Together, the track that has been chosen by the French duo Oden & Fatzo for an unmissable remix.

The bass and the overwhelming vocal make this last track the most important one of the EP, that is, with Oden & Fatzo remix, an unmissable EP.

Repress

For Intercontinental Dance Organization's (IDO) third release, Astrometric Effect EP, sees the label's founder Valentino Mora collaborating for the first time with experimental Japanese musician Yoshitake Expe. The EP comprises of 2 hypnotic house tracks with tribal percussions created through live improvisation between the pair and a third track, an effective dub version by Valentino Mora.

Are You Happy?
What would is what we should be doing. Sort out our sorry lives despite obstacles, imaginary or real, does not matter what you feel. We are cornered, floored, bored, abhorred. So do it or die. Do it or die. Hear hear, make do battlecry.

“A Cómeme classic that was ahead of its time finds a new life in fresh mixes by Matias Aguayo and Ricardo Villalobos”

In a surprising turn of events Cómeme reissues Matias Aguayo’s “El Camarón” from his album “The Visitor” (2013) in a new 12” extended club mix including a remix of none other than Ricardo Villalobos. The latter suggested to give this forgotten latin new beat gem a new life! He had recently rediscovered it, and added to his sets - including his own 12 minute fabulous remix, which is driven by a mesmerizing groove and pumpin sub bass frequencies.

Aguayo then decided to also rework “El Camarón” with an extended soundsystem - friendly mix, that will move the feet of dance music lovers from all kind of biospheres!

The lyrics tell the story of an old river shrimp that accidentally joins a boat party. The ball starts in the guaraní jungle to later continue along the ivory coast, featuring super colour range towels, buzzing mosquitos, monkeys, parrots, piranhas, mermaids, and more. The shrimp becomes the star of the night by introducing new ways of dancing that make every one go down, down, down, abajo, abajo, abajo…

Alleria’s first appearance on Nervmusic Records

La Collectionneuse is the third studio album by Carsten Jost.

Passarani debuts on Aus with his sixth studio album, The Wildlife Of The Quieter Ones. Marco's discography boasts releases on Libertine, Running Back, Peacefrog and Numbers, the diversity between each label show his versatility as as a producer, he’s seamlessly moved with the times and glides through each era with a zesty take on a timeless sound, his credentials speak for themselves and here you see a well seasoned producer at the top of his game

Vinyl Only, dedicated to my family, my supporters and all the music lovers. The sixth chapter is coming from the duo Araki Corp. composed by The Groove Guy and Lapucci. The two met in between their styles, modern nostalgic sound, how we like it at burbi’ studios. 80’s oriental influences mixed to modern futuristic sounds. 4 tracks that cover 4 different music kinds.

Next up on Serii Speciale we have another talent from Argentina , Suinyl, 12" limited press on transparent wax

The second instalment of the Arupa Music Vinyl Limited release presents Bexu, an artist who derives from Cluj-Napoca, North Western Romania. Bexu’s discography has grown steadily over the past few years, and we are super proud to make an addition in physical format.



Title track Calatoria entices mystery from the get go, an artistic soundscape of dreamy, uplifting pads with chugging bass and sharp driving percussion. The hypnotic vocal eagerly anticipating an answer, rightly deserves provoking sequel (part two).



‘Doru Lenii’ is a different approach to the dreamy off kilter nature of the Calatoria tracks. A driving, instructive vocal, builds anticipation and delivers sonic answers for questions asked, chords progress as the track builds, heavy synths drive the track forward and into conclusive territory. A true tale of the sun & moon; day into night, and back into day again.



Crihan’s interpretation of ‘Calatoria responds in true B side fashion, responding with a bounce and giving direction to the adventure mystified in the title track. Off kilter percussion, a focused bassline, vocal converses with ‘Cataloria’, natural production techniques give a truly organic feel. This release disperses absolute warmth.

Sono Unica Records welcomes Romanian maestro Nu Zau for the fourth release - Future Self EP. With his three hypnotic tracks Nu Zau brilliantly adds to the Sono Unica releases.

Landmarks and milestones are always memorable, but the 50th EP release on FUSE feels that little bit more special as head honcho Enzo Siragusa steps up to the mark and returns for the second time this year. Having launched the label in 2011 with his now iconic ‘The Sagamore’ EP, the renowned selector and producer has grown and shaped the FUSE from a Sunday after-hours to one of the most notable names within house and techno worldwide - anchoring the label at the heart of its identity and bringing its trademark sound to an international audience. Following material from original residents Rich NxT, Rossko, Seb Zito and Archie Hamilton through to regular guests and close friends such as Guti, East End Dubs, Michael James and Fabe, October sees Siragusa showcase both his and FUSE’s evolution over the past decade as he uncovers two bustling productions across his ‘Dreamscape’ EP.

A production oozing with his signature sound, yet introducing fresh subtleties in amongst the track’s snaking groove and hypnotic melodies, ‘Dreamscape’ welcomes a title cut full of energy as the FUSE boss picks up right where he left off to provide yet more heavily requested material on home turf. On the flip, ‘Bean That Talks’ sees Siragusa get playful while maintaining the vigour of his bustling live sets, combining chunky low-ends with skippy percussion and rich pads to showcase precisely why he and FUSE continue to flourish as leaders of a sound that they can truly call their own.

Say hello to the great debut of artist Nukohl hailing from the wonderful Leipzig, Germany. His six tracks been a collection of the last years of his work. A beautiful and melancholic electro ride through time and space.

It's still hard to keep up with all of Burnski's many different labels, but we're not complaining. This one, Constant Black, mixes up things with a tech and minimal twist and next to do so is Daniel Akbar. 'What' soon wins you over with its kinetic and infectious drum programming and smart samples - a phased vocal and a twisted synth lead. 'Retreat' gets more physical - the drums bang with an old-school flavour and hint of tribalism. 'Listen' is a big fat tech roller with low slung bass and 'This One' rounds out with some brilliant drum, hits and brain-frying bass sounds. Pow pow, what a record.

SYNSTH 005 is ready!

This time Daniel Gorziza comes with a totally new sound from what we were all been used with till now. This one has beatiful mixed sounds of Breakbeat with other influences coming from the electronic music genres!

RAWAX IS PROUD TO WELCOME MR. K-ALEXI SHELBY TO THE FAMILY!
Mr. K Alexi Shelby
Like a moth drawn to a flame, there is something utterly infectious about the music of Mr.K Alexi Shelby, better known as K-Alexi one of the founding fathers of house music direct from his home city of Chicago. Since the late 1980s, he has pioneered the true house sound, leading to a DH and production career spanning over 20 years, including collaborations with artists ranging from The Pet Shop Boys to Derrick May and from Larry Heard and Felix da Housecat to Will Smith, as well as gigs across the globe.
An impressionable young teenager, Mr.K Alexi Shelby developed friendships with Frankie Knuckles and Ron Hardy whilst attending seminal venues like The Warehouse and The Music Box in the mid 1980s. Being here at this embryonic stage of dance music culture, there were no rules or precedents, so K Alexi drew on a rich musical heritage that had seen him grow up in the 70s and 80s listening to Stevie Wonder, Prince, Curtis Mayfield and David Huff. Those roots continue to influence his music to this day.
It was under the moniker Risque III that Essence Of A Dream was released in 1987, firmly establishing the name of Mr.K Alexi Shelby amongst the most prominent of all house producers at the time. Moreover, those early tracks are still recognized to be the quintessential Chicago house sound. The rumbling and dark bass, smooth strings, incredible percussion and the spoken word poetic and erotic lyrical flow became the trademark for classic Chicago house and the template for everything else that followed. To reiterate, there was no template before this. This was the beginning.
This initial success has lead to Mr.K Alexi Shelby working with the leading names across the electronic music world and beyond. Collaborations and remixes for Chicago peers like Mike Dunn, Mr. Lee and Marshall Jefferson merely served as the springboard for Alexi to work with the best in the electronic scene, from Derrick May to Paul Johnson ,Ron Trent Dave Angel to Felix ad House Kat. Furthermore, his talents have also lead to him working with The Pet Shop Boys and Will Smith.
On top of this, his tracks have appeared on compilations by artists varying from Laurent Garnier to DJ Hell, who used It's Me 2010 contribution to the Body Language series for Get Physical Music. Produced under the Club M.C.M. moniker, the 1991 EP It's Me/Club M.C.M. has been a frequent selection for compilations for 20 years and is rightly regarded as a true underground techno classic.

Vinyl only

First release from Purple Print featuring Sepp.

Assemble Music brings together four more producers at the forefront of today's fine minimal/house/electro scene. Eklo boss Seuil kicks things off with JAM, a slowly-unfolding confection of metallic percussion and rolling bass set against a meditative, minor backdrop. His fellow Half Baked resident Robin Ordell brings a tipsy-sounding vibe to MOBSIW, each element swaying its way around the others in an off-key dance. Les Points' Barbir adds Detroit hats to a no-shits-given breakbeat and suspends it in time, before finally a 4/4 kick comes to put feet back on the ground. Finally, Traffic founders Martyné and Jacob draw on more contemporary breaks and electro influences on ELECTRONETTO, with that laissez-faire swing with which their label has become synonymous.

Vinyl only - no words needed. First come/ First serve!
