House Vinyl New Releases - News

Lazy Ants combines on 4 peak the slices of House and Techno with none other than Lauren Flax and M.F.S: Observatory.

Audio Soul Project is back with their latest vinyl-only EP, Simurgh. With a title inspired by the mythical Persian bird, these four tracks fuse elements of house, R&B, dub, and drum & bass to create an ecstatic and hypnotic experience.

The EP kicks off with "Deliver Me," a dreamy house track with warm filtered chords and bouncing synth bass. R&B female vocal ad libs pepper the groove and the refrain "Deliver Me" adds a sense of yearning. The percussion, including morphing 4x4 and breakbeat drums, piano and synth stabs, nod to the cerebral Detroit and Chicago house compositions of the mid 90s.

"Azizam Dub" takes a more stripped-down approach with a subsonic bass line bump and Juno 106 stabs. Frantic percussion and deftly cut vocal samples accent the ebbs and flows of the arrangement, making for a dynamic and engaging dance.

The B-side of the record starts with "Internal Vybrations," a bass-heavy drum & bass track that winds and jumps with multiple layers of deep, fluttering bass and ambient pads and strings. Percussion layers like hi-hats, shakers, and maracas lift and relax the rhythm in parallel to the rest of the composition, making for a hypnotic and trance-inducing vibe.

The B2 track on the EP, "Celebration Dub," is a bass-heavy swinging house track with ecstatic diva "Whooo" samples that punctuate the ups and downs of the groove's energy. Classic reggae and dub-influenced vocal samples and heavy tape delay on certain key instruments add to the joyful and uplifting vibe of the track. The keyboard

and string section can transport a dancer to other realms of consciousness if they let themselves go to the groove.

Simurgh is a masterful fusion of various genres that showcases Audio Soul Project's production prowess and ability to create an entrancing sonic journey.

TL;DR: Audio Soul Project's Simurgh EP features 4 tracks of dub-infused house music. Deliver Me has dreamy chords and female R&B adlibs, Azizam Dub is stripped down with subsonic bass and vocal samples, Internal Vybrations is a bass-heavy drum & bass track, and Celebration Dub is a swinging house track with reggae and dub vocal samples.

Next up on FIT SOUND - A split 12" that combines the way out sounds of Chicago from veteran producer Marcus Mixx and the modern raw Detroit sound from label owner Fit, aka Aaron "FIT" Siegel, whose last release on FXHE has been tearing clubs up world wide!

D//P is dedicated to pushing the envelope beyond left field yet simultaneously tangible and minimal. Emphasizing Soul with unique vocals, electronic or acoustic instrumental expression, releases are deeply seeded in the origin of music, art, culture and underground roots.

The first installment, "Taxi Cab Confessions" from the upcoming project Planes, Trains and Automobiles' by
The Twilite Tone of D//P, walks the tightrope of traditional Chicago House aesthetics and forward thinking mpc beat culture. It features the butterfly-like vocals of Rozzi Daime taking one on an ephemeral and emotional ride through her life that both arouses sexuality and inspires empathy for the damsel in distress.

The instrumental versions by Tone and Ge-ology serve as alternative routes arriving to the conclusion
this is some other shit.

A few Highlights from the sessions Leron recorded in 1987-88 when he was fifteen or so. China Trax, featured on SS012 ,came from these sessions. These were hand made, meaning no sequencing was used for the keys on any of the songs featured, using cassette tape overdubs, a lost science. Omar-S touched up the material from those cassettes for this release on vinyl. Tip!

Recorded &Mixed by:Leron Carson @the attic, Chicago 1987-88

The Chicago-based artist, real name Andres Ordonez, has been a fixture in US house music circles since the '90s, releasing a string of EPs on labels like Sistrum, Semantica and Sound Signature. Theo Parrish's outlet, which last year put out a live mix from Ordonez, will handle his first album.

Brand new tracks from Theo Parrish. No confirmed release date as yet and we'll let you know as soon as we know more but we'd advise getting your pre-sales in asap.

feat. Maurissa Rose

The new Parrish single appears on vinyl in the form of two mixes differing in vibe but consistent in quality and suitability for DJ use. The original rides along on a shuffling, almost Afrobeat version of house, with Maurissa Rose's gorgeous vocal floating above the gloopy, hypnotic bassline which gets the full filter treatment. The instrumental dub places that b-line very much at the centre of the mix, starting from a single kickdrum before building up to a more techno-edged, vocal free climax. all throbbing bass, solid bears and minimal, glitchy keyboard interjections.

Paradise Pizza is back in with usual good quality stuff. A perfect release to fly through the night...

After two in as many years, low-key German producer Yør returns to similarly low key Dutch imprint Purple Maze for his third full outing on the label in the form of the 'Sublimation EP'. Across the four tracks Yør continues to explore the same frayed and decayed, abstract electronics as he has in the past, with distant kins like Kassem Mosse and Morphosis still resonating.
The opener and title track is an intense and moody, nerve jangling affair where huge searching synths pan in the background of grinding drums and dense percussive clatter before 'Gravity', with its heavyweight and churning drums, trudges on through sonic scuzz and lo-fi blizzards as a backlit melody keeps things from growing all too dark and abstract.

The many different contrasting surfaces and counterpointed moods make Yør's sounds as arresting as they are. The dystopian, tortured industrial funk of 'Parallels' with its slapping claps and decaying percussive lines are proof of that, where through chaos comes beautiful order.
Closer 'Trust' holds its head a little higher, more spiralling synths and bleepy fax machines tones add a sense that the apocalypse is coming and machines will take over, but there's enough organic beauty in the deeply hidden melodies to keep the track from being all too hostile.

Pumping, groovy, deep and lush house tracks by Mr. G, comes with a remix by mate Duncan Forbes.

After 3 successful releases on Nu Groove and Refuge Rec. comes the fourth strike of the Acid Jerks.

Eighties and nineties inspired house music, powerful and stylistically confident

In a very special edition of our Basement Tracks series, house legends Alan Fitzpatrick and DJ Deeon team up on a Chicago-inspired house track, later flipped by Shall Not Fade family member, DJOKO.

A figure who needs little introduction, Alan Fitzpatrick has long been electrifying dance floors with his big-room selections and production. This EP sees the tech-house icon collaborate with the equally illustrious DJ Deeon on a track which gleams from the Chicago producer's musical heritage in juke and Ghetto house. "Shake That Thang" cruises along a deep house beat whilst Deeon's unmistakable vocal chops float over the top, offering a blissed-out take on the genre before Cologne's house music stalwart DJOKO who brings the funk on a buoyant flip. Rounding things off, "Learning to Love" sees Fitzpatrick fly solo with a sunshine-doused melody and euphoric drops. This one's sure to be heard on festival stages all across the globe this summer.

In 2020 we haven´t been dancing, we haven´t been clubbing neither have we been to festivals - it drove us all crazy. The pandemic has burned out dancefloors without a break but we at NBAST, we’re still moving. After all, we are all still here - intact - because we are so passionate about this music, just like you and so we wanna share new bits of our eleventh record with you soul sisters and brothers. For HDSN it was a turbulent year - career on hold, empty tour schedule, delayed releases and the break up of his long-term relationship kept our man testing to the bones. It´s nothing new that heartache has been one of the strongest inspirations for making music and so it turns out that all the drama around 2020 didn´t stop the young talent from making moves. Au contraire it has been a very driving force for the up and coming artist to craft new soul food for the people. “Break Ups To Make Ups” is a major statement! It´s moving and inspiring, as well as energetic and forceful; a record whose vibrations stun the spirit and lift the listener capturing the true essence what soulful dance floor music is about. HDSN continues to embrace disco and house pairing it with vintage sounds retaining his beautiful, raw and dancefloor friendly production signature. NBASTWAX011 has the power to make you move and, above all, the magic to make you feel much longer. #datsoulthang

CLUB UNITE RECORDS PRESENTS: BLAK 'N' ORANGE

Old school house music at its best!

This EP gets off to a perfect start with "Keep It All Inside", a straight track with dirty kicks and snares meeting rough chords and melodies. Uhhh!

"Luv The Way" cannot be surpassed in its purity and its efficient minimalism. This track should be played at high volume!

The B-side gets us a little deeper with two versions of "Join The Jam" and rewards us with everything that enchanted us in the 90s: smashin' grooves, deep chords and soulful vocal samples become an incomparable musical and equally danceable highlight. Hypnotizing!

Heavily influenced by Moodymann and Andres, new Home Taping artist Simba produces music that is full of soulful echoes, while still dripping in raw house music vibes.

Nothing is too straight in the Simba sound as FX drift around and subtle production touches come at you from all angles.
Vinyl hiss is as important as the kick drum and the overall atmosphere has that classic house music quality that can transport you instantly to another place.

The Black Madonna was the one who drew attention to the rising talents of this young producer. So fittingly she delivers her own 'Lost In Chicago' take on the original, which delights in the track's edginess and the wonderful release of the main hooks.

All of which are given the trademark BM Chicago stamp, or should that be stomp
Quality house music for the believers out there.

The first instalment of the Forbidden Dance label is an organic brew of musicianship supervised by one of the Chicago deep house scene pillars - Vick Lavender. Three warm cuts are tinted with a jam feel showing Lavenders well-known ability to gather a different kind of music players and vocalists resulting in a soulful sections that are cleverly breaking the usual and linear electronic music mould. That's pretty obvious on 'Habanos', the opener track which fluently combines multi-layers of piano and synth sections in contrast to tribal rhythmics and flowy marimba background. With Yvette Magallon pouring pure honey with vocal inserts it's a never-stopping dance of the soul elements. Lavender manages to keep the same feel on the B side as well, with 'The Definition' track going off a bit more subtle but at the same time showing a funky edge with a playful bassline. Reverbed percussive lushness and diverse synth teasers are tinting the track with a summer night breeze, something your hips would move to. 'NiteFlye Jessie's Journey' is a closing track and a slow-burner riddled with spacey explorations of the keyboard. It gives almost 80's like feel beautifully integrating subtle synth envelopes and even marimba bits. A perfect deep rounder of this musically rich release. Hats off Mr Lavender!

Fine, the new musical playground from Johannes Albert and Tilman, announce their first release with neat & warm House loveliness for your pleasure.

10 brand new tracks across two discs from Chicago legend BOO WILLIAMS! "DEPTHS OF LIFE" fuses classic melodic deep house with spacey acid and hard swung rhythms in BOO's signature style. A must cop for fans of SJU, PRESCRPITION,...

Green Splatter Vinyl

A killer Chicago-style acid groover by way of San Diego's Matthew Brian. Absolute peak time gear here and already in heavy rotation. Excellent mastering and loud AF" - Mark E Quark
A hard hittin' jackin' house track laced with a velvety 303 bassline that is sure to be a floor filler. Comes in both original and dub mixes. Pressed on stunning translucent emerald green vinyl with a black splatter. Debut vinyl release on Cali's TABBY TRAXX (very Chicago sounding though).

Part 2 of the Unreleased Gemz series presented by Phoenix G. This release features a very special coloured / handstamped 12'' with 4 unreleased heavy Mr.G cuts.

This slice of vinyl contains 4 cuts that represent the different styles G has done over the years. From an emotive vocal laden deep jam to an oldschoolish banger.

Es ist die langerwartete Rückkehr einer klassischen Kombo - die Kompakt-Koryphäen MICHAEL MAYER und REINHARD VOIGT verbünden sich für TIME IS RUNNING, der nächste Geistesblitz in einem fortlaufenden Dialog, der uns bereits legendäre Releases wie etwa Speicher 2 bescherte (KOMPAKT EXTRA 2, mit den Tracks "Pride Is Weaker Than Love" und "Supertiel"). Wie von tanzflurerprobten Produzenten wie diesen beiden zu erwarten war, trägt das neue Material alle Kennzeichen eines Clubfavoriten, geprägt sowohl von der knackigen Rauheit der frühen Kompakt-Stampfer als auch vom ausgeklügelten Klangspektrum unseres aktuellen Katalogs.

Remastered and Repressed in conjunction with Power Music Records.

Referring to Karel Capek's satiric 1936 novel ,,War with the Newts", the sixth record of the YAPPIN chronicles is DJ Neewt's second attempt to transfer Capek's dystopian imagery of suppression and monetarisation onto a sonic level. This EP is a pass to deep and psychedelic spheres, a clash of despair and hope, hegemony and appetite for freedom and independency, an alternation of tension and relief, of simplicity and complexity.

Distant, reverberating voices wallowing in broad synthesizer soundscapes, incisive bass lines twining percussive patterns - everything is cyclic but yet somehow progressing.

The three tracks on ,,Mud Voices" are not just functional tools to inject some trance and breaks into your DJ set, they are the creative outcome of DJ Neewt interrogating Karel Capek's view on totalitarianism, postcolonialism and social Darwinism - an attempt to put a sonic complexion to the marvelous science fiction story the Czech author had told in dismal and desperate times. - B. Kaemmer

Re mastered for 2014 from Oscar Gaetan & Ralph Falcon's original Murk DAT's for 2014. Fantastic re issue of these legendary producers early catalogue from 1992. Containing all the original versions and dub's. These will sound better than anything on discogs.

Killer old school house with ace remixes by Legowelt and Alden Tyrell!!

Hot off his debut 2xlp for L.I.E.S. young music prodigy Tom Carruthers delivers a new 6 track lp of total Transmat worship. Jam packed with huge DX basslines, slamming 909s, and catchy melodies - this lp is made for the floor and would be hard pressed not to be thought of as a lost relic from '89. Where as his last LP channeled more bleep elements, this one goes right to Detroit and moves the crowd as it should be...anthem after anthem.
