THE FIRST SINGLE FROM FORTHCOMING ALBUM 'P.U.M.P' FEATURING REMIXES FROM HERCULES AND LOVE AFFAIR, HACKMAN, & SAMO DJ'S.

At first glance Ali Love's lead single 'Deep Into The Night', his first new material since his profile-exploding Hot Natured work, is primed to elicit an 80's pop undercurrent. But as definitely not a producer to rest on any success, here, Love sounds psychedelically liberated; airing deeply personal details through dance-floor paced electronic rhythms to quicken the pulse, and dulcet vocal tones to soothe the ear.

The jam-packed 12' released on 30th June features a pumped Club Mix version of the original courtesy of Ali Love & Steve Dub, an electro-rhythm loaded Hackman Remix, who buffs Ali's vocals to a shine around emotional melody; New Yorks Hercules and Love Affair; an offering of spiritual New York based grooves, and Samo DJ, one half of the Stockholm/Hong Kong production team Sling and Samo whom gives us an gleefully deep instrumental insight into his production mind.

Ali's forthcoming solo LP lead by "Deep Into The Night" sees Ali craft some of the finest original material he's produced so far as he continues as one of the UK's leading electronic songwriters and vocalists.

Featuring vocals from CHARLES MATLOCK this house song is a "strong message to the club scene". Along with mastermind GLENN UNDERGROUND's production you get a remixes by fellow Chicagoans ANTHONY NICHOLSON and LIL LOUIS on the flipside. A killer lineup of talent from Chicago's house scene. HOUSE

The 2nd in this series of white labels featuring unreleased remixes by GLENN UNDERGROUND. Club tested these tracks are some serious floor fillers now available on vinyl for the 1st (and last!) time: MOS DEF's "LIFETIME" b/w INCOGNITO's "I CAN THE FUTURE", both housed up to killer effect:

Hot and 'clean' new album from JJ&J...TIP!
Two years after the artistic statement that was their expansive third LP, famed live act and hardware lovers Juju & Jordash are releasing another full-length on Dekmantel. Clean-cut, a nine-track affair, comes lovingly pressed to vinyl in autumn 2014.

The duo fully embrace the album format, creating a tight tapestry of emotive and danceable sound that reveals more detail and depth with each new listen. Textures range from organic and lush to synthetic and arresting. Deep-space serenity gets juxtaposed with more urgent and alien paranoia.

"Clean-cut is tighter, more honest and there's less hiding behind a hazy screen of FX," say the pair.

The new release marks a clear evolution in the career of these singular artists. Clearly, Clean-cut is another feather in the already resplendent bow of Juju & Jordash.

Juju & Jordash have a longstanding and tight relationship with the Amsterdam based record label and event powerhouse Dekmantel. Juju & Jordash are a staple on Dekmantel clubnights and festivals. This is their third full-length on Dekmantel, a further consolidation of their 5 year bond.

Dekmantel won the minds and hearts of electronic music enthousiasts throughout the world with their record label and club nights over the past 7 years. Dekmantel Festival -which saw its first edition in 2013- has seen unanimously glowing reviews for two years in a row now, further affirming the path Dekmantel chose to be the right one.

Following EPs on Black Butter and other illustrious imprints, Monday Club deliver the acid drenched 'Blackout' for Steve Lawler's VIVa MUSIC featuring a monstrous beast of a remix courtesy Luke Solomon.

Monday Club is the musical meeting of minds of Luke May & Paul Sidoli. They have a long, shared history of all things acid house and this new endeavour has led to releases on ALiVE, Black Butter, Muzik Box and more. As one half of Cosmonauts, Paul has remixed revered artists such as Moby, Empire Of The Sun and M83. His solo productions have lauded him more than one spot as Pete Tong's Essential New Tune. Luke is one half of Medicine 8 who have remixed the likes of Orbital, Xpress 2, Manic Street Preachers, Kylie Minogue and Tiga and held residencies at the legendary Centro Fly in NYC, Pacha Buenos Airies, Kama Kama Italy and Ministry of Sound London. Also currently releasing under the moniker Decius, it's safe to say that between them, Luke & Paul definitely have the experience and know how to take care of any discerning dance floor.

Luke Solomon is undeniably one of British house music's unsung heroes, from setting up the seminal label Classic Recordings with Derrick Carter to taking quirky house to the UK Top 10 and international charts, with his band Freaks, to DJing around the globe and performing live, Luke has been there for many of the more interesting 4/4 moments of the last decade.

Featuring tracks and remixes from the likes of Royskopp & Robin, Daniel Avery, MK, Dusky and Maceo Plex - as well as two brand new and exclusive Gorgon City productions - All Gone Pete Tong & Gorgon City Miami 2015 is the latest collection in the acclaimed All Gone series.



Few individuals in the world of dance music can claim the kind of influence Pete Tong has had over the last twenty years. With an unparalleled ear for new talent, Tong is the leading tastemaker of the electronic generation and on All Gone Pete Tong & Gorgon City Miami 2015 has teamed up with one of the most explosive new outfits of recent memory.



Gorgon City are part of a new wave of UK house producers who regularly blur the lines between the underground and the mainstream. Arguably best known for their UK No.4 hit 'Ready For Your Love', to date Gorgon City singles have sold in excess of half a million copies, cementing them as one of the most powerful forces in modern-day dance music.



In additional to inclusions from A-list electronic stars Booka Shade, Guy Gerber & P Diddy, Scuba, Jonas Rathsman and many more, the release includes three exclusives.

Boston Bun is back for 2015 with Just for Freaks, which is part 1 of a series of three EPs dedicated to unrestrained underground clubbing.

JUST FOR FREAKS 1 stays in the Chicago house revival that Boston Bun established these past 2 years. The right balance between deep and ghetto music.

A-side " PLEASURE " is a track that you can play very late in the darkest clubs. It drives us with unpitched voices and unleashed TR which succeed to a cut-up bass.

B-side " LEVITATE " flirts with lovely strummed music, almost nostalgic, interrupted by an harmonious and bouncy bassline. The lyric "You wanna play house some more" sounds like the anthem of a neverending party.

Shortly following the release of his critically acclaimed debut album Suzi Ecto, Call Super opens 2015 with the more dancefloor-adaptable Fluenka Mitsu EP on Nous. Limited...
Comprising two highly textural productions, opener "Fluenka's Shelf" is a ten-minute, tripping house tool with dubbed-out effects, cosmic motifs, and a warm, thrummed bassline. Flipside, techno abstraction "From Which I Fell" traffics in slower, swung grooves and mesmeric synth loops.

Kid Sublime's protégé J.A.N. drops his brand new debut 12''.
Amsterdam based J.A.N. got inspired by local DJ's in the Amsterdam nightlife scene at early age. Soon he started DJ'ing, and hooked up with fellow 'Amsterdammer' and DJ/producer Kid Sublime, who showed him the ropes of rocking a sampler. J.A.N. quickly caught the virus and invested in his own digital equipment, started digging for samples, and thereby widening his musical spectrum.

When Kid introduced J.A.N. to house music, he quickly felt drawn to the warm, deep sounds of the Detroit house scene. He describes his fusion style as B-Boy House, and incorporated this right back into his DJ sets.

Kid Sublime: 'Yess! I am very proud my main man J.A.N. is finally dropping his 1st ever 12'...nice basement B-Boy House music...deep and soulful..a very promissing future lies ahead for this youngbuck!'

'For the fans of that Amsterdam/Detroit sound, think the early works of Aardvarck/Rick Wade and you won't be disappointed!'

Seven Davis Jr back on the scene with this killer live bonus 12" of P.A.R.T.Y, easily one of the hottest sides to land this year.

With more than 150 releases and many of them considered classics by now we're really proud to welcome Frédéric Blais aka Fred Everything to the ever growing Local Talk family.
The atmospheric deep house builder Brothers & Sisters comes in two different versions and is everything we could wish for, deep, punchy and masterfully produced house music, sounding right at home on Local Talk.
The PM Atlantic version will do the work for the early sets and AM Pacific is the perfect end of the nighter.
Finishing off is Legacy, a track where groove and dedication is the keywords, a guaranteed weapon in any DJ´s bag in the coming months.
All in all, three tracks of the kind of nuanced deep house we've come to expect from the brilliant Fred Everything.
Local Talk is talking to you!

Currently causing quite a stir on the underground, the Jerome Hill remix of Marshall Jeffersons's Trax classic 'Lost In The Groove' is a complete re-interpretation, solid jacking (hard) house music using the original vocal that's cut loud onto the vinyl and worms inside your head and has been doing serious damage in the clubs and festivals last year. Now with all licensing and red tape cleared away, it's set for release.

Dancer 'Boom Boom' is actually a collaboration between Acid legend Adonis and Sidney Winters, with a mix down by House legend Frankie Knuckles.

This sat on the B side of 'Am A Dog' on Trax Records and is RARE & OBSCURE to say the least, but once the needle touches the groove you know it's a KILLER. Massive kick drums and mysterious organ scales, this one is a mad mad tune ! Produced in 1987 (and sounding like nothing else from that year) it's been given a very slight and very respectful re-arrangement by Jerome Hill, remastered and cut super loud.

Strictly limited and if the previous titles on the label are anything to go by, this one will sell out equally quick...

The Stateside bass collective Elevater Action's 5th vinyl release finds London based maestro Mr. Mageeka delivering 2 cuts of visceral and hypnotic house music. Previously known as MC Mega, Mageeka has been a part of the UK garage movement since it's formative years and the authenticity of his music speaks for itself with relentless and truly unique vibes. The A-side "Most" finds him at top form: swing-driven four on the floor with a timeless bass line that rolls seamlessly into soulful pads and tastefully placed chords, with a frenetic vocal hook that doesn't let up. The B Side Vinyl exclusive "Up In Smoke" features a sexy and sinister organ line leading into a bonafide sermon about Jack himself. Peppered with a swaggering vocal chant that keeps the intensity high throughout the track, the raw groove revives a classic sound into a modern context. EA's own Dylan C closes out the plate with a stripped down dub edit of Most, bringing the vibe of the original into a darker context with cryptic bass flexes and stripped down, minimal percussion while the vocal of the original melts into hallucinatory staccato.
