Fully Koded Chicagoians Traxx and Beau Wanzer team up for another Mutant Beat Dance release. Together they have produced arguably 'the best 80s Chicago house record NOT made in the 80s. The Mutants call it Jakbeat, inspired by the early days of house music. TIP!!!
'Let Me Go' is as intense and rhythmically inclined as they come. Naughty Wood's sparse vocals cry desperation, almost nearing insanity, which makes up for a pressure cooker like warehouse anthem.

'Rottonfunk' is another intense work out which has a killer groove and makes us wander off to the Promised Land (wherever that is).

Its delightful to hear that Chicago house music this good still gets made. Surely when it was released way back when, it would fetch top dollars on the interweb.
Authentic stuff!

Vinyl-only Never Learnt follows up the superb Nyra 'Best Of' release with this superb two-tracker from October & Borai, who have previously teamed up for the shadowing BRSTL imprint,
October as a solo artist is currently winning many a plaudit for his unique take on house and techno, with releases on Skudge, Simple, Applepips and his own Taanstafl imprint all causing a stir.
In this release, we see two dubbed out, cosmic housers with 'Level Abstain' being a skewed peak time cut and 'Vital Ital Rub' heading for the deeper floors.
Stay tuned...

Cork based producer and DJ Shane Linehan has cut quite the impressive swathe in the first few months of 2012, anointing his own Basic Groove imprint in fine style with the swiftly sold out 12" My Initial Grooves as well as gracing Mad Mats Local Talk label with a stellar vinyl drop. Linehan returns to the controls for the second Basic Groove release with more of the same - namely deep, tracky productions notable for a crispness in percussion and rawness in texture. Lead track "Get Together" is a swaggering example of Linehan's style, with a groove formed of low set bass stabs and playful neon chords. It's complemented by the deeper sounds of "The Future" with the opening shards of dubby chords soon aided and abetted by snapping rimshot percussion, thick bass clouds and the whispered titular vocal.

Snuff Crew, the masked German duo who keep their identities hidden and look to focus all attention on the music and the dancefloor.Their debut for SCI+TEC sees us transported back to the groundbreaking days, when 707 and 303 were the backbone of this fres

UK house head Wil Maddams follows up his first release on Local Talk with possibly an even stronger EP.
Where his first EP went for a more classic jacking house sound these two tracks goes darker into cutting edge House territory, with an almost Moodymannesque feel.
The EP starts off with "Handle the change", a gospel inspired cut with a raw and slightly techy production. If you like u'r church speeches this one's for you!
The second track is an ultra deep house nugget with a strong Detroit feel that almost sounds like a production co-­-op with an old school Pepe Bradock and Theo Parrish.
Well...almost ;)

Local Talk is talking to you!

Debut record by the cloaked, shadow-lurking underground figure Xosar, pushes forth into the realm of cosmic mysticism with a new style of occult-tinged public access house music. Through the three tracks the artist touches upon elements of U.R. styled hi-tech trance, UK bleep, and lo-fi chi-town realness creating cohesive and effective dancefloor cuts. Sure to spawn the interest of infidels, non-believers, and the clinically ill.

1990. England. A revolution is building across the UK. Dilapidated warehouses and factories come to life at night. Euphoric teens defy police bans and cordons to embrace life and the dancefloor. Acid house has arrived and friends Matt (Henry Lloyd-Hughes - 'The In-Betweeners') and Dylan (Jack O'Connell - 'Skins') are at the heart of it. This is their story. Welcome to 'Weekender' - a brand new film that documents the rise of House Music and Rave culture in the UK in the late 1980's/early 90's.
To tie-in with the film's release Harmless are proud to launch 'Weekender - Soundtrack Gems + More Inspiration' - a 3 X CD deluxe package compiled by Terry Farley which contains one CD featuring the best tracks from the film, a second CD featuring further inspiration from the era and a bonus third CD which features an exclusive Terry Farley 'Weekender' continuous mix. The vinyl offering contains 3 exclusive new edits of seminal acid house anthems "Move Your Body (The House Music Anthem)" by Terry Farley & Leo Zero plus "Baby Wants To Ride" by Miles Simpson & Neville Watson.

Long time friend of Yousef and his Circus Events, DJ SNEAK steps up on Circus Recordings with two classic 'Sneak' offerings.

"COMING WITH DA SOUNDS" sees Puerto Rico's finest let rip. Clattering techno beats with an authentic trademark vibe power towards a (dare we say) 1991 rave break down. Big Synthy sounds make way for the straight up power house that our man is renowned for.

"TIME TRAVEL" A track so close to Sneak's heart, he wouldn't let anyone remix it. The groove is relentless and character warm, just like the great man himself.

On remix duties - Circus and Circus Recordings main man Yousef steps up with a slamming remix of "Coming With Da Sounds," backed by label mate Tom Flynn who takes the cut into a trackier stripped back groove with big drums and lively bass. Another great ep from Circus....

Not only is this EP Gerry Read's debut association with Delsin, but so too does it mark the launch of a new house-focussed series from the Dutch imprint.
Mysterious and 19 year old Read had quite the year in 2011. On Ramp sub-label Fourth Wave he unleashed a trilogy of EPs which toyed with a rough and ready house and techno template, sampling anything and everything and chucking it all together into sketchy yet essential tracks which made you feel, think AND dance.
