House Vinyl New Releases - News

Thirty years ago, British youth culture was changed forever. The Summer of Love in 1988 saw House music spread like wildfire over the country, with thousands of young people dancing in fields, clubs and any spaces they could find. One of the tracks that truly encapsulated this magical time was Stirling Void's 'It's Alright'. Originally released on Chicago's seminal label DJ International, the spine-chilling lyrics of positivity resonated in the hearts and minds of the Acid House generation and are more relevant in today's climate than ever. To celebrate 30 years since the Summer of Love, Toolroom is proud to present a monumental remix package of this all-time classic, alongside the fully re-mastered original. First up on remix duties is one of house music's most intriguing artists. Adesse Versions has a back catalogue of highly sought-after records, and he's treated this remix with utmost respect, keeping the track's essence and identity, but adding a new layer of raw warmth and subliminal melody. Next up, House legend DJ Spen has stepped up to the plate with his own interpretation. His jazzy, soulful keys have added a layer of polish and musicality to the track, which combine beautifully with Paris Brightledge's iconic vocals.

Adrianho is signing our 3rd Ep to date, and with this he takes the audience on a beautiful journey with 3 stunning tracks featuring a dancefloor banger remix from his fellow romanian Vern.

The 007 EP is shaken, not stirred by Bizarre Trax’s own Jhobei. Four colourful and animated cuts which you can expect from him, teased with the trippy elements we love at MW.

The 2nd release from TABBY TRAXX is an exciting mix of acid house, jackin' house and tech house. The title track "STALKER" gets a special Chicago style acid house remix by MATTHEW BRIAN.

Fifth release with dusty jams from the Swedish label run by Per Hammar. Edvin Wikner’s ”Skritt” comes as an original, together with remixes from fellow Scandinavian S.A.M., Rowlanz and Per Hammar himself.

The original has been a frequently dropped club weapon among Per Hammar and his friends for a while before he decided to snatch the track to Dirty Hands before someone would reach for it.

Wikner is a Swedish artist who runs the Instance club and Maraton label, a talent that has a refined sound and slick technique that leads to some absorbing rhythms and classy house grooves, as this new one proves.

The opener track is a bubbling deep house groove with deft percussion sprinkled over a warped bassline that keeps on pulling you in. It is mind melting and hypnotic, sure to build a real vibe amongst a club setting. The Rowlanz remix smooths it out into something dreamy and atmospheric, with gorgeous sci-fi pads drifting about in the distance, sinking you into a reverie.

The Dirty Hands founder, Per Hammar, then comes correct with a remix which gets busier and more driving, with supple drums and wavy bass all working you into a tasteful minimal lather, a direction we are familiar with from fellow Swedish man. Last of all, S.A.M. gets freaky with a trippy after-hours vision that is dubbed out deep techno with haunting vocal whispers and subtle sound designs that all occupy your mind. A well rounded and killer EP, with a variety of producers showing their cards.

Two discs from Harry Wills on his new label, Nimble. This isn’t just bedtime… this is Luxury Bedtime.

Ion Ludwig goes off the beaten path with A Better Future To Long EP, to add a new chapter to Metereze’s rather unconventional musical journey.

Each of the three cuts can be easily pictured as electronic mandalas: launched into the frequency modulated dense air, repeating themselves over and over again until they get hardcoded into the dance floor memory.

Each of the three cuts is building momentum around an obsessive pattern, meant to anchor the listener into the here and now. "140KM:h" comes with a dusty acid feel driven within the reverbs, stretched on the whole Side A. "A better future to long", can go easily as a dark tint of stripped techno, until you isolate the trippy melodic mold from the heavy background. "Abstracy" is nothing but a lo fi strip, filled with rolling basslines, a proper reminder that house music has its own twisted side.

Metereze welcomes Ion Ludwig.

RE.FACE LIMITED has come to its 9th vinyl output which sees label head Toguè finally releasing on his baby. The Italian DJ and producer delivers three club missiles within which sonic atmospheres and enchanted twisted synths are free to take the skies above heady grooves and bulbous basslines. The label also welcomes Berlin-based Lorenzo Chiabotti who enrich "Cosmic Echoes" with some modular magic and a pinch of pure Italian flavor.

Following the release of a number of EPs on Swiss, German, British and Australian labels, Trinidad will release their debut album ‘Palm Trees & Thirty Degrees’ on October 16th 2020.

The album draws on the Swiss-based trio’s experience of sustaining the energy of festival and club shows, while also providing the perfect background to a relaxed summer evening with friends.


The project provides an opportunity for the trio to indulge in a range of musical influences, blending together a mix of synthesizers with the haunting tones of a church organ, the warmth of a string quartet and regality of an opera singer. The album grew organically, with inspiration taking hold beyond the confines of the studio: the bonus track recorded with a Jamaican reggae singer in the back of a VW bus in Greece. Soundscapes from Colombia to India were captured and embedded.

With "Palm Trees & Thirty Degrees" Trinidad guide listeners on a journey to a tropical paradise; to a wonderful, perhaps peculiar place of confidence, created and shaped by the mental theatre of the moment.

The soft kiss of a warm breeze hits you as you adjust to your new surroundings ("Desembarco"); leaving the static chatter of your thoughts behind in the "Lobby" (feat. MonoAbe) of your mind; you allow yourself to imagine what the evening holds in store (“Kopfkino”); But first, there’s a drink in the “Sunset Bar”, a refreshing cocktail "Luciola" that serves as a gateway for you to plunge into the night. A night of unlimited possibilities, the first instances a blur ("Sagrada"), as time starts to lose its meaning ("Tempus Fugit"); everything spins, everything is possible, everything is ("Elevate"). Suddenly, hours (or is it days?) have passed – it doesn’t matter; what matters is the first sign of dawn, the unmistakable warmth dissolving the darkness (“Alma”); the beat slows, and you feel the "Libération" of the new day; looking around you see the moments you’ve shared etched on the faces of your friends ("Fleeting" feat. Julia Portmann); It is not goodbye, it is only "Au Revoir".

The album was produced by Trinidad in their own studios in Bern and Zurich. It features collaborations with a number of artists: Cornelia Aeschbacher Firmin (Hang), MonoAbe (Mallets & Percussion), Jack Williams (text of "Fleeting"), Julia Portmann (vocals), Zenyth (vocals) and Michael Meier (electric bass). The songs were mixed by Marcel Schneider, mastered by Benjamin Fay. Raïssa Lara Lütolf was responsible for the graphic design.

French-Singaporean duo Dixia Sirong return for their third EP on Inner Balance, the sub-label of Chez Damier’s legendary Balance imprint. Breezy harmonies float over the tightest of grooves in a classy combination that has become the label’s hallmark. ‘Eight’O’Eight’ is a surefire hit while ‘Kashmere’ and ‘Yggdrasil’ will slot in with the best of today’s Berlin-London tech house sound. Closer ‘HK Side’ transcends subcategorisation, its piano and pads reaching for something bittersweet and timeless.

A record label specializing in cutting edge electronic music. Whether you are standing in the middle of the dance floor at a club, riding your morning commute in the train with your headphones on or finding new inspiration in the studio — music is able to completely break us from reality, providing a sense of warmth and comfort that gives us the energy to carry on. It is by this ethos that London-based DJ and artist Vass curates the newly-founded label The Comfort.

Gloomy futurism, sharp snares, enthralling melodies and rich basslines, Dj Lo-Tek’s is Sohrab’s alias for off-kilter hardware based jams. The debut release for The Comfort is a contemporary dance EP in four stages. Music made with basic equipment in a low life area of town that, surprisingly, is in itself not so basic at all. The record kicks off with “Bonus Beats”, a uplifting track that is sure to capture those special moments on the floor that you can’t put into words. It follows up with the A2 cut “Reznet”, going into more emotive territory, driven home by a powerful groove.

The flip side hosts “Powa”, the heaviest track on the EP, designed for peak time action: big, hypnotic and playful in all the right ways. Ending the record is the appropriately named italo-disco influenced “Amber Haze”, a showstopper for intimate and bigger rooms alike.

With Floorplan, Robert Hood blends techno elements with disco, house and soul to create a real party vibe. He first introduced it in the mid 90s with 'Funky Souls', originally on his own Drama sub-label but re-released last year. While more recently his 'Move It' track as Floorplan was a major highlight on EPM Music's 10th anniversary compilation, 'EPM10'

Attracting attention from world-renowned DJs such as Daniel Bell, Rhadoo, Brawther, Samuel Deep and Mariano Mateljan, Nagoya based label RICE will be dropping it third edition. With high expectation, this third edition is a solo EP that will be a debut by Masa, a track maker who also works as a live duo Shibamasa with Shiba whose work previously released from Rice. Gradually builds up base with a bottom, bounced hat, unique synth and voice samples as A side. Rhythmic B side pulls while driving with fluffy shuffle and tricky tone. Both are bouncy DJ friendly tracks which are compiled fully with fun and ideas.

Some records you play so often that the sound will get worse and worse then when you actually want to grab a backup copy, it's frickin expensive....

Not Anymore!

Here we go, lucky number 3 we have Stefan Willenegger aka DJ Mastra with his Foyer EP, a nice blend between Tech House and Techno.

Give it a listen, you surely heard it in a club near you!

This is without a doubt the release that we are most often requested to reissue. Originally released in 1998 as the single ‘So Now…’ taken from Herbert’s influential ‘Around The House’ album with a collection of b-sides. In fact it plays more like a quadruple single release as all four tracks could easily be an A1 in their own right.

The only shake up from the original 12” is that the now seminal track ‘I Hadn’t Known (I Only Heard)’ sits up front having grown over the years from a little known b-side to one of the most played out club tracks from the pioneering producers huge back cat, as near a perfect piece of jazz inspired deep house that you are going to hear.

Onloop is excited to welcome Ketiov to the label for his debut release.

Speaking of the release, Ketiov says:

"Late Night People" is dedicated to everyone working hard in the club industry. To those who are pushing boundaries, moving things forward, and trying to make a change for the better. It’s a record for all the DJs and passionate dancers who bring the music to life on dance floors around the world. I wanted to make a 4 tracker EP with an old-school approach and have all 4 tracks very accessible and playable. You can play them and mix them together however you want, tools you can drop in any moment of your set.”

Heavy support coming in from Midland, Leon Vynehall, Shanti Celeste, Roi Perez, Partok & of course Moxie herself.

Finally the wait is over and after the appearance of some mysterious red dubplates, comes the fully fledged vinyl release. DJ Gamba makes his wax debut “Infinity” with 3 electric house tracks complemented by a hypnotic remix by Paolo Mosca, with each and every one designed to nuke the dance floor.

Ghost Recs returns with a naughty 3 tracker by the UK based duo Jive Talk - the A-side of which The Ghost have been spinning most gigs since receiving the dubplate cut promo in late 2021. Vids of said tune have created a veritable feeding frenzy in Track ID groups. Speculation of its origins can now be put to rest. It’s new. It’s on their label. And it’s absolutely essential!

Into The Woods marks the start of a brand new journey in its history with an iconic three-track EP from one of the most versatile producers in the scene, Sepp. 'About Us' leads the way as an iconic end-of-summer anthem, whilst 'Kiss' and "Delta Quandrant' standout as underground dancefloor bombs with twisted vocals, sharp basslines and unique drum patterns that keep the body moving.

Pluto’s Plan is back with another carefully selected four-tracker EP, featuring Man/ipulate, Marcos Coya, Existencia Pasajera & Mati F, and Lorenzo Slider. Hard-hitting grooves and pure nostalgia guaranteed.

Moments is the fifth release from Simpler Times and features 4 original cuts from David.

Two young British producers share their skills for this thoughtfully constructed futuristic two-tracker. Jasper Tygner, who has been championed by Radio 1's Jamz Supernova, Jaguar and Sian Eleri, is a rising star crafting blissed out electronica. Meanwhile fellow Londoner Joe Hertz has also skyrocketed to success, especially since last year's soulful jazz-inflected Current Blues EP.

These two collaborative tracks are delicate soundscapes that borrow and reimagine club sounds. 'Equals' forms a slowly swelling early hours pulse with futuristic melodies, at once gentle and danceable. 'Second Thought' has a hazier beat, with swooping post-rave synths to ease you from the clubnight out into the morning light.

A couple of our druggiest nugs to date coupled with a pair of our cruisiest cruisers make Reflex Blue’s ‘Fantasy Value’ one of our most playable EPs yet.

Floorplan, the father-daughter duo of Robert and Lyric Hood return with their first new productions since last summer's triumphant 'Victorious' album.
The new EP, which will be released on 12" vinyl and as digital download in June features two new tracks, which they have been road-testing at recent gigs and featured on their EPM podcast. The stripped-back 'Let The Church' straddles the realm between tough House and raw Techno with its hefty bassline, infectious claps and vocal cry, while 'Made Up In My Mind' focuses on a looped piano refrain and funked-up drumwork under a joyous gospel vocal, mixed down like only Floorplan can.

Also included is an hypnotic Robert Hood remix of 'He Can Save You' from 'Victorious', before Lyric Hood turns her hand to the future classic, 'Never Grow Old' for a deep mix that shows her love of House grooves and recently closed their BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix in May.

This summer they will also be bringing their new live set to Europe, alongside the high energy and spiritually uplifting DJ sets synonymous with Floorplan.
