House Vinyl New Releases - News

Aurea Music Lab reaches its fourth release commanded by Marcos Coya, Ultrahigh, Delorean and Aleexe, delivering again four different weapons oriented to the dancefloor.

The Uruguayan producer Marcos Coya opens this EP with “Shadows”, a super groovy track full of acid and sitting trance synths that will make clubbers fly high on a ruling melody that is constantly moving.
For the ones that doesn´t know, “Scoville” is the unit for measuring spiciness, and this track by Ultrahigh is full of it. Expect heavy low frequencies dancing alongside spooky melodic synths and classic 909 drums.

On the B side, a smooth and playful trip from Delorean's “Designated Driver” ruled by different elements that come along together making every second of this track full of groove and happy melodies count.
Lastly Aleexe comes into play with “Effluence”, where you'll find some special soundscapes and extremely dynamic vibes. Pumping bassline, gated synths and swingy percussions on it are capable of moving even your grandma´s feet..

Having impressed with his 2019 debut album on Negentropy, the breaks/tech-house/minimal techno fusion of Rhythm Tension, Zweizig has been given a chance to showcase his wares on Constant Sound's popular Constant Black offshoot. The headline attraction is undoubtedly opener 'Manipulate Our Reflections', a spaced-out chunk of hypnotic late-night science that wraps wonky, Villalobos style electronic noises and pulsing pads around a locked in (but also surprisingly swinging) tech-house groove. Relic provides a chunkier and groovier remix that boasts darker noises and a more beefed-up sound, while bonus cut 'Vvoid' is a twisted, undulating acid-jacker.

Sex Tapes From Mars second outing into space comes from 28-year-old Parisian, Muelsa, delivering four high-octane club thrillers.

A1 - 'Across The Pampa' is spacious in old school lighting, relying on a deep-set rapidly shifting bassline and carnivalesque sample twangs to lift it to a melodic yet high-energy EP starter. This is the kind of track the could as easily be the last and first record at a party.

'Wild Nights' brings what it states in the title; grizzly low end, tinkering upper keys that shimmer psychedelic. The notes that the first breakdown brings paired with that vintage vocoder will give even the most stush raver goosebumps.

On the flip, 'No Joke (G-Knews Mix)' despite the playful sampling perhaps brings the deepest, if not certainly freakiest cut on the record. It combines elements of NY house with rolling nu-school acid and arduous, bumpy drum work.

To close things off, 'Pretty Little Monsters', further bends b-lines and star-line synth twinkles with a maliciously satisfactory attack on the senses. There are cinematic squeals at nearly every frequency, making for a full-bodied finale to a very well rounded second release on this exciting new label.

Crosstown Rebels get set to unleash one of the year’s most highly anticipated records ‘Can’t Leave You’, from one of the biggest stars of 2011, Maceo Plex. The flawless ‘Sweating Tears EP’, is a double headed dancefloor delight – with the equally as hot ‘Stop You Hate’ on the flip.

Hot on the heels of his anthemic ‘Vibe Your Love’, superb ‘Your Style’ and killer ‘Life Index’ album (Crosstown Rebels) – Maceo Plex is one of the hottest properties in dance music right now!

‘Can’t Leave You’ is without doubt a smash record of epic proportions. Already winning over legions of fans after its outings at some of the world’s biggest dance events over the last few months, the demand for this record is now reaching fever pitch. ‘Can’t Leave You’ is Maceo Plex truly arriving at his signature sound. Eric’s fusion of lush instrumentals and disco bounce with a darker vein of rumbling bass – along with funky hand-claps and guitars and lively synth lines, amounts to an irresistible concoction of immaculately produced dancefloor disorder.

B-Side ‘Stop Your Hate’ is going to be a fellow summer terrace favourite with an epic build and disco breakdown that showcases Maceo Plex at the peak of his technical prowess. Just as stomping as ‘Can’t Leave You’ but with a murkier quality ‘Stop Your Hate’ is Maceo flexing his interplanetary funk muscle while delivering an affirmative message to the party crowd.

Noho records presents Mandala, the upcoming groundbreaking sound of brenta. It's a new project by Jay Green Cami Sagats and Madi Grein born from a 3-days holiday to Ibiza, filmed by Fiesta & Bullshit at Ibizenco. Everything you need to see the sunset is a great taste of funk groove and the Cami warm vocals. Bomber drives croma is a lifestyle, abs pleasure to pump the electric bass up. Highly Recommended!!

A new white label series has arrived. TCR. One track per side, 45rpm, limited press, exclusive for top cats.

We're pleased to welcome Jazzam & Cesar Green on board with them brand new EP. What better than an insane original track with 4 bomb remixes by pretty good artists like: Kaysin, Andre Salmon, Greg Pidcock, Anthony Megaro and more.

...Already Used merges his moody, groovy production skills & songwriting for a record who's meaning extends far beyond the club. Deep Club resident's "Marta" has been one of the most talked about tracks on the massive Gays Hate Techno 2.0 comp.

Constant Sound co-owner James 'Burnski' Burnham delivers a stonking pair of garage-flecked house tracks that offer up no nonsense dancefloor attitude in spades. 'Shout' is all about its monster rhythmic framework, with economic splashes of synths on the side simply maintaining the flavour and a properly full on old skool breakdown. Flip track 'Remember' leans a little further towards UK garage with its sugar sweet female vocal snippets, but the central groove hustles and bustles along with maximum weightiness, making it suitable for any number of differing dancefloors.

Orizont is the new vinyl imprint from the Romanian DJ Tiberiu, culminating several years of touring and crossing paths with like-minded artists. Orizont 01 gathers four tracks from his friends Kirik, Yuda, Cojoc, and Zgaav, passionate artists keen on the reduced aesthetics of dance music.

Four tracks that aim at different dancefloor moments spanning from the warm morning after-hours to the euphoria-infused peak-time moments: Kirik's exquisitely warm rolling grooves, Yuda's elastic basslines, and quirky bass stabs; the slightly paranoid, beat-repeated synth cuts and acidic grooves of Cojoc; And the expansive atmospheres and full-bodied basslines of Zgaav.

The first time I heard of Mattes Schwarz, someone called him 'Stecken-Mattes'. Stecken was a defining, if almost secret, Cologne dance music venue of the 2000s and early 2010s, a minuscule basement without curfew and seemingly any other restrictions, where the up to twelve hour long DJ-sets felt like a tightly knit circle of friends just playing records to each other: The selectors from the night before and the one after reliably sitting right in front of the just over one meter long stretch of the bar that formed its booth, never missing out on a chance to see their mates play, heads nodding and hands clapping through the smoke-filled air, until someone started to sing along, and eventually everyone got up for a few hours of moves on the 15 square meter dancefloor, on a grey Wednesday or Saturday morning at 7 or just as well 10 am.
Mattes Schwarz started DJing in 1982 at age twelve, inspired by, as many West-German kids, the GI-DJs of the roller skating rinks around US army bases. While he got heavily involved in Cologne's BMX scene of the 90s, he never really stopped, and during the main years of being known as Stecken-Mattes and playing there each Friday night, he coincidently lived in Magazine record's homebase, North- Eastern Cologne's old harbour.
One day after Stecken's closure had sent restructuring ripples through the city - I imagine him getting up in the morning and taking a deep breath - he decided to send Magazine a few tracks.
'I Don't Know' is Mattes Schwarz' first release.

Noraj Cue returns home to Happy Camper Records to introduce his latest musical adventure ‘Inner Glitch’, a fantastic full length album series. It comes as an emblematic sampler on vinyl followed by a trilogy of digital releases.

This Dutch artist likes organic sounds filled with real world dust and compelling grooves. He explores every corner of the house realm and always makes musical stories that keep you locked. Constantly tinkering with drum and synth, Noraj Cue has applied his unique talent for experimentation to one studio and one album.

And in a career that spans 15 years, his creative touch has impacted the EP's of Tale and Tone, Katermukke and Connaisseur Recordings.
Noraj Cue offers up a musical thesis with Inner Glitch. He explores what he posits is the three aspects that comprise the being of human beings. He suggests that in life we are either presenting our outer self (polished, camouflaged, rehearsed), our inner self (vulnerable, protective, emotional) or our core self (connected to life itself and fundamental to the fulfillment of our self-expression).

His music explores the amorphous space of each self and the indistinct places they meet. "Your feelings and perceptions, is that you? Or are these them?” The exploration of which has taken this courageous artist on a musical epic. And now, simply by closing your eyes after hitting play, so can you. Things kick off with the lush deep house synth-scapes of 'This Won't Last' and take in wonky melodic grooves.

Tim Jackiw of Ukrainian/Australian descent grew up in Adelaide, where he is making impressive sounds on his Amiga 500 computer since the early nineties. As the techno scene thrived during that period he began to explore the cities clubs and radio stations and contributed with DJing and numerous radio shows up till 2005 when he moved to Melbourne for a permanent home. Since then he has been producing and releasing on many quality labels and running his own underground label "Offworld Records Australia"

The Amnesia EP is a follow up to 2019’s successful "Monuments" LP containing 4 tracks of deep, dubby and moving aquatic housey techno. Lucid takes us down a mysterious corridor of twilight space and fleeting hypnagogic imagery, deep basses and layered percussion threaded with Tim's signature live improvisation throughout. Next up is Amnesia the title track with its haze and watery backdrop taking us through a long distant fragmented memory, a broken and decayed film reel recalled through lush expanded pads and rich strings. Side B lifts us up into Pillars of Creation, a deep space cosmic interpretation of universal birth. Finishing off the EP is Gravity loss a funky string laden exploration using off beat percussion and slivers of delayed melody swimming through the atmosphere of some distant planetary sky we can only imagine.

After a few silent years, the Beau Mot Plage crew is finally relaunching its label with a kick !

The record showcases the skills of BMP’s co-founder, Alexis Namur. The Frenchman has been crafting his sound quietly for many years, finding influences in the music he digs.

The result is a 4 track debut EP that oscillates between straight-forward tech-house groovers and subtle slow-burners, sprinkled with that 90’s progressive vibe that we love so much.

GMUF is ready for the next chapter and brings with JUZZ some sparkling grooves to the floor. Our Zurich based italian friend names it beautiful life EP! Enjoy...

Extremely happy to present our TGS002, produced by Rowan and Bessone and remixes by our boy Vern and Kirik's debut, only 200x ,no repress.

welcome to a new planet of music

20/20 Vision are back with another stellar compilation of blistering new talent unearthed and curated by Luther Vine.AA

FOR04 kicks off with a contribution from the London based duo, Kassian. Joe & Warren's partnership is both prolific and diverse. Over a short period of time, they've amassed an impressive back catalogue with in-demand releases on labels such as Phonica White, Heist and their own imprint Faux Poly. Never the ones to rest on their laurels, they continue to quest for the new cutting-edge sound and deliver it here with a track titled 'Parallel'. It is an elastic minimalist driven groover, that mergers a perfect proportion of acid synth lines with taut drum workout. The end result is sure to keep your locked in on that dance floor.A

Next up we have Casey Spillman with aptly titled 'Full Circle'. In a short period of time Casey's distinct groove laden output has landed him with releases on Fuse, Constant Sound and Locus to name but a few. For some who know their labels that list alone is enough to provoke an involuntary movement in the extremities. Wait till you make the 'Full Circle'! The groove here is locked in the well pronounced ringing drum shuffle and is accentuated by the opaque yet dreamy dubbed out chords and scattered vocal chops. Add a freight train of a baseline provided in the mix and you can guaranty a healthy rumble on the dance floor.A

Flip and awe! 'Hour Glass' is a bomb of rare dance floor destructive power. Crafted by the label's curator Luther Vine and modular wizard Gregorio Soave, prior to its release on wax 'Hour Glass' has been tested as a secret weapon on most main & unsuspecting dance floors of UK's capital. The result is consistently spectacular.AARight from the start the dubbed up relentless moogy bassline aims for the jugular and takes you on a hypnotic bender of a trip. Cosmic synth licks, swinging drum saults and deep pulsating chord stabs all aid the journey to that night's elusive climax.

FOR004 waves goodbye with a fresh collaboration from East London's finest, Thoma Bulwer and the esteemed Fabric resident, Anna Wall. 'Spontaneity' is an emotive, bittersweet deep house gem. With sparking synth lines, weighty 909 kicks swinging down low, and glistening euphoric modulating pads, this number is designed to bid you goodbye on a romantic, positive note and fill you up with optimism until we meet again for a new instalment of Fragments of Reality.A

The next release on LIZ EDWARDS – SWAG CLASSIC LABEL is from LEN LEWIS. Len needs no introduction as he was one of the true originators of the early Tech-House sound. Releasing many classics on labels like SWAG – POODLE and his own imprint JOMO. The two cuts featured on this release are – DARK CAVERN. Which originally came out on Poodle Records in 2002, and was recorded upstairs at SWAG records, in the SWAG studio, and was a firm favourite of DJ MATTHEW B. It was also bit of an anthem at all those early London parties and clubs, Like THE END – WIGGLE & KERFUFFLE. The next cut is BAR-B-QUES & BALLGAMES. This came out on SWAG RECORDS in 1999 and was one of Len’s first releases. Both of these tunes, together, would set you back about £60 on Discog’s for a mint copy, but here we have them both on one 12’ - both re-mastered and sounding better than ever. Only 300 pressed so don’t sleep on this.

Deep Detroit Techno from two of the cities finest.

LA born, Berlin based Huerta drops a real gem of an e.p. here in the form of 'Amaso', showing just how polished a producer he has become. The title track gives off an air of Italian dream house coupling an immersive rhythm with sweeping chord progressions and luscious keys. 'Fake Leather Whatever' builds on that nostalgic feeling, marrying a timeless breakbeat with cosmic pads and blissful piano melodies. On the B side, 'Don't Be Gentle, It's A Rental' ventures down a more hard hitting path with the dancefloor definitely at the front of Huerta's mind, whilst still maintaining that atmospheric feel. Finally, bringing it back full circle, 'Reverse Thread' layers those emotive elements with an otherworldly synth line which draws you deep into an irresistible melting pot of grooves.

Decay lead from the front once more with Decade Made 7, another vital various artists EP which marks the label’s 7 year anniversary and features red hot underground talents Mihai Popoviciu, James Dexter, Christian Burkhardt and Ray Mono.

The goal of Decay Records has always been to push quality, hypnotic, dubby grooves withoutfocusing on trends or hype, something they have done consistently since their launch in 2013 and continue to do here with their 7th birthday release, Decay Made 7.

Kicking off this latest VA from the label is Romanian Mihai Popoviciu, considered one of the most innovative eastern European producers of electronic music today. He opens with ‘Biology’, a bubbly, deep cut groove with slick hits gliding up top. It’s a track full of warmth that sinks you into a glazed-eye reverie. Dessous, Lefroom and Inermu associate James Dexter is a young but vital talent who represents the new wave of artists that are simmering in the London deep house underground. His ‘And Then’ has long legged, dubbed out kick drums that make for a cavernous groove, whilst smeared, warped chords fill in the spaces and ensure an ever-headier atmosphere as things roll on.

Christian Burkhardt has long been at the heart of the freshest tech house, putting out his well-designed loops on mainstay labels. Here he serves up ‘Quanta’, an icy-cool track with tripped out sonic details and sci-fi effects that make for real mind music. Last of all, former Mono_Cult resident and now Fuse and Moxy Music associate Ray Mono brings his expert minimal to the EP with ‘Uncut.’ It is a tough, bumping cut with razor sharp design and a pristine sense of late night funk finished with neon synth colours.

These are four perfectly designed and infectious tracks that are both slick and compelling.

Matthias Meyer and a trio label of debutants make up the fourth instalment of the much-loved ‘Watergate Affairs’ series.
Initiated in 2016, the series assembles a collection of top-quality tracks that otherwise could not fit into Watergate’s busy release schedule, such is the strong pool of music the label draws from.
Emerging Dutch producer Budakid joins the label with ‘Orrery’, after previously making an impact with cuts on Last Night On Earth, Einmusika and Lost & Found. The track’s dreamy soundscapes and otherworldly energy make for a transcendental mood maker. Matthias Meyer is suitably superb with ‘Interlude’, as delicate strings and a muffled melody line gently wash against a shore of sparse beats. Henri Bergmann & Julian Wassermann link for ‘Maenad’, as punchy grooves bring the EP into peak-time territory as a multilayered chord pattern hits with a satisfying headrush. Danish artist Nandu rounds out the package with ‘My Mystery Is A Mystery’. It’s the kind of succulent end-of-nighter every set needs as uplifting pads, stirring keys and a buttery bassline glide together in sweet unison.

As the System Error tree extends its branches, a new concept is born, Fresh Tunez - a safe haven for dancefloor dynamic beats from an array of shining producers under the System Error radar. Inaugurating the Berlin based project is Fantasy Attitude and Polarity founder, Luca Piermattei. Quirky and innovative sound structures from the Italian producer, quilted with unique emotion, yet infectious funk.

Being selfish, is one of the good things about running your own label. If you please, you can just try and re-release that certain record that you always wanted for yourself, but never could get your hand on it. Now, you can just edit it the way you always wanted it to be (oh, those fade-outs...) and press it up. This is one of these occasions. When Kalk (the collaborative project of Philippe Heinen and Joffrey Becker) was released on Julien Briffaz' label Brif in 1999, I just had started to DJ out at a Club in Darmstadt (the late Café Kesselhaus) and the restrained, yet punchy house tracks symbolized what I liked about deep house back then: a mellow alternative to the BPM hunt and rigid attitude in mainstream techno, while not losing itself in chin-stroking wisdom or pesky noodling. It seemed that there weren't too many around with the same desire. Otherwise 'Akasha' wouldn't have remained a diamond in disguise and not what Morgan Geist so aptly named an 'unclassic". By his definition, that is: an old by and large forgotten record that would have deserved to be hit. If you take discogs as an indicator, more and more people start to think so though. Here is your second chance to obtain a copy of the spirit of Kalk. Mildly edited and restored in the best human-possible way. Mind you, it's old house music from days of Yore. If you look for the production values of a Phil Collins, please go somewhere else. DJ GJ

New York's Marcos Cabral steps up for his first full release on Dimensions Recordings, with the Nature Walk EP.

Following on from his epic Prochainement masterpiece on Dimensions 002, the EP provides a glimpse into the mind of a well-established and hugely respected artist.

Nature Walk is a broad EP that demonstrates just why Marcos's records have been finding their way into a multitude of DJs' bags for the last fifteen years.

Kamarads Records is finally back
and presents its second release made with four European producers from France & Italy,
Jef K, icon of the Parisian house has collaborated on a track with Ilyes from the new generation of electronic producers based in France and you will also find Reda Dare who you already know, an important component of the new landscape of French house.
For Italians: Nicola Brusegan, ambassador and prolific producer of a fresh and romantic vintage deep house, made of analog synths and Mpc grooves and textures from Venice, and Laurent Ci who produced more of a minimalist house tinted with Romanian atmosphere and atmospheres.
The second Kamarads reference will be a Vinyl Only.

SB Traxx returns for their second outing, flexing four original club Traxx from Anthony Fade. 'Mind Games' opens things up - a Jackin' acid drum machine workout awash with 707 hits and 303 squelch. The A2 'M1 Cause Everyones Gotta Have Fun' then hits you with a piano rave weapon - gritty and hard hitting coupled with those classic M1 stabs. Flip it over for a top-down summer anthem in 'I'm Weak' marrying RnB tinged vocals and shuffling rhythms before 'Dr. Ice' closes it out with a golden-era hip hop inspired deep house groover.

Back to home and back again. Get in touch is once more doing the splits between their current habitations.

Berlin fellow Sauna takes over Side A with proper heat, cutting chords and a bumpy bassline, followed by groove driven and quirky breaks.
