House Vinyl New Releases - News

Fabled duo VIKTOR TALKING MACHINE offers the next Monaberry release. Their track LINE briefly brushes the club with a colorful groove, catchy claps, and sweaty breaks. Intense synth chords merge with hypnotic ethno-vocals into a rich track with a rousing vibe. Italo Brutalo injects line with a shot of 80s House, thus creating a fluorescend remix for the hottest hours at the club.
JOKO moves straight to the dancefloor, mesmerizing all senses with a fairytale arrangement, goosebumpy melodies, and a warm synth line. The vocals embrace body and mind while the breaks invite us to a long endorphine rush. Lauer pumps up his remix with a mighty groove, additional synths, and a tender touch of House.

tested 'Then After' EP by New York duo Wild Dark.
'...Stemming from a partnership with two decades of experience behind them, Wild Dark takes on contemporary song-writing and gives it a unique, thoughtful, modern-take using a wide spectrum of electronic music to tell a story. The duo, comprised of brothers Corey & Ryan Negrin, stray from cold digital samples in favour of a warmer approach to writing music. This allows them to merge house, techno and natural vocal work into a cohesive concept that uses soulful yet charming songwriting to nurture a sophisticated palate of contemporary work...'
Then After EP includes two tracks featuring Alex Who 'When we first met Alex there was chemistry off the bat. With inspiration of being young and free, the lyrics and vibe to "Why Not"came together with ease. As the production progressed, the darker tribal elements came to life.
We wanted this track to resonate with the free spirited. This track tends to be a favorite of night.
"Born By The River", A Happy Mistake. The vocals, the elements, the soul, all stemmed from animpromptu recording and this beauty was born. With a list of organic household recordings,accompanied by a warm low end, we aimed to create a track that defied all genres.
"Talky Talkie" is the most club oriented track of the EP, with a persistent groove and synth elements that work perfectly on the dancefloor.
"I'll Wait" brings our bohemian flavour to shine, a track that's comfortable being played anywherefrom Burning Man, lost in the desert to the deep warehouses of Brooklyn's underground.
The digital release will include a special remix by Superlounge, a German duo known for their smooth house vibes. This is a must have release, available first on the label's shop online;

A Brooklyn / London based record label that channels artist's most honest version of their
creations and shares it with the world through vinyl and digital platforms.

The next EP to land on VL Recordings comes from none other than the label chief himself, Hector.
Reanimating the label with a solid three-tracker named 'Rogue Traders', this is the producer's first solo dispatch on the imprint since his inaugural 'Jacuzzi Killer' EP in 2016.
'Rogue Traders' unleashes a torrent of brooding club cuts. Kicking off with the title track - a moody, cold-blooded weapon, and finishing on the thrumming bassline that supercharges 'Self Made', we're left feeling hellbent on finding Hector behind the booth.

Lone continues to thrive on his newly established label, Ancient Astronauts, with its second physical release of the year, the ‘Not Seeing Is a Flower’.Steering towards a new studio album from the Nottingham-based producer, the three-track EP takes its name from a Japanese idiom (見ぬが花), which suggests that reality cannot compete with imagination. Lapping at varied shades of the psyche, ‘Glyphic’ kicks things off with a heavyweight tribal techno cut inspired by Cutler’s experiences at Bass Coast festival this summer, fusing 303 acid with sweltering piano lines and otherworldly vocals for a transcendental dancefloor experience. The senses are heightened with title-track ‘Not Seeing Is A Flower’, which reaches beyond reality with slowly spoken samples effortlessly melting into a lush ambient techno backdrop reminiscent of early work from The Future Sound Of London, Orbital, and The Black Dog. Finally, ‘Boketto’ sees Lone embrace the same tone of downtempo trip-hop detailed on his albums ‘Lemurian’ and ‘Reality Testing’ with rolling percussion and meditative chimes drawing close on some of the producer’s most lavish work to date.

The new JWB comes courtesy of Pattern Drama (Get Physical, Akbal) his first EP into the label, he teamed up with a talent producer and singer Jonny Cruz for a four-track EP overflowing with personality.

From the deep groove Sin city' with it's warm vocal textures and 90´s allusions is a perfect track for dancing on a rooftop and watching a city descend into the underground.

We the people is propelled by a timeless sense of sound and immaculate production, synths, percusions and much love.

Obsession' incorporating ideas into his highly polished tracks resulting in an aesthetic that is owes as much to New York sound.

Waiting Around' Pattern references classic deep sounds, at the same time never losing his sense of identity and groove that characterise his music.

Travellin Music drops their first EP from Prakash. The EP features a stunning Jay Tripwire remix alongside a brace of stand out originals.

This EP sits solidly in the house mould, but offers a fresh and supremely refined edge that will make this a must buy for many djs. The versatility of the tracks are what really make this EP compelling.

Last Minute channels an almost minimalistic vibe, snappy beats and precise rhythmic flow give it a held tone vibe that you can really lose yourself in, perfect for warming things up, or changing gears.

That Room brings the punchy in this slowly building burner that mixes classic Chicago with thoroughly modern Tech. Subtle use of arrangement, stabs and intriguing percussive riffs keep the listener focussed whilst taking them far far away. A Dance floor burner.

Jay Tripwire drops his "spacial dubby" remix with his usual class, groovy bass and dubbed out synths take things in a different direction, adding a new dimension to an already versatile EP.

10th release on Delaphine. F0r th3 90'5 g4m3r5 8-)

Eindeutige Ansagen auf der KM019 seitens &ME. Hier werden massivste Floorpfunde serviert, unnachgiebiges Material, auf dem man sich gefälligst die Füße blutig zu tanzen hat. Hinkelsteine von Tracks, die unter sich jede Vocalhouse-Niedlichkeit, jedes Melodiechen und jeden sonstigen Firlefanz zermatschen.

Die A-Seite - Shallow' zum Beispiel, die ihren Namen wohl dem Zufallsgenerator zu verdanken hat, denn wo um Himmels willen ist denn hier die Seichtness zu finden Hocherregend, wie da immer wieder diese geile Subbasswelle alles unter sich begraben will. Adrenalinpeitschend, wie da die Kick so spröde vor sich hin marschiert. Architektonisch wertvoll, wie da die perkussiven Schichten aufgetürmt werden. Sämtliche Hirnstöme umpolend, wie da immer wieder dieses Hook-Echolot ins All rausfunkt und ortbar macht, wo der echte Rave zuhause ist. Und dann ist da noch - Heist' auf der Flipside, dessen Kick sich zur Aufgabe gemacht hat, pausenlos Backpfeifen zu verteilen, dessen Snare-Samples jeden Floor zusammen peitschen, dessen freidrehendes Break-Geklöppel augenblicklich hemmungslos macht und dessen anschließende Mono-Ton-Fanfare als endgültiges Signal zum Ausrasten in den Raum gestellt wird. Noch Fragen Die Antwort ist stets: Just because.

SUPERFETT RECORDS serves up release number four and again knocks it out of the park with a slick track from SHAF HUSE.

Though relatively new to the scene, the Milan producer has won fans for his shuffling, tech-meets-house productions and remixes on labels like Avotre. He's also producer with Music On resident Leon and has had his 'Mavado' tune named as an anthem by Ibiza party Circoloco during last years closing season.

- Get Em Up' is a techy, bristling tune with razor sharp hi hats and nebulous vocals drifting and shifting about the mix. It's a punchy but loose groove that really gets under your skin and builds through percussive energy to an arresting peak. When it drops again, the club will go wild as the robust drums groove on. Heavily already played and loved by Luciano, Loco Dice, The Martinez Brothers, Seth Troxler, Jamie Jones and Patrick Topping to just name a few big players. :)

This then is an excellent 4th release on SUPERFETT.

A mysterious treasure that’s been tearing through the underground finds its way to the surface - ‘Steady’ is a stripped-back techy roller with a UKG tinge that packs a bone-shaking sub bass punch. Hold tight for a warped, well-loved vocal that fits this minimal powerhouse like a dream and is sure to cause a ruckus across dancefloors worldwide.

Essential, vinyl only, hand-stamped, 180g goodness…buy on sight!

Boris Bunnik aka Conforce returns to Delsin for his fifth album on the label. Across eight tracks he delivers a wide range of styles yet keeps the ethereal and textural aesthetic of his sound recognizable at all points. His atmospheric approach combined with razor sharp percussion and intricately programmed synths make "Dawn Chorus" one of his most adventurous albums to date. Flirting with his Versalife moniker at times, this album leans to his experimental works, strongly optimized for dance floors using his unique sounddesign skills and unstoppable drift to reinvent himself.

DREAMSCAPE

… is a protest album, a sonic scream, a re-evolution with a certain flavor to the first years of music made in Detroit in the 90s ...

Ellum Audio welcomes impressive new school talent Raxon for four suitably cosmic techno tracks. Raxon hails from Egypt, is Barcelona based and has risen through the ranks with a well-crafted and emotive techno sound on labels like Diynamic, Kompakt, Cocoon and more. This summer he has been playing the revered Resistance Ibiza at Privilege as well as festivals like DGTL. Though he has made big moves in recent years, Raxon has been deeply involved in the scene for more than two decades.
Opener ‘Andromena’ is a tense and futuristic groove that keeps you in suspense. Synths and chords ride up and down the scales without resolving and will make for a rapturous effect in the clubs. The superb ‘Vortex Cortex’ is stripped back, driving techno with a sleek bassline and sci-fi sounds making it all the more cinematic. The whole track feels like it is going to take off and carry you away to the stars. After the scene-setting ambience of ‘Introspect’ - a short and atmospheric interlude with more cosmic sounds, pulses and sonar blips - the excellent ‘Second Contact’ closes things out. A dark and prickly jam with expertly programmed drums that are broken and punchy, this one is about creating real intergalactic energy and is does that in style. This is Raxon’s most accomplished EP yet, and as such is perfectly at home on tgmthe mighty Ellum Audio.

A spellbinding performer who takes the crowd into another dimension, the Spanish based American is just as adventurous in the
studio and once again casts another magical spell with this new EP.

‘When The Lights Are Out’ is a ready-made anthem that serves up a seven-minute techno trip of the highest order. It is deep and masterfully melodic, of course, with slick drums setting an inviting mid-tempo pace and the melancholic chords adding lasting emotion to the groove. A heartfelt female
vocal is the centrepiece that will get hands in the air this summer and ensure this record stays firmly lodges in record boxes worldwide.

Next to an instrumental, there is a Late Night Mix that is more driving and electrifying, with glossy synths shining bright in the expansive skies above the drums.

This is the sound of a melodic techno master at work and is another landmark release for both artist and label.

Soso Tharpa is one of DC's best young producers and the A Side here, "Decode" has been the secret weapon in a ton of DJ mixes over the last year. A true wtf acid beast, "Decode" bangs traditionally and levels the place.

KUSI Records proudly presents Livio & Roby on their 7th release. For the first time we skipped the remix on this one because the Romanian DJ Team delivers two dope originals you definitely shouldn't miss.

Widely acclaimed techno pioneer Nicole Moudaber has delivered the release of her 'Adoption' EP, a two-track production on Nicole's own MOOD label which sees the dynamic producer tackle two tracks from one of the most important innovators of dance music since the 90s, Moby.

First up she offers a uniquely dark and twisted rework of 'Like a Motherless child', pitching down Moby's vocals to create a deep demonic sound, verging into a range of immersive textures.

On the flip side Moudaber spins a heavy and grinding feel on her remix of Moby's 'Mere Anarchy', (taken from 2018 album 'Everything was beautiful, and nothing hurt'). Moudaber packs the mix with haunting melodies, with the subtle use of orchestral sounds adding a hypnotic feel to the release.

Nicole's MOOD has served as a home for an array of the most intriguing productions of recent times since launching 5 years ago, previously hosting names such as Carl Craig, Alvaro Am, Pan-Pot, Pleasurekraft and Carl Cox, who Nicole recently collaborated with for her milestone 50th release on the imprint. An event promoter, record label founder, radio host, and one of the most passionately followed DJ/producers in the world, Nicole Moudaber is a one-woman army marching her muscular take on techno all over the globe.

After a sold-out release on Courtesy of Balance which gained huge support and plays from some key DJs, Nat Wendell returns to his own imprint with another dancefloor heavy, 3track EP. "Reality" kicks of the 3 track EP with some pulsating stabs, mixed with trippy underlays over a swingy stripped back Deep House rhythm. Flip the record and you're presented with a bouncy, yet dubby adventure "Can't Stop". The title track "Renditions" doesn't let up with any of the deep energetic tones set. Here Nat teases out a deeper yet up tempo way to end the release.

Following on from last year's Bump It EP, Sammy W Tobus join musical
forces once again, this time with a fiery three-part offering for Hot Creations.
Acid Terrace opens the EP - a rumbling roller that cuts a fierce groove
complimented by intriguing vocal samples. Shake It plunges in full power with its
heavy-hitting bassline and rhythmic beat. Closing the package, Jam Tight is a funky
number that chops and blends vocals alongside pads, adding classic house
elements that create a solid, dancefloor burner.

The pairing of Sammy W & Tobus first came to our attention back in 2011. Their
fresh approach to DJ sets has garnered support from some of the scene's top DJs.
They seamlessly blend and blur the lines between genres, creating their own sound
using elements of tech-house, funk and hip-hop. They've released music on 8bit,
Repopulate Mars, Roush, Mr. Nice Guy, Brock Wild, as well as running their own
labels Tobus X and Tobus Limited.

With his latest No. 1 success 'Don't Stop' Gorge proved again his skills and instincts how to create timeless dancefloor fillers. Nearly 10 months later he's back on his imprint with two more bangers to confirm his exceptional status. There's just no way around Gorge.

Dutch Techno master Orlando Voorn has opened up his archive for the second essential instalment of an ongoing artist focused series brought to you by new imprint Above Board Projects. The compilation will be spread across 2 double 12" volumes and will feature tracks from many of Voorn's pseudonyms including; Fix, Baruka, The Ghetto Brothers, Mute & many more. We are proud to introduce the first of a 2-part archival collection entitled 'Diligence'. Each track featured on the compilation has been carefully selected and programmed in conjunction with Orlando Voorn and the Above Board Projects team. Voorn has an extremely long and storied career in making music and is severely underrated as a producer in our humble opinion. His DJ skills are, of course, legendary, with him winning the prestigious DMC mixing championships in 1986 in his native Holland and making a career as one of the country's leading Hip-Hop DJ's. As a producer he has long been linked to numerous legendary producers and releases, counting labels such as Fragile, Metroplex and more as homes for his output. His association and collaborations with Detroit have been the stuff of legend since day one and some of the music contained within these compilations celebrate that while showcasing some of the more overlooked tracks from the man's more than extensive catalogue. Part 2 opens with the minimalistic bladerunner Techno of Voorn & Juan Atkins' Infiniti classic 'Game One', a true modern classic, also featured is the rolling, paranoia inducing late night groove of 'Dream World' from one of Voorn's more obscure projects Complex, all showcasing a wide variety of styles and sounds. Flawless selections from the early 90's sitting alongside later productions only go to show how diverse and talented an artist Voorn is and how fresh and vital his music still is today. An essential collection for any serious techno lover. All tracks fully licensed and remastered with the full permission of Orlando Voorn. Remastering and lacquers by Curvepusher.
