House Vinyl New Releases - News

Cinthie joins the roster of Aus Music this November with her 'Trust' EP, comprising three original cuts from the Berlin artist. Founder of several imprints, namely Beste Modus, we_r_house and 803 Crystalgrooves, as well as her own label collective and record store brand Elevate, native Berliner Cinthie has become a highly respected figure in electronic music in her hometown and across the globe over the past few years. Most notably known for her long standing as a DJ primarily, yet recent months have seen Cinthie build her own studio and dedicate much of her time to carefully crafting the music she's always longed to. This new EP for Will Saul's Aus Music is a product of this time spent and marks the next phase for Cinthie's productions. Title-track 'Trust' leads on the package, fuelled by an infectious marimba style percussive melody, bright tension building strings and a bumpy bass hook whilst crunchy drums and a spellbinding arpeggio leads further fuels the emotive, subtly blooming feel. 'Lost At Sea' follows next, employing a loosely flowing organic drum groove, jazzy Rhodes chords and resonant moog style synth licks to create yet another classy twist on contemporary house music. 'Hip Swing' then rounds out the package on a deeper tip with heavily swung, up-tempo drums at the forefront whilst murky bass reverberations, choppy stabs and ethereal pads subtly ebb and flow in the depths.

DON'T ASK WHY - JUST BANG THE NAILS

One of the members of the duet Snuff Crew, Snuffo, in his solo project, marks a clear direction towards New Beat, EBM, Electro and other primal sounds. In Desire Burns EP' he hands a sample of his sound in the form of 5 tracks: Her Mind Goes Space', Ghosts Of Solitude' and Body To Body (KSTS Remix)' can be found on side A, with a more experimental and sooth tone. While it's B-Side offers a more focused dance floor approach with it's tracks Body To Body' and Desire Burns', two New Beat Jacking cuts that will make you move your feet!

With Muna Musik Mathias Kaden created a label that brings together like-minded and talented artists and friends. Muna 006 features tracks from Steve Bug, Tobi Neumann, Magit Cacoon und Uncanny Valley's Jakob Korn.

A1: Tobi Neumann - All The Soldiers

Our long-time friend Tobi Neumann, who has one of the finest music studios you can find in Berlin, gave us this stunning analogue monster track and we can't be happier! His output is very rare rare and Muna Musik is honored to release his latest track All His Soldiers'.

A2: Magit Cacoon - Deadman AF

We welcome the "bundle of energy", Magit Cacoon from Tel Aviv, to our Muna family. She is known for her releases on UponYou and adds a deep dancefloor killer to this EP-plus a digital bonus track, an emotional song for quiet moments at home.

AA1: Steve Bug - Where´s the Clap

Steve Bug is one of these super talented guys who inspired the Muna club over the past 20 years with a multitude of releases on Raw Elements and Pokerflat. We finally got our hands on one of his amazing productions for Muna 006!

AA2: Jacob Korn - Mindfulness

Deep East German power from Dresden! Analog-genius Jakob Korn is working as a music teacher, besides his profession as dj, producer, label owner of Uncanny Valley and being a great person. Good thing there are still guys like him, who have passion and a deep understanding for real music.

It's...album time on WPH! Metrobox has cooked us up a collection of original, mindblowing, swinging and most of all beautiful tracks ranging from total dancefloor devastation to introspective journeys.
Exactly what an album should be like if you ask us.

With our regular 12' series both coming to end some people thought that WPH would end as well. You should've known better, because there is too much gorgeous music coming from our small WPH family to just let other labels shine with it. And so we have decided to throw caution into the wind and embark on a new story. A story in which our artists get to tell their story by means of a full album.

At the heart of Metrobox' sound is a love for Moog, 909 and SH 101 sounds, combined with a knack for seductive melodies and a healthy dose of vocal action. Two collaborations with WPH head honcho Red D and Belgian MC champ TLP add some extra oldskool flavor to the proceedings.

And yes, we are well aware of the fact that double or triple albums are heavy on your budget and that you all prefer to shell out 15 euro for a one-sided limited Detroit release instead of a 12' with three tracks you like...so this album will come in three separately available 12's, giving you complete buyer freedom.

Sagats & Madi Grein back from the space aboard vostok3 with the upcoming
groundbreaking sound of brenta. Let yourself be embraced by the flow of these guys,
they will set the dance floor on fire. Right after Mandala project with their mate jay green
& cami, the duo keeps on creating house music, like their colleagues the analogue cops,
steve murphy & dj octopus.. the sound of brenta is back. Highly Recommended!!

About We Play House Recordings

We Play House Recordings - WPH - is the work of Belgian DJ & producer Red D. Started 10 years ago to release the music of his friend san Soda, the label had (and has) the aim to release house music in all its shapes and forms. WPH's house ethics date back to the days where house was just a name for music that was played in clubs. There is no such thing as tech house, no such thing as deep house or minimal, there is simply (house) music, good or bad.

We Play House Recordings is lovingly led by Red D (real name Bart Van Neste), one of Belgium's leading underground music figures. Be it in his role as DJ, A&R, promoter, music panel host or general nitelife instigator, Red D does things with passion, humor and a healthy dose of keeping-both-feet-firmly-on-the-ground...with a twist...

WPH was started in 2007, so it takes no math genius to know that in 2017 the label is celebrating its 10 years anniversary. Running from the spring till winter 2017 this anniversary will be celebrated with special vinyl releases, a triple CD, a digital compilation, a Spotify playlist and a series of label nights all over Belgium and beyond. True to form the compilation will have WPH classics but also a BIG bunch of new material from core artists of the label like Locked Groove, San Soda, Kiani & His Legion, Fabrice Lig and many more.

Superb, diverse, driving DJ tool Techno set

Ilija Rudman presents Andre Espeut 'Tears To Sound'
featuring Ron Trent Mix
Over the last decade and a half, Ilija Rudman has been responsible for many high quality releases, delivering distinctly warm, sun-kissed, analogue-rich material on labels including Bearfunk, Instruments Of Rapture, Compost , 20/20 Vision, Electric Minds, Is It Balearic Recordings, Rong Music , Classic Music Company and of course, his own Red Music imprint.
Even so, the Croatian has rarely made anything quite as deep and sensual as the material showcased on this first full EP for NuNorthern Soul. Top billing must go to the "Aquapella" version of "Tears To Sound", a spellbinding acapella cut that puts the enchanting vocals of storied soul man Andre Espeut front and centre.When Rudman sent the track to old friend Phil Cooper, the NuNorthern Soul boss thought it sounded like something he'd hear from US deep house legend Ron Trent. So, he approached the Prescription co-founder to see if he fancied remixing it. As you might expect, the results are astonishingly good.
Rich in rising and falling new age melodies, darting synthesizer motifs, languid piano flourishes and heavy analogue bass, Trent's wonderfully ultra-deep interpretation naturally gives pride of place to Espeut's seductive vocal. Even by the Chicagoan's infamously high standards, his epic Vocal Mix is incredibly special.
All versions of the single also feature two other original Rudman productions, both of which are wonderfully deep and dreamy. "Distant Feelings" is fluid, deep and yearning, with twinkling electric piano motifs and dreamy chords reclining over sizzling drum machine cymbals, no-nonsense beats and a gently pulsing analogue bassline. Those who enjoy the Balearic side of Rudman's work should also check out "Deep Sensation", a jazzy and breezy fusion of tumbling, vibraphone style melodies, rolling electric piano riffs and rubbery boogie bass. Both tracks are every bit as magical in their own way as the producer's thrilling Andre Espeut collaboration.

The young Dutch DJ & producer Lewski debuts on Darko Esser's Wolfskuil Limited series with 'Folkloric Human' EP presenting four fine Electro / Techno cuts.The title track opens the EP with a blend of old school electro and distinctly modern techno, featuring rhythmic bouncy beats and a playful built up perfect for the floor, followed by 'Phase Mistress', a vintage sounding beauty with captivating bass sequences and plenty of analog flavor.'EreBus' kicks off the B-side with its twisted drive, cyborg samples and sinister attitude that justifies it's name been derived from the mythological god of darkness. The atmospheric, Detroit flavored 'Decommissioned Androids' rounds the EP off with tight basslines and relentless analog madness.Lewski's debut EP on Patron Records last year gained support by the likes of Ben UFO, DJ Stingray and Umwelt. Lewski is part of a select cut of young artists who are absorbing electro's legacy, carrying it into the future and with his release on Wolfskuil Limited we can be sure that the future looks very promising.

Mella Dee’s Warehouse Music drops its second release of 2019 this summer with ‘When You Gonna Learn’, the label debut 12” from Work Them Records boss, Spencer Parker.

Berlin-based Parker rarely releases outside of his own label or Radio Slave’s Rekids imprint these days, but having struck up a friendship with Mella Dee following the former’s support of his ‘Techno Disco Tool’, the idea of a release was cemented last year. The fruits of this produced ‘When You Gonna Learn’, which comes complete with a remix from Mella Dee as well as a dub version from Parker.


As you’d expect from both artists and label, ‘When You Gonna Learn’ is an urgent, gritty powerhouse of a cut. A discordant top line threads itself through the track while Parker pushes the limits of tension building strings and drum fills to extreme effect. His dub pairs things back somewhat, allowing the main riff to do the bulk of the work while Mella Dee delivers a classy but no less forceful late-night roller of a remix.

After his first release on Soundtravels, the Aspiration EP ST003, Dircsen is back with another astonishing EP which you can easily call a sequel to Aspiration EP.

Four heavyweight dancefloor bombs with Dircsen's signature, well worked out, 303 basslines, accompanied by moody synths. Dircsens tracks are always built to perfection, distinguished and raw at the same time. Timeless tracks which will last a lifetime. Don't sleep on this one!

Hélder Russo returns after serious releases on Groovement and Tomorrow Is Now, Kid!. For his fourth 12” EP on Percebes, he’s crafted three solid, deep cuts. Clear homages to the more spiritual side of house and techno from Chicago and Detroit, complete with a killer techno remix by Leonidas (Hobbes Music) that is all about that UR vibe. Can’t be missed!!

BVR014 comes with 3 heavyweights and extremely talented producers of our industry Javier Carballo (Vatos Locos), Carlos Sanchez (lowwax) and Terrence: Terry (La Vie En Rose Records)

Alex Dimou makes a welcome debut on Crosstown Rebels with What Keeps You There with two great remixes from Cevin Fisher and Avidus.

The EP begins with the enchanting nature of What Keeps You There. A prominent piano roll opens proceedings, with Vili’s moving vocals soon introduced over a chugging bassline. Cevin Fisher’s remix of the title track comes next. A more driving minimal house take on the lead record, subtle kicks converge on rustling percussion, before Vili’s emotive vocals once again form a poignantly heartfelt production. Avidus provide a dance floor-ready rework of the original, that features a mechanical sounding synth and an echoing, electric breakdown, before the EP is rounded off with Let It Be Known, a four-to-the-floor, pumping house cut made up of strong kicks and driving pads.

Alex Dimou is a producer, DJ and remixer whose career has seen him perform all around the global circuit. As a remixer, he has collaborated with the likes of Maya Jane Coles and M.A.N.D.Y, whilst his own releases have found a home on Jamie Jones’ Hottrax as well as renowned Berlin imprint Get Physical Music. Legendary American producer Cevin Fisher has been releasing standout records since 1995, achieving five entries in the UK singles chart between 1998 and 2001. German duo Avidus are regulars on Crosstown Rebels, and continue to run their own imprint Empore Music, which was launched in 2015.

Buckle up brothers and sisters, BOg is back on Monaberry and he's taking us on a trip direct to the heart of the Sahara on a magic carpet made of crisp arpeggios and powered by barbed soul hurricane atmospheric. Balmy yet foreboding, stark, alluring and fundamentally mesmerising, 'Shila's comisicity is tailormade for another perfect Monaberry excursion.

As have the remixes... Human machine Pavi makes his debut on the label with a percussion primed hypnosis piece while Edu Imbernon (also popping his Monaberry cherry) adds a few more minutes to meter with the aid of a breath-taking harmonic texture that soars with more and more emotion and intensity as the track progresses.

For the fourth and final trip BOg calls up Argentinian kindred spirit Kintar and heads due south west to Tanzania for an even deeper, sense-blurring finale. Tense, tribal and peppered with warped synth textures and sudden plunges into dark bass abysses, our only light is another sinewy arpeggio that twists and turns under a sunrise of euphoric pads and tribe song. Do not unfasten your seatbelt until the song has fully finished.

Yet another unforgettable Monaberry mission that will enthral and stimulate long beyond the hot summer ahead. Safe travels.

John Dimas is surely one of the freshest operators in the minimal house scene - his One Against Time album on Elephant Moon last year being a crowning glory in his storied career to date. Now he's back on the EP tip with this high grade hit of floor-focused funk, making his first appearance on scene-leading label Half Baked. "5putn1k" keeps the beats tough and bouncy, peppered with plenty of playful zips and wiggles for the peak time party people. "@L5d" takes a deeper, spaced-out approach, while "5p@c3 T@lk" nudges back towards a full-fat tech-house sound. "@rkyn" seals the deal with a crafty 2-step configuration for the subliminal set to get hypnagogic to.

For this third EP, Parisian label Forest ill Records artists invites fresh producer Muelsa to join them on this record. Follow them to a trip in the universe of 4 of the best Parisian producers. Fasten your belt and take place to the spaceship.

Next up from Borft's hometown artist M Jupiter is this 12" which begins the A-side with a chord stabbin' dubby minimal workout "Over all rokky" followed by "Punk Your Tie" with eerie flanging sounds drifting around in the bass-driven and bleepy trip track. B-side opens with a snippet of fierce analogue sound effects track "Fowling Peas". B2,"Humic Acid" is a perfect Villalobos styled groovy and hypnotic minimal teasing track which grows along the way with several stories developing. Most of the tracks released by M Jupiter usually has a trippy feel about it and the last track of the record, B3, "Be Troublesome" is a cold and ominous dramatic trippy track with a great machine driven rhythm beat. -DJ Momenth

Traditions never let you down, Pax Kivi debut is pretty impressive, original acid music for classy dance floors.

To the untrained ear a collaboration between Mosaic boss Steve O'Sullivan and minimal house maestro Ricardo Villalobos may not seem like the most obvious sound clash. However, dig a little deeper and you'll find that both these artists have a long history and shared love of stripped back aesthetics and dubbed out rhythms carving out respective sounds that have never strayed far from their roots.

Sullric is the result of a daylong session at the end of 2016 where the pair plugged in, switched on and set everything to cycle: recording several hours' worth of material to tape with an edit of their favourite passage worked into two versions in post-production.

As you'd expect from anything Villalobos turns his hands to, the sound palette is fully laden with dreamy tinges of warped audio, pulsating synthesis and psychedelic tinges that are as equal as they are diverse never failing to surprise. O'Sullivan's input shines through in the rhythmic feel and the application of effects throughout, holding the entire track together as they hit on a moment that truly captures the spirit of joint electronic enterprise.

The Side A edit totals 10 mins and leads with lighter touch hat work that evolves in layers and builds, focusing more on the bass edged tones and vocals that envelope the senses throughout: the use of meditative gongs and a large stringed breakdown cutting through the mix to maximum effect.
Side B, titled the deeper dub, stretches over 12 mins and is slightly denser in feel as the rhythmic chug is brought to the fore - driving the track into a sparser territory that gives more ground and emphasis to the breakdowns when they drop. Either way, if you're seeking some heavy beats with weird shit on top look no further.

Marking one year since the birth of Addition by Subtraction, we are delighted to bring you the third vinyl only release of many as we showcase deep and swingy dance-floor bombs for those with eclectic taste.


ABS003 enlists the expertise of six artists from around the world who understand what it means to produce a sound that rocks dance floors and a sound that takes years of practise to blend and perfect.


ABS003 has been road tested by artists around the world and of course the ABS team in Sydney Australia.

SUPERFETT continues to make a lot of noise with its club focussed functional club weapons. This time out BOHEMIEN & RAF PAROLA serve up a pair of tunes that will set any dancefloor alight.

- MAVEN is first and all about the chord stabs that rise up and down the scale and bring plenty of energy to the groove. They get you in the zone and play with you, teasing and tempting for seven thrilling minutes. Big hits and the driving drums all help force home the point and as a result this one is sure to have a huge impact.

- FEELING IT is up next and is a big house tune with old school bounce in the drums and more great chords changing shape and amping up the crowd as they go. These are two more huge tunes designed for a big impact on the floor.

SUPERFETT is the non-stop new sub label from Nhan Solo ´s Mother Recordings that focuses on hard hitting dance floor releases. Behind this latest two tracker are italian duo THE DEEPSHAKERZ, who serve up real dynamite.

- Go Heavy is the aptly named first track. Its got meaty drums and wild synths blasting out from the mix that will get hands in the air. The bass is warm and rubbery and the loose percussion adds to the groove. Some vocals bring a sense of feeling and this one is sure to prove to be another big weapon.

On the flip, - Bad Men is a deeper, darker cut with driving bass. The shuffling hi hats are mean and the laser like synths are joined by step melodies that all add to the sleaze. Aloof vocals bring a sense of rude boy attitude and this one is a cheeky number that will bring something fresh to the floor.

The album is the accomplishment of Flavia Lazzarinis twenty years work. It is an experimental project in which the artist explores Electronic Musics new frontiers hosting wide influences from house music to the garage/Chicago/Detroit sounds belonging to the late 80' and early 90'. Dj, remixer, producer, Flavia Lazzarini is one of the first Italian women DJ and one of the most famous in the Italian and International scene.In 1999 she founded GLAMnight and in 2001 Glamda, two production houses which branded memorable live and dj sets, to which famous international musicians and video artists were invited.Aubergine signs Flavia Lazzarinis further step in musical production. The 11 original tracks are the result of the latest two years of explorations.

In Records continues his musical trip and stops this time in Sweden (Malmö). Rimbaudian is an artist that we don't need to present anymore, surely one of the most gifted producers of his generation. He Keeps soaking up the best in deep, souful techno. This is a very special release perfect for techno and house lovers alike

Hot off the press comes a brand-new label from veteran of the scene, Stefano Ritteri, showcasing his trademark love for obscure samples and synthesiser exploration.

The title track is a sumptuous amalgamation of analogue synths, far-reaching, left leaning samples and crisp-as-you-like drum programming. It's weird and wonderful - enticing you deeper and deeper with every added element, from the wonky glitches, to the fuzzed out, Middle Eastern guitar and exotic vocals refrains.

Take to the B side and you're hit with a rhythmic workout combining modular electronics, sci-fi infused samples and intergalactic synthwork. Rounding off the e.p. 'It isn't about that' is a downtempo beatsy number, laced with dubbed out effects and an introspective monologue about the merits of music as medium of expression.

The first of 5 Vinyl Samplers Taken From John Digweed's 'Live In South Beach' compilation. Handpicked by The main man himself featuring Omid 16b, Montel, John Belk & Pedro Aguiar...

Egal 3 together with his alter-ego Vid has been one of the most prolific and innovative producers over the past years. No Time For Love is proud to present his last incredible work. 3 originals tracks crossing minimal and techno in a superb way. Only 300 copies. No repress!

Another bomb on milky orange vinyl is dropped with label release No. 5 of the inglorious Questo! Music from Switzerland. The Original Mix of - Propper from Francesco Ballato is boosted by 3 remixes. Let's start at the core: Francesco's stripped-down style of deep and groovin' house is turned into an inventive and quirky floor sneaker, which gets higher and higher into a thrilling dramaturgy with the voice of Bruce Lee.

Same side is featured by another uprising producer from Switzerland: Stoga. He found a phat groove in the box and smashes it with a tight direction more into techhouse.

Danish boy Jacob Phono from Berlin, whose list of impacting releases has raised strongly in the recent time, leaves Bruce Lee out of sight and delivers a solid techy version of - Propper on the B1 side.

B2 belongs to Bee Lincoln with his 2nd remix for this label. His faible for deeply driven sounds is unmistakable, which is topped in a tricky way and shoots the floor with kinky snare games.

As spring dawns, Rhythm Section International go from Local Artist to a pair of very 'local' artists - Peckham's very own Chris Watson + Chris Coupe; otherwise known as FYI CHRIS , who present the 'Back In The Millennium' EP as the labels 5th offering.The EP was born after a rather hazy late night listening session at Rhythm Section HQ, where bossman Bradley Zero was instantly beguiled by the Duo's hypnotic and rhythmically complex arrangements.The record begins abrasively with the trance-inducing mechanical stutter of 'back in the millennium', before shuffling into downbeat number 'Jeru' and then picks things up with the peak time groove of 'need i say more' before bringing us back down to earth with the melancholic acid bump of 'dedication'. Early support from Osunlade, MR.G, Ryan Elliott & Damiano Von Eckhert
Ready for Club Use..

We would like to welcome Gonzalo Medina to the Knotweed family. Gonzalo MD is a young producer coming straight from Buenos Aires, Argentina. He likes to qualify his music as hypnotic dub techno with a touch of darkness & Detroit and we think that suits his sound very well. He tests his own productions regularly in Buenos Aires at Cocoliche, where he DJs often with all the usual suspects. He has already more than a handful of releases on digital labels, but this is his first foray in the vinyl world.
