House Novedades

Wilde Calm is proud to present String Figures, the latest project from Pocketknife working under his new moniker Boonlorm. A ten track album featuring 'piano not piano' house music created solely with a prepared piano and raw drum programming that pays homage to Chicago, Detroit, and the 20th century avant-garde. String Figures is 'screw music' in the most literal sense with direct ties to the late composer John Cage who created the first prepared piano pieces by inserting objects into the strings of a grand piano. The sound that resonates is a rich combination of tonal, atonal and percussive timbres. String Figures buzzes, vibrates, and jacks all at once.

Known for the 'DEEPER EDITS OF CHICAGO' 12s JDEEP is back along with THE SHOES' DCASTILLO for this debut 4 track edit 12 on DEAD AS DISCO. Four deep cuts carefully selected and skillfully edited to keep the party going. For fans of LTJ EXPERIENCE, SUPER EDITS, etc.

Scuba continues a strong run of form with his take on Yadi's 'Guillotine'.

Another top quality selection of wonderful sun-drenched obscurities from the Balearica camp. Kicking off with the brilliant instrumental version of Jago's 'I'm Going To Go' from 1983, this is Italo at its best with a super phat analogue B-line which sounds incredible on a big system. Massive on both the early Balearic scene as well as on the dance floors of Chicago and New York, this is an essential. Next up is the dreamy disco groove of Wolfgang Maus' 'Testimony' taken from his uber rare 1979 'Children Of The Universe' LP. Side B features the impossible to find but highly desirable 'It's Broken' by Bob Chance, an amazing nine minute slice of avantgarde disco rock grooviness that receives heavy rotation from DJs lucky enough to have found a copy like DJ Harvey, Rub & Tug and Soft Rocks. Finally rounding off this splendid compilation, you get the original Rolling Stones version of the Balearic favourite 'Heaven', back in demand recently after being covered by Kasper Bjorke. Excellent stuff!

This 12' contains remixes from Bjørn Torske's acclaimed Kokning album from last year. Here Torske gets remix

treatment from DJ Harvey (with Harvey on vocal!), fellow Norwegian Todd Terje and Italy`s Crimea X.

Excellent new housed up edit of the Bill Withers classic

Joey Negro & The Sunburst Band serve up a brand new album of ragbag delights from the funkier genres taking in boogie, disco, funk and jazz to Go Go and down tempo.
Legendary UK electronic producer and DJ Dave Lee, aka Joey Negro, regroups with London's magical live nu-funk and boogie cult hybrid, The Sunburst Band. With members culled from the funkiest ends of Incognito, Jamiroquai and the Kyoto Jazz Massive, The Sunburst Band is unashamedly musical. Fulltime front man Pete Simpson is also known for lending his vocal talents to the Unabombers' alias, The Elektrons.

MASSIVE TUNE ! Contains a three-minute Kenny Dixon Jr. speech sample, taken from a 2010 Manchester appearance, dub also included without the sample

Persnickety Sounds is here to funk-ti-fy your world!
In this era of Nü-Disco, Space Disco, Cosmic Disco, Disco House and shit, there must be a beacon of quality to light the way and lead the faithful back to a place where good grooves matter and realness is holding court.
Let the labels fall and just get it movin'.

Limited white vinyl from Hypercolour, 4 track EP

This cheeky bootleg comes from a well know viking, who has released on labels such as Koze's Pampa Records and Hypercolour imprint, Glass Table. 4 tracks of super-fun, tongue-in-cheek house party classics

Highlive are introducing themselves with an interesting mixture of musical visions thru their first Physical & Digital EP accurately titled "A Thing Called Fusion". Its title track is an elegant melting of bass lines, easy highs and simple melody conduction. Yet you never get annoyed nor are you expecting Jim Morrison to open a door, but it happens. There is a psychedelic touch when you least expect it. The next vision entitled "New Fashion" is the title track total opposite. Strong and clear structures are whipping you over the dance floor, no-holds-barred! "New Fashion" is additionally re-fashioned 2 times for your listening pleasure. First a new dress by Michel Sacher who softens the whole musical design and structure without losing the tracks nasty and racy nature. Highlive are teaming up with friend Maalva Cruz renewing their fashion intensively. Ears do need fashion, too... try some! Finally to this well balanced musical fashion feast find a remix by Philip Bader. He redesigned "It's Over Now" into a catchy and hypnotic club tune. No savings on bass or rhythmic, easy balanced in melody and charm. Enjoy a musical high in your life; Enjoy Highlive - A Thing Called Fusion EP

But you should definitely, ahem 'go for this' ! A top notch 2011 housed-up update of the 1981 Hall & Oates stomper

Hot on the heels of volume 12 and with a familiar Let's Get Lost face at the helm, volume 13 welcomes Jacques Renault aboard once more and he's jumped genres yet again! After the relentless house edits of his last LGL voyage this release sees him return to the familiar waters of synthesizer prodded orchestral disco for the first two tracks and a saxophone and choir led afrobeat gem to round things off.

Finnish DJ crew Rollomatik break out on the Boogie Boutique imprint with a two track release that aims to represent the Arctic Circle fully in the nu funk/breakbeat scene. Formed of Hesh & Eaves, Rollomatik aim to rock the party and that much is evident on this cheeky 12" with "We Love To Party" deftly blending Will Smith with Chic amidst a melange of other recognisable samples. A similar approach runs through flipside jam "The Greatest" as Rollomatik lay down the vocal from an oft used Q-Tip solo joint over a heavily filtered take on Sister Sledge's most ubiquitous track.

DFA has long been a favourite at the Bitches HQ and we were chuffed to be asked to remix one of our favourite acts, The Rapture. We certainly were not shy and dove headfirst into this mix bringing out the guitars and the lovely Beach Boy-esque harmonies twisting it into an indie-electro-house dance floor stomper. It's not for the wallflowers to be sure.

DFA have released this goodie digitally, but as we Bitches love our biscuits, we had to see it released on vinyl. And of course, we must ensure premium sound quality so this release is 45 rpm on 180 gram vinyl. Happy listening.

Two years in the making, with tunes recorded in 4 different countries, Can't Help It aims to be a modern prototype for further directions in future R&B and soul music.
The brain-child of Los Angeles born globetrotter Brian Gibbs. Born in 1978 to a Motown-addicted single mother. Gibbs absorbed the music of Marvin Gaye, Ray Charles and Sam Cooke before he could even walk. Growing up in California led to a deep rooted and abiding love for Disco, P-funk and ultimately Hip Hop. On discovering bebop and then free-jazz, Brian swore to apply the improvisational techniques to modern technology. Early works included eerie sonic predictions of things to come in the now globe conquering 'west coast beat' scene - including, on the infamous PCH label, a 13 minute opus that took us from latin jazz, to afro cuban funk and banging downtempo rhythms. Later Gibbs would move to Tokyo, turn to techno influences, and begin to release 12 vinyls at a frenzied pace! Since 1999 his projects have been diverse and undefinable, yet remained consistent and unmistakably original.

June 2012 brings Echo Park's 'Cant Help It' - the first ever full length album on Disfigured Dubz. Currently relocating back to the United States from Chile, Brian himself describes the current Echo Park direction as 'freaky bass driven hip hop and soul music with a touch of 'Nintendo noir'.

The excellent Lumberjacks In Hell imprint has served up some fine edits in its short lifespan to date, most notably from Chicago's Mutant Beat Dancer Traxx and the label's latest release turns to two other Windy City residents renowned for their collections and skills. Rahaan needs little introduction for the disco loving community with essential drops on Stillove4music, Disco Deviance and more, whilst Mr Sounds runs the excellent Bring The Heat website. This twelve is all about the A Side "Rainin Bleeding Boy" which puts a well loved UK EBM couple through the dub laden beatdown grinder - though DJs will get plenty of mileage out of both tracks on the B Side with "Flip Side" some supremely chopped up disco funk and "War I Declare" a stomping and heavily filtered bomb.

Here is the next Geregelt from 2 artists (from Solingen Germany) Ibatan and matla mute support by Tube and Berger , Basti grub and more.. have fun with this :)

Well, Time flies and brought us to our 50th Release on Dirt Crew Recordings after a bit more than 6 Years of putting out amazing tunes by our Artists.

The old stager and Stuttgart-representative of the minimalistic House and Techno scene Vladimir Corbin and his ally Peddy collaborate on Mo's Ferry number 55.

For the first time ever on 7", Slim Harpo's killer cover of the John Lee Hooker classic. Backed with Part 2.

Blah Blah Blah turn 5 years old this May and as part of their celebrations they have saved
perhaps their most exciting signing yet for a Ltd WeAre5 Vinyl' release, the prolic genre
juggling Blacksmif.
Blacksmif irts on the edge of reason, taking amboyant percussive and melodic risks within
a bass driven jazz tinged environment, such is the adventurousness of his music that he
has already gathered himself quite a fan club, among which he can count Mixmag, Gilles
Peterson, and Mary Anne Hobbs as leading members.
Opening track Hoop Dreams gently patters into life as a comforting wall of sound builds
beneath crisp percussion and a skittish bassline, its simplicity seductively luring you into its
clutches before it totally immerses you in a unfolding mix of shifting melodies, competing
vocal snippets and percussion that comes at you from every angle. Microweight follows a
similarly weaving journey of evolution as layers ebb and ow between triumph and
thoughtful contemplation.
With his rst single Mandy' coming 5th in Mixmags Big Tunes in April and with shows lined
up at Glade, Dimensions and a supporting slot with Julio Bashmore, Blacksmif is set for an
enthralling 2012.

A mere 10 years old, Watergate has steadfastly become one of the world's most prominent electronic music
institutions. This is due in no small part to its heady combination of picturesque location - its dancefloors face
directly out onto the river Spree - a wall-to-wall LED light installation and its impeccable music policy, with the
cream of the electronic crop passing through its doors every week.

The mix CD series, now in its eleventh incarnation, is a further means for the club to stamp its seal onto the
scene, with many of the clubís residents and regular talents having been invited to contribute. Previous artists
have included the likes of Tiefschwarz, Ellen Allien, Sascha Funke and dOP, amongst others. For the latest
edition, DIYNAMIC label boss and man of the moment Solomun takes up the mantle and demonstrates his
own interpretation of club music.

In this era of Nü-Disco, Space Disco, Cosmic Disco, Disco House and shit, there must be a beacon of quality to light the way and lead the faithful back to a place where good

Without doubt, there are only a handful of contemporary bands who can really nail the authentic, gritty and soulful feel that so many groups attempt to create, and Australia's Deep Street Soul are one of those outfits leading from the front.
One vital factor in creating genuine 21st century funk & soul is having top notch vocalists with the prerequisite spirit of real soul and DSS suffer an embarrassment of riches in that respect - having both Mighty May Johnston and Shirley Davis strut their stuff on either side of this cracking 45 single.
Taken from the recent DSS album 'Look Out, Watch Out' (FSRCD092), the A side 'Hold On Me' was screaming out for release as a kicking 7 inch single, as May and the band push the big funk button on this original composition. We suggest you wallow in the chunky horns, diamond hard drums and growling organ riffs and let your knees be knocked bandy by Warren Hunters thundering bass lines!
Residing on the flip side is DSS's respectful take on a quite recent modern funk classic, namely Charles Bradley & The Bullets 'This Love Ain't Big Enough (for The Two Of Us) Shirley Davis puts a feminine slant on this super hard funky soul gem, and rounds off Deep Street Souls' latest addition to the modern funk lexicon.

3 TRACKS & 5 ARTISTS =3.5 EP FEAT 5 OF THE HOTTEST NAMES AROUND

In the words of Pitchfork's Stuart Berman, Cornershop may have made their name in the mid-1990s with a heady, cosmopolitan concoction of psychedelia, old-school funk, and mantric Punjabi folk, but their music also makes room for 1970s boogie-rock, cornball country, and vocoderized robo-disco. From their latest album, "Urban Turban" we present this fresh French filtered 'singhle'.
At its core Cornershop's "Solid Gold" is an avant-gardge homage to the happy-go-lucky pink roller-rink dance music of yesteryear, somewhere between disco house and euphoric 90's. Todd Edwards of Dusted Magazine describe it apltly as follows: "The filters on 'Solid Gold' are pure French touch, and the rapturous threading of micro-samples that dot the song's event horizon recalls Todd Edwards."
Tal M. Klein's remix brings forth vintage drum machines from the antique cabinet and geeks out on drum programming for a bit can you identify the Electro-Harmonix Super Space Drum Things turn sleazy with a 303 bass line and a touch of cowbell, Tal's remix brings a modern disco aesthetic to the original.

Finally! After already two digital releases on BigM Productions,
Stereo Beatz now presents his first vinyl 12" EP, packed full
with four Stereo Beatz bombs. From Ghetto Funk over Breaker
Breats and Breakbeat to Oldskool Breaks, the records contains
a great variety of huge slammers for the floor. A peak time
choice and must have.

BIRMINGHAM BASED CAUSE & AFFECT WITH AN EP FOR SONNY FODERA'S BEATDOWN. 4 TRACKS OF BUMPY GOODNESS INC A MIX FROM LABEL BOSS FODERA.

[B[ B1 | OOH WEE BABE (Instrumental)

Four highly sought after and extremely fine records from all corners of the globe get dusted off and given the inimitable Onur Engin treatment. Subtle re-touches on first listen but as keen followers of his work will confirm the power of this particular tape splicer are not to be sniffed at.

Japan, South Africa & East and West Coast America provide the raw materials for this outing of four consistent yet decidedly varied edits on one 12"!

After extensively touring all around the globe over the last few years Jazzanova finally went back to the lab. During last
November the loose collective of stand-out musicians (members of the Jazzanova live band) spent some time together in the prestigious and legendary GDR Rundfunk Orchestra studios in East Berlin. Over several sessions most of the songs they have been performing live lately to critical and public acclaim were put to tape. This unique endeavour has been filmed and some of the footage can soon be seen in the video clip for the brand new song "I Human". "I Human" predicts the upcoming new album - Funkhaus Studio Sessions' (due in March 2012) and the tour of the same name.

Coinciding with a hot new video and an upcoming album re-release courtesy of Island Records, Turbo weighs in with heavyweight remix support from label bossmaster TIGA and Russian Rave-Czar PROXY.

Just in time for summer, here comes 5th volume of this massive serie. Ralf Gum, Michael Procter, Sabrina Johnston, Fabio Tosti, New Mondo, House Bros, Rude Soul..... great names for a great product. Soulful, Deep and Latin style, including 3 previously unreleased tracks !!!







[H] CD 8 |

What's cooler than being cool Real Cool! It's the verge of summer and we got some banging tunes for you. The record of the year has arrived.
The fourth release on Geography is the debut 12 from our hometown homeboys Real Cool. The EP is called 'Eighties Children EP' and is a playful house record including a 90's NYC house banger with a dubby moog solo, a groovy bass driven jazzy piano spoken word track, and the beautiful nu-disco influenced b-side with Bruce Hornsbyesq piano and Detroitish synth pads.
Real Cool are Patrik Andersson and Johannes Kjellgren from Geography's hometown Malmo Sweden. Patrik is one of Swedens ruffest hiphop producers and Johannes is a long time disco dj and record collector. Together they make the best of house!
Look out for this one and our future releases. Geography is our name and house is our game.

Another couple of gems from the Barbara Lynn repertoire. Barbara is known and loved on many scenes for her boundary-crossing 'I'm a Good Woman' which we released on Fryers some time ago.

Side A is a huge modern soul spin with dense production on the intro and a chorus that's broken up by a sparse open verse making for effective dancefloor teasing. Originals are notoriously difficult to locate these days and reach upwards of $500. And if you think you can manage with the reissue of a few years back, forget it, they're all off centre! Ours is done great, straight from the tapes and pressed in the USA.

Side B is criminally underplayed probably due to the huge 'I'm a Good Woman' overshadowing it. Clean and sharp and straight to the point like cold water in your face a 6am. Cracking drums, guitar and a killer vocal is all you need IF you have the talent. This alternate taken right from the master tapes is even more direct than the original and sounds as if it was recorded yesterday, MASSIVE!

Nynfus Corporation is the name of a crew of rising starts in the nu funk/ghetto funk scene. Top class ghetto funk productions with an ethnic twist are what the 3 boys from Budapest, Hungary are all about.
After doing release on the Bombastic Jamand BigM label the crew turned to BBP to drop their dopest release to date. The a-side gives us funky peak time ghetto pumpin' jams, whiles the b-side shows us a little a of that ethnic/Europeanstyles the boys do all so well. All 4 tunes are tested with party rockin' guarantee, and they'll surely be doing some major damage on the dancefloors this summer.

Ladies and Gentlemen. We proudly present: "The Gemini Bros.". With
their 12" vinyl single "Trump Skyscrapers", the twins from Bucharest
provide a huge show for a debut on BigM Productions. Following their
motto "Keep the funk alive", they present a funky, groovy and loungy
breaks tune with great remixes by CMC&Silenta, DJ Nixon of Mustbeat
Crew and Jon Kennedy & Ewan Hoozami.

2011's debut album from The Shaolin Afronauts 'Flight Of The Ancients' was a critical and commercial success story, lauded as a truly original blend of the sounds of1970's West Africa, Ethiopia and the pioneering and progressive avant-garde jazz artists of the same period.
This new single 'Brooklyn' displays the bands musical progression. Whilst the multi layered rhythms remain, as well the hypnotic horns and melodic interplay, the soulful, jazz inspired harmony has been taken up several levels to a quite stunning effect.
The b side of this limited edition 12 inch single is a very special live version of 'Kilimanjaro', which was recorded in January 2012 at the Adelaide Festival Centre, Space Theatre with an expanded 18 piece line up - as The Shaolin Afronauts Ensemble. This track is not included on the forthcoming new album and is a totally exclusive to this single.

secret weapon !!!

K - Skip' Skipson has built himself quite a fan base with his funky releases as (Knarf) Skipson on Quintessentials and other labels. The young man from Berlin is deeply infuenced by Hip Hop - both in terms of production techniques (he uses an MPC as his main instrument) as well as aesthetically. For Maria Colors he comes up with four massive House tracks full of Hip Hop and Soul samples which make you wonder: can it get any deeper than this! Funky as hell and extremely soulful - that's what makes these tracks from Skipson so special - and at the same time they're a wonderful way to celebrate the label's frst birthday. The photography on the record comes from Laptopcity 2000.

Soweso 009 bring us one of Rumanians upcoming house-masters Negru. After his amazing contribution to
the Soweso Various Artists EP last year it's time for him to do his own release.

Two Deputies of Love from Berlin set out for defending love. The Deputies of Love release now their third EP! a - controvercy b - untill we bleed

Following on from the likes of Maya Jane Coles and T.Williams, next to release on ever cultured Hypercolour off shoot HypeLtd is Toronto beatsmith Kevin McPhee. With releases on labels like Idle Hands and [nakedlunch] in 2011, this man has established himself as one of the finest and freshest producers of the year.

A1: I Wanna Boogie
Slick percussion on this one, with a spacey lead synth and vocal. This one has been gaining huge reactions on the dance floor! A great, refined disco/house track.
A2: My People
A different vibe on this one, but we loved it so much we couldn't leave it out! A chilled vocal track with gentle percussion and warm keys. A superb track in its own right that will undoubtedly become a secret weapon for warm up and after party sets alike.
B1: Looking In Your Eyes
Back to the house style - synth sounds which are so typical of Volta Cab's productions, as you will come to find out! Again a great groove on the beat and some really tight percussion to bring things alive.
B2: Freak Your Soul
Dreamy house to round up the release, giving a nod towards the old school house styles. Great beat, nice vocal and a really infectious synth line. Nice!!

Soul Motive have always been representative of the current strains of Bristol's ever flourishing tapestry of music scenes so it makes perfect sense that the label would call on the Young Echo collective sooner or later. After some notable releases for fellow Bristol hubs Idle Hands and Punch Drunk, Kahn steps forth with another example of his undoubted talent for making music that spans the shades of the bass music spectrum with the rowdy yet soulful 2 step bump of "Angeles." This is Kahn in smooth mode, demonstrating his prowess at weaving vocals so that they form an integral part of the rhythm. Fellow Punch Drunk acolyte Superisk ensures it's an all Bristol affair with a remix that dampens the soulful nature in favour of something altogether darker.

Anna Lunoe & Friends 'Real Talk' EP is all Australian and all party! On 'Real Talk' Anna teamed up with mysterious Sydney producer Touch Sensitive - who you may remember brought you 'Body Stop' back in 2009 on Future Classic - for what could be THE perfect summer house anthem... pianos, uplifting pianos, vocal stabs, pianos. A tune that you could definitely see rubbing shoulders with classics like 'Strings of Life' and 'Gypsy Woman'. Next up is 'I Met You', Anna's collab with another Sydney producer that's been catching lots of attention from the likes of XLR8R, Electronic Beats and inthemix called Flume. Anna's beautiful vocal work gets Flume's catchy chopped and pitched treatment and is packed with more chunky bass than you've ever imagined. The final track on the EP is an essential DJ tool by one of Australia's earliest pioneers of house and techno DJ HMC. HMC takes all the power of the original 'I Met You' and brings up the pace and kick for some very delicious results. HMC has been making dance music in Adelaide since around '91 and is still rocking, in fact if you're from the new school you might know is other alias Late Nite Tuff Guy.. The Australian born Anna Lunoe has DJed with giants like The Chemical Brothers, Soulwax, Daft Punk and Salt n Pepper, ran cult club parties with her DJ crew Hoops, mixed compilations for Ministry of Sound, given music direction for everyone from Louis Vuiton to Hugo Boss and even nabbed a spot in Sydney magazine's 100 most influential people list. Is there anything she can't do

new bomb by Jesse & Oliver !!

R.K. is the new musical collaboration of Ronnie Turner (Blunted Funk Project) and Kev Beadle (Solar Radio/Southport Weekender).
On this first release the boys have chosen two much loved classic tracks from back in the day and have respectfully extended and re-tweaked them for play to those that know the score.
First up Charles Earland's 1980 classic 'Coming To You Live' gets the R.K. treatment with an extended intro featuring killer brass,
percussion and bassline groove that builds and builds to the hooky vocal drop.
Next up the percussive and horn heavy, orchestrated string laden Salsoul Orchestra disco version of the Earth,
Wind & Fire classic 'Getaway' gets an overhaul extending the track by nearly 3 minutes from the original.
This one is all about the groove and if this doesn't get them going you're dj'ing in the wrong place !!

Holding no limits Hot Creations are back with their next release, Digitaria & Funky Fat's 'Masochist EP' - a funky fusion of all things electronic, from deep house and disco to indie-pop and electro.

Label head Jamie Jones met Digitaria the Brazilian song writing, electronic duo of Daniel Albinati and Daniela Caldellas while touring in Brazil. Digitaria's first album was released in 2006 on Gigolo Records from Berlin, where they also released the smash hit 'Teen Years'. In 2011 they dropped their second album, this time on Brazilian 3Plus Label, Emotion/Simulation. For this next release they have teamed up with fiery trio Funky Fat aka Guilherme Santoro, Thiago Guimaraes and Rafael Cury from Belo Horizonte. Together they explore a collection of groove, funk and down right disco!

Title track 'Masochist' gets to work with electro synth lines riding over the powerful bass and sharp percussions. Oozing with groovy melodies and super funk this is an indie-pop smash hit, with resemblance to fellow Brazilian groups such as CSS.

Taking a much housier turn is Digitaria's 'Paradise Club Mix'. The garage style bassline pumps with rounded bounce and fluid movement while the soothing melodies leave a feeling of euphoria. Haunting synths permeate the outer layers, twisting this dance floor bomb for a darker edge.

Over on the B side 'You Bring Me Down' is the second collaboration from Digitaria and Funky Fat. Soaring synths swarm the mind with grumbling electronic stabs and a true injection of funk leaving the blissful vocals to tell the story.

Rounding off this fresh release is Digitaria's 'Crazy Life'. Intoxicating vocal melodies, spacey synths and rounded keys combine to make this electro dream one that will blow your mind.

When Grieche & Vokal drop out a new bomb, you definetely know it's serious business.Yet again heavily supported by the ones like Felix Bernhardt, Mentalic, Tonk Berlin,Louie Cut, Dennis Fröhler and many others, those two young artists know how to reach
the party people. Their sound, which is often compared to the high quality stuff from Super Flu, Andhim and Hanne & Lore, hits the right spot in the scene,once again reaching NO.1 in the deejay.de charts after the huge success of "Old Shatterhand"!"Der kleine Leuchtturm" on Strict Recordings!

Stereofunk, The guy from Dresden, is back with a new single on Coco Machete Records called 'El Patron'. This is the second single from his upcoming full length album 'Radio Robotic' due out next month.

DJ PRIME strikes nicely with his takes on two uber classics. somewhere between re-edits and remixes on Universal Robot Band on Aside, and Marvin Gaye on the flip. great for the dancefloor as for home listening for sure.

JOEY NEGRO re-edits the classic Jacksons 1978 smasher ! Also includes Chantapella !!

Bonar Bradberry is a name you won't forget in a hurry. One of the new breed who marry the snappy energy of house with the weight of disco beats, his productions have recently piqued the interest of Andrew Weatherall among others.

Bradberry's second venture with London label Under The Shade packs a real punch, with full, chugging bass lines driving bright melodies and crisp drums. On UTS35 his two originals are given contrasting remixes from a pair of duos on either side of the Atlantic.

Dropping a clue in the title, "On The Bounce" locks in rigid drums with crunchy low end. Vocal samples duck and dive with dirty acid flecks to consolidate this lolloping tribal groove, perfect for whipping the floor into shape!

Midlands pairing SAS (Below's Subb An and Adam Shelton) roll out a straight up houser and dont mess with the bounce. Tempering the drums slightly and bringing the longing vocals to the fore they drop a forceful bumper.

The mischievous bass of "Guess Who" sets a killer groove, with Bradberry allowing subtle congas to roll around freely. Jazzy samples illuminate while vocal samples add depth and texture.
New Yorkers No Regular Play strip the sheen away from the low end and add a helping of grit to the original drums of "Guess Who". Working a shimmering synth into vocal snippets they drop an assured remix, perfect for outside spaces and lost summer days.

Ajello feature once more on the Demo Disc label. Following on from the storm created from the 'Editainment' album early last year. Heavy as usual with Ajello's special space disco-funk flavour!

Punto De Partida is a disco Latin track, Barkin'Soul and Paprika have worked on back in 2007 and has finally made it on vinyl as the title of Barkin'Soul single.

Recorded in a Queenslander weather board house in Mullumbimby it captures the passion for Latin music that both developed through the years.

Score one for isolation.' - The New York Times

'Scrappy, homemade, lush and simultaneously familiar and completely foreign.' - The Fader

'It sounds like what would have happened if that sax scene from Lost Boys swapped the beefcake with the ponytail and greasy torso for Arthur Russell in post-disco mode, plus some astral synths and elephant noises(). It's dance music, clearly.' - Stereogum

When I See You Again', from Canyons' 2011 debut Keep Your Dreams, is a slice of the most relaxed paradise you could imagine. Tribal drums, slinky synth lines, Balearic beats and a little saxophone - the song should come with a Pina Colada.
Remixes from Morgan Geist, Nick Zinner, of Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Canyons themselves

Casbah73 is back with this wicked eccentric house 12'. "I'm Feeling Lucky" is a deep and intense Detroit-influenced vocal house jam. A take on the classic Muzic Box spirit, this one's got that anthemic feel about it and has classic written all over it.

Check The Guns are back with the second to last instalment in their Tape Edit series.
It's onwards and upwards for 004 where side one sees a deconstructed work out of The Fatback Bands 'The girl is so fine'. Track 2 'House Down' is a no holds barred party tune for the discerning dance floor that will do all the work for you.

On the flip 'Sugar Samba' is a rework of the London records classic from Julia and co. Finishing off we have an edit of Heatwaves 'Super Soul Sister' which is a gem of a vocal funk track that gives as good as it gets and leaves you wanting more.

Kicking things off in style is New York's Deep & Disco with the heavily groovy Knock Me Out.
While Irish masters of cut n paste business, Get Down Edits, take more of a disco funk path with the highly infectious 'Make Your Body Move'.
Finally, all the way from Monte Carlo, Rocco Raimundo (the man behind the massive We Love Dreams from last year) threatens to tear up the dance floor with the ecstatic 'Must Be Love'. Lovingly edited and re-mastered for 100% disco action.

irst single cut from upcoming mule musiq compilation "i'm starting to feel ok vol.5". a side,our one of the most favorite producer "juju&jordash" gave us the brand new song. it's very unique psychedelic techno stuff and off course essential!! juju&jordash remix of kathy diamond on endless flight is also coming very soon. move d on a2 and dj sprinkles on b side are first available on vinyl. it's just for vinyl lover. second single cut which coming in may have the track from vakula, kuniyuki and lowtec.

Another limited Edtition EP (300 Copies!) After the big success of the first part of Underground Warriors EP, Here's the second part, definitely more dub than the first one, except for Fabio Monesi's track, a very uptempo, energetic track that captures a perfect 90s feel, emphasized by the raw sound of Fabio Monesi's Machines.

In a remarkably short amount of time, Adam Gibbons (Lack Of Afro) has amassed an extensive and varied body of work. From his own recordings, featuring his multi instrumental skills, to producing, DJ-ing and of course remixing tracks by a huge range of different artists.

This is a welcome return from Sheffield-based producer Grievous Angel who has been known for his slew of edits and live remixes - whether it be Grime, Dancehall, House or UK Funky. Having done this for Keysound label-mates Dusk & Blackdown as well as random re-works of productions from artists like Wiley (check 2009's Ice Rick refix under the alias of Bubblez), Grievous Angel has got an eye for recycling existing ideas but is no slouch when it comes to his original productions either.

His new EP on Forefront recordings see's him manifest his love of UK Funky with two cuts that showcase his ability to move dancefloors with crispy drums and the undeniable swing of House and Garage.

Lead track 'Kleer' is built up around grandiose arpeggios over percussive drums that mirror the brutal urgency of UK Funky. Whilst the basslines are militant, the addition of the whirring synths adds an air of smoothness to proceedings and builds a sense of eerie tension around the otherwise stomping effort.
On the flipside is his remix of J Beatz' 'Subwoofer' (previously released on Forefront) oozes tropical vibrations with a tribal-esque beat pattern that ebbs and flows effortlessly and will work as a great tool in club sets. Rhythmically the remix possesses all the swagger of early Cooly G and Roska efforts yet there's an underlying influence of dub as the subtle low-end bassline becomes more prominent as the track progresses.

Ultra-phat re-edits of two classics from one the biggest acts of the

Strange rhythms echo across Todmorden as a small group of local Rhumberos, fuelled on wild rum and crowfoot take inspiration from the "supreme truth".....

03 Grotto

Two of the stand-out songs from the stunning new Incognito album 'Surreal' are featured on this vinyl package.

Lead cut AIN'T IT TIME - a remake of a 1976 disco tune originally recorded by Queen Yahna - features the blistering
Loleatta Holloway-esque vocals of Vanessa Haynes, in a longer, club-friendly mix

Long-time Incognito favourite Maysa handles the vocals on THE LESS YOU KNOW, which opens with an ultra-funky bass groove from the band's Francis Hylton. Also included is the album version of the track

Following two well-received 12' singles in 2011, Bristol's Bedmo Disco Records - 'The Sound of Bedminster' - returns in 2012 with something rather special: the debut reedits EP from longtime family member JIMMY THE TWIN.

Famed for their self-released KM Editions series, Keyboard Masher join Daphni and Tom Croose in the Resista family with the roaring 'Afro Editions', two faultless edits that distill the spirit of mother Africa.

Opener 'JuJu' is an epic fifteen minute long journey filled with joyous, duelling guitars, syncopated percussion, shuffling rhythms and a myriad of unexpected passages and turns. Captivating from the off, there's only one word to describe 'JuJu' - magical.

On the flip ' Tcham Tcham' takes a more direct route to the dancefloor... Riding on a more electronic 4/4 beat, it's unashamedly leftfield, with a thunderous chug, a great guitar riff and deadpan calls of 'Tcham Tcham', which all builds up to an anthemic climax. Drop it and watch the dancefloor melt.

Introducing 'Kleine Reise Records', a Berlin based label flowering from the roots of their beloved clubs Kleine Reise & Loftus Hall; a natural progression to further share our world of sound.

Life is change, tastes evolve, the only essential ingredient is for our music to have soul.
Free from the shackles of any particular style or genre and from the constraints of time, we begin a journey through the sonic universe.
Our first offering comes from two of Kleine Reise's founding members Dara Drea O'Neill and Peter Power.
On the A-side we have Sun-K, composed during several sundowns at the hazy heights of last Summer. Channeling the collective spirit of the open-air arena, it offers the first glimpse into Peter's Ufordian fantasy.
On the B-Side; Dara takes a bare-back ride through a pitched dreamscape. The constant flapping wings of a Little Dragon guides him. If you stretch out your arms it feels like flying.
Lastly with 'Red Roses' Peter conjures up an irresistible dream-like, slo-mo workout, guaranteed to be drifting out across the Adriatic beach parties this summer

Take a little trip with us. Love The KR Family

Great Funky House from Paris. Limited to 300 copies. Save your copy!

Small World Disco Edits are back at it again, this time with a release from the head honcho himself, LTJ! Working under his LTJ Edit Rework guise and on point as ever. Three great edits, all testaments to the reason LTJ is such a respected figure in the edit world.

Ready for some Ska Techno Some Ragga Dubstep Some Electro Musette Some Gypsy Dubsteppa

NKC returns to Awkward Movements with two new anthems for 2012, this time backed with heavyweight remixes from the one Maddslinky and Lampuka records honcho Raimo.

Generic modification in effect here on this 3 tracker from seasoned producer and remixer travelling incognito, hush-hush and strictly on the q.t.

Straight out of East London, Pacific Rim Dubs mix up deep, bumpin' house with soul and boogie, rude acid with funk and fidget grooves with pure disco. In a mash-up style, but without the comedy beats and not a whiff of irony in sight, Pacific Rim Dubs vol1 takes a selection of infectious snippets from the soul/ boogie vaults and blends them into proper house floor fillers.

A Side: 'On The Raz': a deep, bumping house groove with a formidable disco hook. The secret lovechild born out of the fusion of soulful, jackin' house, minimal tech grooves and lush disco loops.

AA side, track one: 'Ain't My Loved One': If ever there was such a thing as Acid Funk, this is it. A long teasing, squelchy acid intro kicks off into a deeply swung, infectious funk groove, topped with a cut-up soul vocal peeking in and out. Getting massive play from Crazy P/Ron Basejam.

AA side, track two: Already getting play from Tom Middleton, Jimpster and charted by Nic Fanciulli, this one has more cowbells than Kerri Chandler and a relentless fidget feel over a rolling disco groove.

We're happy to report, after a short hiatus Ray Mang and his incomparable Mangled label are back !

His recent Disco Deviance release was more than enough to remind everyone what they'd been missing, but here we have a fresh new Mangled release - filled to brim with Ray's unique take on lost classics

Mangled has been a benchmark for quality edits since the late 90's, and with renewed interest in dance music's heritage, Ray has found himself back at the forefront of a scene he was instrumental in forming.
Having been behind a plethora of releases on cult Nu-Disco labels like Noid, Fiasco, U Star, Nuphonic, Eskimo etc etc over the years he has cemented his reputation as an amazing producer in his own right as well a studio engineer extraordinaire for the likes of the Idjut Boys, Glimmers & many more.

Sam Irl is a talented producer from Vienna to keep an eye on. After a few releases on various labels, amongst others a 7" collaboration with Dorian Concept and a featuring on "Kutmah presents Worldwide Family Vol. 2" (Brownswood Rec.) with Ritornell, he is releasing his new EP on Jazz & Milk

NEW from Joey Negro's Z Records, hand numbered 12's 1 - 430.
This 3 track EP from SPIRIT CATCHER aka THOMAS SOHET & JEAN VANESSE brings out some serious 80s boogie-esque funk! "STREET SKILLS" takes on the A-side while the bumpin "RENDEZ-VOUS" and "ABSOLUTE DROP" hold down the flip.

GAMM is mucho mucho proud to invite Suonho to the GAMM family.
He's already a well established name on the edit scene, especially after his huge Donny Hathaway edit last year. On GAMM he's now droppin' two heavyweight reworks on one of our all-time social ghetto soul tunes "The World Is A Ghetto". Suonho made classy edits of both the original War version but also George Benson's epic jazz-funk version.

To be honest, we can't choose a winner as we love both version equally but we guarantee you'll use both versions.

Lets take em' to the ghetto!

After the HUGE success of Suonho's 'The Ghetto' 12' last year, we jumped at the opportunity to work together with him again. This is the first 12' from an ongoing project titled 'The Director's Cuts'.
Five hard to find tracks each with deep funky flavour and not originally intended for the dance floor superbly 'reloved', rearranged and given that extra bit of Suonho magic!

Excellent third release on the essential 'Supafrico Records' featuring four absolutely stunning Afro flavoured grooves dug deep from the vaults. First up we have a previously unreleased extended version of 'Hot Black 'N' Sweet' by Nigerian funkster Kio Amachree. Taken from the über-rare 1981 'Ivory' LP, this a slice of pure funk filled afro boogie led by a groovy phat bline, driving horn section and Kio's magnificent Kid Creole-esque vocals. Number two comes in the form of 'Slow Down' from the hugely sought after 1981 'Grill' album by Amas. But 'Slow Down' it doesn't! With a catchy, pulsating drum intro, layers of incredible stabbing piano and damn-right groovy guitar licks, by the time the vocals come in, you're already in a state of Afro-euphoria! On the flip, we have the full 10 minute version of the ultra rare 'Sabi (Get Down)' from Ghanaian master drummer, Okyerema Asante feeding us a funk-riddled piece of undiluted afro groove pie with awesome vocals and tripped out synths Finally, if that wasn't enough, Time Will Tell is a deeply undulating Afro funk disco gem from the 7-piece who were also known as the Lafayette Rock Band. Remastered to the max, this EP is an absolute necessity!

Aniligital Music presents "Slow Down" - a slo-mo slammer being this two track Tal M. Klein EP featuring collaborations with Anthony Mansfield (Hector Works) and Irregular Disco Workers (Cloned In The Vatican). First up, Irregular Disco Workers and TMK dial up a real beauty of a beach track influenced by those late night watchings of Emmanuelle movies with the acid lines of last night's rave still ringing in your ears. Next, we found this pre-AM/TM Anthony and Tal collaboration in a hidden folder called "gem" in our old studio file cabinet. This is a Disco Villainy-era slow disco/jazz fusion...

Diner City Sound is back with the seventh in the series. A huge release from Spain-based producer Kastil.

SIDE A
A1: Bring Back
Soulful track with Nicholas written all over it. Cool female vocal and a nice shuffle on the percussion. Synth and bass are trademark Nicholas/NMH style. Back to his best!!

A2: Reachin
Again, another instantly recognisable Nicholas production, the dude has style! Nice percussion and a hypnotic vocal. Great synth lines and pumping, old school house style flavour to the bass/keys.

Side B
B1: All I Got
Really simple but a effective track. Again, a real old school house vibe on this one brought to life by the synth and with a short vocal sample topping things off. Very well executed production.

B2: If You Want
More of a funk vibe going on here. Definite dancefloor hit, that's much deeper than the rest of the record, and it hits the spot! Bass is brilliant, vocal superb - just makes you want to groove!! Hit!

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....

BAM ! POW !! and other comic book type exclamations meet the news that one of the baddest brothers on the breaks and bass scene has put pen to paper and signed to Jalapeno Records.

Smalltown Supersound is proud to present the first single taken from Idjut Boys' debut album, Cellar Door, that will be released in 24th July on Smalltown Supersound.



The 12" is a one sided single and is limited to 500 copies worldwide.

The seasoned Portuguese production duo that go by the name of Johnwaynes are back for their third outing on Let's Get Lost. A gospel disco banger on one side and blissed out whispering house on the other, essential!

2 tracks from the MC that brought you 'Lidl' and was guest vocalist on MIA's Paper Planes remix that went into the US Top 5. He's been around the world, finished his degree, guested on DJ Shadow's 'I'm Excited' and is getting ready to break out properly on his own. This is a taster for his mini album that is coming very soon, two tracks that take him in two very different directions. Kunta Kinte is a classic slice of funky, South African inspired house/ garage. With a strong lyrical message AB takes it back to the time when MC's had something to say other than how fly they were (not that he isn't and he will do some of those). Produced by Dan Anderson from Nu Sound Therapy. The tune is HOT ! Eba Eater is a quality slice of African hip hop produced by LA's Twofifteens. It bounces !

Prince-sampling. 250 only

The Belgian Duo Stereo Express is the very promising discovery from Shaker Plates. After releasing their

Destined to be lost in the digital mire, the ever-dependable ISIT Balearic boys have rescued yet another modern classic for proper release on their
IIBR label !

*** we received the last copies on earth !! incl big tensnake remix !!!

Vault Series is a cheeky little series where Rush Hour drops never before released tracks and mixes from its vaults as well as tracks which are in dire need of a re-release.
The series kicks off with an unreleased track by the mysterious Duster Valentine. An anthemic disco track that, with its catchy piano loop, pays homage to the golden days of New York house music. Music that will make you sweat!

Three funk and disco classics touched by the hand of Todd on the first DM of 2012!

Volume six of the limited edition strictly vinyl only GUYNAMUKAT Afro Disco Boogie Edit series has arrived with four deliciously trimmed and tucked edits to delight your record bag and excite your dancefloor.Side one kicks off with a very obscure but none the less irresistable slab of female vocal boogie from the golden year of 82.... ''Shake It Baby'' has a throbbing wobbly disco bass with a memorable chorus.
A2. Low Slung Disco does exactly what it says on the tin.....Gently easing in with some slap bass boogie before those glorious Vince Montana-esque strings drama kick in to hipnotic effect. On to the flip we head to the Carribean Islands for some reggaefied feel good sun kissed tropical disco with some obligitory steel drums for a dramatic finish.The 12 ends with a holy grail Nigerian afro boogie obscurity which an original copy sold for an unbelievable $2,000 in 2006 !! GUYNAMUKAT make one single track from the two different versions on the album tightening up the groove accordingly and making good use of those synths and the funkier elements of the track. Early DJ support comes from Pat Les Stache,Faze Action,Suonho,Volcov,LTJ Experience etc

Black belt disco choppers Marvin & Guy board the runaway Let's Get Lost train with two housed up disco edits under their hats. Two very well known tracks get a very unexpected dose of medicine and the prognosis is very good indeed.

When De Niro and Y met Estel Luz, they were already working on a simple melody, as usual, using a sample (this time from an old italian song by Piero Ciampi), who nothing have to share with dubstep stuff. Gold: a smooth and catchy bassline, a sweet garage hint completed by a great vocal by Estel Luz, telling us the story of an upperclass girl that loses all of a sudden her social power and identity, walking straight towards the naked truth, her new life and new skin.
The story becomes deeper and darker with a stunning Jack Sparrow Remix.

Supported by: Pinch, Jack Sparrow, J:Kenzo, Youngsta, Bratski Krug, Epitome, Nhertz, Dropfellas, Dj Foster, NumaCrew and many more.

essential baby !!!! repressed now !!
