Releasing an album is a daunting task, especially in dance music.
You got to keep it fresh and exciting from the very beginning until the last track, not sticking to one tempo, make tracks that work both at home and in the club and ultimately tell a story with your music.

Alexander Lay-Far knows a thing or two about this, having his debut album 'So Many Ways' out back in 2013. The thing with Lay-Far and a big reason why we've always had a soft spot for him is his way of incorporating a certain magic in the tracks that leaves you on an uplifting and optimistic note. Therefore we're really excited to release his second album, How I Communicate, on Local Talk.

How I Communicate is a two part vinyl release which we hope will come as a fresh breeze in these days where so much dance music simply lacks the actual musical aspect or the organic approach.
Like most producers and DJs that are influenced by soul, disco, jazz and the blacker side of electronic dance music its all about the actual 'tune'.
Listening (or dancing) through this album we hope you'll find your special tune (or tunes!) that hopefully will bring joy to your ears.

To his aid Lay-Far has invited an impressive cast of collaborators such as Ashley Beedle & Darren Morris, Restless Soul, Sean McCabe & Mark De Clive-Lowe to give the tracks that little extra something under the watchful eye of Lay-Far himself.

Or as Lay-Far describes it himself 'The album is about the music as the universal language, the ultimate means of communication, bringing people of the world together.'
Part 2 will be released in the new year...

After a short hiatus, Eddie C's Red Motorbike blazes back through We're back to the 7" format for this one, as Eddie splits the release with long time compadre Roberto

LIMITED COPIES

Capital Bass continues to gather Russian names under one roof and expand stylistic variations. Next big thing is a three-track EP from Ponty Mython (Alex).
This is the second EP by sir Ponty Mython on Capital Bass. It has been two years since his bulletproof Jesus EP in 2013.
During these two years Ponty Mython has been working with such iconic house imprints as Arma, Quintessential, Dirt Crew and others. His new Adverbs EP is a quite eclectic thing.
Side A is a filtered house banger Gracefully - a result of sampling games with Moscow house star Lay-Far (Local Talk, In-beat-ween). Side B - Afterwards tune is a real one-loop thriller, dirty and raw, with African samples and invisible sub bass line.
On B side you can also find a psychedelic version of Afterwards by Saint Petersburg techno artist Nocow (Roots United, Fauxpas Musik). (Roots United, Fauxpas Musik)

For the first installment of our sublabel catalog we are happy to present to you two young guns Robin Stern & Tom Ries who are debuting with their first vinyl release straight out of Frankfurt's outskirts.

REPRESSED !!
The legendary West End Records kick off 2017 with the a brand new re-edits series inviting like-minded producers with an underground thirst and a deep understanding of house & disco culture to collaborate on a very special project.
First up, Wolf Music man Medlar; applying his dancefloor know-how to West End's rich archive of classic disco and boogie. Hand picking four personal favourites, Medlar reworks them perfectly for current club sets. Picking out dub sections and skilfully reworking & extending them proving exactly why Medlar has been such a draw to labels like Delusions of Grandeur and For Discos Only.'I put these edits together for myself and a few friends to play in our DJ sets. West End was one of the key stepping stones to what would later become house music and for many is the definitive sound of early 80s New York. I'd argue that it's aged better than any other label of that era and if you're relatively new to the label or know it inside out, the catalogue can likely still provide something new.'
These four sublime new edits from Medlar showcase his passion for digging deep, knowledge of house history and skills as a producer.

New Vinyl Only offshoot from Masterworks Music, pressed on 10 Inch with a printed sleeve.

First release is from Closed Paradise with 2 special cuts commissioned especially for this series. 2015 was a big year for Closed Paradise with releases for labels like Kolour Ltd, Diggin' Disco Deep, Whiskey Disco, & Above Machine.

The Legion of Boogie Down return with episode 3.
Accompanied with a video , A Safe and Happy Place is one of the signature songs taken from the forthcoming album 'The Lost Art of Getting Down.'
It features the vocal talents of Nick Maurer and Fi McClusky and follows the theme of taking dance music back to it's roots, dance music to escape to.
A brand new extended version with part 2 on the flip that carries on the Chicago journey.
Come hang with the family at their safe and happy place.

Misterious new label of underground disco

The sound of now! Balearic fusion future classic.

After sending out these tracks last summer and getting great reactions from DJs and dancers alike, Hell Yeah is pleased to finally officially release virtuoso musician Verdo's Little Blue EP, complete with a remix from Lauer. Fully remastered for vinyl, the likes of Lexx, Chris Coco, Soft Rocks, Leo Mas and many more have all be playing these tunes with great results.

The talented Verdo runs the famous Gratis Club in Senigallia on the Italian east coast. It is a place he calls home, and that has really allowed him to hone and sharpen his DJ skills so that now he is a slick, unpredictable and singular DJ with many tricks up his sleeve. Bjorn Torske, DJ Fettburger, Prins Thomas, Kenji Takimi, Glenn Underground and more have all played there in the last decade and Verdo himself is a skilled pianist who has played for Zero7 singer Mozez in the past. He has worked with Hell Yeah before now, as well as releasing on Danny Was A Drag King, and here serves up his biggest bit of dance floor dynamite to date, including his previously digital only cut 'Big Fish' (mixed by DJ Rocca).

Opener 'Little Blue' is a perfectly sunny track with hip swinging claps, bobbling bass and boat party vibes that soothe your soul. Rich with instrumentals and golden synth lines, it's a perfect beat that gets followed up by the retro disco pump of 'Sazerac', another tropical cut with loose drums and rubbery bass to get you up on your toes.

The massive 'Big Fish' then hits hard with its tin pot percussion and wild synths all making you flail your arms like you just don't care. Jumbled jungle vibes and big chords all swell your heart as your feet skip about down low.

Closing out the package is Phillip Lauer (Tuff City Kids), one of the most in demand stars of the day, and his version is a direct house jam with percolating and rugged synths and slapping hits, all demanding you ditch your cocktail and get up and groove.

Dark Entries present all four mixes of 'Transdance' by Night Moves as a tribute dedicated to the lives lost in the Oakland Ghost Ship fire on December 2, 2016. Night Moves was the brainchild of Michael Guihen, from Pimlico, south London.

The 4th edition to the Limited Series drops on Banoffee Pies Records. More mixed taste loving for your record bag.

Love and Dancing. Banoffee Pies x HEAT.

Tryck & Ton is run by Edvin E & Anton Klint. After a couple of amazing edit releases the guys return with the first original work from the newly founded label. Conga Liver is a percussion driven banger with serious highs and lows. The track gets remix treatment from Lisbons finest Tiago, who adds a discogroove, horns & an incredibly groovy baseline to the table. Final track 'On The Flip' is a playful groover sounding like Robotnik having a loud wine-impregnated argument with Tony Allen over who to host the afterparty.

Hammer presents his vinyl debut on Optimo Music Disco Plates. This three track 12" is a vinyl only / club use only limited edition guaranteed dancefloor activator. Tech-house djs might want to skip this one.

In the three years since Moon Rock Volume 1 came out, interest and attention in ambient and cosmic music has broadened and deepened. What began as a experiment in how chill out might sound as reimagined by traditionally dancefloor-oriented producers has found an incredible community of listeners and creators.

With Moon Rock Volume 4, Throne of Blood is once again gazing upwards and looking inwards as we collect our biggest survey of kosmische sounds. Featuring contributions from close friends and label contributors (Gilb'r, Black Deer, Man Power), respected members of the electronic underground with no prior connection to the label (Moscoman, Jabru, Brain Machine, Vactrol Park, MA Spaventi, Cass. & Stijn Hüwels, Danny Passarella, Maximilian Akiba, Craig Bratley, Not Ssandoz, Aris Kindt), members of the TOB family (Steve Cobby, Maxime Pasquier, Linus Booth's new Warden CA project), and some surprises as well (Cale Parks, former drummer of indie rock band Yeasayer), Moon Rock Volume 4 is a soundtrack for excursions beyond the Ultraworld..

Spread over three LPs, Moon Rock Volume 4 was conceived in sides; six distinct sets of music that move through a range of styles and sounds, from crystalline arpeggios to cosmic ambience and darker droning noise. Intended to capture nothing beyond our own expansive interest in deeply psychedelic music for not dancing, Moon Rock Volume 4 is a further step out of the big room dance floors Throne of Blood is known for fueling thanks to releases from dance music fixtures like Bicep, Daniel Avery, Waze & Odyssey, and PBR Streetgang.
Tune in and space out...

he latest installment of Roam Recordings comes from the Japanese disco scene via the production duo of internationally acclaimed DJ Que Sakamoto and seasoned studio engineer NT.

Having heard Que Sakamoto+NT's excellent single, Vulinej fell for the song and brought it to JP Soul at Roam Studios. Together they came up with a filthier heavy hitting acid bender.The second remix comes from Magic Touch who has made a name for himself for his critically acclaimed releases on 100% Silk and Tensnake's label True Romance as well as his performances at places such as Sonar, Unsound, and the legendary Panorama Bar.

Produced by the legendary Patrick Adams, the studio-bound disco unit Cloud One made its debut in 1976 with the spectacular Atmosphere Strut and throughout the seventies, became the centerpiece for Queen Constance, Golden Flamingo, Heavenly Star, and Sound of New York, all labels ran by Peter Brown &
Patricia Gilyard. At a time when most music was recorded with a full army of studio musicians, Cloud One records were mostly played, arranged and mixed in their entirety by Patrick Adams himself!!! The ability to "work on his own" allowed the music to feel more experimental than the work he did on major labels at
the time. Released in 1977 Disco Juice is probably P&P's best-known cut and for good reason. All the elements are there, a catchy melody reinforced by Venus Dodson's vocals, a driving bass line, an accentuated piano and of course the signature Patrick Adams Synth Strings unifying the whole composition
and creating a delirious and hypnotic effect. It's no surprise this Record has been a point of reference to many house music producers, and sampled famously by artists like Norman Cook and Paul Johnson. From the Streets of Harlem to the beaches of Ibiza, 38 years later this juice keeps aging like a fine wine.

After CITY BABY RECORD's hot 2016 debut from Tokyo's LIQUID PEGASUS, the label heads to LA to deliver SKY TONY's inaugural EP. "BERRI" is a sun ray sparkling through dew in the desert. A modern funk blend of Italo naive melodies & subtle UK jazz funk. 500 copies include 100 random white vinyl.
