House Vinyl New Releases - News

After his highly acclaimed album Dripping Point in 2009, his first very own Tacky Dream EP and a nice remix for Marbert Rocel on Compost Black Label, Teheran (Iran) born DJ & producer Shahrokh Dini finally is back with a new 12". For this EP, he teamed up with production mastermind Jan Krause from Beanfield.
Besides the album and some 12"s on Compost, Shahrokh's release history is spiced and bottled with lots of good house music on labels like MoodMusic, KID Recordings, BBE, People That Make The Music, Strictly Rhythm, Ministry Of Sound and others. He's also working on remixes for Yoruba's Gabriele Poso and for BAR's "White Noise" on Italic Rec.

As DJ, Shahrokh is resident in Karlsruhe's Mood since more then a decade and recently got a new residency at "Trust" in Berlin. He usually spends the summer time in the southern territories of Europe, thus he usually takes part in the (Off-) Sonar Festival in Barcelona, ADE in Amsterdam and the party circus of Ibiza every year, also Dubai & Miami. Further he'll be hosting parties in his home town Karlsruhe, such as After Art or events for ZKM.

Liquid Phonk was established in 1999 by Patrick Lesser and Mirko Koenig. When Patrick performed his first live act at a large private party, Mirko (who played a DJ set at same party) noticed him and the two decided to try working together in the studio.

In fact, the co-operation between the two worked very well on the first attempt, although they both preferred different kinds of electronic music. Little by little they formed a common style and soon the first demo CD was finished, which they handed over to Patrick Lindsey after a party night. A few months later, Patrick and Mirko had a record deal in the bag, which they owed to the title "Daydreamer". In Summer 2001, only two years after Mirko and Patrick met, they finally released the very first Liquid Phonk vinyl on Patrick Lindsey's SCHOOL Records label, followed by the second release one year later. The last release was on Lindsey's new label, IDPL. After putting the project on hold for a few years, both Mirko and Patrick, went their own musical way (Mirko founded the DJ team 'Deepkins' with his old friend Christoph Shane and Patrick had a few techno releases on Bangbam, Labil and May Recordings). The two have now renewed their musical bond, and jointly, with renewed vigor and sound, there are various planned releases on Lifted Digital, Foul & Sunk and Compost Black Label.

The third volume of the Salamanca edit series. The A-side contains a heavy southern rock banger while the flip side features two new wave / popish edits of tracks that are just too good to get lost in time. Again the sleeves and labels are hand stamped with love. Limited to 300 copies!

Harald Grosskopf is a member of legendary German cult band ASHRA (ASH RA TEMPEL) around guitarist Manuel Göttsching. In the beginning of the Seventies he was drummer for Classic Rock band WALLENSTEIN, the COSMIC COURIERS and on a few albums of KLAUS SCHULZE. Subconscio sounds like a water serpent orbiting around a black moon; elusive artist Efestion and krautrock pioneer Harald Grosskopf lead the beast.

Common Edit is back with the 9th Instalment.

Newcomers to the Common Edit family this time around with Free Association and Honey Disco's Hristo.
#9 delivers in true Common Edit style with one for the floor and one for the bedroom.

On the A side, Free Ass serves up 'Free Sensation' a sumptuous ditty to get the ball rolling. Alluring lyrics pull you in to this dubbed out journey of love that keeps you lusting for more.

On the flip in true B side fashion, Hristo lets loose on the loop with 'Heat Market'. Slow and steady on this gem, with a sleazy clavinet and guitar swooning into a fury of horns - cosmic funk of the highest order!

300 released for distribution and copies given away at the release party in Edmonton, Canada at 'The Common'

The Fx Mchn has unplugged itself from the London Housing Trust offices just long enough to run off these three documents for Narrow Gauge.

'Art 2 Mouse' starts with a gritty, little drum box punching way above its weight before the heavy machinery rolls in for reinforcement.
'Mono Life' slows the tempo with a close-up shot of the intricate interlocking cogs of an Fx Mchn track.

On the flip side we move to a wider-screen format for a helicopter ride over the oil-drum beats and tribal chants of 'No Place To Go'.

The ever-so mysterious producer Tommy Rawson digs deep into the crates and comes up with two quality reworks for Gold Fingers.

Combining warm and soulful vibes with a house touch 'Peculiar' is a real thing of beauty. On the flip Tommy presents 'The Kids', a track with a somewhat more folky approach and with it's perfectly placed strings amping up the drama.

Another solid gold 12

It has been seven years since Audika last issued an album of Arthur Russell material. The wait ends this summer with Corn, nine tracks Russell recorded in 1982 and 1983.
In collaboration with Russell's partner Tom Lee,
Audika's Steve Knutson compiled Corn from Arthur's original, completed 1/4' tape masters. Russell himself compiled this material on three separate test pressings—labeled El Dinosaur, Indian Ocean, and Untitled, respectively— in 1985.
Russell fans know something of the Corn sound from Audika's debut release, Calling Out of Context (2004),
which included four songs from these sessions: 'The Deer In The Forest Part 1,' 'The Platform on the Ocean,'
'Calling Out Of Context,' and 'I Like You!'
This new collection includes rhythmic alternate versions of 'Lucky Cloud,' 'Keeping Up,' 'See My Brother, He's
Jumping Out (Let's Go Swimming #2),' 'This Is How We Walk on the Moon,' and 'Hiding Your Present From
You,' along with 'Corn,' 'Corn (Continued),' 'They and Their Friends,' and the closing instrumental 'Ocean
Movie,' one of the most beautiful and curious Russell tracks ever to see the light of day.
With Corn, Audika reveals yet another side of Russell's staggeringly diverse artistry, following the avant-electrodisco
of Calling Out Of Context, and its companion EP, Springfield; the orchestral works 'Instrumentals' and
Tower Of Meaning,' compiled and released as First Thought Best Thought; the 'Buddhist Bubble Gum Pop' collected
on Love Is Overtaking Me; and Russell's definitive solo masterpiece, World Of Echo.

Record hunter, beat maestro extraordinaire and all-round Mr Nice Guy Lucci Capri, famous for his Messalina Edits series, follows up his debut "Kilimanjaro" on Kenneth Bager's Music For Dreams with an incredible catchy Balearic beat chugger "None Left For Me". Sounding like a lost gem but made with classy contemporary production, this simple yet effective track has huge cross-over appeal full of rolling baselines, melodic synths, and a great male hook with shades of the 80ties Wang Chung classic "Dance Hall Days". Mr Capri keeps up the quality and shows personal style and pure imagination with second track "U Used To...", a very different hip hop take on the Spectrum/Coma Club classic by Ralphi Rosario - here sampled, stretched and edited to massive effect for the smiling dance floor. Flip the coin and the Balearic goodie bag continues with the second release on MFD by "Magic Wand" specialists Coyote. "Juicy" is a horizontal tune with just the right amount of dubbed arpeggios, chilled pianos, sunset strings and a hint of Barry thrown into the mix for good measure - a great combination that should definitely keep the Balearic boffins happy. Second track "House On Rocks" is a spaced out percussive journey almost like a Jan Schulte jam - spoken words, cosmic keyboards - Coyote on top form! Another great package from Music For Dreams and essential stuff for the beach patrons. Watch this fly..

Archeo Recordings is a reissue record label that regenerates old, lost, obscure (and forgotten) rare gems of Italian music of the 70s and 80s, and not only.
All outputs are licensed by the artists and the vintage labels; audio tracks are remastered in their original form; the sleeves and center labels are graphically recreated for today but all based on the original images.
Archeo would like to make the music available to a wider audience of collectors, DJs, music lovers of a forgotten time.
All releases are hand-numbered limited edition vinyl. The first 100 copies of each release are pressed in coloured vinyls.
This release is individually 500 hand-numbered limited edition. The first 100 copies are pressed on GREEN vinyls (AR003).
"Safari of love" is bloody unique, a true visionary oddity, filled with strange breaks, sound design, mumbling voices, crazy pre-acid echoes bouncing everywhere, and majestic, typically italian-OST strings and keyboards.

This epic space jam hit where it hurts and showed no mercy. Beyond evil production by Allan Goldberg (producer/arranger for Santo, Slang, Azoto, Gaznevada) with Vince Tempera killing it on keys, you can't go wrong on this drugged out monster!
This sounds next level even now, you can only imagine what it must have sounded like in 1977, a mighty beast that kicks the discoball out of the stratosphere!

And here is something exciting for you. Amsterdam's Mr Mendel who had a proper 2014 already with releases on Basic Fingers, Street Edits and Lumberjacks Boogie debuts on LiH as well. For killer reworks for the soulful dancefloor.

Stacy Kidd Pevet Everett back to Minuendo after "Los Dedos Cortados" in another record, now is a special 10" with two fabulous vocal tracks and special collaboration for another Chicago house legendary Maurice Joshua.

33-10-3402, also known as Serbian-born artist/producer Nenad Markovic, returns to the ESP Institute for the third release in his opium den and whorehouse inspired Mecanica series. Slow Port is a cacophonous track, skillfully composed of an erratic barrage of percussive klinks and klanks as you might find in an automotive factory—pistons, gears, quips, cranks, but despite its industrial instrumentation, Nenad manages to extract a beautifully seductive quality from this beast. On Side B we're faced with the slightly more musical Plutonium Certainly, an exercise in distortion which is punctuated by repetitive androgynous chanting, and finally we culminate and release simultaneously with Elika, an overtly ethereal blur somewhere between hope and melancholy. To fully appreciate Nenad's crafted subtlety, we recommend repeated listening.

33-10-3402, also known as Serbian-born artist/producer Nenad Markovic, returns to the ESP Institute for the fourth and final release in his opium den and whorehouse inspired Mecanica series. Metamorfoze is a psychedelic melting pot which can best be described as a train commute to a distant planet—our senses confronted left, right and center by unfamiliarities. Its counterpart on Side B entitled T Bov boasts a pseudo tribal rhythm, yet its post-apocalyptic soundscaping takes us anywhere but the expected. At this point Nenad has managed to whirl our imagination into a state of confusion so deep that we're simply at a loss for words. Its in these moments where we at the ESP Institute are most proud, with the birth of something absolutely new. Bravo Nenad, bravo.

Lets Get Lost vol. 26 ... this time Jacques Renault steps up to the plate with 4 quality edits.

Italian band N.O.I.A. was amongst the first electronic music groups to emerge in the late seventies and early eighties alongside peers like Kraftwerk and Depeche Mode. Nowadays they are re-releasing their back catalogue alongside a carefully curated selection of contemporary remixes and this latest package features Rule To Survive with a remix from Prins Thomas.

We bring you the first release in a series of disco reworks inspired by the mouth-watering dish that is "the Schnitzel", brought to you by the artists that are now said to have appropriated the most important traits of this breaded beast: Crunchy on the outside, juicy on the inside and best served with a slice of lemon.

Starion's sound has been a fundamental part of Manchester's Red Laser Records since the very first EP back in 2012.

He has released many tracks on the labels EP series and has now finally completed his long awaited first solo EP.
We are treated to Starion's amazing signature sound throughout but with even deeper production, an increasingly sophisticated arrangement and sound design. A real treat for all Manctalo fans


Hypnoto Roboto is a throbbing Italo chug bomb & a dance floor smash. Starion kicks of the EP with his signature synth disco sound. A Blade Runner club jam made for android only dance floors


 Next Kid Machine gets on the remix. You can't hold a good Machine down and Manchester's Kid Machine especially. This cybernetic horror jam is one of his best productions to date and epitomises the unique style that has Italo Electro fans all over the world collecting his music eagerly. This will not disappoint. The production is slick and the atmosphere he creates reeks of the future. Heavyweight synth action right here


 Starion comes with Mindbender the killer boogie jam. 80's electro and disco collide in a fantastic chug filled synth soup. Give me a large bowl and watch me glow like the Ready Brek Kid. Amazing future retro floor filler


 Moonbase Alpha is like the music you get on an 80's film trailer on VHS that you can dance to. This moody piece tells a story as it moves you toward the dance floor. A story of forgotten encampments on moons far away, the survival in isolation and the horrors that play out in the minds of the abandoned settlers

great bootleg for the new Metropolitan by Varen! The sound is taken from the late 60 'and transported in our clubs with a massive groove and dark basses! This summer you will hear about it .... Limited!

Young Pulse is back on GAMM with Vol.2 in his 'Paris Edits' series.

If you bought the first EP and liked what you heard we're confident this one will be in your box also.
Starting off we go straight to the club with 'Enjoy & Relax', a soulful disco stomper that is reworked (or remixed) to perfection by Young Pulse.

On the B side you'll find a jazzy bossa edit of soul classic 'It's a shame' together with a feel good disco-funk edit of GQ's classic 'Shake'.

Classic GAMM material, no fuzz!

Londoners Kiwi and Ashworth return to Sneaky for a follow-up to Dawn EP, the warm, dusty and at times experimental release, championed by the likes of Daniel Avery, Eric Duncan and Tiefschwarz. The past few months have been busy for both halves of the duo, with Kiwi signing to Duke Dumont's Blase Boys Club and remixing for house music super-labels bPitch Control and Get Physical, whilst Ashworth has signed music to Tomoki Tamura's Holic Trax and NeedWant. Second EP takes a new format, with two original tracks 'Alaska' and 'Na'am' on the A-side, backed up by a Nicholas & Marcoradi remix of CUX3 and Ranacat's remix of Zubr. Alaska could be described as an amalgamation of the inspirations that lead to the first Sneaky release, combining the pumping house beats of CUX3, the comforting Wurlitzer of Zubr and the ethereal movie-soundtrack Dusk. Na'am is something totally different, existing mainly as a collage of recorded and found sounds, avoiding the usual structure of house music in favour of something reminiscent of the weirder side of the Chemical Brothers. Strange though the track may be, the climax would undoubtedly move a room full of pilled up ravers to a state of frenzy. The B-side remixes both hint to dance floors of the 90s, with Nicholas and Marcoradi making you wait and wait before dropping an unforgettable piano hook, whilst Sneaky's Ranacat lifts Zubr out of context and into peak time territory.

Blood Sugar Sex Magik is Mustafa aka Harry Knuckles (Yellorange) and Scott K (Box Music)

Handpicked by Carl Craig for his first release on the label, veteran producer Fabrice Lig delivers an inspiring album of hi-tek funk, soul, house and breakbeat with his 'Galactic Soul Odyssey' album on Planet E.

'What is touching me in Fabrice Lig's career is the way he is following his own line, without caring about trends, and that's the path an artist should follow. It is not post Detroit, it's an emotion.' - Jean-Michel Jarre

A high school teacher by day, father of three and deeply passionate music devotee, there's an undeniable sense that Fabrice Lig was cut from a different cloth than most.

The Belgian artist, also releasing music under the Soul Designer moniker is responsible for the classic 'Walking On A Little Cloud' album on Laurent Garnier F Communications, as well as a slew of pivotal Detroit-influenced cuts on labels such as KMS and 7th City Records that captured the essence of the iconic hotspot's spirit while retaining Lig's trademark free-flowing funk.

For his debut full length on Planet E, the dexterous producer has crafted an album of contrasts that gleefully scribbles outside the lines for an otherworldly 12-track trip of galactic proportions that mines inspiration from everyone from Todd Terje to Marvin Gaye and Quincy Jones, while retaining an undeniable thread to the Motor City.

Launching with the steely tension-filled 'Born To Be Wise' that sounds somewhat akin to the opening musical score of a Bond film, if said flick was set on Mars, the tempo is soon set to disco via the ultra smooth vocal injection from Hard Ton on 'Celestial Love Rising'.

There's a heavy hint of a future house classic when Lig teams up with lauded vocalist and former Octave One collaborator Ann Saunderson for 'No Judgment' that's already been generating serious heat since being released as a single recently. The masterful 'Oostende Blues' is the Belgian's own masterful tribute to his hero Gaye spanning energetic tech funk that gradually tempers to reveal more tender melodic tones. In a highlight heavy album, the work is fittingly rounded out by the Terje-inspired 'Superstring Theory' that mixes up disco, funk and '90s rave vibes all executed with astounding compositional skill - no mean feat from an artist who's never had a music lesson in his life.

The sounds of the new generation of the 80's Italo disco. Melodic electro, synth-pop, italo disco. All for fans of the 80's! 6 track mini lp!

Part-time tram driver and full-time disco disciple, Helsinki's Jaakko Eino Kalevi catalyzses street smart funk into heat stroke for Yin Yang Theatre, his new EP on Beats In Space Records.

The title of Yin Yang Theatre came to Kalevi as an epiphany while dining in Washington Heights on a stateside holiday.
"I was feeling bad about something and I thought that speaking out would be the solution. Almost immediately, I realized that confrontation is not the solution for every situation. The right balance is a combination of both: confrontation and patience. Yin Yang Theatre as a metaphor of life"

While Jaakko's enlightened metaphor guides the six songs of Yin Yang Theatre, it does not sequester their inspiration to separate sides of the platter. Instead, the inspiration bakes a perfect pie using the tracks' irreverent and irresistibly bohemian ingredients.

Following the metaphor manifestation of 'Speak Out', Ying Yang Theatre's second act is 'Pass the Cat', a step-by-step instruction manual for a midnight hour game made up on a late night during another one of Kalevi's many NYC visits (think Hot Potato gone feline). Before intermission, 'Sensaatio', a love song sung in Jaakko's native tongue, invokes the heel tripping effect of love at first sight.

The undulating analog ode to Greece of 'Tecno Souvlaki' and 'Let the Energy Be Your Teacher (Part 1)' explore even softer rocking inflections of Jaakko's work at the top of side B before 'XO-Tic Grlz', a percussive deconstruction of 'Pass the Cat', quickens the EP from an introspective to extroverted finale.

Each 12" on Beats in Space Records features original artwork in considerate and serial form. Hiroaki Koshiba, a frequent collaborator who paints during Jaakko's live performances, composed Yin Yang Theatre's artwork in similar practice. The 12" packaging constructed by Will Work For Good features a removable vinyl BIS logo cling.

Following the incredibly well received Record Store Day release of Donna McGhee's Make It Last Forever, Groove Line Records continue with another Patrick Adams & Greg Carmichael produced classic, Lady Bug, by BUMBLEBEE UNLIMITED, the second in our series of 12' audiophile reissues from the Disco underground.

BUMBLEBEE UNLIMITED was a studio disco project from Adams and Carmichael, and along with their work with groups like Universal Robot Band and Inner Life, is credited for pushing the boundaries of dance music production. Their 1978 classic single Lady Bug was taken from the groups only album, Sting Like A Bee.

Side A is the Disco Mix by John Morales and Frank Trimarco. A solid kick opens the track before Morales's trademark percussion is introduced. Then the slick bass, guitar and piano groove play alongside the innovative synth lines and drive the rhythm forward, before the addition of that simple but engaging single note piano groove... the core element of the track, and the synthesized vocal between the Lady Bug in question and the bee who's chasing her. At approximately 6m30 there is an extended build-up where each element returns before the fade.

Side B features the Disco Remix by the legendary Larry Levan. Starting with the full drums and percussion Levan adds each element at an earlier stage than the Disco Mix, so the full track, including the vocal, hits you at just over a minute and doesn't let go until the fade, giving a more intense dance floor experience.

All Groove Line Records releases are fully licensed and taken from the original master tapes, remastered by Nick Robbins at Sound Mastering, and cut by Matt Colton at Alchemy (Mastering Engineer of the Year 2013). All vinyl is heavy weight 180g and manufactured by Optimal Media in Germany, one of the world's finest pressing plants. Groove Line Records cut no corners when making sure that each and every one of our releases has the highest quality performance possible. Groove Line Records' deluxe audiophile reissue of Lady Bug is an essential purchase for any serious Funk, Dance, Disco or House vinyl collector who demands the very best in quality vinyl pressings.

The debut release from LOCAL KAFFEE this EP features edits by BOTTIN, SLEAZY MCQUEEN, ALBION, THE IVORY BOY and AVANTI. All tracks are edits from obscure Italian songs released between 1974 and 1980. Comes in a handmade jacket, limited pressing.

Red Motorbike has been a handsome vehicle for Eddie's own, ever-essential output, alongside some specially selected collaborators across 9 glorious releases.

Get on !

Pole Jam Vinyl proudly present their 4th release the 'Lady Leopard EP'.

Star striker Cassara kicks us off with the first of his two tracks 'Lady Leopard'. In true Cassara fashion this is another seriously funky, French Disco House track that hits the back of the net every time.

New signing Darko Kustura has one goal in mind and gets his debut off to a winning start by slotting home with his super smooth track 'Peninsula', effortlessly gliding us along on top of lush electric piano keys.

Cassara goes on the attack again, kicking off the second half with 'The Forest'. This time he takes things just a touch deeper, keeping us locked in with a series of mesmerizing step-overs and a seriously hypnotic looped vocal.

London duo Benny & Gain round off the release in fine style coming off the bench to score the winner with their melodic Nu Disco gem 'Approval'.

Yoruba Records is happy to welcome back label veterans Kiko Navarro and DJ Fudge with this tribal leaning surprise release. As the name BabaluAye (the praise name for the healer in the Orisha system) suggests, this package has taken on a diverse world music approach. The original mix opens with crystal clear vocals that compliment the wide array of live drums featured throughout. The mix comes into its own with the addition of atmospheric underlying keys and melodic guitar riffs. The club cut comes with a more pronounced, driving beat clearly meant for the floor and features well-crafted jazz-like piano lines sure to capture listeners in a trance. Le Soleil's mix uses a smooth bass line that takes charge of the track and is complimented by a rhythm guitar and a hint of ambient keys that add fullness and depth to this cut. Moyuba has provided us with a seamlessly crafted dub that edges on the border of tech house and is as club ready as they come. Finally, the Cosmic dub brings this release to a close with a slow, rolling bass line, drawn out atmospheric synths and well placed stabs that will keep the room moving into the early morning.

Quality reissue of the mega-rare Blow Up records release of the Italo masterpiece Pink Footpath by Loui$. Originally released in 1985, this gem has become one of the most h ighly sought after Italo Disco tracks around. On the A side is Magic Dance which is good, but it's the instrumental version of the track Pink Footpath that really gets the disco DJs drooling. With its killer analogue b-line, dreamy synths and Balearic guitar riffs, it's easy to see why it became such an anthem at the early Ibiza parties as well as a late night favourite in Chicago and New York. Highly recommended.

Taken from his album L'Aventura, Sebastien Tellier is gearing up to release a remix EP for 'Aller Vers Le Soleil ' on December 10th, with contributions coming from Tom Furse (The Horrors) and Hercules & Love affair. The Ep includes Ricky l'adolescent single with remixes by Principle of Geometry and Walter. Have a look at the artwork, from Valentine Reinhardt.

It's mildly comical, that Tim Wagner and Amy Douglas, two former Long Islanders would choose Sunrise HWY (former Sunrise Highway) as the name for their venture, but one listen to the music, and it's clear as to why they chose such a lofty and expansive name. Sunrise HWY is atmospheric, sophisticated, broad, and most importantly a return to the song as king.
After the successful debut EP on True Romance in 2014, we are excited to have the remix EP finally coming out. And it's not just some remixes, we managed to get two of the best remixers around at the moment. Italy's finest Tiger & Woods and Tuff City Kids from Germany.
Larry Tiger & David Woods delivered a very hypnotic version of Sunrise HWY's ‚Some Kinda Fool' while Gerd Janson & Lauer aka Tuff City Kids did their reinterpretation on the originals of 'Never Enough' and 'Compass Point'.
And if that's not enough, we added their very own Dub to the package as well. Make sure you get your hands on the 12 inch vinyl as that is a must have in every collection.
