House Vinyl New Releases - News

For the next OUTNL we prepared a package with 2 of our favorite artists of the moment. On the A side we have a track by Glaswegian 'James Johnston' who has had an immense year with releases on labels such as Fine Art, Under the Shade and Boogie Originals. We are very pleased that James decided to release his deep burning ''That Was Now'' on Outernational. On the B side we find Ben La Desh. Who returns to Outernerational with the breezy but ferm ''Drug Carrier''. While his previous release 'Doctor Bills' is still making it's round through the clubs and podcasts. We are sure Drug Carrier will even turn more heads.

Spacey/synthy/dubby cassette-house from this Mancunian producer/deejay with releases on RUF KUTZ, PORN WAX, and more. Even dubbier version by the LECTRIC SANDS crew along with two 5AM cosmic-synth jammers: "RUFFY'S DAY OUT" and "LATE CRUISE". White label style in paper sleeves.

Japanese import ALTZMUSICA is a label presided over by ALTZ, who is known for releases from Bearfunk, Dfa, and Bosconi. This work is titled 'Gonno vs Altz.' It is a split EP by ALTZ and DJ Gonno, the standard-bearer of next-generation House/Techno in Japan. It sounds aureate melodies peculiar to the Japanese, deep groove, and beautiful downbeat. DJ Gonno is famous for EP 'Acdise #2' released from International Feel Recordings in Uruguay, and he will be more and more successful from now on. ALTZMUSICA has been releasing lots of works since 2005, and has sent out such artists as Grupo Chambelan, aSymMedley, and San Gabriel, to the public.

The Cellar Boyz 'Pay Me' is taken from Ben Cenac's timeless 'Cozmic House E.P' on Thug Records. Pay Me which was recorded in 1986 is the only track from the Cozmic House E.P that had available parts. The stems for Deeper & Deeper, Seems To Me & Who Loves You were never recorded. This was due to the fact that all of Ben's projects through out the '90s were tracked MIDI only at mix down, with only the vocals being recorded to tape. !

Thug would never have had the opportunity to release Ben Cenac's Cozmic House 12" if it had not been for Simoncino. Simoncino did all the A&R for the record. A gift not only for Thug but any fans of Ben Cenac's amazing productions. With that in mind, Simoncino has provided 2 remixed versions of Pay Me, alongside a remix from close friend Nicholas. !

Als veritabler Auteur der Tanzmusik kann MACEO PLEX auf eine seit über einer Dekade andauernde Karriere zurückblicken - ein Mann mit vielen Gesichtern, der unter verschiedensten Projektnamen das Geschehen auf den Tanzfluren weltweit geprägt hat, so auch unter einem seiner berühmtesten Pseudonyme, Maetrik. Doch mit der Macht kommt die Verantwortung, wie man so schön sagt, und wenn es einen Produzenten gibt, der mit schlafwandlerischer Sicherheit die haarfeine Grenze zwischen Untergrund-Attitüde und Mainstream-Scharade abzuschreiten versteht, dann ist es der gebürtige Amerikaner mit Wohnsitz in Barcelona. Ein Paradebeispiel wäre der zukünftige Prime-Time-Kracher CONJURE SUPERSTAR, eine kritische und doch hochgradig tanzbare Lektüre zeitgenössischer DJ-Hypes.

MACEO PLEXs neuester Track wird exklusiv über Kompakt erscheinen und vertieft die Zusammenarbeit mit dem international renommierten Beatschmied, die dank seines Bestseller-Remixes für GUSGUS' CROSSFADE (KOMPAKT DIGITAL 040) ins Leben gerufen wurde. Ebenso kinetisch und energisch, stellt sich CONJURE SUPERSTAR als Flurcharmeur allererster Güte dar, funkelnd mit beeindruckenden Klang-Minutien und jener Art von melodischer Reichweite, wie sie ausschließlich nur noch durch synthetische Fanfaren angekündigt werden sollte - ab jetzt. Desweiteren handelt es sich um einen wesentlichen Bestandteil der "Conjure"-Serie - eine Reihe von Veröffentlichungen, die der Produzent zum Anlass nimmt, die zeitgenössische Clubkultur auf kreative (wie menschliche) Untiefen hin abzuklopfen. Dabei äußert er seinen kritischen Unmut ausschließlich über die feingeschliffenen Werkzeuge eines versierten Studiomagiers und verehrten Publikumslieblings.

Is It Balearic recordings latest is the Reflextion Ep From Baldelli & Rocca. 3 electronic disco bombs and a quality remix from Ray Mang. Rteflextion is a driving synth italo disco stomper. Mr Mang adds a little acid and a touch odf house. Side B's first track is a classically Italo disco dancefloor gem lots of symth action a flappy percussion give this a hypnotic quality ready for some smoke drenched dancefloors. Out To Lunch is a more quircky take on the same theme. Like a lost maxi 12 b-side pf an Italian elctropop ftrack from the late 80's. great ep.

Hamsa Intenational are hitting us with some obscure and analog live jams for club use only. Rigid grooves that transform subtly by the use of frequency cuts and vocal chops make Bodytalk an interesting Lo-Fi sounding yet energetic Jam for peak hours and after. The analog warmth that's filling up the speaker cans comes straight out of old machines and a tape recorder. While Bodytalk keeps the pace of an incoming asteroid, the B side ''Endless M.I.E.F.'' is a more slow lick with smoothly filtered and progressing pads that compliment the smartly programmed analog drum works and the feels like its gently touching the ride that's on top. Clocking in just around 12,5 minutes expect a well written story. Told by machines, of course.

The new soft-spoken, hard-rocking group from Baltimore debuted their full length live show at the Wolf + Lamb Marcy Hotel this March. Following in the footsteps of greats like Nicolas Jaar and PillowTalk, they were the first invited guest in over 2 years to perform at the legendary Brooklyn proving grounds. Life on Planets is a duo that met in the studio lofts of their east coast hometown, whereby a collaboration fusing indie artrock and electronic music began to take shape. It was a pairing of two dramatically different personas, merging as one for a serendipitous, romantic sound that's now been signed to the Double Standard label. Life on Planets has also released music through Better on Foot, where the debut single 'Apollo' made waves in early 2014. The touring act features live vocals and guitar, backed by a dj/producer, dawning a long-awaited return to authentic songwriting in dance music.

If you've spent some time in the nightclubs of Amsterdam, you will probably have shaken a leg to the selecting skills of Mr. Mendel. You'll find him often spinning side by side with Rahaan, who's releasing Mr. Mendel's edits on his third installment of Street Edits. Including a respectful dance floor take on 'Mind Power', the island disco stomper 'Boogie With The Channel' and a gospel-like hypnotizing version of 'Spirit, The Power'. This soulful 12" will certainly light up some dance floors around the world...

Hi. This is Dompteur Mooner. My new record is coming out on my sublabel Super Tahoe Edits, and it´s called GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS. Just like my previous record, Greatest Hits, and Music for Espionage it´s a concept album: This time, only girls bands were used as sampling material. Because girls like to dance and girls love Pop. And us boys, too. Put it in the drawer ''New Wave / Dance Orientated Rock / Proto-House''. Limited to 500 handmade copies. Hope you like it

Quantize Recordings presents this united front of artist, producers, and remixers that have linked together to give the world a healing, an insight, and a voice to address the homeless crisis.
The list of singers, musicians, and producers that are so extensively dedicated to this Barbara Tucker organized charitable project is unbelievable and heartwarming.

The long awaited single release from Marc Evans' Soul Descendant LP "Supernatural" is here!

This beautifully, funky re production is star studded with musicians and arrangements that you seldom hear on dance music these days. It funks, grooves, and jams with a vibe that we could only capture in a live session.

You will definitely roll through the credits in amazement.
Adding to this release are the remixes of by John Morales who's work is the stuff of legends. His mix of "Supernatural" will amaze you with his killer drum patterns and wonderfully crafted arrangements.

Quantize recordings is proud to present Marc Evans doing his thang once again..."it's Supernatural"!!!!

For the final installment of the esteemed Discotheque Wreckers series
Psychemagik shine light on an other realm of crate digging with two choice
edits. 'Balearic Girl' taken from a super rare Swedish hairspray advert,
drops a heavy Haribo bassline with the sweetest summery vocal hook that
combines dreamy beach vibes with deep dancefloor power. The flip 'Spiced
Oddity' is a synth laden cosmic chugger that rounds off this series
perfectly. Look out for a cd album to follow with two more exclusive
tracks due late summer.

Bons Records from Barcelona is back with a new, very strong and versatile underground house EP. Vinyl only and limited copies.

Second release for the Italian Records Label from artist/producer Lineki. It is an intense love proposal for the Electro-Dance music genre, a deep Journey into the synth-wave dimension featured by an intense Italo-Disco bass line, quite distinctive from the 80s in a magnificent and magic vintage atmosphere. Quite interesting is also the RETRO VERSION MIX with a typical ITALO-style electric piano that interweaves with different synths in the creation of intense an joyous emotions alternated with a more sinuous and experimental bass, still charming no matter what.
J'Adore's female voice is just the cherry on the cake: sweet, sensual, simply perfect!!
For the production and mixing processes Lineki chose his long-time friend as a partner, Colinsky.

We're celebrating 50 release on Local Talk and what better way to do it than welcome Alexander Lay-Far, the Moscow-based DJ and producer to the family.
We've been following Alex for some time now. Being a driving force behind soulful and eclectic music scene in Russia, releasing lot's and lot's of fantastic music on 4Lux, Tru Thoughts, City Fly, Glenview and gaining constant support from the likes of Jimpster, Laurent Garnier, Osunlade, Joey Negro, Move D & Recloose just to name a few.

Communcation EP contains three original tracks and a remix from Daniel Leseman and Hans Peeman aka Fouk.

The opening track Side 2 Side (I Just) with it's vocal sample cuts brings a unique mood and is a joyful disco and house jam, perfect for the summer.

Get On It! continues on the same vibe with its vocal samples, the punchy kicks, slapped claps and grooved percussions, this baby will drag you into a devilish dance in seconds.

Feel Like Making Dub is a late night groover that's both soulful and deep.
Last but not least is Fouk on remix duties. The dynamic duo rearranges the already familiar elements of the original from Side 2 Side and turns it into something that would fit perfect in any DJ set with a MCDE flavour.

In 2011 Jaki Whitren & John Cartwright's original International Times LP saw a release on Emotional Rescue after originally hitting the shelves in 1982. The pair are now part of a remix EP by Misericord and one-time Internasjonal producer Al Usher, who supplies two remixes and a dub, while a spacey Aphophenia dub to the track "Times" has added for extra measure. Usher's first rework of "Stay Cool" sounds like a 2013 meeting between a purple-clad Prince and a young Diana Ross, while the Dub version sees Prince's funk make way for Giorgio Moroder sound design. On the flip is a acoustic-leaning and inspirational "This Time", which could easily soundtrack a mesmeric highway-driving scene from Thelma & Louise.

Purveyors of fine underground music, Joe's Bakery, present undiscovered balearic beats, cosmic curveballs and obscure oddities from around the world. The first two releases feature edits by a mysterious collective of music enthusiasts and record diggers by the name of Diavol. Music to be played by the pool or under the discoball

supported by: Marco Carola, Nick Curly, Butch, Robert Dietz, Amine Edge, Santé, Re.You, Martinez, Doctor Dru, Mar-T, Markus Fix, Einsauszwei, Beatamines, Pele, Nima Gorji, Steffen Baumann, Sebastian Lutz and many more...
The 10th release of mono recordings is a Various Artsis Joint with tracks by Chicks Luv Us, Emanuel Satie, Bunte Bummler and last but not least David Jach. A must have for all those who love grooving Techhouse.

These tracks are fairly special in our opinion and we are very honoured to be releasing them as the first Optimo Music Disco Plate. Noo are Daze Dasen (aka Plastique De Reve) and Sami Liuski (aka Bangkok Impact / Putsch '79). This is a double A side 12" single (plus a digital bonus track that we couldn't fit on the 12" and still have maximum pressing volume). Built out of imaginative sampling combined with analogue hardware, these tracks are phenomenally produced, lush disco string fuelled epics that fully work their magic in a club setting. This is Modern disco, most definitely NOT Nu Disco.

Craig Bratley's Magic Feet label celebrates reaching double figures, yes, the big 10, by releasing a double header from two new artists to the label.
Rich Lane updates the New Beat classic 'Flesh', bringing it up to date with modern production values, and will introduce the track to a whole new generation.
On the flip Peza, whose previous releases include the fantastic Buddah's Watching edit, provides 6 minutes of low slung electronic funk, all synth and 303's.
Perfect for the warm up or those after hours sets and a future classic in its own right.

Part one of Aroop's Brazil Breakdown series was a big hit among the main players on the jazzy scene with airplay from Gilles Peterson and Kev Beadle etc.
This second edition will definitely please all fans of the first volume but should also make him some new fans.

On this release you'll find 3 tracks in various tempos and sound but with one common detail...Brazil!

All three tracks have their own sound but are designed to rock any party where the Summer and sun is in focus.
If you’re looking for the world cup 2014 theme tunes - they're here !

Fresh remixes of Blamma! Blamma!'s slo-mo, disco track 'Zsa Zsa'.
In form duo, Psychemagik serve up a funk-laden remix oozing real class. Morphed guitars and synths drive the track, providing a futuristic tone.

Next up is Andy Cato who keeps the slow vibes of the original, whilst adding a slight balearic touch with the drums. The track builds nicely with a crescendo provided by an uplifting piano and electronic synths.

Wolf + Lamb are on the flip with their deep, rolling house remix - harnessing trippy, undulating synths to create great layers within the track. Snare drums also inject pace and groove to hypnotic effect.

Kiani & Red D inject a little more pace into the track, with elements of vintage electro infecting this house remix. The echoed vocals in parts add a chilling edge, with Kristina Train's voice sitting nicely over the top of the catchy bassline.

There's been something quite remarkable happening in the world over the past few years, the meteoric rise and modern phenomenon of the Superstar DJ, and last year the cultural home of the DJ since 1991 - Ministry of Sound were the first to bring you an album dedicated to celebrating the biggest acts on the planet and this year we are back with the follow up to last year's instalment which has sold over 85,000 copies.



Volume 2 is even bigger and better featuring 60 world renown superstar DJ's with over 3 hours of anthems, hits and remixes across 3 massive mixes. We've also included 2014's biggest names, festival headliners, legends and Ibiza residents and created the ultimate DJ collective album so you don't miss out on a second of this year's main stage events.



This epic tracklist features the biggest names both new & old including The Swedish House Mafia, Disclosure, Faithless, Avicii, David Guetta, Tiesto, Armin Van Burren, The Chemical Brothers, Fatboy Slim, Calvin Harris and loads more, this truly is the ultimate line-up.

Almost a year after the latest release from our friend Ron Deacon, we are proud to present four new trax straight from the Farside camp. Shooting stars Paskal & Urban Absolutes recorded an astonishing more clubby live version of their Farside classic in Moscow. Henry L is back with his extraordinary groove skills, some old school sample vibes and with a wink to Detroit. Matt Flores kills it with a smooth and demanding dub-tech monster and finally Henry L & Ingo Sänger keep things hypnotic with a deep sunset tune.

"Ver" from Henry L & Ingo Sänger unifies the roughness of a dirty slow stomping groove with the beauty of melancholic chords. Thrilling strings and a male vocal snippet shape the cohesive elements of this tune which develops a hypnotic feel. The result is a unique track for special moments, which is a worthy successor after releases on imprints like Quintessentials, Luv Unlimited Vibes or Tokyo Dawn.

The new stars in Deep House heaven, Paskal & Urban Absolutes, deliver us their live rework of the Farside classic "Need Love". This reduced, beefed up version shifts the focus more towards the clubs and definitely shouldn't disappoint the dancefloors. We are happy to have our friends on board since they were really busy with plenty of remixes and the production of their wonderful debut album "Lux" for Sonar Kollektiv.

Henry L is the chief when it comes to the perfect groove. In this case it gets straight to the point. "Against The Grain" delivers the funk, blends its vivid raw beat with some creamy Detroit'ish synth chords, a clonky Bassline and soulful vocal sample bits. This uptempo soulboy groover creates a positive vibe reminiscent of the glory days of Soul Train and the Detroit Dance Show.

Farside veteran artist Matt Flores once again reveals his huge dub influences on his track "Astounding". This perfect mixture of mystic pads, an 808 tom bassline and live percussion elements creates an incredible depth. Kind of minimalistic with every little detail exactly on the right spot, this might also appeal to the deep-dub-tech floors and should give you the Goosebumps, especially on a good sound system.

A few trips in Tel Aviv made Ivan Smagghe aware of the extensive and more importantly, quasi forgotten, wave and pop scene from Israel. Blown away some of the tracks passed on to him, He and The Ginger Prince thought it would be a good start for the LDDLM reissues series, edits and originals.

GAZOLINA by CHROMOSOME is one of those record hunters grail. Fetching far too much money on Discogs these days and having been a DJing classic of RED AXES for years, it was only natural that Niv and Dori got their hands dirty. Their edit keeps the raw punk rage of the original and is all the better for it.

NOSEI HAMIGBAAT's BIRTHDAY was the track that triggered it all and appears on vinyl for the first time in 30 years (I strongly recommend buying the CD of their album on Anova, a label dedicated to excavating the TA underground). This is a heavily psychedelic romp, as if the 13th floor elevator had stopped on the 1983th floor. Wave, but in a cramped style. THIS HAS BEEN LEFT UNTOUCHED, IN ALL IT'S BEAUTY.

The purists will tell me that TOVA GERTNER is not part of the DOWNTOWN TEL AVIV scene. They are right, she is not. But ETMOL (1987), a chart hit in Israel, was too much of a good pop song to let pass. Tim Paris and Ivan Smagghe are on IT'S A FINE LINE edit duty and have made up a genre for it: Balnearic, the sound of the beach and the nose bleed - pianos and hands not in the air but in your pockets, searching for those empty wraps.

LOVE TO DEATH. LDDLM.

THE VINYL WILL HAVE A SPIRAL GROOVE "LINKING" OUR EDIT TO THE ORIGINAL but still enabling you to play one or the other. WE HAVE INCLUDED, JUST FOR YOU, the "mix in two halves". If ever you play in Tel Aviv, we strongly recommend dropping it.

Limited to 500 units coming in silkscreen printed sleeves
After the success of their first EP 'Bells from the Deep End' and their second 'Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night', we are very happy to present the 3rd Golden Teacher EP with another sleeve designed and made by their fair hands. This is is an edition of 500 as that is all that time allows to be made. We are not advocates of limited edition releases but sometimes necessity dictates. Further copies will be available in the Optimo Music house bag.

Their latest release is a party record...play it loud, preferably with some lasers and strobes, and LET LOOSE.

It s a double A -side release. Party People is GoGo a go go while the more electronic leaning Love has been cut at 45 so it can be cunningly played at either speed for extra added value love. Silver Chalice is an added bonus not jazz funk gem.

Wild party music from Glasgow from our hearts to yours.

Another Hot New Osl(n)orwegian Talent high on the heels of Thomas, Hp, Terje and the likes , Tarjei Nygard, head of Untz Untz Records is no complete unknown on the international circuit. and will be even less after this release. It´s especially the B side for me here (like so often) with the thrilling mad deep four four business of 'Katapult' which comes like a mix of extra crisp elctronic spiced and ultrakompressed fjord air and brooklyn dirt , both of which grab you right there whirl you around and do not let loose.

2014 is the 10th anniversay of the San Francisco based producers 40 Thieves releasing their frst EP and now they come through with their debut album 'The Sky Is Yours' for Leng Records.Core members Layne Fox, Corey Black & Jay Williams call on their bevy of friends to contribute to the group's diverse sonic smake up. Travis 'TK' Kirschbaum was a
co-founder and key contributor and local best buds Qzen, Alona, Rita Mazlan, Jason 'JP Soul' Peters, Chris MacGrew, Masahiko Kiritani, Dave Dick, Victor Critchfeld, Colin Klingman, Dave Kurzman and Larry Hamilton have all played various roles in past and current productions. Over the years 40 Thieves have connected with likeminded labels including Rong Music
and Permanent Vacation to release a small handful of original singles and EP's. One in particular, 2008's 'Don't Turn It Off,' caused such a commotion it wound up on a few
dozen CD compilations and was voted Best of the Decade by Beatport in 2010. Over the next few years the Thieves had the chance to remix great artists including Kid Creole
and the Coconuts, Gary 'Chocolate Star' Davis, Plastique De Reve, and Johnny Dynell. Whether they're creating cosmic odyssey soundscapes or lazy mutant house, 40
Thieves like to interweave live instrumentation with programmed electronics, their sound would be equally at home at the Mudd Club circa 1983 or in the headphones of an Ibiza
beachgoer circa 2083. Whether slack or upbeat, 40 Thieves always aim for the head as well as the foor. The Sky Is Yours will be released on two separate gatefold double LP's each containing 10 tracks.Essential!

San Francisco threepiece live band PillowTalk are surprising dance music treasures. Manipulating pop melodies, classic R&B, soul and boogie into the loose rhythms of house music and performing live on stages in nightclub settings across the world, they have bridged an impossible gulf between worlds and created new expectations for electronic producers and live musicians alike.

Their success is twofold, for not only are they stand out performers capturing the stage with Sammy D's bold and sultry vocals, multiinstrumentalist Ryan Williams' dextrous guitar and keys and Mikey Tello's fluid synth work (not to mention their matching classic black tie attire) they are also musical chameleons. As comfortable creating the upbeat 80sinspired synthpop heard in lead single 'Lullaby', as the psychedelic funk of 'We All Have Rhythm' and the classic rock and roll of 'Devil's Run', PillowTalk also adeptly deliver slow electronic ballads ('Naive') and house driven anthems ('If I Try') for their eloquent debut LP, 'Je Ne Sais Quoi' on their home label Wolf + Lamb. A soundtrack to long nights, lazy days and the hazy space between sleeping and waking, the record spans everything you want from the band: sunsplashed jams, peaktime party tunes and lowlit moments of intimacy.

The compilation series which collects the rarest and most expansive disco collector items ever. (stock expected in the next days)

Music is strongly linked to memory; sometimes just a simple note will trigger a deep feeling of nostalgia or emotion. The new Homesick series was created by music enthusiasts who are living half a world away from their birthplaces. Their concept is a play on memory, to re-edit and rework songs from the past into something which is timeless; tracks which feel fresh but retain their memories.

For the first release, the Homesick team have curated three pieces by Drop Out Orchestra, Late Nite Tuff Guy, Zimmer, and Amadei. DOO have carefully reworked "No Scrubs" into a warm, bass driven, disco jam suited for the dancefloor;ALNTG has provided a solid Groove Theory lesson as only he can, and the EP is rounded-off with a special (double) bonus track for all the people who love 80s-era French pop music, reworked by Zimmer and the Asia-based newcomer Amadei.

Cheating EP is the first record to be released by Low Budget Family, an independent Moscow-based record label run by the crew behind the legendary Shop&Bar Denis Simachev formation.
Cheating Track is a heads down workout, a no nonsense, broad bottomed, synth riffing number with an irresistible old-school rave sensibility.On the flip Cheating Song strips things back, adds some space and a vox delivery and production style reminiscent of Azari & III.A bold and ballsy debut from this Russian collective...

'Black Frames' is a creation from two major life transitions for Dave Aju, namely the end of a long-term relationship combined with a move away from his home town of San Francisco. Punctuated with philosophical statements and political punches, the former MC proves he isn't afraid to use his voice and production skills to unite music and passion with his latest album on Circus Company. The outer rhythms of deep-rooted electronic music form the backbone of 'Black Frames', while its veins are filled with the red­-hot attitude hip­hop, outerspace soul, and forthright lyrical content. A remarkable variety of songs covering topics such as personal relationships ('Psylica'), cultural issues ('Race on Haight') and global government actions ('Law') rock alongside bass­-centered dancefloor bombs like 'Nu Threads' and 'Clean St'. Through its body, Aju also tips his hat to 60s psych rock, early 70s fusion, and the soft undertones of blues as can be felt in the Magnum Opus of 'Vins Noirs' with it's full choir finale, the wildly fun and uptempo 'Bee's Birth' and the reflective close of 'When We Drift'. With a decade of releases under his belt and remixes for the likes of Nicolas Jaar, JT Donaldson and Herbert, San Francisco Bay Area native Marc Barrite AKA Dave Aju is a true maverick of the electronic music scene and 'Black Frames' is a proper follow-up, both a literal nod to the classic 60s/70s artwork that hung in his home studio, and a bold statement toward that rare place where breaking a sweat and breaking the rules come together. Aju's distinctive voice, a fixture in his production and live performances, has proven to have a life of its own.

After a small hiatus Matthias Vogt and C-Rock finally got back together in the studio to present another Motorcitysoul masterpiece and convincing follow-up to last years Carry On single. The song features conspicuous vocals by the drumming singer-songwriter Phil Fill making it an eager and exhilarating confession to the playground love. The remixes of Lithuanian standout producer Mario Basanov contribute pure dancefloor magic. While the Vocal Remake offers a sentimental 80s disco feast, the Remix version is riding his distinctive Vilnius deep house vibe. A promising foretaste to Basanov's upcopming full length album "Journey".

HEDONISM MUSIC presents SIMION 'U+I'. Time for another huge discovery from the mysterious SIMION, a man who made an impact by remixing Ben Pearce's underground smash "What I Might Do" with great chart success, by topping the Beatport charts. After his releases "Don't You" and - Warning' on Berlin's finest OFF Recordings he returns to the Hedonism Music hometeam and delivers a jacking monster ready to take any club by storm. 'U+I' contains a fine selection of mixes from London deep house hero Betoko, Verona's tech house legends Paul C & Paolo Martini as well as Leeds based Sankeys resident Darius Syrossian.

The response on the Afro/latin house workouts from Jose Marquez on Basic Fingers has been big since his remix of Celiz Cruz 'Elegua' back in 2012 and we're really happy to welcome Jose back.
This time with two remixes that take the African rhythms of the originals and work them out into some definite floor stompers.

Sassouma Kouyate 'Niani' kicks off the A-side, a track guaranteed to stick in your head for days.
This spruced up remix gives the original a hefty dose of extra punch, just the way we like it.

Afel Diallo 'Yele Kae Ye' on the B-side is Afrobeat sweetness and surprisingly addictive.
