House Vinyl New Releases - News

Amsterdam native Mr Mendel is one those cats you’ll find digging in the deepest vinyl crates but also one to hook up seriously tight edits.
On his debut for Basic Fingers he's played around with Gil Scott-Herons live version of 'The Bottle' as well as Fela's 'Roforofo Fight'.
With some smart tweaks and additional production Mr Mendel delivered a fantastic EP of soulful black dance music.
Just put it on and dance away :)

From the man who once compared EFUNK The Mixtape to a "triple-breasted female terminator from the future" comes Love My Life, retro-future pop gold served with cheese on top. Stephan Armleder aka The Genevan Heathen, who has appeared on Soul Clap Records before with his cover of Egyptian Lover's The Alzeby Inn, is a frenzy of word play, cult status and dapper dress. Here he invites background vocalist Amy Douglas and takes us out for a day in the Heathen life:

In The Heathens words:

"It's all in the title. It's about loving your life, loving yourself, loving the people who matter to you. It's like a little postcard from heaven. I wrote this song under the influence of the most amazing woman I have ever met - a woman who taught me how to enjoy the good times and learn from the bad times.

If you listen to the lyrics, you'll hear mentions of multiple women - it's fun to live vicariously through songs, it's like looking back at your life like it was a movie, adding that extra Hollywood spice to it. But at the end of the day, all the ladies in the song are just various incarnations of the same woman, real love.

I originally wrote it to a loop by my friend Goon Kid back in Geneva, and later on Tim Wagner of Dither Down fame made a whole new instrumental for it and gave it that 80s movie end credits vibe I love so much. It's just feel-good music to enjoy life to!"

On remix duty, Soul Clap transforms the tempo and vibe into a dance groove guaranteed to get the juices flowing like a glass of funky cold medina.

LIMITED TO 200 ONLY ! Jimmy The Twin presents "Midnight Mamma" including 2 bad ass reworks of 80's Boogie Monsters.

Rampant crime and outta space violence! Mario Moretti strikes back with his long awaited Spaziotempo release. An amazing appetizer for his debut album coming later this year. Four heavy club bangers including a Franz Underwear remix. Limited supplies!

We are proud to introduce our first artist ep "Easydance" from no other than M.ono. He returns in full strength
for his first solo record by setting up all the favorite ingredients we all love in his tracks.
Always groovy, always fresh and always highly-danceable.

Albany: Albany displays his knack for hitting the perfect groove with the addition of a perfect sample
that will get you dancing for hours. That's just how he rolls!

Holding Back California: Pow - Clap - Pow - Clap - add to that some mind bending sweeps and phasing,
a deep groove, a dash of filtering and some strings and you'll see yourself holding back California.

Kithara: It began in Africa! M.ono goes tribal and you're invited to join the ceremony.
Driving yet gentle, he takes you for a rhythm ride which echoes with ethnic lingering and foreign heartache.

Hypnotize: Classic house, filtered and phased vocals stabs and some percussions to boot,
keeps you hypnotized . The house equivalent of a t-bone steak. Right there for you to start munching!

PGH production machine w/3 tracker: deep house, a disco edit, & some abstract techno. 550 hand-numbered, multiple-color, individually-unique, hand-stencilled jackets.

Humberto Matias, AKA Social Disco Club, has proven time and time again that his devotion to disco, in all its manifestations, knows no bounds. With releases on labels from the four corners of the globe the sound he produces is established to a level akin to perfection.

For the eighth release on the Gold offshoot of the Hands of Time imprint we are treated to two re-versions of at once recognisable but near indecipherable disco classics. Side A majors on an infectious conga infused repetitive funk break that's been supported by Erol Alkan amongst others whilst Side B offers a sound closer to a classic house sound from around the turn of the century. Both are tension builders that ultimately shoot their load with explosive results.

Re issue of the classic 'Donnie' composed by Larry Heard & Chip E with vocals from Robert Owens from 1986 on DJ International Records. Released in conjunction with the DJ International Records rights holders.

Freshly mastered for 2014 and re issued in original 1986 artwork. You won't find a copy that sounds like this! Includes Ron Hardy remix!

Auch im Jahr 2014 wird der Dancefloor wieder ordentlich wackeln! Und wer jetzt schon wissen möchte, wie die angesagtesten Hits des Jahres klingen, der sollte hier zuschlagen! Mit Tracks von Polarkreis 18 / Real 2 Real /
Afrojack / Paul Kalkbrenner / Fedde Le Grand / Moguai /
Nervo / Wamdue Project etc und vielen, vielen mehr!
2CD, Laufzeit ca. 130 Min.

from the tropics comes Whiskey Disco, a sneaky re-edit label bent on dredging the decanter for diffident dancefloor genius
from latent disco perpetrators. It's loosely connected to Sleazy McQueen and his assorted cohorts.
Whiskey Disco #25 It started in 2009 when a friend rang Sleazy McQueen and asked to "press some of those edits he's been
making" and has now reached its 25th vinyl release. Time flies when you're having fun-- and fun has always been the
cornerstone of Whiskey Disco. Back To The Roots ep exemplifies the label mission and the disco hippies who cherish it. Loops
filtered, space rocked and jam band, Whiskey Disco has made a mark on the edit scene that few can dispute and we've only
just begun.

Wolf + Lamb & John Camp are no strange bedfellows. In 2013 John contributed to tracks on Wolf + Lamb records, including his remix of Soul Clap's "Need Your Lovin" and his work on No Regular Play's "Birdfeathers" making him a seminal part of the family. "Make Me Fall" is a timeless tune featuring the haunting volcal work of Patricia Edwards. Driving hi-hats are peppered with jazz saxophone leading the listener through a soaring arpeggios that make it easy to fall in love with this track. On the flip Navid Izadi brings his own sound offering a dynamic spin to the original.

Optimo Trax is an offshoot label of Optimo Music for tracks aimed at DJs/dancefloors. Yes, we know there are too many record labels already, but we felt an overriding desire to start another one as so much music that didn't seem quite right for Optimo Music (i.e. music that was specifically designed for dancing) kept coming our way. Like the parent label, Optimo Trax will release music by new artists and excavate forgotten classics.

Long time friends and allies of JD Twitch, Milan's Barking Dogs run the fantastic Serendeepity record shop in the basement of which lies their analogue sonic laboratory (photo here) where they create live mutant funk masterpieces. Funk is an often mis-applied term but these tracks ooze it from every pore and you can literally hear the Dogs wrestling it out of their machines. Eccentric for sure but certified dancefloor winners for those bored to death with generic, lifeless, clinical dancefloor fodder.

together with his buddy dj kent the japanese producer and ardent record collector kza already wrote some music history. under the name force of nature the two friends from tokyo created a rich oeuvre of not dated music under the guidance of their large vinyl collection.

beside their own work they produced and remixed in and outside of japan artists such as dj shadow, five deez, sly mongoose, or keiichi sokabe.

in the last years force of nature been quite in terms of collective production work. kza, who once started his music career as a dj for hiphop, soul and funk, released a solo album and a string of highly acclaimed 12inches on endless flight while dj kent emerged with his own unique sound and musical style to one of the most highly respected djs of japan.

now kza is ready to release his second solo longplayer - dig & edit 2' - an album whose title tells much about the production of itself. like for the antecessor - dig & edit ' a voluminous record collection and the ears of an unlimited music lover has helped kza to shape his unique sample based arrangements.

anew he went through his vinyl library between midnight and morning searching for miscellaneous rhythms, harmonies, and melodies that he could turn into something fresh, new, and singular. as he is in love with loops and trained his ears by the work of sample grandmasters like pete rock, large professor, or marley marl he knows exactly where to cut and edit - a skill that makes his music never sound like a conventional edit production.

with plenty of studio artifice, the help of his friend kuniyuki, and some super tight editional bass and rhythm programming that has been added to the original sources he produced tracks that gently balance between breezy disco fever, laidback balearian slowmo emotions, and highflying house attacks.

each of them is full of sensual grooves and is charged with catchy folk, rock, disco, or library samples who's origin can be only deciphered by those who dig records as deep as kza does.

of course, all listeners who aren't into record digging will have plenty of pleasure too. because it is not necessary to know which mysterios source kza used. one can easily be carried away by his wave of grooving arrangements without thinking about where they are originated. some of the tracks that are listening to german and french names like - computerstimme' or - vous dansez' evoke the feeling of a sweaty disco night, some feed hungry house floors with real deep fodder, and others are ready to function as a sunset soundtrack wherever the sun goes down.

when kza produces them he had a dancing audience in mind that moves to his exquisite dj selection. that is why each track carries the groove to the melody and way back to deliver music that took some inspiration from the past in order to spread something that is made for the future. as kza would like to have the superpower of teleportation he invented it by himself.  it is musical model and it can travel very far! 

On 'Leviathan' Freeform Five teams up with the legendary Róisín Murphy for an exercise in irresistible vocal power and anthemic, feel good appeal. Tom Trago delivers an incarnation of 'Leviathan' that highlights the shimmering synths and melodies and puts the funk edge and drum beats centre stage. Cage & Aviary provide a slice of dirty electro tech in their remix teeming with solid claps and bleeps and FX.

Summer is upon us, the cold winter days are over and this can only mean one thing, the return of Hed Kandi's longest running album concept. Beach House is the epitome of Hed Kandi and perfectly symbolises the sultry summer hedonism of a beach party. As Hed Kandi's only chilled offering of the year, it's the ideal summer soundtrack, whether you've plugged in your earphones for some easy listening by the pool or you're dancing on Bora Bora beach as the sun sets.
Beach House has a solid reputation both in the UK and internationally and is a firm favourite with all Hed Kandi fans. Spread over three discs of sun-kissed summer grooves, Beach House has been flawlessly selected by our very own Es Paradis resident DJ, Ben Santiago, Ibiza's finest Hed Kandi DJ on the circuit. With Mix 1 consisting of traditional Beach House anthems, Mix 2 featuring blissful, chilled nu disco and Mix 3 presenting deep house at its finest.
Featuring the iconic summertime sounds of MK, Lee Foss, Sandy Rivera, Kings of Tomorrow and Frankie Knuckles as well as sunkissed beats from FCL, Yousef, Miguel Campbell, Audiowhores, Mario Basanov, Husky and many more.
To tie in with this iconic Hed Kandi album concept, we will be throwing a weekly Beach House party every Monday at Ibiza's very own Ocean Beach Club. The opening party kicks off on 3rd June so if you are hitting the White Isle this year then don't miss out!

IS IT BALEARIC side label Magic Wand returns with another stunning VA collection
in the celebrated series, and comes jam-packed with four fantastic Balearic wonders, respectfully extended and amended
Magic You bet

Pachanga Boys' REBOLLEDO and Gomma Boss MUNK doing a single together! And when two freaks like them meet for music ñ the result has to be a masterpiece of craziness!
Surf Smurf is a dirty 60ies Surf Rock song gone electronic. Sounds like a David Lynch soundtrack for a movie he does in 2030.
The boys made two versions of the song. While Rebolledo did a 12 minute dub techno orgy that flows around the basic guitar lick ñ Mr. Munk has put in some more energy: he created a dirty rockabilly house track that recalls the early Depth Charge or Weatherhall sound.. bringing back the analougue vibes and kaput drum machine sounds.
Also the bonus track You Got It is a bomb. Techno Yes! But warm & dirty. Pianos meet Acidlines ñ the stuff that DJ Harvey would play. When the guys start to sing "YOU GOT IT, BABYì - you can't remain quiet. This shit is rollin'.
This cooperation might sound weird to some, but it comes quite natural: Rebolledo and Munk have a long time Ñhistoryì. Rebolledo has been a Munk fan since the beginning. Dropping Munk & James Murphy's ÑKick Out The Chairsì song and Munk's Aperitivo album on his mexican partys years ago. While Mathias has been djing a lot in Mexico the last years ñ expecially in Rebolledo's club Topaz de Luxe. Musically they have a similar history ñ but showing different shades. It's was time to do a Pachanga Gomma clash.

Our very own Brandt Brauer Frick step in to mix the first DJ-KiCKS for 2014 a genre bending blend recorded live at famed Berlin club Watergate.

There we are : Two years have passed already again since the last single by Jazzanova, "I Human".

"Never change a winning team" is the name of the formula for success with the current coup "Now There Is We". Once again Paul Randolph takes care of vocal business and wrote lyrics that are as uplifting as only he can provide. The outcome is a infectious hybrid of vocal house and soulful pop. When Randolph repeats the line "There was me, now there is we, I never go back..." at the climax of the song, you notice that he's not only celebrating a romantic triumph, but also the community spirit of a well-functioning band, well maybe even of a party in sheer harmony.

The trademark of the track though is the ultra deep bass line along the sophisticated live drum programming fitting every house-set perfectly. Therefore you get that's how service orientated Sonar Kollektiv is the instrumental version on the flipside of this illustrious 10inch of vinyl.

Double awesome!

The Emotional Relish series reaches it's conclusion with this fourth release that sees rising DJ and producer Daniel Avery at the helm. In barely 2 years Dan has gone from up and coming DJ to one of the producers in demand, with releases on Optimo, Thrones Of Blood and Phantasy Sound, plus a CD mix for Fabric and with a debut album due in the Autumn, his trajectory is assured. Opener "Airstrike" is a straight up slice of acid house filled with chugging synth bass and 909 claps that are all about dark, sweaty dance floors. The track is kicked even harder when The Horrors band member Tom Furse steps up and eschews his psychedelic roots for a driving remix aimed for big rooms. A surprise maybe from Mr Furse, but all the better for it. On the flip, "Input // Machine" opts for the distorted old school warehouse approach, a bubbling acid bassline is married to heavily pitched vocal samples. "Sleeper" ends proceedings on a melancholic note, quite fitting as this marks the end of the series as a whole.

For decades the DJ has been the pioneer of the dancefloor and is deemed as pop music's true revolutionary. So with this in mind Ministry of Sound has decided to bring you an album that takes you on a chronological journey through some of the most seminal club records of all time.
Last Night A DJ Saved My Life is an epic 3CD collection starting from the late 70s disco era and moving all the way through to the modern day resurgence of House. We have handpicked 60 soul dance grooves that have shaped the career of some of the most recognised artists.
First comes a groove in the shape of Donna Summer followed by Chic, Chaka Khan and a Marvin Gayeanthem, sampled in Robin Thicke's 'Blurred Lines', that still to this day packs dancefloors across the globe. We then move into the House that Jack built, an undeniably defining moment for dance music introducing the likes of the producer/DJ movement with tracks from Frankie Knuckles, David Morales and Masters At Work. Here you can find some of the most credible anthems of the era alongside the artists who took this sound truly into the mainstream with Rosie Gaines, Crystal Waters and Ce Ce Peniston. We round things up with a mix of classic dancefloor anthems from modern day superstar DJs including Armand Van Helden and Basement Jaxx moving right up to the present with huge #1 hits straight from the MoS camp including Duke Dumont andStorm Queen.

One of Chicago's most slept on remixers drops this 12" on TUGBOAT EDITS featuring two of his best edits, unavailable anywhere until now: "SNAKES" and "CAVEMAN". In 2013 he had releases on PERSNICKETY, GRIMY EDITS, and LUMBERJACKS IN HELL and rocked it. Hand stamped and numbered 12".

Chart-topping electronic duo Royksopp present 'Running To The Sea' - their first new single since 2011. 'Running To The Sea' features stunning vocals by the platinum-selling Norwegian artist Susanne Sundfør.
Remixes from Late Nite Tuff Guy and Mexican production duo Pachanga Boys !

Veteran disco aficionado packs the jams w/sounds from across the disco spectrum. Sexy disco guitar, slow motion funky, cool electro, upbeat electro w/Latin influences, synth funk, Afro synth funk. If you like those old, this is for you!

There are few new releases that create such a buzz of excitement as a fresh single from Chicken Lips and with good reason. The Stafford based production duo of Andy Meecham and Dean Meredith have been working together for well over twenty years now, topping the charts with Bizarre Inc. in the 90's and helping to shape the sound of modern dance music as Chicken Lips. Everything they do has a unique and original feel to it, driven largely by their obsessive attention to detail, their vast musical knowledge and their unending commitment to vintage analog equipment.

2012 saw Meecham and Meredith join forces with South London's Southern Fried Records and so began a new chapter in the story of Chicken Lips. The duo's first single 'D.R.O.M.P' received a rapturous response and threw the Lips straight back into the limelight and with the recent high profile re-release of their 2001 anthem 'He Not In' on Defected with Eats Everything on the remix they are once again a name on everyone's lips. Now they return with their brand new single, the outstanding 'All That You Do'.

The package opens with the original version, a gem of a record built around a funk-laden bassline, disco guitar licks and Charmaine Baines' soaring soulful vocal. 'All That You Do' also has one of the simplest and catchiest top riffs that is guaranteed to stick in you head after just one listen! Brilliant!

The remix package contains a superb remix from The 2 Bears and Hot Chip Man Joe Goddard who reworks 'All That You Do' into a brooding and atmospheric slice of House music with a bassline to kill for. And Meecham and Meredith roll out their solo alter egos with Andy providing a stunning Emperor Machine remix that mines the Chicago vaults and Dean a bleeping Acid House winner as The Rhythm Odyssey.

A brilliant new single from Chicken Lips with remixes from Joe Goddard, The Emperor Machine and The Rhythm Odyssey there really isn't much more you need to say!

Following on from four volumes of well received vinyl releases, Rory Phillips' 'Mixed Fortunes' singles series returns for it's fifth outing. After collaborations with Martin Dubka and L-Vis 1990 on the last two volumes Phillips goes it alone for this, the penultimate instalment in the series.

Successfully road tested throughout the long hot summer, opening track 'Circuit' is a playful piece of analogue machine music, starkly contrasted by it's flip, the sprawling 'Rise Up' which begins as a basement dub jam before evolving into.. well, you'll see.

The release coincides with Mixed Fortunes Live, which makes it's debut with a full band at the last ever DURRR party on November 9th.

DJ Support for the series has come from right across the board: Including, Erol Alkan, 2ManyDJs, The Chemical Brothers, Aeroplane, Prins Thomas, Brodinski, Headman, The Magician, Daniel Avery, Andrew Weatherall, Danny Daze, Mighty Mouse, Classixx, Punks Jump Up, Joakim, and Jacques Renault.

Disco Bloodbath's latest sees the man behind the Tusk Wax empire swap his A&R hat for a pair of producer pants and team up with the highly talented Causa for a four track EP.

'Confide' is a moody slo-mo chugfest with vocals courtesy of Tusk himself. Causa's dub strips back the groove and let's the synths wig out, while Scott Fraser aims for the floor and provides a sterling remix full of clattering drums and acid flourishes.

The package is rounded off with Iniciar, a stunning ambient synth piece with a sci-fi soundtrack feel.

New in the Highlife series are two fresh gems from Basel in Switzerland. Introducing a Turkish toe tapper by Mehmet Arslan and a tropical treat from Alma Negra, both of the Family Affairs crew in the city.

Yes....we release records. Yes, it's marvelous to
see that journey from the spring to the sea, that

DeTestimony will be released on FFFt on the 20th January initially as a very limited edition 12" EP with mixes by Justin Robertson, Optimo (Espacio), Robot84 and A Finiflex Production.

Since the late 80's Finitribe have continued to plough their own particularly distinctive furrow, releasing albums and singles on their own label Finiflex, Chicago label Wax Trax, One Little Indian, London Records and finally bowed out with their final album release Sleazy Listening on Infectious Records in 1998. At this point there were only two of the original six members left, David Miller and Philip Pinsky. Perhaps feeling they'd reached the end of the line, they chose this time to bow out gracefully. However several singles like 101, Ace Love Deuce, Forever Green and of course, DeTestimony are still regularly spun on club-night dancefloors across the world by the likes of such revered gentlemen as Justin Robertson, Andy Weatherall and Rocky & Deisel. Fast forward to 2012. Trevor Jackson of Playgroup infamy approached Davy Miller with a view to licencing DeTestimony for inclusion on his forthcoming release, Metal Dance 84 - 88. With this agreed, further correspondence led to discussions regarding re-releasing the track around the time of its 25th anniversary. With the idea favourably implanted in his mind, Davy contacted original Fini Tribe member, John Vick, who now owns the highly successful Finiflex Record Studio in Leith Edinburgh. During discussions regarding possible re-mixes, it came to their attention that legendary Fashion designer, Paul Smith, used DeTestimony on the catwalk during London Fashion Week 2012. The signs were all good - already there was interest in various corners of high class international couterie.. A plan was duly hatched. The result of which, being the re-release of DeTestimony featuring brand new mixes from:- Justin Robertson, Optimo, Robot 84, John Vick, Graham Massey, Frenchbloke/ Tauchsieder. The revival started in earnest last Summer with Davy Dj-ing at Café Mambo in Ibiza, followed by another wonderfully received DJ set at Dundee's Rhumba Club's Festival of House in October of last year - their first return to the club since they last blew the roof off in 1991. More details on further DJ and live sets as and when the details arrive. So far several Summer festivals have shown great interest in bookings. Welcome back Fini Tribe, one of the finest purveyors of alternative Balearic Beats ever. In the meantime, here's a word from a certain man of wealth and taste, who has been a long-time supporter of Fini Tribe. Over to you Mister Welsh:- "More than any other act, Finitribe defined my love of dance music and provided the soundtrack to my social life of the late eighties and early nineties. These weren't the songs I grew up to, they were far more important than that; they were the songs that I refused to grow up to... Irvine Welsh
