Gold Fingers is on roll! Not long ago DeejayKul brought the deep and jazzy house element to Gold Fingers. Now it's time for HADE to continue on the house route but take things even deeper.

It's Not Right needs very little introducing, you'll be signing the lyrics straight away, it's a classic sounding as fresh and relevant in this HADE version.

On the flip, Mobb Deep Ultra is all bouncing basslines and 4/4 house in perfect harmon

Sometimes you've just got to have a bigger bike...
Eddie C steps up once again on the beloved Red Motorbike label, but this time we're taking a ride on a 12" wheeled model, rather than the usual dinky 7" !!
To be honest, when the grooves are this fat, the extra space is more than welcome

Rusty Halo is another expertly executed Eddie C rewire, as a staple singers style Gospel Soul gem is re-imagined with a devilishly good acid line and some precision peaks and drops - just deadly !

Voyage Voyage on the flip is a psychedelic Soul stomper a'la Norman Conners, extended, amended and taken on a tripped out ride...

Following on from the Slow It Down & Elijah Collins release comes a new addition to the Retrospective family in the form of Elias Tzikas. Better known for his house music production, Elias has been a global name since 1996 with his numerous productions gaining support from the likes of Osunlade, MAW, Moodyman, Kevin Yost, Joe Claussell, Kerri Chandler & Dimitri From Paris to name a few.
The EP opens with Elias' Hunt Hurt Hearts which is already picking up heat after being dropped a number of clubs in various Retrospective artists sets blending all the boogie elements that have given Retrospective it's reputation plus a driving groove. Following is Still Around that gives a flavor Elias' deep house heritage with it's vocal sample floating on analogue riffs and a weighty bassline.

Roar Groove follows on from the exceptionally eagerly awaited inaugural Body Fusion EP, with the Bugles Of Truth EP that continues The Revenge's sterling association with quality productions.

The EP kicks off with 'Close Encounters Of The Casual'; a natural showcase from the master of ascetic, synthetic raw grooves. The combination of tight drum programming and looped harmonic vocals of 'Tight Circuit Feat. Jesse Rennix', gives an energizing coating across the whole EP. These are analogue-powered club jams, with The Revenge proudly at the helm.

'Cant get you out of my mind'...or at least not Graeme's unification of the bouncy analogue drums beneath 'Oot yer nut' and cherished up-tempo hi hat rhythms of 'MDMF' that sit above eager and somewhat muscular synth rides. Driving drums bring the party to a love song; feeding fizzy melodies through exhales of arpeggios.

Once again, The Revenge consistently manages to twist our knowledge of inspirational house & disco in new exciting directions.

The Red Laser Records EP Series continues to explore the realms of Italo, Acid House, New Romantic and Disco flavours .

Nick Smith brings the early 90's house heat with In Motion. This is a four four dancer that's built solid. Minimal chunky house grooves for disco journey's.

Hot Sporran is a producer that's been around a long time and may be better known as Phoreski and Richard Gateaux.
As Hot Sporran he gets to express deeper and darker realms. Xplorer journeys to Detroit Techno with strong flavours of New Romanticism making a unique and wonderful disco sound. LeonXLeon does what it say on the tin. If there is another track out there called Acid Disco I bet you 100 quid this smashes it up and stuffs it in a bin. This is an all out hands in the air, euphoric disco bomb.

Theme From Ferranti is a fantastically moody slice of sensual Italo in true Starion style.
Finishing off another epic Red Laser EP series perfectly.

Another great House selection for this serie. 12 unmixed, extended & original versions. Including Duke Dumont, Laidback Luke, Planet of Sound, Time Square, ... and many more !!!!



[C] CD 3 | CLEAN BANDIT - EXTRAORDINARY (feat. SHARNA BASS)

Years after rumours of the mysterious Usio first started spreading, Studio Barnhus are finally ready to release the project's debut outing, an LP called Kuwa Huru. This is emotional, intricate electronic blues for the modern dance floor, with 8 tracks ranging from afro-beat influenced house jams to starlight spangled techno compositions. The double vinyl pack includes a download coupon which gives access to the original album tracks + 5 bonus tracks.

Preceded by the hit single ONE SHOT ONE KILL, released in the summer for Trumen Company editions with Warner Chappell, the artist Emilia MEIS is ready to present his first official album: LOW FLOW. The album, arranged and produced entirely by MASSYVE MASSY AKA JAY-M (producer active from '97 on projects mainly Techno / Dance), joins the eponymous single from, edited by Salvatore Palombella (Video Essence), and is a point of revenge against those who, with the previous ep 2013 (IO RIDO), had asserted that the artist had not style, flow and ability. LOW FLOW is a reminder to those who make ironic and satirical criticism for the sole purpose of his life and tells, through diverse and sophisticated pieces, the artist autobiographical moments and situations adaptable to any listener. The topics relate to the love, the passion of one night, the disappointments, the daily newspaper. It also expresses the anger and regret for a life where things do not always go as we would like. It 'a hard bearer of several messages, including the importance of music and its many facets. MEIS arises, without arrogance and through a unique style, as the spokesman of the new school. Blend sounds to present incisive rhythms and rhymes potent

Black Rox is back with 2 more sneaky Soft Rocks specials that have somehow been liberated from locked CD wallets and released into the wild for general consumption. The A side Sabu Dance combines Horns, Flutes & Percussion on this killer slice of midtempo funk from Africa via Berlin. This has been thoroughly road tested by Soft Rocks at their Kinfolk night & never fails to get a great response from the dancefloor. Side B. Don't worry it's not the tantric one's ode to voyeurism but a rare as hens teeth slice of UK. reggae at is's finest. Adjustments have been made sensitively and sounds have been chosen to carefully match those from the appropriate era. A perfect track for blissful summer evenings (yeah whatever!).

A five track masterpiece of pure 8o's influenced pop/funk/boogie from New York. Mastered by Herb Powers (Sade, Eric B. & Rakim, Sharon Redd, Evelyn Champagne King etc.) Inspired by the juggernaut pop albums recorded at Compass Point, Sunrise Highway blends Pop, Jazz, R+B and House Music into a melange that is modern, but familiar. The three members could almost be described as a "dance music supergroup" considering their collective pedigree. Tim Wagner is one of NYC's most potent producers, having earned his stripes with the boogie electro-funk driven 33HZ, and then building upon that legacy to create Dither Down Records, one of NYC's hottest tastemakers. Ask anyone who's anyone in dance music about Nick Chacona and they'll tell you he is one of the best, a DJ's DJ, but he's also a producer's producer, with a CV boasting hits on labels such as Mood Music, Buzzin Fly, Bearfunk, his collaboration with Roy Dank, Beg To Differ. Amy Douglas, has been called "the Queen of Nu Disco" by some, as in the last 4 years, she's made her mark, as feature vocalist for some of dance music's biggest bangers, with artists as diverse as Juan MacLean,Treasure Fingers, KON, Eli Escobar and DJ Sega. One listen to their collaboration by rising star, Tensnake, was all it took, and the trio was instantly signed to his True Romance label. Sunrise Highway make their international debut on May 5th.

Daniel Grau has recorded eight legendary LPs between 1974 and 1983; all of them never available outside of Venezuela though. Born 1948 in Caracas the thoroughbred musician first and foremost was one of the most sought-after studio engineers in his country. Almost any respectable artist in Venezuela (Vytas Brenner, Aldemaro Romero, Aditus, La Misma Gente etc.) was at least once in the El Palacio De La Musica-Studios taking advantage of Daniel Grau's mastery.
Just for the fun of it Grau asked some of the musicians who frequented the studio on a regular basis to use the free studio time to record some own songs and compositions under the name of - La Orquestra De Daniel Grau'. The fist two albums from 1974 and 1976, released under this moniker, already display perfectly what an adept composer, arranger and multi-instrumentalist (guitar, bass and keyboards) Grau was and still is. The influences and references, which characterize his entire, short and Venezuela-only career, are unmistakeable: North American Fusion Jazz, orchestral Bossa Nova and Latin American funk in the sense of Eumir Deodato and Sérgio Mendes.
Daniel Grau's variety of musical styles doesn't end here though. At the end of the 1970's he moved more and more towards disco music and incorporated what we today all call Cosmic Disco. And it's exactly this scene, which started to become a worldwide movement about ten years ago, which embraces now the forgotten work by Grau and numbers his eight albums among the 'holy grails' of this genre. Sonar Kollektiv member Class Brieler was aware of this when he visited Caracas in 2012 as part of the cultural exchange programme by the prestigious Goethe Institute. Together with befriended Venezuelan DJ Trujillo all the stops were pulled to make Daniel Grau's music accessible to a worldwide audience. In close dialogue with the by-now 66-years-old Daniel Grau the show case compilation at
hand was compiled. As a CD release it encompasses 27 of the best tracks out off Grau's archive. The vinyl edition confines itself over two LPs to the 15 tracks that are the most danceable. On both formats you find a new composition ('To Night'). More than thirty years after his last official release Daniel Grau returns with 'To Night' and looks ahead confidently.
Sonar Kollektiv now releases - The Magic Sound Of Daniel Grau - compiled by Jazzanova & Trujillo' as a double CD, double vinyl and as a digital download. All songs were restored by Calyx Mastering in Berlin. The compilation is packaged in a magic design by internationally renowned and Latin Grammy award winning, Venezuelan artist MASA

So far in the Highlife series, we've touched on South America, the Caribbean and Turkey in our globetrotting excursions. Our next port of call is South Africa where H+P crew member, Esa serves up two outstanding acidic takes on music from his homeland.

Number 4 from World Unknown arrives just in time to close 2011 out on a high. The party is now officially a roadblock and the label has already won all kinds of high friends in high places.

'Slum Science' was formed in 2003 by UK producer Danny White who released the 'G's Delight' EP on Daz Saund's Resident Records London Label. Collaborations with Dan Ruck & Eddie Leader saw the slumsters have subsequent releases on Deep Future, Icon, Greenhouse, Jackin Tracks and Black Cherry gaining fans along the way from heads like Mark Fafina and Derrick Carter.

Now working solo DJ schedules, Slum Science make regular appearances in the USA, taking bookings as far and wide as New York, Detroit, Chicago, Las Vegas & LA. In 2005 Slum Science released their imprint label 'Hudd Traxx' which continues to receive massive support from the underground house community.

Slum Science release their debut album (10 Years of) Virtue & Vice in October through their own well established underground imprint Hudd Traxx. The 7 track album focuses on quality rather than quantity and a new direction that will focus on a live show incorporating a vocalist to tour the album along with some classics thrown in for good measure. (10 Years of) Virtue & Vice showcases Slum Science at their very best weaving underground house grooves with melodic deep keys, dirty drums, funky guitars and samples with soulful vocals. Expect all of these tracks to feature in DJ sets of the leading names in house music destroying dancefloors with its frequently funky vibe and superb production and melodies burn themselves onto your memory.

Patrizio Mattei & Danny Omich are back on Metropolitan Recordings with two smokin' tracks taking us back to the jumping 90's full of those fantastic 909 sounds.

Seventh in the Get Lost series is courtesy of Craig Richards, 15 years resident and music programmer at the world famous Fabric Nightclub in London. After the great success of Acid Pauli and Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, Craig has dug deep to deliver an inspirational mix that is strong contender for mix album of the year.

This is Craig's eighth DJ Mix album, but this is his most personal, spanning the sonic landscape from the late 1980's to the present day. CD1 is more house and disco orientated, whilst CD2 focuses more of Electro and Techno. The album features hard to find rare gems such as Backroom Productions, Black Rascals, 2House and Kenny Larkin, as well as modern vinyl only treats by Mike Ozone, Ruff Dug, STL and Velvet Season & The Hearts of Gold. The mix also features tracks from Craig's own ground-breaking label: The Nothing Special, with tracks from Trevino, Calibre, dBridge, Keith Tenniswood, Billy Nasty and Craig himself. A fantastic mix album, which you truly can Get Lost to!

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 #29 Another Love EP is made for sunsets, sunrises and sublime moments in between. Lace up your skates with Eddie C's Cut Chop Roll Skate. Ed shows his true tricks with breaks and boogie driven funk at an easy tempo. Newcomer, Scott M, dices and sheds Vernon Burch's party anthem, Get Up-- a total party packed in and no added cheese. B/W VinylAddicted + SMQ worked together on-the-line to coax Another Love into a housed-up and broken down disco classic for solid dance fever. Tomorrow, I know, I'll be over you... And just like that, Pontchartrain gives us a lesson in love, it doesn't always last and we're gonna Get Over You.
Until next time, disco lovers...

T-lounge / Clubstar published the second volume of "house is love." Double CD mixed by Henry Khon soulful deep and classic house, with artists such as Mousse T., Boris Jennings, Todd Terry vs. Simone Vitullo feat. Lady Vale, Africanism, Ricky Montanary, DJ Pierre, and many others

Girl duo like Bananarama, Abba, Tapps, & The Flirts. A is a Hi-NRG style track a la Bobby O or Patrick Cowely. B is a romantic Eurobeat style track inspired by Hubert Kah & Peter Schilling w/a galloping DX bassline. Screened jackets.

To say the arrival of the Swedish trio 'Monitor 66' onto the scene has been explosive would be a pretty big understatement. House of Disco Records is proud to have taken them under their proverbial wing for the labels first single release, the swede's ethereal anthem 'Triscuits'. This track made huge waves when first shown to the world gaining strong support from 'The Magician' and a whole host of others at the top of their game. The track itself floats somewhere between the dance floor and the cumulous clouds above, lulling you to sleep while at the same time invigorating you. Grounded by a vocal sample from an old Keith Sweat track 'Triscuits' glides on a bed of warm synths and vocal stabs that will haunt your memory and a breakdown that reminds you of the timeless nature of just plain old good music. House of Disco Records have recruited some serious talent to re-interpret and remix this one. Previous housemate Roberto Rodriguez, future housemate Dead Rose Music Company and just plain good mates PBR Steetgang.

Last year's acclaimed Sea Power & Change EP, a melancholic project from the mind of celebrated Portuguese powerhouse Tiago, is now revisited through the lens of three essential ESP Institute artists. Side A gives us a take on Strange Fruit by our heroes Soft Rocks — a smacked up dub/boogie rendition leaving the beautifully dark mood intact whilst twisting the the rhythms toward the tough side. On side B, Secret Circuit (Eddie Ruscha of Laughing Light of Plenty, and soon to release his solo release for ESP) stuffs Wild Combination in his saddle and takes us for a ride through a futuristic version of the Wild West with a funky bassline and distant whistles, only to be rounded out by a blissed-out epic re-rendering of Yesterday Is Gone by Somberero Galaxy's Jonny Nash. Its a family affair.

78 EDITS strike again with another killer 12" for GLENVIEW RECORDS. Two booty shakin' disco edits: MILLIE JACKON's "PUT SOMETHING DOWN ON IT" b/w "I AM SOMEBODY" by GLEN JONES. Pressed at 45RPM and comes in the GLENVIEW custom die cut sleeve.

New German outsider house label TOY TONICS comes up with a superfat SLOW HOUSE 6 track EP from mighty producer DJ STEEF.
It's not Paris. This here comes from Marseille. A city that used to be big in Hip Hop - and now has a huge funky house scene. Many people there translated the boom of Hip Hop and Soul into fat, funky, slow house. DJ STEEF is one of the main guys. His releases on Magic Wand, Editorial, ZE, Superbreak and DiscoDat he has been played regularly by DJ's like James Murphy, Weatherall and Tim Sweeney.
Toy Tonics records is rollin'. Check also the last ones by Moon Runner and Hard Ton. Incl Dimitri from Paris and Daniel Maloso remixes.

This veteran Portuguese producer, head of Groovement Records, w/releases on 4lux & Clone, has become known for intricate, comprehensive soundscapes that engulf the listener and captivate the dance floor.

Double dose of jazz-funk heaven on this excellent vinyl reissue of Columbia's promo-only release of Maynard Ferguson's dancefloor masterpieces 'Pagliacci and 'Primal Scream'. In Side A's 'Pagliacci', jazz trumpeter Ferguson puts a genius twist on his unlikely operatic source material, creating a disco tour-de force that became a staple of the NYC club scene on its original release in '76, also igniting the UK's jazz-funk scene. A whirling maelstrom of insane percussion, Maynard's signature horns and one of the most awesome flute solos ever committed to vinyl, this is pure dancefloor mayhem. Over on Side B, we have the equally accomplished 'Primal Scream' - a slightly slower pace doesn't lessen the drama in this superb jazz-funk workout with tight drums and bass keeping the tension building while the brass soars above. Amazing stuff from a supreme artist. Don't miss!

10" marbled pink, single press, 400 only, hand stamped, hand numbered and no digital.

It's a family affair as Grimy returns with heat from the windy city known for amazing dance edits. Tim McAllister takes it out the gate with "Rollin'", a classic soul/disco beater replete with joyous flute trills, Leslie speaker efx and a pumping house kick. In-demand newcomer Cratebug's "Get Up Move Your Body" is a spacious, cosmic edit of a little-remembered Canadian gem. The song ends with an intuitive synth jam that will be enjoyed by DJs and home listeners alike. Longtime Grimy associate Rahaan ends things with a bang. His largely original "Buari Traxx" mixes Ghanaian rhythms with killer disco bass and the nuanced, tracky drum programming you could find on a DanceMania record. The brilliant track is built for the floor and also serves as an apt transition into Grimy Trax, a sister label that will release all new music. Chicago's still burning.

This new release from the Balearica camp keeps up the pressure with another incredible selection of sun-drenched rarities. Getting things started is an awesome extended edit of Loredana Berte's 'In Alto Mare' - a Balearic disco gem previously only available on a hard to find Italian 7' from 1980. Then picking up the pace, we get the great deep piano groove of Soul II Soul's 'Happiness (dub)' which received heavy rotation both in Ibiza and beyond. Chicago house legends Ten City keep things bubbling with the superb 10 minute mix of 'One Kiss Will Make It Better' - a floorfilling, slo-mo house groover with great horn sections, topped off with a wonderful vocal performance from Byron Stingily at his best. Finishing off this great compilation is an extended edit of the fantastic sitar-driven groove of Slim's 'Arabian Disco' previously only available as a mega-rare French 7' from 1977. Don't miss out!
