Deep Edition Recordings 2nd wax pressing welcomes a newcomer to the label in the form of Acasual, a secretive producer, artist and designer originally from Luxembourg and now based in Germany, has been heavily influenced by the city's underground House & Techno culture. Acasual is a project focusing, among others, on music production without any limitations or specific genres, taking its inspiration from art in general. His sound is Melodic and very expressive and always searching to keep it simple. The Blue Ep lays down 2 very cool deep house tracks with a great selection of vocals and grooves.
On Remix duties we are excited to welcome Matches, this guy is already very popular from his tracks and remixes with Danny Daze and after featuring on Noir, Toolroom, Defected & Draft this guy is literally about to blow up onto the scene in a big way! His style of cool crisp and really well produced house has seen him making big waves from over in Miami and with this remix he is on form, taking the lead track from the depths of deep into a mainroom groover.
On the B-side Martijn label head and artist of Neurotraxx Deluxe & Save Room provides a remix of 'Still Got It' adding a touch of pace to the slowed vocal track and dubbing down the vocal giving the lush use of chords time to breath and roll over the new added groove.

New L.I.E.S! They did it again!! Check!
Just when we had our doubts about the West Coast, Los Angeles via NYC producer Delroy Edwards steps up with his debut release for L.I.E.S. Musically Edwards takes his influences from that Barney's Ghetto sound with oversaturated 909 shuffling highs, DX bells, 101 filters and ends up making fresh, and yes, melodic ghetto style tracks that somehow get stuck in your head even without vocals. A unique take on a modern classic with the dancefloor in mind.

Anonymous artist reveals a diversity w/3 tracker. The EP starts off with a Tangerine Dream vibe, moves into jackin' territory, & finishes on a deep melodic tip. Good response from Nebraska, Disco Nihilist, Infinitestatemachine, et al.

Once again Rollerboys have put together an Epic Disco compilation. This time they have invited Mark E & Prins Thomas, in addition to the home team Bogdan Irkük a.k.a. Bulgari & Ultracity. The EP contains 4 brilliant tracks, ranging from Slow Epic to Chicago House.

It's time for Midnight Love Club! If you like House and Techno, if you like sexy basslines and raw beats, if you like oldschool and newschool, and if you like midnight and love and club, this label is for you! Watch out for the likes of Chicago Damn, The Rhythm Odyssey or Robotalco! MLC loves you!
Starting his career on Mark E's Merc Music label, Chicago Damn is now one of the hottest UK producers and has been establishing himself with more tunes on labels like Wolf Music, Quintessentials, Wurst Music or his own Chicago Damn imprint. And he will soon have triplets and is preparing his first album! Sounds like a lot of midnight action!

New upcoming release on Wild Oats Music! This Project "FunkinEvil" Is the long awaited bollaboration between London Producer FunkinEven & Detroit's Kyle Hall. Super raw serious synthesizer machine soul mastered from warm Reel to Reel tape to Detroit Virgin Vinyl.. Features the keyboard soloing talents of Underground Resistance Timeline band leader Jon Dixon...

One half of the prolific duo Mista Men, Mella Dee, steps up for his second EP of 2012 following up the recent CTRL EP on Coyote Records. Having already had a slew of releases under the Mista Men guise with production partner Woozee (on labels such as Unknown To The Unknown, Cheap Thrills and Greenmoney); his work has been revered by the likes of Mosca, Blackdown, Beneath and B Traits. The Ruffcut EP sees the Doncaster-based producer exemplify his skills as a solo producer
touching upon House, Garage and even Grime territory for a snapshot of his own personal influences.

The first gotwax! release features label owner b-trak with a two-track EP with dub-inspired analog sounding techno and house music that invites you on a journey between the dancefloor and pure listening pleasure.
'Infinity' brings you to an ethereal space of subtly changing, reverberating chords substantiated down-low by a warm and heavy bass line combined with a tough bass drum that pushes you forcefully further towards an indefinite horizon. Driven by smooth pads, sizzling HiHats and Claps, yet minimalist all around, 'Infinity' takes you on an endless trip into the deepness of time and space.On the flipside, 'The Answer' is a more raw production where chords meet each other in a short feedback loop and the bass line gives the underlying serious reply. Claps, HiHats and a marvelous mind-bending pad nothing more, nothing less lock you into the groove with no possibility to escape. A track that is hard to resist.
Mastering & Cut by Andreas 'Lupo' Lubich at Dubplates & Mastering. Pressed by Optimal-Media each record is Hand-Stamped.

We are proud to introduce a new member to the Platte family. It's DCNT aka Franklin De Costa. The Producer who is also an excellent DJ, has been making music with his collection of analogue equipment for more than a decade. With his steady output on labels like Trapez, Curle, Greta Cottage Workshop, Resolute and Mule he has established himself as one of Germany´s top addresses in terms of deep and soulful electronic music and has managed to create his own unique sound signature.With his DCNT project De Costa transports his very emotional way of producing music into something more focused and straightforward. You can hear this on our latest Platte 005 Release, which presents a nice range of styles over four tracks, that make it as useful for DJing as it is for home listening. The latter becomes very obvious with Abyss, the B1 track that gives the 12-inch its name. Breaking out of the 4×4 template this Neo-Detroit journey is a good example for De Costas ability in building up dense and complex ambient synthscapes and melodies that steadily evolve into ecstasy.
Komakim comes along with a flat beat like bassline garnished with a chordy synth stab that makes the track a testament to the power of simplicity in dance music.With Strawdraw and Irvine on the A-side of the single, the tooliness is very obvious. Both tracks intelligently rely on the fundamental elements of music pitch, rhythm and time. Pounding bass heavy grooves and loose rippling drum patterns sound like the producer turned of his sequencers grid to create a record that is so obviously both vintage and current at the same time.

What a package we have here!!
After success of 'Welcome To My House' (Qmt044), Lemy Leopard come back on Qalomota with another funky EP.

The Detroit veteran and "cousin to Omar-S" known as Leonard "Big Strick" Strickland returns with the follow-up to his well-received 2011 long player, Detroit Heat. Where that largely stuck to deep house, this set casts the net much wider, offering a mixture of sparse, melodic techno, hypnotic tech house and even ambient moods (check the luscious "Days Gone") alongside Strickland's simple-bit-effective deep house. Check, for example, the classic Detroit revivalism of "Reese Cup", the chiming melodies and jackin' beats of "Code 1" and the curious piano jazz of "Slow Ride". There's also a track written with friend Omar-S, the wonderfully deep and fluid "Family Affair".

Exemen turns up on the flip and takes things to a grimier space with dubwise organs and ear-piercing synths

NCW returns to the fold for Apartment's 4th release. Pharoah And The Goose is a tale of 2 sides; 10 minute-plus tranced out jazz and techno explorations meeting somewhere in deepest space, most likely a little lost. Go forth and discover...

Society of Silence is proud to present their very first lp!
Society Of Silence combines the forces of two great Parisian artists and friends, Benoît Legrain or BNY, and Nicolas Villebrun known as Tite and for his production assistance with the electronic pop-rock group, Poni Hoax.'Signifying Monkey' plays around with it's words just as much as it's structure, while 'Beat Reading Detroit' takes us through a nostalgic journey into the collective subconscious of techno. The confluence of dark and euphoric energies conveyed here by S.O.S. capture the dangerous and thrill-seeking memories going to old-school raves and after-hours parties. Deep and raw beginning to end.

Groove Armada drop their second single for new home, Hypercolour, this August with the 'No Ejector Seat' EP.

Raising more than a few eyebrows with the announcement that Hypercolour will be the massive dance act's new home earlier this year, Tom Findlay and Andy Cato swiftly explained why with an EP that indulged their long standing passions for the sort of raw, interesting electronic house music that the increasingly noteworthy UK label is renowned for.

The new release, 'No Ejector Seat' EP, takes in four brand new tracks from Findlay & Cato and yet again sees them joyfully immersing themselves in gritty warehouse grooves. The musicians other influences aren't far away though, with dub and disco aesthetics in particular bleeding through in particular on tracks like the epic, slow burning opener 'Activate my Heart'.

Elsewhere, raucous warehouse and early '90's sounds, albeit updated with respect and finesse, inform tracks like the jackinfused 'Always Take Me Higher' and the out-and-out mind melting aggression of 'Chicago Chicago'. 'The Vicksburg Cut'' slows the tempo a tad but does so to create a steady template that serves as a slick and entertaining walkthrough of the duo's perspective on classic house tropes. A fitting close to an EP that celebrates the wide-eyed early days of house.

First release on vinyl for the Sicilian Aurour Records!
We have chosen for the debut of our first release on vinyl two Italian artists, new talent and owner of Wilson Records, Fabio Monesi, and the affirmed producer Mirco Violi.
The release is a good quality split, a mix of '90s underground classic sounds in Fabio Monesi's tracks, and most Deep sounds in Mirco Violi's tracks.
In A Side we can find the deeply house tracks by Fabio Monesi: "Drugsnare", energetic and by the title we can imagine that the snare leads the track."Machine", where the softer synth drags you along with the female voice In B-side we have, instead, the two tracks by Mirco Violi, where the Deep sound envelops you in a long journey through vintage sounds and hypnotic synths.Do not miss this split of pure MADE IN ITALY sound.

The mysterious Zohar nobody knows who he is, but what we do know is that his music is truly remarkable. We first took notice of him for his great records on the equally fantastic label Quintessentials. His love for Philly Soul samples is one of the reasons why he is such a perfect match for Tenderpark since we are big Philly lovers ourselves. Brooklyn 9.30 AM and Dog Day are full of wonderful Soul references and so is the Drei Farben House Edit of Brooklyn. Another deep quality outing from Tenderpark.

Ziro's debut release aims squarely for the dark heart of the dancefloor. Punishing 4x4 kicks ride thunderous, swollen basslines to devastating effect. It's an astonishingly simple formula but it serves as a bold statement of intent from the young producer.Early support from the likes of Mosca and Brackles on Rinse FM and BBC Radio 1 saw Ziro invited to record a guest mix for Mary Anne Hobbs' XFM show back in January - a significant feat for a producer with no releases to his name.

Discotexas ist eines der momentan am meist beachtetsten Labels in der Nu Disco/Nu House-Szene - und das hat einen Grund. Die erste CD Veröffentlichung gibt einen guten Überblick über die Bandbreite der Künstler und versammelt einige ihrer besten Stücke der letzten Monate. Von Justin Fausts Hit-Single "Girl Talk" hin zu Kamp!, dem Geheimtipp aus Polen ("Cairo" im Moullinex Remix). Aber ebenso findet man Mirror Peoples "Feel The Need" (Munk Remix) mit Vocals von Rowetta (von den Happy Mondays), Moullinex & Xinobis Collabo-Track "X Marks The Spot", die Debütsingle der Studio-Zauberer Jay Lamar & Jesse Oliver ("Diamonda"), den Pariser Disco-Produzenten Zimmer ("Slave to Your Heart" feat. Jeremy Glenn), Appaloosas "Patchwork" im Remix von ex-Mustang ATTAR!, die neue Electro-Pop Sensation Rebeka und viele andere. Kein Wunder also, dass die Stücke von führenden DJs und Produzenten wie z.B. Mylo, Aeroplane, Dimitri From Paris, The Magician, In Flagranti, DJ T, The Glimmers, Jaymo & Andy George, Horse Meat Disco, Mighty Mouse, Rory Phillips, Bag Raiders, Faze Action, Bottin, Munk, Social Disco Club und vielen anderen supported, gefeatured und gespielt werden. Endlich erhältlich auf CD - nicht nur für Fans von Kitsune, Permanent Vacation oder Gomma!

UK's Fudge Fingas debuts on Rush Hour with his S.V.T. EP, which includes the modern soul classic 'Snow Day'.
Fudge Fingas aka Gavin Sutherland, mostly known for his releases on Prime Numbers and Firecracker, has been quite prolific over the past few years with releases out on various labels, but when he approached us with this three track demo, it was just too good to leave it untouched.
'Snow Day' is a dream-perfect, lullaby-like, reminiscing-heavy song about a... snow day. We are not sure why, as there is not much sun in the UK last time we checked, but we are sure that this song is so hot it will melt away any cold day.'Vin 2 Win' lifts us up and reminisces us back to back to the good old days somewhere in the mid nineties when Underground Resistance was giving is their take on 21st century funk. Amazing keyboard business.'Trans Pennine Express' closes off this EP in a delightfully deep manner. A great tune to close off the night, or start up your day.Three cheers for Fudge Fingas!

HOUSEWORX PROUDLY WELCOMES TWO NEW ARTISTS TO THE LABEL FAMILY!

THIS RELEASE WILL BE COMPLETED WITH AN BRILLIANT REMIX BY MATT STAR!

New stuff from O*RS and Break The Surface: The two Leipzig-based record labels team up for a split release praising fresh disco und happy hooklines. Metasound & Lucius14 on their side of the record show us what a laid back, soft and fizzy alternative to ordinary dancefloor music should sound like.
O*RS comes with Panthera Krause on the one and Dominik Marz & Leon Holstein on the other hand. First spins the knobs in Marbert Rocel, the latter are the hope of the new house bastion in Germany - Augsburg.

It's time for the italian House hero again - Nicholas! He has been all around in the past and he just can't do wrong. When it comes to proper US influenced house music, Nicholas is the man. His new full release for Quintessentials proves his talent again. It's all there: the beats, the basslines, the pianos, the vocals! We love that! Grazie Nicholas!

n August 4th 2011, the Sony Music warehouse in Enfield, North London was attacked during riots and looting that affected many areas of the capitol over the course of a week. The warehouse burned down completely, taking with it millions of CDs and vinyl stored by the distributor PIAS including the back catalogue of Freerange. The blow was devastating for many labels, with the logistics of manufacture and minimal insurance payouts meaning that recreating the entirety of their old stock was completely impossible and many releases have been lost forever as a result.
Vinyl is beloved of many not just for its retro appeal and alchemic audio qualities, but because of its physicality, the very real and tangible connection it gives you to the sound and art of music. Increasing interest in small scale and localised events like listening parties and Record Store Day proved that while vinyl might be an archaic niche interest in some respects, its power in binding together musical communities and inspiring passion and loyalty is still very real and current. Which is why we've brought together this box set of tracks from 12's lost in the fire and other music previously unavailable on vinyl: not to commemorate wanton destruction, or to mourn a loss, but to celebrate a lesson learned and a passion rekindled. Out of the ashes comes renewed determination to build for the future.
Trying to represent the label and artists from over one hundred and fifty 12's and thirty LP's was never going to be an easy task. We wanted to included a mixture of out-of-press favourites (Jimpster's Dangly Panther and Milton Jackson's Ghost In The Machines) as well as more recent digital only releases (Deetron's mix of Tony Lionni and Axel Boman's mix of Lovebirds) to give both the newcomer as well as the long-standing fan a representation of Freerange. The resulting 5 disc box set is something we're very proud of and want to send thanks and good vibes to all those DJ's, clubbers and music fans who have supported us over the years and helped enable us to do what we love to do; releasing the music we have passion for and believe in.

Electric Avenue artist J Cub is at the helm for the third release from Saints & Sonnets, a label that continues to justify the widespread hype laid upon Huxley, the Deep House poster boy that runs it. Much like J Cub's previous work on Electric Avenue and Foot & Mouth, "Crying Over You" is a perfectly judged slice of deep house, with the gently rising emotive production made all the more memorable by a excellent vocal turn from Bibi. Saints & Sonnets also keep up their impressive track record for remix commissions as two of electronic music's best vowel eschewers contribute excellent and varied revisions. Rush Hour's BNJMN elects to dice up the vocal refrain as well adding some rhythmic kinks to the original's straightforward groove, yet it's the way he reinterprets the melodic element as a monstrous wave of synthetic emotion that makes this remix special. In contrast RNDM opts for the kind of stripped down groove you'd expect from a Laid artist, allowing him the space to loop up Bibi's vocal and treat it to all manner of delay atop an increasingly expansive melange of audio vibes

New Trackman Lafonte & Bon Qui Qui - Raw analogue house music!
When computer programmer and music enthusiast Lowrell "Trackman" LaFonte was relocated to a small suburb North of Santa Barbra California a chance
encounter brought him to meet Bonquiqui Pardue. As he scoured his local break to find someone with a resin patch kit to fix a fresh ding in his favorite tri-fin fishtail, Bonquiqui, dental hygienist, and also an avid
surfer just so happened to have a kit handy and a union was born. From this moment on Lafonte & Bonquiqui were inseparable, often hitting the clubs and
immersing themselves in Latin Freestyle and obscure local house productions from the smog filled Valley. As it would have it, eventually the two moved in together and began working on their own music, using strictly Casio drum machines and keyboards. Inadvertently, Lafonte & Bonquiqui pioneered a sound now known by the masses as "Surfer House." These three tracks stand as a testament to a time in California music history that can never be recreated, no matter how hard the posuers at the local break try.

Save The Blessed comes first out with a very limited 12inch, an awesome mixup between deep and Detroit oldschool techno sound. Belfie' s originals goes straight into the analogue mood of this brand new label. Xenogears (from Restoration) remix is a massive dancefloor killer that complete this spacial issue.

Geek Emotions - the first single from forthcoming Hot Coins album, features an amazing duo of mellow house remixes from Ajukaja and Gerry Read. Ajukaja offers up a lovely take of the original, with warm, chopped up analog stabs and a perfect driving drum line, Gerry Read provides the B-side, diving into the depths of deep house and coming back with a beautiful mix of lush synths and mechanical jabs

I am not here to represent Kindimmer; his records speak louder than my words ever could. I am here for all those that don't have the chance to dance right now: mothers, fathers, readers, workers - at least three hundred people who want to dance but trapped at work or in traffic or somewhere else. We are on a mission, gentlemen. We must send the entire Diaphan deep vibes to aid our king in the preservation of not just ourselves, but of our dancefloors. Send Kindimmer for the slow and dark house rhythms. Send Ray Okpara for the crazy drifting house beats. Send 'Jack it' for a reason. But most importantly, send our artists for memorable moments on the dancefloor - that their passion bonds us together, that we party harder to their records, and that your waving motherfuckin' finger in the air reflect their bravery.

Euphonic Moods ep by Brett Dancer. His first release on Track Mode since 2006, and nothing but deepness on this slice of vinyl. V2 forces the boundaries of tech and house as it builds to climax, atmospheric bliss with this! Space is simply rhythmatic integration, beats and chords, driving bass, get ready to move. The lost is very reminiscing of the early 90's groove with a millennium twist, bouncing bass melodic chords, call and response vocals, end result classic

The Hacker - Shockwave pays homage to the spirit of 90`s rave / nu beat / R&S and dutch techno and brings it right up to date to 2012.
Shockwave has the demonic stabs of T99 - Anasthasia and the energy of Human Resource - Dominator with the familiar energy flash call to the masses of `ecstacy, ecstacy`.

Mark Henning is back! Back on Cityfox! A classic acapella and Markís distinctive sound collide, result-
ing in a huge tune, sounding old school and fresh at the same time. Not just the vocals are telling a
story here, the synths and bassline add their part to complete the track. The second original 'Trojan' is
the secret weapon and club bomb, the dark side of the release, because too much sunshine is never
healthy ... Afrilounge take it a step deeper in their mixes. The 'Back2Basic' mix features the dynamic
they are famous for, the ëFM Dope Mixí (digital only!) and its big string melody sounds as clean as and
sparkles like the sunrise itself. The ë1998 Edití incorperates the rhythms and vibes of classic House
and Techno from the era when it all began. Thick, groovy basslines and pulsing pads laid out over
infectious percussion make this track an instant classic.

"Hypercolour's Losing Suki sublabel continues to impress in 2012, with Last Magpie's EP arguably even stronger than Jack Dixon's effort from earlier in the year. A quick scouring of the interweb turns up precious little about the producer's background, but a Soundcloud page reveals that he/she is "into making lot's sic of music and not sticking to anything that drag's [sic] me into a genre. If I like it I'll steal it!!!" If genre-sidestepping is one of the principal aims, a damn good job they've done too.

With more than a touch of bump & flex about it, "No More Stories" may be significantly darker in tone than its garage-dwelling cousins from the turn of the century, but it certainly follows a similar route. From the Game Boy-ish bleeps to the squeaky, lovelorn vocal, it superbly conveys a real sense of nostalgia, enhanced and made all the more emotional by a huge, rumbling bass drop straight out of the 2-step glory days.

Things get progressively housier but no less interesting over the course of the next three tracks. "U See" is enthusiastically bouncy and fast-paced with a crunchy lead line and loopy vocals, still maintaining a vague whiff of the 2-step flaunt but within a definite 4/4 structure. "Get You Thinkin" is dreamily waifish; a beautiful but indistinct stream of delicate elements, held down by a powerful sub. Wrapping things up is "Leeds Syndrome." Firm drums and a distant male vocal are all you have for company until some dubby, echoed stabs momentarily shed light on the increasingly dark path ahead."

Hailing from Leipzig, Germany, Tanzmann has long been a steady outlet for deep and club-ready tech house.
For over a decade he's delivered his sound through a few different channels: his own productions, the records he
releases on his labels (Moon Harbour and Cargo Edition) and his DJ sets around the world.

Some Sense Into You It's impossible to sum up a career of DJ Sneak in few words, so we'll try with just couple of terms that might serve as a brief introduction to the world of the one of the scene's most vibrant DJs and producers: in 1992 DJ Sneak began recording music. He released some of house music defining tracks on Defiant, Henry Street Music, Relief, Cajual, 83 West, Downtown 161, Strictly Rhythm, Classic (...) to name a few. 20 years later he is still one of hardest working producers around, one of the most in demand DJ's, and as always a full time 'House Gangster". This summer he is responsible for a hard-hitting 4 track - EP which will be his debut on Desolat. Enjoy!
