Third part of four in the Imbroglios series.

Ben Christensen is a multi dimensional figure in Detroit's musical landscape. For years Christensen has played with a number of acts and has collaborated with many different artists in the city from a variety of different musical backgrounds. "Inouno" is Christensen's debut 12" on his newly found imprint Sector 7G. "Inouno" is 7 minute house groover that nods to the classic house sound of the 90s, while keeping it modern, soulful and funky!! Definitely a new producer to watch out for!

repressed! CLASSIC!

No 19 revisit the recently released, critically acclaimed Tone of Arc album 'The Time Was Right' for the next EP. Disco king Prins Thomas and Southern Fried duo Luca remix C & Brigante remix two key tracks fro the album to fantastic effect.
First up we have Prins Thomas, known the world over as one of disco's foremost innovators, he is boss at the Internajsonal label and has his own singular sound that takes its cues from prog rock and kraut as much as disco past and present. Here he reworks 'Goodbye Horses' into an even more lovelorn, dubbed out and slow burning disco licker than was the original. Laced up with a cosmic 80s vibe, innocent melodic stabs and his usual celestial synthesisers, it's a mature and patient track that rewards your close inspection on every level.

Deservingly hyped Italian duo Luca C & Brigante then offer two remixes of 'Love Kissed'. Mouse With No House Mix goes first and strips back the poised and purposeful, low slung and sun kissed funk of the original into a deep and space house jam rich with glowing harmonic melodies and a slowly churning bottom end. A perfect set builder that teases with acid as much as it rewards with its inviting chords.

The duo's second remix of the same track is even more heavyweight and heads down as you'd expect of something called a Warehouse Dub. The duo allows plenty of space around their arrangement for the deepness to really sink in. Their finely balanced, groove inducing claps and hits churn along at an oh-so appealing pace that manages to both sexy and serious. This is a finely thought out remix packages that breathes new life and fresh angles into Tone of Arc's still standout originals and will likely see them rolled out plenty more times this summer.

Joey Negro is the most well-known pseudonym of master British producer, remixer, DJ and label owner Dave Lee. With his production career beginning in 1988, Dave is intrinsically linked to the birth of house music in the UK. Famously recording under a variety different aliases including Akabu, Doug Willis, The Sunburst Band, Jakatta, Raven Maize, Sessomatto and Z Factor he has created a truly exceptional back-catalogue accounting for many of house music's highlights over a career spanning three decades.

Disco has always played its part in Lee's music: he was one of the first British artists to incorporate disco samples into the various house music styles with which he is so recognisably identified. Indeed, as a genuine aficionado of disco he has few equals anywhere in the world. He's as productive as ever either in the studio or behind the decks today and most recently under his Joey Negro alias, Lee was integral to the success of Defected's brand new Glitterbox residency in Ibiza this summer.

From the live disco and boogie of The Sunburst Band to the unique funk-fuelled grooves of Joey Negro, House Masters Joey Negro is Dave's personal curation of the greatest records from a catalogue that spans every corner of house music.













[bB] CD 2-2 | Wishing You Were Here (Joey Negro Extended Mix) - Blaze

[bE] CD 2-5 | Direct Me (Joey Negro Disco Blend Mix) - The Reese Project

Apparently made by, for and with DJs in mind, 2 Bitches From Queens present tracks for your personal runway or Junior Vasquez' dance floor in '92. Featuring four bass-heavy, vocal-friendly, percussion-happy and vogue-valid tracks that could have been produced yesterday for today - and probably were. Warehouse find, vinyl only.

Roisin Murphy delivers a solo sonic bomb for Crosstown Rebels.

'Jealousy' is recorded especially for Crosstown Rebels and additional to Roisin's forthcoming album. This is an unashamed slice of dance-floor hedonism from the acclaimed singer, featuring Roisin's compelling vocals in both a house and disco workout.

Co-written and produced by the great-unsung modern day house hero, The Crooked Man AKA DJ Parrot, formally of Sweet Exorcist (Warp) and All Seeing I amongst many other aliases, he has been a bastion of the Sheffield sound since the late '80's. The single is also mixed by the legendary Eric Kupper, who was a production partner with Frankie Knuckles and Dave Morales and whose K-Scope releases were a staple of 90's American NY House.

"Parrot understands dancing music and he understands me. This is fast and furious; he says it's roller-disco music. The backing track sounded so frantic, the lyric wasn't long coming to me, all I had to do was try to create a vocal as demented as the music!" Roisin Murphy

Murphy has become one of the most competent, enduring and influential figures in the pop, disco and electronic music worlds. The Irish singer-songwriter originally broke into the charts as the front woman for Moloko, delivering music that was leftfield electronic and pop-orientated. Her consequent output, two stunning solo albums, and the beautiful EP with The Vinyl Factory alongside guest vocal presence on labels like Hot Creations and Permanent Vacation have ensured Roisin's enduring legacy and constant evolution as an artist.

In Munich the sun always shines. Even at night. This Pastamusik LTD is the living proof for that. The sonic power even increased after a DEMO arrived in here by Orient Expense. A Demo by a young talented man carrying the seldom name KAAN DUZARAT. Of course, after listening to his tunes we had to unpack shorts and skirts since the heat started to become unbearable. Finally we concluded that heat in winter is a good thing so we gave the release an earlier release date. Kaan is different he's slow without losing himself into the general discovery of slowness. His tracks sound like they were produced at 40C heat without losing the focus on Techno as its main goal. Rare and beautiful worlds got openend to tbe listeners ears. At his hometown, the young man is responsible for the bookings of Istanbuls Nightclubs Otto and MiniMuzikhall and he also runs his own new label named 'Vesveseve' from which we believe will hear a lot more in the future.The B-Side is a reshape (what an un-German word) by THE ANALOG ROLAND ORCHESTRA in it's unique stylish way and shows us how a Turkish Bazar would work in Munich.
The PAMLTD010 comes in a limited Vinyl Edition of 300 records. The first 100 in clear vinyl. On one hand we love playing around with the pressing plant and of course they should also become part of our Discogs retirement funding program. A Turkish-German Friendship as it should be. Welcome Kaan Duzarat our modest lodge may also be your home....

San Francisco/Paris-based label Spring Theory is back with its fourth release. Called Sweet Bitter Love, it's a four track EP of manic sample-driven house from Keita Sano, a Japanese producer who's been on a roll lately with releases for like-minded imprints Discos Capablanca, Mister Saturday Night, and Strictly Groove Recordings.

Sweet Bitter Love kicks off with the tripped-out flair of "Once I Found a Diamond." It's an uplifiting bongo-led cut with dubby melodics that sound like the kind of thing Sleeping Bag Records would have put out in the early '80s. Jacques Renault provides a leaner peak-time version — complete with hard-hitting snares and growling bass — via his "Once I Found a Diamond (Jacques Renault Trouble Funk Remix)."

Things take a turn for the delightfully weird on the EP's namesake "Sweet Bitter Love." Starting like a straightforward house cut, it explodes into a psychedelic collage of spaghetti western guitars, tribal calls, displaced jazz fills, and other forms of cleverly sampled soundtrack exotica. The release wraps up with yet another curveball on "Bouzouk." Here Sano lays out a subwoofer-knocking NY garage house rhythm that takes a left turn with frenzied bouzouki playing charting arpeggios through a haze of echoing foreign voices.

Taken as a whole, Sweet Bitter Love is that rare idiosyncratic bomb of an EP that will keep your dancers moving and your trainspotters guessing — In other words, it's Spring Theory through and through.

12records is here to introduce the 2nd album by Deep88, aka Alessandro Pasini.
This album is a collection of Removing Dust EP vol 1 +2 (available separately).
After some 12 inches released on vinyl only it felt right to collect some of the best songs released together with the brand new material and create an organic album, Supporting the album with a live setup (No laptop is involved).
Self made artist, up since 2004 with different projects, Deep88 decided to start his own label in 2011 in order to release his music with no care or attitude to trend or fashion sound, developing his own style, spacing house music from classic deep to extreme raw sample based, collecting historic music gears and hardware during the years and mixing them together with other new digital toys.
The result is an album where you can find some cheesy balearic songs together with some inner raw tracks, due to his eclectic attitude. It's all about the way he decides to create music, it can be either using just an old sampler and a turntable or using some analogue and digital synths and a computer or just mix these 2 points of view together.

PMR, The critically acclaimed London label home to Disclosure, Jessie Ware and Julio Bashmore today announces its brand new sub label. PMR Beat Club will serve to cherry pick fresh sounds by young music makers pushing things in new directions. No set genres. Just good music.

PMR Beat Club's first release is with 21 year old Polish wonder-kid Klaves, who has quickly become one of music's most exciting new talents.

With a background in classical music and a love of house, Klaves has had a rapid rise in the past 12 months, picking up huge support both online and in the club for his early productions. One pivotal moment came earlier in 2014 when he was asked to support the illustrious Nicolas Jaar on a string of huge dates around his homeland.

'People'/'Oh No' is a perfect example of the label's forward-thinking mission statement... combining complex chords, vocal samples and everything from saxophone lines to classical

Fresh from the release of their very first LP, here's an ultra rare repress coming from mid-nineties USA via one of the Paris finest new labels, Lazare Hoche Records. The bossman himself Lazare Hoche is an avid collector of rare house joints, and has a penchant for anything the truly epitomises the spirit of house music; raw, undiluted and full of funk. Unlike some collectors who never reveal their secrets, Lazare Hoche decided to share his knowledge of those hard-to-find tracks of the past with this new release, and so acquired the license for three tracks by the cult duo Nimbus Quartet grouping them all together in a special vinyl-only reissue. Nimbus Quartet was the short-lived partnership between Dave Stevens and acid legend Woody McBride. Between them they created gold dust, the kind of pure, unadulterated house music that sounds as fresh today as it did almost 20 years ago when it was first released. Although they only released two double 12inches on the legendary US based Sounds Records, those albums remain classics to this day. So it was only right that they be reissued for a whole new generation of house connoisseurs to enjoy. Strictly for the heads, we present the quirky "Later Lover", "Mouch Touch' with its classic guitar riff finish and the 12-minute masterpiece, "Your House Is Yours Part II&III". So enjoy, and party like it's 1995...

Hello - we're The Nuclear Family. We've had roots in Glasgow's electronic music scene for a while, and we've released music separately in the past, under a variety of names, but none of that is too important. For the past year or so, we've been shacked up in a tiny southside studio making house and techno that we hope will stand the test of time. Our first release is After Effects - a quartet of fresh yet classic productions crafted with love and care for the discerning listener. We've got plenty more where this came from, so keep an eye out for another promo email about our next release, which includes a killer remix from Moon B.'

Volume one of a two-volume twelve-inch set featuring tunes from Eamon Harkin and Justin Carter's mix CD, Weekends and Beginnings. This volume features a beatless ambient acid journey from Bass Clef, an obscure gem from Nebraska, and a long sought after Maurice Fulton remix of Alice Smith's "Love Endeavor." Maurice's remix is cut to a full side of vinyl at 45rpm, and both sides were mastered by the ever extraordinary Matt Colton. It sounds phenomenal!

Käse Kool's fifth release, the Friends n' No Ends Ep, is comprised of 5 Berlin-based producers, each of which brings his own unique sound to Ep. A1, Appearance, comes from the face behind Crude Wax, Vincenzo Maurice. This tune comes with a rough attitude of sheer analogue house. A2, Wismut, comes from the man with the plan, Nick Beringer. This track speaks for itself with its punchy bass-line and direct groove. B1, Visions, comes from a newly formed duo who goes by MODE7. This promising duo hits it home with their newest track Visions as its sweet and sultry pads play with the drive of bass and drums. Lastly B2, System is Wack, comes from a producer who goes by the name of Aurhythm (AKA Dennis Sekyere). This track speaks for itself, as being very rude with it's rough drive but still keeping its own delicate stems

A dream and a trip into de pure House music, subtle and dynamic born with this 001 of Discos Nutabe. From the Aburrá Valley, Colombia, perpetuating the essence of music in time with limited vinyl copies is their purpose.

For this first cut, we present the debut of DCM with his 'Orígenes', a record that has a very noble sentiment: the revival of classic House music which only causes movement, in body and soul.

The record that keeps on keeping on! To begin with it was only the FCL guys themselves and a few trusted friends who had a copy of this ferociously uplifting vocal record, but We Play House Recordings eventually released vinyl copies of the record late last year. Now signed to Defected and played, heard, sung and screamed everywhere from Berlin to Miami, this remix package from 2 of the most established names in House Music and one of the hottest guarantees that it's surely set to conquer the Mediterranean over the Summer months.

Get Live is Play It Down's latest from Prince Club, the Canadian duo from the Made To Play Stable. "On My" is a collaborative effort with LA-based Rick Rude and "Get Live.Doin' Shit" is where Prince Club goes off steady and solo. Nothing but pure, unadulterated real house music. Why don't you get live

Ames Henry is coming back with a multi-flavored EP. Raw and groovy as usual.

Kevin Saunderson's Detroit-based imprint celebrated its 25th Anniversary back in 2012, and the label's continued to cement its legacy with key vinyl reissues over the past couple of years. The recent campaign included Saunderson's Just Want Another Chance, the track which contains the "Reese" bassline—rivaled only by the Amen break as a formative element of drum & bass—as well as '90s releases from MK, Kreem (Saunderson's duo with Juan Atkins) and Chez (Damier) N (Ron) Trent.

The two remix compilations dwell on Chez N Trent versions produced during the 1993 through 1995 period, when they released enduring originals like "Morning Factory" and "The Choice." Volume One contains remixes of Sonya Blade and Miller/Scott Project while the second EP includes Damier and Trent's versions of Kreem as well as Saunderson's seminal vocal house group, Inner City. Chez N Trent's takes on Naomi Daniel's "Feel The Fire" and Essar'ay's "Forces" are also included.

A true child of the rave generation, DJ/producer Warlock's mixtapes and radio show, on the now legendary London pirate station Pulse FM, established his cult status as a stalwart of the early 90's UK dance scene. A true pioneer, in his time Warlock has spearheaded the country's embrace of many, newly emergent sounds. In the late 90's, Warlock released experimental techno on seminal labels Praxis and Spiral Tribe's Network 23, before a stint as A&R at Kickin Records, where he nurtured release's from techno Gods DJ Hell and Surgeon. In 2002, he launched his own label, Rag & Bone Records, providing a outlet for the emergent sounds of Electro, 2-step and Breakbeat, courtesy of Aaron Spectre, King Cannibal, Kanji Kinetic, Stagga, and of course Warlock himself. Recently voted in Fact Magazine as one of the most underrated DJ's, recent years have seen Warlock's sonic emissions surface on seminal labels Hypercolour, Fat Hop, Yellow Machines, Frijsfo Beats, Skint and We Buy Gold. He currently hosts a weekly show on London's finest Kool FM, which perfectly showcases his in-depth knowledge of historical dance music, alongside his thirst for new sounds.

Terrence Parker, a native of Detroit and a man who lives and breathes Detroit House Music, releases his third artist album on Planet-E - 'Life On The Back 9'.

"This album is about moving forward through hard times in life to see something beautiful on the other side of difficulties." - Terrence Parker

Detroit has been credited as one of the Soul Music capitals of the world, spawning legendaryartists like The Four Tops, Marvin Gaye and Diana Ross just to name a few. In the mid 1980s, Detroit's Underground Music Movement brought rise to artists such as Derrick May, Juan Atkins, Carl Craig, Kevin Saunderson, Blake Baxter, Eddie "Flashin" Fowlkes, UR, Jeff Mills, and a host of others. But unlike the aforesaid names, Terrence Parker has established himself as a producer, remixer and DJ of the classic sound of Detroit House Music, and is known as the pioneer of the music genre known as 'Inspirational House Music'!

As a DJ, Terrence Parker (known to many as 'TP') has become legendary for his quite uncommon yet skillful turntablism style of playing House Music. TP has also become widely admired because he uses an actual telephone handset as headphones; causing some to give him the nick-name, "Telephone Man'.

Since 1988, Parker has released more than 100 recordings on labels including Studio!K7 and Systematic and has had top 20 hits with his songs 'Love's Got Me High', 'The Question' and albums like 'Detroit After Dark'. A well-respected remixer, his remixes include releases on underground imprints Saved, D-Edge and artists including Kenny Dixon Jr., Wyclef feat Akon, Beyonce & Shakira, Kanye West, Christina Aguilera, Shaun Escoffery and more.

Direct from Detroit, 'Life On The Back 9' is inspirational house music down to its soul. From the energetic yet soulful opening track 'Finally' (Baby Be Mine), released on Planet-E in 2013, to the melodious, groovy basslines, piano riffs and high synths of 'Night Light', to the forward pushing, make you dance 'Saved Forever', to the bumpin' 'God He Is', to the funky tech instrumental 'Spiritual Warfare', to the grooved out melodic 'The Friend I Lost' to 'Hiding In Your Love' - all about getting lost in dancing to the music (dancing is a form of worship), to the pause and reflect 'Selah Interlude' to 'My Virtuous Woman' - inspired by a very special lady in Terrence's life, to the pumping 'Open Up Your Spirit' to the intensity of 'Pentecost' and finally the uplifting 'The Back 9' a song dedicated to Parker's father, who gave him inspiration when he needed it the most.

'The title of the album "Life On The Back 9" was inspired by something my father said to encourage me while I was down going through an extremely difficult period in my life. my father told about one of his golf games where the first 9 holes (also known as the "front 9") seemed to be the worst he had ever played. It was so bad he felt like packing his clubs and leaving the course. However my father paused, prayed, and decided to finish the game. As he began playing the last 9 holes of the course (also known as the "back 9"), he could see gradual improvement in his game as he advanced each hole. By the end of the game my father had done so well he won the entire match. My father then said to me, "Terrence if you think of your life as a game of golf, perhaps the front 9 did not go as you had liked. But don't give up because you still have the back 9.' - Terrence Parker

Previously unreleased material by Chicago's great Vincent Floyd! Early works, mastered from the original DAT tapes. Includes four exclusive tracks not included on the vinyl release.

Deetroit's 6th vinyl for Unkown Deetroit keeps it burning with 6 tracks of varied deep, dub, Brazilian, disco and sort of techno. Think a mixture of sounds being pushed by the likes of Carl Craig, Ron Trent, Francois K. There is something for anyone loving the raw sounds of the underground.

White Vinyl Pressing!

Following on from his latest and greatest LP, French underground house legend DJ W!ld is now releasing a selection of remixes from it. When You Feel Me Remixes 1 features two great originals and two remixes, one by fellow French luminary Chris Carrier, and the other by USA deep house and techno talent Jus Ed, both released on vinyl and digital.

DJ W!ld, of course, has released countless seminal EPs and LPs on his own labels W and Catwash as well as those like Robsoul. He has also been resident at Ibiza's leading club, DC10, and DJs around the world, and his last album was yet another great evolution in his sound. Here we get treated to two fresh pressings of top tracks from it.

First up is 'Au Bout Du Tunnel', a slo-mo house affair with classic electro cowbells, rubbery broken beats and tons of austere atmosphere. 'Humide' is then a bumpy ride through spaced out galaxies with lo-fi percussion and warm synth smears all making for deep, cerebral listening.

The first remix comes from Underground Quality label boss and singular New York soundsmith Jus Ed. His mix of 'Ac!d Mat!k' is typically stripped back and textured, with itchy hi hats running on top of a buried deep, sublime bassline. Full of gorgeous open spaces, it is a cavernous affair that really comes alive with some sombre piano chords and serene pads.

Then comes Chris Carrier, a Robsoul regular who is a veteran of many album projects. A true French star, Chris releases on Vitalki, Catwash and many other tastemaking labels. His rather cosmic take on 'End of My Summer' is a tough, barreling house affair with upright drums, muted bassline rhythms and a tick set groove that will keep people locked for days.
This fine remix packages not only reminds us about the great originals, but also breathes fresh life into two of them with help from two of the scene's most venerated stars.
