Rich, thick, dreamy, hazy house music, full of atmosphere from Liverpool artist Petals In Sound and Dirt Crew Recordings.
Apparel is launching a pretty cool seven inch series with two plates released in June and August respectively with a flared-out disco/funk sound by the mysterious Apparel Wax.
There was a point about four hours ago when I had no idea who Naux was. I’ve been deep in a rabbit hole with the French producer’s catalog and it’s a very weird place to be.
Fantastically dope, dirty and elegant by turns, the space-minded cosmonauts of Culture Power 45 present us with The Degabah System, an “interstellar” trio with their debut album Saqqara.
Space-jazz-funk for the dance floor as cohort of incredible remixers give a new spin to Cody Currie’s 2022 album track Money on Toy Tonics.
At 1:05 you should be prepared to get happy. Hustlin’ All Day by Portuguese producer Bernardo Mota gets positively joyful at that moment as this lovely little track erupts with bigger-than-Def Mix piano chords going up like fireworks.
First Cut welcomes TR One, Giles Armstrong and Reflection Port Assembly on shiny black wax on Crossing The Red Line.
Levon Vincent has a clear affinity here for the record, which presaged a darker, more physical turn for analog-driven techno and deep house. Vincent is a fellow traveler and his work on these remixes is nothing short of stunning.
With the onset of summer comes the big, feel good tunes and Seamus Haji and Michael Gray provide you all of that warm goodness with Wish out on Defected’s Big Love sublabel
It may be cheapening the art and coarsening the discourse when all we have to say about a record is mf, this is dope but mf, this is dope. When it comes to her public discography, Roberta has not missed.
Mainstream Disco Funk gathers together twelve disco/funk tracks from between ’74 and ’76, a particularly fertile moment in history as funk and soul artists, producers and musicians either adopted or adapted the disco innovations of labels like Philadelphia International Records. Most of the tunes contained here are located right in that disco-funk / funky-disco sweet […]
Close your eyes and you’re there again: standing amid the broken toilets and dimebags on the tiles at whatever club was the hot place in 1996 but which you had a vague suspicion was no longer quite so hot in 1997. Mike Stewart, the producer behind We’re Gettin’ Hot, engineered a track that seemed to […]
Sweat Equity’s Daniel Creahan dons a mask as Alien D on an EP of rust belt techno tracks from Fixed Rhythms.
Nachtbraker’s tracks are often a subtle hybrid of elements of deep house and classic Detroit techno with echoes of 90s Dutch house, all filtered through a highly detailed sound design process. So it is here with four tracks of futurist hybrid 4/4 on Capichone.
Another beautiful anonymous slab of wax from artists unknown to us just waiting to slip into your crate and intimidate all your other records with its fierceness. I don’t know who made Apoji, I don’t know who pressed it, I don’t know who Paris Acid City is but they made a killer debut on Freesome […]
Three weekend-long events for the Berlin event will follow a ten track compilation from some of the friends, family & honored guests from the label out June 23. AWAY 10 YEARS features single tracks from Moodymann, Eluize, Move D, Axel Boman, AWAY Soundsystem, Lady Starlight, Inland, Mark Broom, Discrete Circuit and Attila & Blivv. The […]
Another 12 inch deep house record that’s all about the groove and how to cook with it from Chicago’s Snad.
Jazz funk outfit Pleasure’s classic 1977 album Joyous has been re-released, giving us an excuse to revisit an old favourite. If you’re not familiar, it’s a funk-soul album with a heavy jazz flavour (it was produced by The Jazz Crusaders’ Wayne Henderson), so you get eight tracks of intricate arrangements, nimble guitar riffs and fluid […]
Fred P “reshapes” this four track deep house groover on Mike Grant’s legendary Moods & Grooves label.
