Bernard Badie – Bernards Got The Funk [MOJUBA020]
Bernard Badie returns to Mojuba for a special catalog number 020 with some pure class chicago house gem from his. His “Bernards Got The Funk” 12″ released way back in 1988 on his own imprint DJB Records as Jackin’ Bernard Badie features the tracks “Come To Me” and “My First Love” and is a visionary example for Bernards interpretation of chicago house music and a very valuable contribution to whole genre.
Ron Trent – Raw Footage [EB001CD]
The tone always makes the music. But only those who actually make the sound? An ancient-house-avantgarde dream has always been there since the legendary Warehouse days of Ron Hardy, to bring more sounds and tones constantly to an independent, repetitive development. And thus beyond the limits of an executive creative artist on the otherwise purely commercial sense what we call in common beyond imagination. “Raw Footage”, the latest album concoction of Chicago house legend Ron Trent on his new imprint Electric Blue works in the best sense of Stanislav Lem heroes Trurl & Klapauciusals, cruising like those two metal brains frantically invented by the universe of 4/4-Sounds to get insane tracks out of the new material matter located there, and put them together to brand new ones. This trackwerk varies as well as of course between classical Chi-Town to the context of contemporary, epic house dubs and lives in a perfidious manner from the interaction of various computer modules that constantly spits out new and exciting interactions.

Willie Burns – Another Place [SEQ004]
Willie Burns and Aroy Dee on remix duty. Sequencias is slowly building their profile with their outsider house, acid and chicago rooted tracks. “Another Place, Another Time” is an epic track and Willie Burns stepped over his shadow. Trippy and full of tension, slow building without taking the paved path. Aroy Dee is delivering a remix, more in the Chicago direction and adding dramatic strings.
Tevo Howard ft Rick Howard – House Room EP [RHYTHM005]
Sweet sweet vocal Chicago-house pureness by Tevo Howard featuring Rick ‘Poppa’ Howard on vocals, reminding of the early Beautiful Granville days. A highly emotional and intimate track which the label is honoured to have aboard. Label head Paul du Lac on remix duties delivers two stripped-to-the-bone jackin’ trax for devastating club abuse, one vocal version, one instrumental version.
DJ TLR – Slabs 171
“A live DJ set celebrating the inauguration of James Olsom II as club treasurer, performed at the Hawktree Golfclub, Bismarck North Dakota in the summer of 2012. Over 2,5 hours of intense pure raw rockin house in all its forms, with no attempts to smooth out the moments of pure unhinged madness that drove the bar insane and gave more than a few old hoochies feelings they never thought they would have again. Hey Gopher, just gimme me a paira dancing shoes, a paira ladies and a paira medics!”

Bantam Lions – One To One EP [SCN001]
Scenery is the new record label of Stu Robinson, and arrives with a stated focus on promoting talent from the UK’s north west. The debut release from the unheralded Bantam Lions is notable for pairing both original productions with remixes from John Heckle. Liverpool’s finest exponent of rough hewn analogue jack turns in a notably bewitching blend of exotic melodies and rugged drum programming for the remix of “Control Tower Observations”.
VA – Use Of Weapons 005 [UOW005]
Use of Weapons 5 lands noisily in your back yard with five house marauders hotter than Salma Hayek eating a hot apple pie. Five different artists bring the bacon: label heads Deep Space Orchestra remixing themselves, ex-Cosmic Boogie overlord Asok, Perseus Traxx, Other Worlds and Wet Play executive board member Ruf Dug.

The Parking Attendant – I’ve Heard It All Before [CR1260]
In a fit of tunnel vision Buckfast afficionado Marco Bernardi drives his hooptie off a cliff and slides underwater for a deep rolling mondo house trip that oozes sub bass and sneakiness in a weird paradox of uplift & despair, and doesn’t come up for air until Tevo Howard adds some sunday morning percussive tea-bag flavor to it. Meanwhile on the Ocean floor that absolutely venomous J.T.C. remix wipes out everything and anything it comes across.
Simoncino – International Smoke Signals [MATH066]
Simoncino returning to Mathematics, brings a solid release beginning with a spaced out soundscape & flows into “Dark Devotional Energies”, an eerie cut with killer drums like “The China Syndrome”. “Place Space This Galaxy” and “Easing The Cosmic Streets” take on the flip on this essential EP.
Roche – Auragan EP [MATH065]
Debut from Roche on the Mathematics label leads off with “Sans Quimico”, an amazing tune with elements of deep house and Detroit techno. “LFTL Eternal” starts the flip with an obscure bangin track with crisp hats and a bubbling bassline. The title cut ends the EP with a chilled out deep 5am feel.
