MK / The 7th Plain – The MKappella / Lost [XDSR002]
Second release in the Delsin X-DSR series containing re-issues of personal favourites.. MK’s The MKappella was originally a track on the b-side of the very original version of his huge Burning EP on the Area 10 label. The MKappella is some original innocent deep sunset house. Other side contains the adventurous ‘Lost’ by The 7th Plain aka Luke Slater, taken from his debut album ‘The 4 Cornered Room” way back from 1994, the high days of the UK Techno scene, with lot of hints towards the original Detroit sound.

VA – Disco In Distress Part 1 [AO13]
Amplified is back with the excellent Disco In Distress Pt 1, displaying some of the finest deep disco and house around. The first track on this EP ‘Yellow’ is nothing but wondrous house with Amplified premiering producer Lay-Far from Moscow, Russia. Lump (also known as Arttu) comes with the excellent disco stomper ‘Down With You’. On the flip you find Sygaire and Co. debuting on Amplified as Muddeg. Their ‘Luv No Guarantee’ is a stunning vocal house bomb. Last but not least disco tweaker extraordinaire Nicholas comes with the amazing slow disco burner ‘Wind City.’

Prof Delacroix – Build Her Remixes [DBRV010]
As the Deepblak Ten year Anniversary continues, it’s time to revisit Prof. Delacroix’s deep classic “Build Her”. Beautiful classic deep house tracks with a rawer edge wich takes away the over kill on artificial sweetnes. Comes with Afrikan Science, Fred P and Aybee remixes.
Nicholas – Free To Be [4LUX1105]
The second single from his forthcoming flux album, Still Playing House, is a beast. “Free To Be” is a house-submerged affair, as low-slung as they come and in a classic Murk vibe. Berliner Hunee delivers a spot on remix on the title track and brings it into deeper territory. He is transforming the original mix into something fuller, warmer and almost epic. “Down To Nothing” is another slow pumping house nugget. With its soothing and soaring synths, ebb-and-flow arrangement, inviting melody and vocals, this is another bomb fitting every house set. Things get even slower with “Why Don’t You”. A great house tune with a sensuous vibe.
Simon Weiss – Yesterday Is Around [HOMETAPING011]
Simon Weiss’ debut solo release on the Hometaping imprint called “Yesterday Is Around”. There is an undeniable warmth to the expertly looped strings and delicate vocal sample that will turn many an ear, whilst the rhythms and textures are delightfully fuzzy. Alongside it Weiss flexes his percussive muscle on the expertly poised beatdown of “Bird Movement” which is notable for some excellent pitch shifted melodics, whilst “Body Signature” is delightfully sloppy.
Rio Padice – The Return Of The Luchador [TSUBALTD005]
New Tsuba Limited release from Rio Padice with ‘The Return Of The Luchador’. The Luchador story continues with 4 more tracks of timeless, raw and melodic house music all made with machines.
Marvin Dash – Workshop 14 [WORKSHOP014]
Marvin Dash aka Ronald Reuter lays down three authentically deep and heavy grooves for Workshop. A-side is suave, mid-tempo nod to Detroit Beatdown inspirations with that effortless sense of German finesse and soul control. Flipside there’s a disco-looping killer, before finishing on a weirder, left-field boogie-House number.
Efdemin – Chicago Remixes 2 [DIAL061]
The second edition of Efdemin’s Chicago series, featuring four remixes by Deadbeat, Fred P, Rndm and Efdemin himself.

This EP features on A Side the wonderfull “Warriors dance” (chicago’s jackin heaven’s not so far we guess), “Tropical vibe” that’s got this kind of disco feeling without sounding (thx god) nu-disco & to end “Hey detroit” that speaks for itself . On the B side, we have 2 remixes, one from Ron Trent & another atmospheric & deep as hell one from Chez Damier’s morning after mix part II.
