The first release from Housewas Limited is comming from HVL. Deep US-inspired underground house.
Red 7 – The Spacejunk EP [HOUSEWAX009]
Stefan Blomeier – Unexpected Journey [LXRC013]
Lux Rec once again explores the underground of analog possibilities. Stefan Blomeier is a extraordinary musician playing mostly live and recording on tape cassette, not having a plan but letting the music find a way out in itself. So these three tracks came out.
DJ TLR – Above The Clouds It Never Rains
Acid Arab – BIS Radio Show #683
Leisureware – Chiffon Mix
Sabre – WT 19 [WT019]
Sabre is a duo from Lisbon, Portugal. Coming from a more experimental and noise background, the 2 men stumbled onto something that works on the dancefloor, linear steady rhythms and off kilter melodies that make you feel like this is some kind of secret freaky hit that might even crosser over to the Balearic Islands or Cosmic Discoteques.
Blackboxx – Black Boxx # 3 – 3 [FPR038]
Titlewise not to be confused with Ferris Park 37. 4 warm house tracks from unknown producer – comes with a Damien Zala remix (Rowtag).
Sisterhood – Call Me Ishmael [TIEF001]
Tief is well know in London and beyond as being a clubnight where it resides at Corsica Studios, showcasing house and techno of only the highest quality, a standard that is now to be transferred to a record label Tief Music releasing music that we truly love from artists who have a connection with us or what we do. Tief001 comes from two close friends of Tief who are releasing music for the first time under the guise ‘Sisterhood’. The 2 original tracks capture the atmospheres, moods and energy that fits so well with Tief’s ethos and demonstrates a real skill for using analogue instruments to hair-raising effect. On remix duties we find Arttu and Juju & Jordash.
Boo Williams – Pleasant Dream EP [CCE008]
Yss – Descend EP (Traxx Remix) [UBR002]
The sound of YSS, is gravitating towards old school Detroit, working harmonies as well as stabby chords, with classic 909 programing keeping the stems on a short leash. On the A side is a remix by the Chicago based producer Melvin Oliphant III aka Traxx.
Neville Watson – Songs To Elevate Remixes [CR1266]
Hot on the heels of the release of Neville Watson’s Songs to Elevate Pure Hearts album, Creme Organization releases a three track EP of remixes from the longplayer. The first is by Watson’s frequent collaborator, Bulgarian producer and live specialist KiNK. He tackles ‘Songs To Elevate Pure Hearts’ and laces it up with some lazy old rave breakbeats and plenty of lucid synth and melody pattern before Marquis Hawkes takes on ‘Against The Tide’. He imbues it with what is fast become a trademark sonic weirdness, with wrought iron synth bars interlocking with molten synth lines and a slow, purposeful and predatory mood. Finally, American Moon B turns in a trippy outsider house version of ‘Son Of House’ with off kilter claps, see-sawing synths and organic drums.
Esa – Serenity in a Forbidden Place EP [BUREK006]
Drummer, producer and DJ, Esa Williams aka Mervin Granger has been a resident at Glasgow’s Sub Club for over half a decade, as well as releasing as Mervin Granger and Esa. Esa’s 12” on Burek spans the emotions upon returning to his native South Africa and the trials of becoming acquainted with his new home of Glasgow. Alongside Esa’s original cuts we also have a superb remix from Edinburgh’s Fudge Fingas. The remix encapsulates both of the original tracks and adds FF’s own distinctive slant to them to finish an EP that we are most proud to present.
The Rhythm Odyssey – State Of Space EP [CHIWAX009]
Snuff Crew presents Snuffo – Missing You (All The Time) EP [BUREK005]
For its fifth offering, Croatia’s Burek label presents the first ever solo EP by Snuffo, one half of the Snuff Crew duo and the A&R mind behind Snuff Trax. Comes with a Juju & Jordash remix!
Ugly Drums – Saturn Memories [QUINTESSE034]
It’s from the man with a great feeling for raw beats and deep sounds! Its from the man who pretends to be ugly, but we all know: ugly is beautiful! Its the debut album of Ugly Drums called Saturn Memories. Eight tracks of pure deep raw bliss with a slight TP feel feat. collaborations with Lady Blacktronika and a remix of Pablo Valentino.
Italojohnson – Italojohnson 7 [ITJ007]
ItaloJohnson are hitting you up with the seventh ITJ installment and as you might have guessed, they present you once more with three tracks on a fine piece of waxxx.
ERB – The Weekend [RHRSS009]
The official reissue of ERB, a collaboration between Braxton Holmes and Ron Trent on Clubhouse Records from Chicago. ’92 style deepness – when things really started to get musical again. Soulful and jazzy vocal, and one for the house heads.
DJ Duke presents Freedom – Closer [LT1A003]
This is the first of two 12s containing one of our absolute favourite tracks from prolific producer Ken Duke aka DJ Duke. Closer was orginally released back in 1994 on Dukes Power Music Records and the amazing Klubb Kidz mixes quickly found its way into many DJs record bags, including label boss Mad Mats who rates the Flava Dub as one of his favourite deep house cuts of all time. If u ever heard Mats spinning a house set chances are big youve heard this mix blasted loud! First up for remixes duties this time is Mark Seven, Parkway/Parkwest label owner, a true DJs DJ, a passionate music lover and record collector extrodinare. The So Close Mix of Closer is deep house at its finest, an homage to the classic Prescription sound keeping it ultimately atmospheric. The Stalker mix continues on the same vibe yet develops into something more meaty and pumping during its course. Together with the original Klubb Kidz Flava Dub and the Mark Seven mixes this release got everything a true deep house head needs.
