Anthony Naples – Moscato EP [MSN003]
Second release from Anthony Naples on Mister Saturday Night Records and this one is a beast of a techno track. On his second 12″ he brings two mixes of this tune with the A-side holding down a sweet deep house mix while the flip bangs out a relentless techno mix.
Hinode / Marieu – Punch In the Face [ENW003]
Enlightened Wax returns with a fistful of kick drums to the face and a whole load of crunchiness to boot. Marieu makes a return to his own label alongside Berlin’s rising analogue fiend, Hinode who makes himself heard right from the start of A1, submerging us into a shuffling, funked-out frenzy of samples and ruthless percussion. The A2 is another brutal monster, where bursting toms, cascading synths and analogue rawness align to form an irresistible peak-time burner; but it’s on the B1 that things turn really nasty – some seriously off-kilter percussion moulds seamlessly with gorgeous strings only to fall back apart into a winding bundle of slicing drums. Not much can be said about the B4, it’s just a classic “MG” (Marieu-Groove) bomb: dusty drums, shredded vocal samples and those jagged piano keys grinding their way into that seductive Enlightened Wax vibe.

Jacob Stoy – Redenswart EP [UV12]
Jacob Stoy and his very first solo EP for Uncanny Valley. Everything starts with Redensart, a sunny piece of music with a sneaky bassline and easy synth pads that come across like a warm rain shower.. Hauswart is an impressive example of how one can create a whole atmosphere of sound within two minutes. Start is maybe the most conventional Deep House track on the EP and seduces with catchy synth chords and thrilling drums. Finally Gegenwart brings things to a jazzy end with tipsy synths and tripping percussions.

John Daly – Pandora [1TRACK008]
John Daly dropping a monster track on his own 1track Records. Moving away from the previous deeper and chicago rooted tracks on the label he drops a massive peak time house track with massive chords and a pulsating sub baseline. Flipside has a more stripped and dubby Pandora Box remix.
VA – DJ Muscle: No Posers [WT014]
WT Records makes another turn. This time aiming back at the dj. A beautiful and functional 3 part vinyl dj series: DJ Muscle.. No posers. 3 records with 3 catalog numbers. Each part has a full color jacket & label art by Marion Guillet. The series starts with slow mo freaked out Pink Floyd makes dance music from Serbia and moves on to space disco, freaked out emotional outsider house, and all the way back to wild African influenced electro dance beat. Hand picked by label head and music lover, Dj Speculator aka Willie Burns, the 3 part series will be a solid addition to any djs record bag and good enough to satisfy the collector as well.

Sir Stephen – House Of Regalia [SILK032LP]
Nawlin Dahlin Sir Stephen creates a time-trippin’, style-hoppin’ virtual reality fantasy zone with his new LP House Of Regalia. 8 flava profiles to drop on yr tongue – from the Brand New Heavies-inspired, NDea-diva vocals by Fleur de Lis on One x One, to the cooltempo/rare groove take on New Order, Dance For Life, to the Underworld-weary born-and-raised slippy ripper Get Wet. HOR is a lux layer cake of sister-soul mantras (I ll be pushin on!), acid jazz latte lounge breaks, jackin-the-Black Box piano house holds, thrown shades, fashion plates, and dizzy dancefloor dee-lites. This is music for dancers, pure n sample.
Soundstream – Julie’s Theme [SOUNDSTREAM006]
Two discoid house cuts by Soundstream on his own label. On “Julie’s Theme”, there’s some unabashed delay rippling going on, but still that ever-loving disco groove sits underneath in the bassline on the one and the natural hand claps. On the flip, the disco is thoroughly loud and proud, with “Inferno” resplendent in searing Philly strings and slinky bass that was built for grooving.
