HotMix Records for his third release presents “Magic Of Human EP” written and produced by mysterious Kurt Baggaley ! This EP contains five tracks reminiscent of the glorious productions on NuGroove Records , with melodies and shade that bring to mind the Tangerine Dream and Vangelis.
Pariter, the deep techno sublabel of Sushitech Records, presents the new release by Makam. The EP features two deep and trippy cuts.
On The Prowl appears to be on a roll with it’s new found artists. The A1 track “More Heart” is big, catchy, and totally feel good house vibes with disco styled horn flourishes. The A side inside cut “Basement 6D22” takes us near Kerri Chandler with delayed brassy chord stabbing and long organ pads. Flipping the record over reveals a stunning slo mo disco house workout, filled with jam style organ riffs and amazing synth horn parts. For B2 we get a Perscription style deep house track with all the right dark drifting chords.
Marin Iliuta presents his second cut under the moniker of “Ultimate Man”. This project will be focused purely house 80’s & 90’s sound with little touches of NYC, Chicago & Detroit flavors.
New label by Jus-Ed and Jenifa Mayanja. Their first records as couple. Jen’s track is a real stunner here with deep intens strings and hypnotic beats. Ed is doing a track that reminds of a rave track with a hit that sounds like an early UR cut on top of a basic drum machine pattern and crazy vocal samples. Slowly building and not taking the pressure off.
Two producers on duty for Gerd’s Palm Leaves remixes. Sometimes an amazing track like Palm Leaves just screams for a rework by someone who really could do something nice with it. And this seems to be the perfect remix duo… Larry Heard aka Mr Fingers and Deetron. One for the body and one for the soul!
Various Artists release from Italy’s Locura Records, featuring tracks by WIFi Soul & Ennio Colaci, Snuff Crew, Meschi, Rio Padice and unknown.
Creme Organization presents the new work of Brooklyn’s new house prodigy Willy Burns, who has been honing his craft under various guises for the better part of a decade. Willie take here a more agressive approach towards more commercial territory.
Plan B Recordings presents Hakim Murphy’s latest 4 track EP of Acid, Deep House and Ambient tunes that signifies samples from his inner music self. Listen to Murphy’s unconscious moments rising to the top of himself, straight from the underground for the underground.
Andy Vaz’s Straight Vacationing, his first full-length artist album since 2006, registers as less a straight-up collection of dance-floor burners and more of a variety pack that mixes club tracks and full-fledged house songs. Listeners hungry for just ordinary 4/4 throw-downs will not entirely get their share of those, but they’ll also get a whole lot more on this dynamic and well-rounded set of eight album tracks and that is exploring House Music not just as a simple one way street, but give you a very personal view of the music we call House. Straight Vacationing dives into the genre in all it’s rich variety: From deep melodic, early Chicago influenced Acid House, Jacking-Jedi Mind Tricks to Disco-type grooves and last but not least excursions into Bizzaro World, with a vaz typical almost psychedelic experimental-edged Sound, it’s all there.
