Tazz – Underground 07 [TSUBALTD0026]
The second Tsuba Limited 12″ comes from Underground Quality artist Tazz and it’s two tracks of raw and, as the title suggests, underground house cuts at its best.
Ike – Supernatural [PHP051]
The new IKE experience delivers three pieces of pure rawness again. Some claustrophobic soul, a reminiscence of the airwave-godfather himself and a jackin’ tool prove the projects variety once again.
Franklin de Costa – Queen of Mars EP [RES001]
The first release from the NYC label ReSolute is coming from Franklin de Costa. ‘Queen of Mars’ is a gleaming slice of timeless techno soul, its tough, throbbing rhythm overlaid with shimmering, Detroit-tinged chords! Dario Zenker is on remix duties.
Lerosa – A House Expression
Rick Wilhite – Live at Jack Cafe, Yokohama 30.01.2011
MD – It Ain’t What It Used To Be [X]
Mysterious released, no information about the label or the producer. Melodic retro acid house/techno, classic early 90s sounding Detroit stuff. “It Ain’t What It Ain’t” powers along on a snapping 808 drum track with a bubbling 303 bassline, big washy strings and jazzy synth solo. Flipside cut “Megapolitan Soul” is a sublime piece of beatdown house that oozes soul. a gospel / soul vocal, hand claps and Detroit house pads and efx make this an absolute blinder for me.
Marcelus – Ep 2 [DRH034]
Marcelus returns to Deeply Rooted House with a exciting twelve inch ‘Ep. 2’! Rawer stompin tracks that never fail to capture that essential funking groove that make the difference between a standard techno track and a track that stands out!

Cosmin TRG – A Universal Crush [RHDC08]
Affectionate house grooves ranging from deep to high energy upbeat on this double 12″ from the Romanian Cosmic TRG. As he moves away from his dubstep/funky roots, he heads more towards 4-floor techno and house. Yet, he keeps his crisp drum programming and sharp synth lines, which makes his productions sound fresh and gives them a future feel.

DJ soFa is running Lamadameaveclechien, an independent label that aims to release good and eclectic music on physical formats (vinyl and CD). The label is releasing mostly experimental stuff from friends and artists that share the same musical vision.
DJ soFa will visit Bucharest and Sibiu at the beginning of April, so listen carefully this podcast to get a glance of what you will experience during these two parties.
Portable – Let’s Go EP [KARAT042]
Portable strikes back on Karat 8 years after his first appearance on the label. “Inside your mind” is a build up track with a proper vocal describing different levels of consciousness, and about the way of living your inner thoughts. “The Ghetto Escapes” is a floor burner, acid stomper track that never stops to push up the pressure.
