Spirit Catcher – Missing Danger Mix (November 2009)
Steven Tang – Emphasis Mix (12-2-09)
DJ Qu – Party People Clap [DEC003]
Killer house track with a raw edge. Levon Vincent beats the original with his remix that has a steady dirty house groove with fat claps and layers of sounds. Monotone groove but with a lot of tension.. another club hit for Levon!. Anthony Parasole and Fred P deliver a technoish version and Jus Ed doing a light mix compared to the others with more housier vibes. Stand out release!!
Jason Fine – Future Thought [KM012]
Jason Fine with his debut album on the sweet Kontra Musik. Mr Fine known for his releases on FXHE (Omar S his label) comes with a great hybrid between some sort of Dance Mania Chicago house (bass lines and drum programming) and Detroit techno (including the intense and overwhelming layers of strings) and stirs things together to his own unique blend of techno music.

The Revenge – Forever In Their Debt [HT001]
Home Taping Is Killing Music is a fresh new imprint that is all about a return to House Music. Producer of the moment The Revenge (Instruments of Rapture/Jisco Music) kicks things off for the label in fine style with the stunning >Forever In Their Debt<. A homage to the House producers that have influenced them and the artists whose samples have continued to drive House music forward Expertly channeling the spirit of early Chicago warehouse music, but with a modern production twist that truly captures that classic sound, but packs enough punch to wipe the floor with most of its peers. On the flip, maverick producer and DJ Red Rack em (Tirk/Untracked/Deep Freeze) takes the track on a road trip to Detroit, and produces a deep, moody and atmospheric version which brings to mind the work of Pepe Bradock and Theo Parrish. Two sides, two flavours. Both 100% House.
Mike Dehnert – Lautschrift [CBS03]
After succesful releases on Fachwerk and the MASSIVE first release on the Clone Basement series, the time has come for another essential 12″ release by Mike Dehnert. “Lautschrift” is – to put it mildly – a wolf in sheep clothes. A sub-zero techno belter complete with vocoded voice, soft bleepy sounds and a deep bass… Properly stands out!! On the flip “Regelschrift” and “Nano” are two heavy techno tracks of the ‘neuer-berliner techno schulle’ .
DJ Hell and Joel Alter – The New Megachurch Of Gigolo Megamix [sss061]
Ilija Rudman – Night People [IOR004]
Prolific Croatian, Ilija Rudman steps up to bat for the 4th instalment in the Instruments Of Rapture series. Night People is a faithful nod to those early extended house versions that we all cherish so much. All vintage drum sounds, dubbed out vocals and classic warehouse piano. Remixes come from The Revenge who gets deep and dubby for his spaced out Midnight Mix and 6th Borough Project who get heavy on the rinse for their tracked out, jacked up Love Rub.
Lerosa – Night Radio EP [UZURI008]
Lerosa makes a welcome return to Uzuri Recordings. Night Radio EP is Lerosa’s most dancefloor friendly release to date including Metaphor (feat on the Much Later EP) revisited by non other than NYC legend Elbee Bad, laying down a vocal and some funky Brooklyn vibes to the proceedings.
