Death Drive is a peak-time electronic club track that features Eddie Peake, Prem Sahib and George Henry Longly (Anal House Meltdown) on both production and vocals, and co-produced by long time collaborator Tim Goalen; inspired by and invoking the heady dance floors of their Anal House Meltdown parties, the pounding excitement of long nights at Berghain, the legendary Berlin club, and intense but fleeting romantic trysts facilitated by clubs and parties. Resident Berghain DJ and producer Fiedel has created a remix that will also feature on the release.

Moufang / Czamanski – Live in Seattle [FUR050]

In May 2013 at a nondescript Seattle space called 1927 Events, two-thirds of Magic Mountain High—Germany’s David Moufang (aka Move D) and the Netherlands’ Jordan Czamanski of Juju & Jordash—teamed up for a live performance that made everyone in the room feel privileged to have witnessed it. It was the kind of set during which you say to yourself, “I hope to hell somebody’s recording this.” Thankfully, somebody was doing just that, and the 99-minute Live In Seattle is the sterling result.

Magnetic Soul – Summer Love [DHND002]

Essential 4 track EP of deep disco and summer soul, boogie house and steady groovin funk edits. All tracks are given Magnetic Souls expert disco dub treatment focusing on grooves, added presence and beefed up bottom end for a solid dance floor feel. The A side enters the spacious tropical House vibes of Summer Love and the delightful slow building soul strings and vocal of Universal Love. The B side hits first with some low slung, raw funk grooves with added brass stabs and leaves us on psychedelic soul funk, la Gil Scott of Cold Outside.

Ike Release – Watercolors EP [EPISODES007]

The return of the Windy City’s Ike Release to the tougher than solid Episodes label. Mr.Ike Velez makes his appearance heard quickly and loudly from the first bass drum of “Apollo3”, an all-out dancefloor winner with a distinctive US edge, sci-fi sonics and gorgeous hardware tweaks. “Guzzle” is more soulful and chord-heavy, while “Socialite” takes a dusty drum programme and chucks it over a deep house vibe, and title track “Watercolours” wins the beauty show thanks to its pounding beat and majestic waves of synths.

Tuff City Kids – Underground House Research Vol. 2 [POTION003]

This is Potion number three. The Tuff City Kids have spent some time in the lab and created four fine potions to ease our ailments. Like memories of a Nexus 6, these tracks are machine made but feel organic, familiar and timeless. Programmed to make us dance, they reach straight for our brain’s motion centre. “Carden Eden” has been included in Prosumer’s fabric mix and we are proud to finally present it on vinyl, together with three brand new companions as “Underground House Research Vol. 2″. Philipp Lauer and Gerd Janson have built an excellent reputation for the Tuff City Kids moniker in the three years they are releasing together. And if you got this far into reading this, you surely know already what absolute legends they are.

Amir Alexander – Sonic Subversion EP [PBR043]

Amir Alexander returns to New York’s Plan B Recordings with three dusty house trax. “Channeling” kicks things off with a sullen, funky bassline and intricate swings of percussion backed by distant piano keys, whereas “Deep Banger”, as the title suggests, is more of a straight-up house jerker, and “Nocturnal” fuzzes things out with its growling bassline and eerie background atmospherics.

Phrased – Star Maker [LBP004]

Neither L.B. Produce or mysterious production outfit Phrased give much away, aside from a few hints at their love of old music-making hardware. That trait comes to the fore on this third Phrased 12″. Musically, it’s pleasingly varied, moving from the fluctuating acid lines, Detroit electro swing and sci-fi electronics of “Star Making”, to the hypnotic, becalmed, ambient dub flex of closer “Morello”. Along the way, they also find time to squeeze in a dash of ultra-deep IDM (the blissful “Diatom”), and an impressive excursion into classic, dubby deep house territory (“What’s Good For You”).

Hieroglyphic Being & The Truth Theory Trio – Keep Your Mind Open [BDN007]

The Bedouin imprint continues on with its quest for the sublime and exotic in modern techno and house music. Jamal Moss aka Hieroglyphic Being & The Truth Theory Trio delivers more of his signature dusty lo fi electronics but gets an industrial tinged stomp on with “Keep Your Mind Open” and it’s absolutely killer. On the flip is “That Is The Name Of The African God” which is an analogue jam that sounds more like the Hieroglyphic Being we know.

Dj Steaw – Everydayz EP [TU003]

Contemporary deep house with the bumping grooves of classic Jersey garage. Tapping up the talents of French producer DJ Steaw, the EP is dominated by “Everydayz”, combining an ultra-crisp percussive arrangement with resonant bass, hands in the air keys and breathy vocals, as tight a dancefloor house construction as you’re likely to hear in the near future. On the flip, the producer provides the “Deep mix” of the same track, inverting the mood with its cloak of midnight vibes, soundtracking the club rather than the terrace. The real gem however is “Morning Light” mixing up the formula with its driving bassline and richly filtered atmospherics.
