For those that don’t know, Bluetrain was a sub label of the legendary Mosaic and was a true classic label from the 90’s where Steve released quality dub techno and house along with some fantastic collaborations with the likes of Ben Sims and Lee Grainge. The pack includes 10 Tracks in total. 2 Remastered versions, 4 exclusive mixes/edits and 4 new and unreleased tracks from Steve.

A long-overdue reappraisal of Steve O’ Sullivan’s efforts as a producer is underway with this bumper release from Sushitech. Collating the myriad aliases of the Mosaic boss and drawing on some on his co-conspirators such as Mark Ambrose and Jorge Zamacona, this triple vinyl beast of a package is overflowing with high-grade house music powered with the attitude of techno. There’s a classic feel to all the tracks here as they carry the torch for Basic Channel and the original dub techno ethos, but attaching the spacious, mysterious tones to a funkier template. That possibly oversimplifies the majestic quality to this breed of techno, but then of course the devil is in the details.

A special collection of all the limited records released over the years on Sushitech inside a solid carton box designed by Kerry Roper. The box include 5 x 10INCH clear marbled records with some new and exclusive mixes! Tracks by Franco Cangelli, Leonel Castillo, Anonym, Delano Smith, Norm Talley, Mike Huckaby.

Next on Sushitech is a solid double pack with 6 amazing tracks, modern effective club tunes by dutchman Makam.

Sushitech presents the new Delano Smith album, An Odyssey. Delano shows us the musical world he is living in today. Taking all of his experiences from the past years, all the various styles of records he has played and all of the inspiration that has soaked into his soul from playing in major clubs and cities around the globe, the album comes together as a single entity and represents the sound of Delano Smith and his work with Sushitech. The album sound is deep, lush and dry just as you would expect from a true Detroit legend. Moving all the way from Deep House to Techno, Delano and Sushitech have collected his best works during the last 2 years and compiled an album of new tracks and unreleased rare mixes.

Another very sought after limited Sushitech 12″. “Baseline 87″ is exactly what the title is named a rolling Baseline loop that would certainly move any dance floor. Talking of dance floors “Music For The Dancefloor” certainly does what it says on the tin. A modern Detroit Techno track with lots of energy with Huckaby’s signature keys that certainly move you.

Pariter, the deep techno sublabel of Sushitech Records, presents the new release by Makam. The EP features two deep and trippy cuts.

Sushitech presents the first part of the Makam Reconstruction serie, with three remixes from MRSK, Delano Smith and XDB.

Delano Smith was suitably impressive on the recent ‘Dark Shades Of Detroit’ EP. He’s just bettered that with the ‘Light Shades Of Detroit’ EP on Sushitech’s sister Purple offshoot… Three tracks of heads-down, quality deep & dark house music from Delano.

‘Dark Shades Of Detroit’ is the new release on Sushitech by Detroit house master Delano Smith.

Kenny Larkin, Chez Damier & Delano Smith remixing the last Sushitech label compilation! Larkin dropping an exciting techno track with soul and Delano is being the deep house warrior he is.

Guy Blanken aka Makam delivers a nice collection of modern house tracks spread on a 3×12” full length. The album is comprised of almost entirely new material. Makam has shown a strong propensity for classic-rooted house grooves these past two years, which will no doubt carry over to this debut full-length.

Old classic from Talley gets re-released with two solid remixes from Delano Smith & XDB. For house music lovers, Sushitech & its sister label Pariter are on it with timely re-issues and new remixes!

Nice cuts by two uptempo tracks by these two friends. Delano Smith goes for a slightly deeper introvert cut that builds and grooves and that has a nice athmospheric feel to it. Norm Talley goes for a jazzier approach and a nice steady almost 2 step beat that keeps going.
