only unreleased new tracks from dj deeon and slugo....though he s revered among chicago djs and around the world as the original master of ghetto dance music, deeon started small, on chicagos south side. he sold his dj mixtapes in the parking lot where he lived, and played house parties in the projects. these crowded living room parties started the feeling and inspiration for the sound deeon produced, music he simply refers to as, >for the strippers, for the street<. while tracks like >accelerate< on dance mania were doing well overseas, he was getting little support or play from local chicago clubs. deeon calls ghetto house the >stepchild of chicago house<. eventually the incredible response from his music forced the clubs to concede and play his records. these >techno with a ghetto edge< tracks have found way to the decks in clubs around the world. deeon found his home on chicagos own dance mania label, where he released hits like >let me bang<, >who you wit<, >da dick suck< and >the freaks<. deeon is currently signed to databass records, which is rereleasing most of his back catalog with new remixes!

and again florian presents his way of doing things. >my way< is carried by a strong, mysteriously melodic sample filled with tons of reverb, the track really explodes when his strong and fidgety loops meet a high-pitched whistle sound. listen for yourself: this is a thumping minimal electro monster! on the flip >live your dream< is a lot dreamier, hence the name, a softly rolling sample says hello to an effect-laden subbass that is sure to make the dancefloor vibrate

alexi delano und jesper dahlbaeck kommen nach >quarter of a century< mit ihrem nachfolger album >chronicles of the urban dwellers< daher und zelebrieren ihre soundevolution

the third enliven music release is based on minimal techno and contains propelling sequences and nicely rolling basslines. the raum and opossum artist >sweetn.candy< added a remix and round down this debut of >phony pinch<. there is a further youngster of elm doing a remix of operator, called >peedge<, the studio and live partner of phony pinch

this is the 4th release with man-to-man on q-records . the title >chord of love< says a lot of the track. it is a very nice melodic chord that is looped-up and gives you an extremely nice melody to catch. the original mix is a funky, house-ey slamming mix and is already in the loop with djs like bryan cox. tim track, know from his work on abyss and sway is doing a more futuristic session on his remix, best described as techno meets tech-house. on the full b-side, and there is a reason for that, you will find the pierre j remix

first remix features rick preston and dtc doing a deep house rework. the infectious groove is set off with crisp percussion, bubbly washes, electric guitar riff and chopped up vocaleffected into heady subliminal hooks. sunny guitar sols, warm chord progressions and timely effects round out the cut. trademarqs approach on their mix is a bit left of cente as they twist and mangle the original. they stretch and deform a few key parts into a truly unique cut. a cutting edge sound with shuffling and jacking beats leading into some massive sub bass and a haunting sustained synth line.chopped up vocals and dubbed out playful piano complete the sound

bugz in the attic release the second single from the inspired debut album back in the dog house,a live favourite and deftly handled cover of yarborough and peoples 1980 bassline heavy dont stop the music. bugz, pioneers of deep and dirty dance music, brought a brimming confidence along with the experimentation of their debut, which glistens with stone cold funk, boogie and disco but remains resolutely contemporary thanks to their immersion in club culture and the broad pool of guest vocal talents at their disposal. for dont stop the music former basement jaxx collaborator sharlene hector was given the task of re doing a bugz favourite, and the result is an out and out west london bruk up twist that takes the basslines from p funk, the soul of the original and a certain pirate radio grit and delivers the very essence of bugz.

after his releases in treibstoff or pulsewith with swat squad, alecs marta arrives in regular now doing duo with jaumetic, who come back in his own label, after his releases for labels like galaktika, discos de lata or deep explorer..

this 12 kicks off with jam 2 tha mother,a track that has been doing the rounds for a while as a westpark unit track apparently. its a fairly nice hiphouse bumper.its all about miles though. the looped piano sample works wonderfully well with the straight deep disco beats. and while the original is good, the soulphiction remix is the icing on the cake. they give it a certain industrial/techy edge, and make the sample stand out even better. add to that some dope detroit beatdown bass licks and beats, and you ve got yourself a catchy tune

automatic is a new direction fusing electro, funk, and two-step. the first of a fresh batch of music producedin the new wagon repair studios. focus on the dancefloor. beach party - a summer track for the early morning open air festivals. inspired by the idea of doing the side-step with a bass guitar at a rock concert with long hair and tight pants. oh yeah, and there are big fans blowing my hair around !!dj support : anja schneider (mobilee rec.): >thx is nice and hot<, funk d void - lars sandberg, karotte, troy pierce (minus, underline)

the a side is the creepier of the two and the revamp, also done by konrad, this time under his rockit moniker (gee, this travelling wagonbury knows how to play hide & seek) comes with a dirtier, more in your face bassline. now , as we did our fair share of doing the write up its your turn to do the maximum playout folks, on & on please as this is our new definite favourite on the young label. sick!!!! richie, ricardo and ata all played it the same night (new kids on acid-berlin) àtiefschwarz, ivan smagghe opened their set with it at fabric last saturday

'the talk' is zoo brazil's first ep for dessous. the title track kicks off with some dry dub influenced beats before some beautiful keys and a warm bass come in. percussive elements and nice strings complete a deep and cosy track. next on is 'rush', a thrilling track with nervous acidic multi-layered synth attacks and punching beats.

four tracks made by label boss, chris duckenfield in various locations (and states of repair) whilst on the road, doing that thing that djs do nowadays. a portable feast of beats then, inspired by the previous nights gig, or just the mindnumbinly long flights around our little planet. 21st century uk house music at its best

solaphonics behind solaphonics are the german djs/producers jca and jerome isma-ae.

an unreleased classic from the vaults emerges with beautiful reshapes by cv313 (recorded and reshaped from 2007-2016) this is where the sound of cv313 was realized, culled from cassette tapes recorded live (1995-2000) with nothing but analog/digital hardware, no computer in sight (excluding our commodore 64 midi sequencer, which is still alive and well today). the radius project has been absent since the final release in 2001, the first 12- appearing in 1996 (limited white label run of 100 copies pressed at acme pressing in canada) after revisiting these works we realized there was truly some magic here. this project was initially sent to rod modell & mike schommer shortly after they launched their brilliant deepchord label in 2001. they were incredibly kind in saying it was the best demo they had ever heard and passed it on to octal records for release, sadly, that didn t materialize and since then these masters have been collecting dust in our cassette rack for nearly 20 years now. we ve spent months doing our best to restore the old tapes from our tascam 688, an 8 track cassette recorder purchased and abused since 1992 and to our ears still sounds quite impressive even by modern standards. (that is of course, if you can get past the tape hiss) we ve had nearly every component replaced and re-calibrated to bring this obsolete machine back to life, it s been a truly nostalgic experience re-visiting these masters.
