at the end of the 90s a few friends united by love for music used to meet in an underground place dubbed last drop where they collected vinyl sharing music. our music comes from our souls and for us the music is the universal language of any hearts. last drop records born from the need of spread our concept to make music connecting with the universe ... music is connection.

lets play house is kicking the new year off with its own times square ball drop: francis inferno orchestras three-track solo ep, hezbolla. the wonky, off-kilter, eccentric package manages to be two disparate and often contradictory things at once: a guaranteed chaotic, debaucherous barn-burner and a deep, heady epic journey

back to throw you right off balance, the ever enigmatic joe returns to hemlock with two highly spirited but deceptively strong sonic cocktails. we will drink to that. punters step out: muddle 1 part dub techno with 2 parts drunken hammond and shake hard with some driving dancehall. serve with a smile // club scared: smash a volatile vocal into a high-proof riddim and drop on an unsuspecting floor. please dance responsibly.

londons kodiak arrive at hot haus recs hq with their first release of 2013. since releasing one of 2012s most hyped releases spreo superbus (on numbers) kodiak have returned to uttus hot haus recs with dragon drop, an epic slice of neo-rnb futurism, a no hold barred chicago house slammer egyptian kings, plus a bonus remix from eliphino who also had one of 2012s breakthrough tracks with more than me.

drop that records is the continuation of the concept label b.l.a.t.t. . it is more striped down in his appearance and even more focused on the dancefloor. the sound will move between reduced & dubbed out house & techno music. on each release you will find some forgotten specials a vinyl record could entail. drop that_001 features 2 tracks by mint 4000 and a live jam by sevenmint, a long term livepa collaboration between seven (rg25) & mint 4000. music can say more then words, so listen and enjoy.

after first meeting stef smith aka lakosa at a birmingham warehouse rave back in 2010, the 2nd drop camp have been keeping an eye on this burgeoning talent, especially as he has popped music out on kerri chandlers madtech imprint among others. co-producer rick grant is 1/3 of take records and with releases on george fitzgeralds manmakemusic label, another key talent making moves this year. and despite having never met each other (they communicate via email and bass frequencies), it seems that when they collaborate the magic happens.

a refreshing deep house tune, upholding the basics of the genre, yet enhancing them and experimenting in various ways, a rare sight for younger artists. sweet bass line, nice non-tiring kicks, ambient sounds and low vocals sounding like subliminal rites, producing a sensual result that should satisfy the demanding deep house listener. remarkable rise and drop of intensity during different parts of the track, mid voices spanning across a few measures to enrich the different parts, and many other little touches, make the track sound refreshing even after many hearings.

** vinyl only release !!**
leif steps up to sudden drop with a powerful 4 tracker. effervescent keeps the beats deep and dubbed out but with a real sense of pace to work the dancefloor. snowfall works as a counterpoint. a beatless lush soundscape with glorious warm pads and echod vocals. snowfall roughs things up with tough drums and percussion whilst nde is a pure slice of melody infused house bliss

next up on local talk we got a raw peak hour jam from liverpool producer dale howard (lost my dog, large, morris/audio, off rec). there is nothing light or fluffy about these tracks, its just dirty straight up house music with a dark 90s basement feel. for the main track we actually chose the dub version of throwback over of the original mix. we just thought this version was soooo freakin raw even though its more stripped than the original version. you’ll see what we mean when you drop it in the club! the second track in out goes along the same house theories as throwback with jackin beats and deep chords that will do wonders in any authentic house basement. all in all, a might fine release of classic local talk house music. enjoy!

theres a feeling... a sense of urgency in the air... things are going wrong and some things have never been right

new sublevel of deep thought !!

ilario alicante might well be best known for his previous releases on big room labels cocoon and cecille but preconceptions can be misleading. here on sudden drop we plough a deeper furrow, not ones for hands up in the air shenanigans we prefer to get our heads down on the dancefloor for some serious introspection, which is why this 3 tracker from the italian born ilario finds its way onto our label. echotechno is indeed a main room slice of stomping techno but with that oh so important moody vibe that we crave here at sd,rouge dub on the flip delves deeper with an exceedingly trippy soundscape whilst untitled drop rounds things off with a spritely techno groove.

public image ltd confirm their first new material in 20 years will begin with the ep >one drop< released for record store. followed by the album >this is pil< on may 28th, the new material will be released on the bands own label pil official.

lisbons gala drop have been paving the way in recent years towards an aggregative, universionalist stance on the existentially groovy as a crucial vessel towards enlightenment and understanding amongst the human race. their music is an extremely transparent ongoing constellation of achievements, which transpires an enormous love of music as salvation, a progressive & deeply miscigenated conglomerate of obsessive empathy.

sometime you cant keep a good remix down, and we certainly felt that with these two beastly versions by two very exciting producers of bass music.

reso returns with the ishimura ep and further showcases production excellence. resos unique brand of hi-tech dubstep and sinister electronics are exquisitely presented across tracks >ishimura< and >vanquish<. the package is completed with remixes from dnb aficionados evol intent and trouble and bass drop the lime. vinyl comes with a free download code to redeem inside at civilmusic.com

there are a number of producers who are known for being prolific, roska, cooly g, benga to name a few, and now gerry read can be added to that list. the cambridgeshire producer has only a handful of actual releases to his name, but a vault of hundreds. we can well imagine his hardrive straining from the sheer velocity of ideas that he sends our way. raw, urgent and frequently off kilter, gerrys production challenges your ears but always manages to lock in the groove.

bleaks 2nd release on sudden drop and another ep of streamlined sleek techno. >landscape< pulses along with a notably sense of warmth permeating through the otherwise stark groover. >fall< break up the pace nicely, incorporated more of a broken beat rhythm and a notched up level of intensity. expect big things from this artist with rumoured eps to appear on big labels in the near future..
