outplay mainstays fouk & junktion continue to hone their craft, shedding the extraneous & chiselling out the raw forms. direct, lean and ready for the floor.

from the outplay camp comes their new sublabel 24 carrot! its for the other tracks the bits that dont necessarily fit in on a regular outplay ep. whether it be edits, loose pumping house tracks, or just straight up weird stuff. whatever takes our fancy. 24 carrot 1 is a collection of tracks from outplays own junktion and fouk. on the a-side junktion comes at you with the search, an uplifting piano vocal disco tune which will be sure to make those feet move! the flipside is fouks turf. thats pretty vague amps it up as a groovy bass line house track, broken with toughened up synths. the tongue in cheek vocals lighten the mood, while staying pretty vague. what the ... is he talking about? paahdy says it all, straight up house with nods to chicago, perfect for a paahdy.

long awaited 2016 repress! a collection of four deep, warm and fuzzy house tracks by outplay co-owners daniel leseman and junktion. while both daniel leseman and junktion are showcasing their individual talent on the release, their new collaborative project fouk sees the light of day for the first time! influenced by the soulful house sounds of old chicago and detroit, this vinyl debut from outplay shows you what they re all about.

when he s not busy in the studio or touring the world with his running mate hans (junktion) as fouk.. daniel leseman takes time for his own solo projects and we re pleased to be able to release two vintage daniel leseman groovers on a piece of 10inch vinyl for the 7th stop in our kolour ltd 10inch series.

2016 repress, without artwork cover
take daniel lesemans signature swing and loose arrangements, add a touch of junktions knack for jazzy chords and sampling, and you get fouk.

slow town records has really picked up the pace this year, delivering essential 12- singles from riccio and qx-i, amongst others. here, they round of 2014 with an ep of positively edible deep house from fouk man hans peeman. in typical peeman fashion, there s plenty of soul to the liquid beats and rich chords of -prologue-, while -monologue- is an attractive saunter through classic detroit deep house with the restless energy of a chicago production. mr k-s remixes the title track, delivering a heavily percussive version that sounds like a plea to head towards the dancefloor, pronto. a touch darker and altogether heavier, it offers an excellent alternative to peeman s eyes-wide-shut original.

kian t, a self-confessed analogue synth addict, steps up for the 6th secret reels release and with an ep on big bait already under his belt and one forthcoming on toy tonics, 2016 is looking like a vintage year for this italian producer. this ep is all about tough beats, warm & punchy synth lines and a few dusty vinyl samples thrown in for good measure. kian s production values are always on point, and these 3 tracks are no exception, instantly standing out from the crowd. on remix duties is man of the moment daniel leseman. his solo productions and remixes are firm favourites with a vast swathe of top djs. he is also one half of fouk, alongside junktion, who have absolutely taken over recently with releases on heist, razor-n-tape, house of disco and not to mention their own label outplay. daniel turns the tough syncopated beats of flughafen into a shimmering, funk-laden piece of house.
