fresh out of melbournes reputed house scene, the tortoise is one of the hottest talents to emerge from the current wave of house breaking down under. a side the puffing tortoise captures the 21-year-olds precocious talent and aims it squarely at the peak time. working his trademark airy vocals around a familiar disco refrain and bubbling bass, he works the track into a sweaty climax and skilfully keeps it there throughout the midsection. turning in a late night chugger on their remix, berlin based canadians the mole and hreno ride an insistent pulse and insect like percussion. twisting the samples, they guide the track into a dark jungle of chattering sounds to temper the tortoise youthful exuberance. the analogue melancholy of keep on keepin on is all in the sweeping synths and twinkling effects. recoiling the tension, the chicago influenced track seeps through the speakers and will sound as good at home as it will during specially chosen dancefloor moments. rondenion approaches the title track with fearless disregard for the original, combining the swelling tortoise sound with something entirely his own. his addition of a funk fuelled midsection, really breaks the track down and adds another slice of character to an ep already brimming with it.

coming off the heels of the kitano ep, we decided to keep things right in the bustling metropolis of deepness known as melbourne, australia for our next undertones release. after successful outings on both 3rd strike and dirt crew, it just made perfect sense for us to join musical forces with the tortoise. tortoise laces us with two vocally charged joints that set the tone just right. we couldn t think of a better way to put our spin on this release than to feature the extremely talented duo known as genius of time on not one but two remixes .. one for each track! it s definitely a first for us and we couldn t be anymore pleased with how everything shook out.

50 releases in six years! to celebrate this fact we release this special compilation with a great diversity of styles, ranging from disco to deep house and tech house. all tracks made exclusively for this album. this is the vinyl edition with 3 of the best tracks taken from the 15 track album. as we have always been pushing new young talent on dirt crew we also take this compilation to introduce to you some very exciting guys to look out for, first up is plan d aqua from holland with an amazing deep disco monster and second new face is the tortoise from melbourne with his deep disco/ house sound. he recently put out his first record on the fantastic 3rd stike records. we are also very proud to have our favorite producer and friend on the compilation with an exclusive track. mr. iron curtis has released awesome tracks in the last year on various labels and with >brthrs< again proves to be one of gemanys most promising young deep house artists.

australian newcomer delivers a bumper ep for londons 3rd strike. the lead track is a driving deep looped disco house in the vein of soundstream or the mole. gaining support from mark e and the revenge to name a few. lovin you keeps the pace high, again utilizing subtle disco samples with a rigid house backbone and hand in the air keys. hunee is on remix duties and keeps the quality as high as his acclaimed releases. merging a moody bass synth with jittering drums and stuttering keys.

voodoocuts kicks off the a-side with kelja , a raw 70s afro-funk bomb from the ivory coast. the american-funk inspired tune features a funky bassline & killer organ vibe, mingled with a dirty, raw saxophone line and james brown influenced vocals. voodoocuts rework turns the track into a serious dancefloor banger! in the tortoise loop voodoocuts blends an infectious groove with pounding drum breaks and hypnotic vocals. a hot afro-latin joint not to be missed! on the flip soulbrigada takes things to a disco tip. hustleman is a stunning afrofunk & disco gem from west africa. the second track madera is an afro-disco gem with a compelling cape verdean groove. soulbrigada rearranged the tracks, added drums, samples and effects building a brigde between past and present - without ever losing its original organic vibe. two essential tunes for your record bag!

melbourne deepcast return with a killer various artist ep featuring some of their mates. another superb ep from down under.

mit candie hank produzierten sie so etwas wie desert-polka, hymnischen hip hop hingegen mit modeselektor und den puppetmastaz. wir hšren mitrei§enden neo postrock in kooperation mit tortoise oder laetitia sadier, radiotaugliches songwriting mit eric d. clark, gebrochenen funk in kooperation mit den eigens wiedervereinigten funkstšrung und einen astreinen r&b-ohrwurm mit den junior boys. so ist 21 again eine ode an die freude und freunde der band und gleichzeitig ein manifest des stŠndigen dialogs, eine feier der vielschichtigkeit.

ben ufo betreibt mit david kennedy (pearson sound) und kevin mcauley (pangaea) das bassmusik-label hessle audio und liefert mit seinem fabric-set eine eklektische mixtur aus allen subgenres aktueller bassmusik & dubstep und klassischem house und techno, in der so unterschiedliche artists wie tim love lee, shackleton, k-hand, pearson sound, herbert und mr. fingers aufeinander folgen.
