chiwax welcomes daniela la luz! we ve had already the honour to present this outstanding lady on rawax & housewax. now it s time for some acid house on chiwax. come into my land is a very promising ep including 4 club tracks with the remarkeble touch of daniela.

do yourself a favour and dance across the floor when listening to the new jacob korn-record, aptly titled son of gx. the music is heavily based on the good old yamaha electone organ. the home organ for the world s gentlemen was modified by jacob himself and is now an integral part of his studio. as you ll hear it on the ep, it injects a decent dose of fun into jacob s vision of house music. at least, you will instantly notice that when listening to singlefinger chord, a track that conquers the floor with its disco elements. rumours say that jacob s cat toddled on his poor man s yamaha cs80 when producing cats on organs. if that s true, the cat provided an irresistible hook to an already slamming, italo-inspired track. son of gx is every bit as compelling as the first two tracks with its synth trumpet glory while the slighty darker fun blocks sustains us with heavy percussion works straight out of the yamaha electone organ. on top, you ll get a remix for singlefinger chord by new york s jacques renault (let s play house) as digital bonus.

eclectic avenue welcomes the inimitable lil mark, one of the true stalwarts of the uk house scene & regular contributor to some of the finest imprints worldwide. here mark expertly shows his unique knack for genre-straddling. kicking off with pulling strings more familiar lil mark territory, with his trademark tight-as-hell percussion & firing bass sat below a freaked-out twisting riff. seriously, this bad-boy takes no prisoners....other than the ones on the dancefloor.... on the flipside we are treated to memoirs, a beautifully sumptous lo-slung roller, utilising a vox refrain over the top of a glorious rolling bass groove. like being comforted by a welcoming acid-bass-hug, this is truly something special. nestled inbetween marks original cuts is e.a.r. main-man j.cub, who offers up an alternate interpretation of memoirsl. taking the vox refrain & weaving it throughout the track like an instrument, j.cub nudges the tempo up slightly & adds a solid percussive backdrop & a reworked bass groove, creating a cut which is deep enough to warm the crowd but packs a solid punch at the same time

limited fxhe release !!

so after the elusive triumph of our first release finally came firmly into our grasp, we at sequencias here in new york thought it was time to take things in a parallel direction without retracing our steps. drafting three top names in underground deep house for a label debut is no mean feat, but how do you follow up on a surprise coup like that? we thought it was time to go even deeper, and we couldnt think of a better way of doing that than getting an experienced player to unveil a new alias for our second offering. things being as they are, weare trying to keep it a bit low here, but what we can let you know is that his discography stretches back to 2005 and that he has appeared on the illustrious bunker records. this should give you a good idea of what to expect: deeper-than-deep, dirty, and gritty house that jacks with the best the movement has to offer. we have to say that orpheus firmly delivers here, and we hope you will be as pleased as we are with the three dark and introspective offerings he unveils for his new project here at sequencias.

cfcf has swooned many with his heart breaking acoustic arrangements and mallet saturated arpeggios. it s about time the grammy nominated artist returns to the dance floor with self service.

a harmless deed release number 8 brings the third installement from epiphany, a record we are really excited about. from the ever evolving and soul infused acid of -let the boy be- where everything sits over a deep and rhythmic chord progression, to the noisy deepness and jam feel of -player-, or the weirdly addictive groove of -on the run- where snares and pads find their way over a jazzy melody, -last gasp- proves itself to be epiphany s strongest release to date, a record that radiates energy and futurism.

2013 marks the introduction of a new imprint in music: touch of class records. the labels founders, pillowtalk member michael tello along side ray zuniga, pay homage to their fathers business continuing the family name and artistic principle. originally from los angeles, the label mates migrated north, to san francisco. toc records puts a new west coast label on the map aspiring to exhibit the distinctive deep-house, indie dance and raw-techno textures that embody both hometowns.

the a side >feel my tears< is a warehouse burner on many levels. perfect for those summer evenings of drug loneliness.
b1 >courting< is a big room post-post-dustep uk garage-house stomper with a very loud snare drum.
the last track on the record how we do is a strange jazz techno house hybrid, taken from the early years album and now available on vinyl due to popular demand.

the debut release of swedish artist combo (he is half of s.u.m.o. which is well known as jazzy house artist in the beginning of 2000). probably some people know his excellent edit of robert hood >minus<. the title track of a side is modern beatdown house with the emotional piano loop sound. if you like the release of the revenge or mark e, you will like this song. b1 is an old school house version of the title track and >uptown< on b2 is early new york house sound.
