2019 Repress - First recorded in 1983 under the name Visual, Boyd Jarvis s cut The Music Got Me is one of the first true house records. A staple on the 80s New York club scene, the visionary instrumental dub was played everywhere from the Paradise Garage to Zanzibar, dance-floors packing to it s mix of throbbing bass and wooshes of analogue synth magic. At Ransom Note we ve long been obsessed with the record, so when House Hunting s Aiden D Araujo interviewed Boyd - and found out that we could license it - we jumped at the chance. Now, we present The Music Got You sounding bigger and better than ever before. Remastered from Boyd s original tapes by Keith Tenniswood at Curved Studios, The Music Got Me is pressed on limited edition, heavyweight vinyl for clarity and bass pressure. Complimenting the original release come 2 completely new mixes the first is a dubbed out masterpiece from edit-king Nick the Record alongside Dan Tyler of the Idjut Boys. Between them they take the essence of Jarvis s original and tease it out into a cavernous disco killer. Next up comes Bawrut man behind Ransom Notes debut release, the nu-acid anthem Ciquita. Bawrut does what he does best, throwing in Latin percussion, layers of screwball 303 burbles, and a sense of joy, all whilst keeping Boyd s original bass groove rolling.
