70er-jahre-perlen aus dem archiv des britischen marktführers für produktionsmusik.
diese doppel-lp aus dem hause bbe ist in erster linie für djs und beataffine produzenten gedacht. doch auch freunde eigentümlich-spezieller und wundervoll-mysteriöser sounds dürften ihre freude an dem vinyl haben. der sampler wurde von den beiden versierten kompilationsspezialisten mr thing und chris read zusammengestellt. er enthält eine außergewöhnliche sammlung von 23 library-stücken, die aus dem gigantischen archiv von cavendish music stammen. das 1937 als boosey & hawkes recorded music library gegründete unternehmen ist marktführer für produktionsmusik in großbritannien und weltweit mit dependenzen vertreten. mr thing und chris read erhielten erstmals 2014 im rahmen eines sampleprojekts zugang zum cavendish-archiv. bei ihren grabungen entdeckten die beiden eine sammlung mit aufnahmen aus den 1970er-jahren, die bis heute nichts von ihrer frische und originalität verloren haben. die schönsten perlen daraus finden sich auf -the library archive- wieder. sie reichen von tagträumerischen scores im stile lalo schifrins bis zu atmosphärischen proto-hip-hop-instrumentals.

james -j dilla / jay dee- yancey leaves behind an impression on hip hop that will last the test of time. a bridge between hip hop’s underground and mainstream, dilla’s contributions ranged from single handedly defining detroit hip hop as a founding member of slum village to providing his production talents to common, d’angelo, busta rhymes, erykah badu, a tribe called quest, the pharcyde, the roots, janet jackson and macy gray.

bbe is proud to present jigmastas grassroots (the prologue deluxe edition), lovingly re- mastered in full, expanded form, along with added bonus material & rare b sides. the deluxe double vinyl edition is housed in a gatefold sleeve.

prägnante stimmakrobatik mit retro-charme, gewürzt durch schwergewichtige gastauftritte.

phat grooving instrumentals by jay dee aka j dila!

bbe records have teamed up with dj/producer mr thing, to dig deep into his extensive collection to compile a series of albums of rare and sought after breaks. this series reflects brilliantly on his dedication to digging for those untouched and unrivalled samples and breaks as you hear him use in his dj sets. as a dj, mr thing never fails to engage the crowd with his winning combination of hip hop and funk breaks spiced up with his legendary mixing and scratching skills. the first installment in the five part strange breaks & things series contains superb songs, some you ve probably never heard of, some which may make you go: i recognize this sample! because it was once used as the backdrop for a classic hip hop track. if you liked the legendary strange games compilation series on bbe compiled by the likes of kenny dope & dj spinna, you ll love strange breaks & things.

deephouse sound on all day i dream

rogue d is the new solo project from danny minchella. under this new moniker he delivers the eagerly awaited chains. set to be one of the biggest tracks of the year, its a high octane, club-ready number with abundant driving percussion. unstoppable force patrick topping is also back on home ground for the remix. chains was inspired by jamie 3:26s and cratebug’s edit of loretta holloway hit n quit - i wanted a simple, raw track, killer bassline and a soulful vocal. the process was very fast and i made the majority of the groove in one morning. i dug deep in my collection, looking for that special vocal and came across steve silk hurleys chain of fools (with aretha franklin on the original vocal), and it just made the record pop! - rogue d as an artist minchella has played some of the worlds most esteemed establishments and released on a wealth of high profile labels. he now aims to use his rogue d guise as a means to express his forward thinking and personal tastes in sound- from techno to old school garage to the sounds of detroit. he’s already released on dftd as well as providing a remix of soul claps misty on classic music company. in his relatively short career so far, label favourite patrick topping has made the cover of mixmag, won a coveted dj mag best of british award and made the resident advisor top 100 djs. hes released some of the biggest tracks on hot creations and is resident for jamie jones paradise at dc10. on his rework of chains, topping isolates the vocal and adds a tribal bounce to proceedings.

full disclosure...i changed the entire release schedule to jam this record in this year. when you listen, hopefully can see why. from getting the demos during my breakfast, the record was agreed and in the schedule by the time i’d finished my dinner. currently if you cut austin ato i believe he’ll bleed an amazing record. this record swings between a peak-time hands in the air pink loveheart vibe, hot and heavy classic sample based house, and some real basement orientated machine-made jacking house. its like a quadruple a side release, and i personally find it impossible to pick a favourite on here.

sadar bahar ist ein us-amerikanischer house-dj aus chicago mit einem faible für disco und funk, der insbesondere durch die wundervolle kompilation -soul in the hole- (2012) auch abseits der dancefloors dieser welt für aufmerksamkeit sorgen konnte. gemeinsam mit dem synthesizer-enthusiasten und electro veteranen ben spaander aka cosmic force hat er in dessen utrechter studio vier schwer groovende tanzbodenfüller aufgenommen. -electronic frequencies- lässt mit einer hypnotischen synth-bassline, gerader kickdrum und jazzigen gitarrensprengseln klassische 80er-house-zeiten hochleben. -fast trumpet- zaubert aus funky wah-wah-gitarren und einem ohrwurmartigen bläser-sample einen frenetischen discosong. der disco/funk-workout -binaries in love- lebt vom schwindeligen zusammenspiel aus saxofon und rockiger gitarre. den abschluss macht das geschmeidige jazz-funk-stück -east river throwdown- mit einem ikonischen break.

the original process of re-mixing repress , records was intended to provide an alternative listening experience which had been optimized for people who went out to dance at discos. john was one of the early pioneers who loved music, understood his craft and had respect for the creative work from which his mixes were derived

repress! this compilation is his second for bbe. few can match john morales contribution to the world of the enthusiast turned remixer come producer. john morales is considered one of true legends of the mix. and his work some thirty years later continues to be cutting wedge and inspiring. although familiar with john s work - his epic mix of universal robot bands boogie anthem is the source from which bbe records got its name - no attempt had been made to summarise the pinnacle of john s work. this second release is continued history lesson in dance music. he formed with the late sergio munzibai, m+m productions whose output of over 650 mixes will be unmatched by many celebrity big name remixers of today.

the grasso is greener in bologna: home to two of the most well-connected collectors in italy. suppliers to the likes of kenny dope, phil asher and dimitri, gino and federico have carved their crate craft to insane levels over the last 30+ years. as shown on this detailed, widescreen boogie, funk and disco collection for bbc.

*jingo* is an all-time classic dance record, sampled, edited, re-configured and coveted by too many names to mention! it’s a killer funky disco version of master nigerian drummer olatunjis 1969 percussion suite of the same name, salsoul style, while over on the flip we have one of the deepest disco records of all time, *thousand finger man* a testament to candidos percussion prowess and a spacey, beautiful voyage that has left more than an indelible mark on modern house music, often being cited as a huge influence by artists such as masters at work and more. essential stuff basically, every collection should have a copy! this 12 inch has got to be one of the toughest salsoul records to find. changing hands for up to £300 a time for a used copy. now it has been re-mastered, re-pressed and made available again with all original label artwork intact with the permission of salsoul records, new york city.

though the iconic imagery of disco feels distinctly tied to the united states, the style had a wide-reaching influence that made it’s way to africa. while africa was already no stranger to the pulsing rhythms of funk, afro-beat, and highlife, the rise of disco added a slick sheen to the music, with musicians from all over the continent incorporating elements of the genre into their sounds. would there ever have been a studio 54 in ghana in late 70s, these would have been the recordings that would have packed the dance floor with their deep root in disco, soul & funk! an album recorded in the late 70s packed full of legendary musicians such as harry mosco and many more… to be re-discovered 35 years after it’s initial vinyl release as a private press. a “disco documentary full of funk” proves that it stands the test of time by sounding as fresh and original as any other sought-after disco / soul funk lp from the west coast of africa in the late 70s. bbe went on another crate-digging journey and found the original producer reindorf nana oppong and the original master tapes were dusted off, transferred to digital. in the process of this, even un-released material was discovered on the tapes, which makes this a rather special package. “nana love - disco documentary full of funk” is one special journey through afro disco & boogie in the late 70s, and we at bbe can guarantee that you won’t be disappointed!!!

x5 myths forgotten by day following his return with 12inches on vakant and boddikas nonplus throughout 2017, avatism lands on parachute with 4 90s-inspired emo-trance breakbeat summertime anthems for people who despise summer. vinyl comes with a digital download featuring a track we couldnt fit on the record because we are not good with maths.

techno, disco, italo, electronics, house, library, cosmic and ambient frequencies - these are the bedrocks of the midnight drive ethos and sound. a label shining a light on overlooked or unheralded creations and respectfully reissuing them for the contemporary audience. a label that respects and understands the connection between these disparate and sometimes forgotten forms of musical expression and celebrates them.

death on the balcony s ‘tides of fortune has been the subject of relentless -track id- requests pleading us to reveal the name of the artist and track since be-at-tv streamed the bpm performance of lee burridge and matthew dekay back in 2015. joined on the ep by three other tracks there s a cohesive feel to the two friends vibe. mysterious melodies drift in and out of the hypnotic grooves on rivers of sound that could have soundtracked a star trek episode from the original series. 1700 miles is delicate and deep with a simple infectious vocal sample. don t be deceived though. when played on a club system the kick drum and bassline draw you in while the atmospheric elements send the listener to otherworldly places. we feel rather privileged as this track is mark’s first solo outing from dotb under his new moniker “caramelli” and dotbs first full length on all day i dream. mark’s back in the band for memories of the future which completes the release with its funky bass and trippy ambience. close your eyes and be transported.

limited information on this release, it contains two super edits that have been heavily road tested on a certain soundsytem that is currently doing the rounds. not much information beyond that but the music speaks for itself. slow mo with energy. more soon
