to celebrate the 100th single release and 15 successful years in the biz, sasses moodmusic brings you the first single from the forthcoming martin dawson album >sunday smoking<. having just started releasing under his own name in 2010, >sunday smoking< is the release that develops the growing relationship between martin and moodmusic.

just over a year after it launched, jay shepeards retrofit presents its fifth release, with the label boss teaming up once again with matthew burton for a quartet of classy deepness you would expect from the imprint.

retrofit reaches release no. 4 with a solo endeavour from boss jay shepheard that truly encapsulates the labels mantra of referencing vintage house, disco and techno but laying it in a sheen of contemporary sonic dynamism. this is more than evident on the expertly paced >all over my nord< which is driven by a richly elastic analogue bassline riding the slick syncopation. a surfeit of melodic stabs imbues the track with real energy whilst the gradual rise to dominance of a pad wash drenched in detroit atmospherics adds the requisite emotion! this is complemented by the much more immediate >string theory< which opens the b side with a master class in future retro jacking house business whilst >kuderskis groove< bridges the gap between filtered disco aesthetics and deep house bpms with nonchalant ease. prime dj business once again from the retrofit camp.

played by the revenge !!! after just 2 stellar releases retrofit is rapidly becoming one of the hottest new labels on the scene - releases one and two already charted and hammered by the cream of the crop inc sammy dee, cottam, mark henning, catz & dogz, seth troxler and a ton of others. now label head jay shepheard teams up with his pal tad wily (fresh from his debut alongside greg wilson and tensnake on smash hit music) for the 3rd installment. on this hotly tipped ep, already charted by the revenge on ra, the pair deliver four retrofit quality future disco tracks destined to be rocking the clubs in the coming months and beyond.

2nd release for retrofit brings 4 deep collaboration-cuts by matthew burton, kate rathod and jay shepheard.

up next here at dirt crew recordings is one of our favourite producers and biggest talents in the house scene these days. jay shepheard gained much respect with his fantastic releases and remixes for compost, diynamic, buzzin fly and most recently on his own retrofit label that just saw its launch a few months ago and has been taking off since then. dry percussive house music with a cool disco feel to it and great 80s string hooks. nothing less is offered on this new ep for our label, 4 tracks that go down the same smooth path into house heaven… your dancefloors will love it !

the motor, the city and soul do return to one of the longest running deephouse labels on the planet. with almost 40 releases and still kicking and keeping vinyl alive this release is no exception. matthias vogt & c-rock join forces again and the two present a heavy loaded package of deep house. with sascha dive and jay shepheard we got two men of the moment to remix -cipher- and all four mixes turned out to be just amazing. sascha dives remix is built on driving beats and develops big time floor potential. vogt re-arranged cipher into an epic musical master piece that incorporates his piano skills. stir15 label head c-rock strips the whole thing down to a deep and tripped out dub and jay shepheard follows his last releases and deivers a stellar deep tech-house groover. a box full of house in different blends. after satoshi tomiees -back to basics- this is another amazing release that already made big waves housefloors around

jay shepheard (compost rec) brings us a maximum groovin deep disco vinyl / full of 80s flavoured madness!!! proper 12 inch !

jay shepheard returns to his home label compost black label for another killer release, including remixes by jimpster, tj kong & nuno, motorcitysoul and roberto rodriguez. the jimpster remix is a dry bone punchy knorke knock on wood remix. motorcitysoul uploading their classic windy city-detroit-mainhattan house drive here

production powerhouse glimpse returns from recent outings on planet e and cadenza to provide one of this summers must have releases!

jay haze(tuning spork) lends his analog ways to abe+blakes classic >disco lights<. the release includes a recut version of the original track ad well(adr07). the haze mix is thick and thumps. deep chords and deeper bass. a warm house version that keeps baxter lighting the way.

the runners are a new project by our man lukas who has been with dirt crew and players paradise from the beginning and his buddy kevin cook. both young and very talented producers who teamed up to drop some delicious deep house on the next dirt crew release. kevin just made the move to ibiza while bristol based lukas is very succesful in running his buoyancy parties over there. with >hot fun< and >woman pleaser< coming in two different deep mixes this ep is one for the house lovers, taking dirt crew more and more towards the soulfull and groovy path of the new house movement. to top things off we asked another rising star in the scene and one of our favourite producers at this moment jay shepheard (compost, diynamic, drumpoet community) who recently made the move from london to berlin. he delivers a great remix with a deep sub bass and a lush chord filled groove… you will love it

the first release on the new label x-pected records is a fantastic house-version of the old shannon hit from the 80s and supported with great remixes - already top 10 in all german dance-charts. incl. belmond & parker remix and mark ves remix.

with frankly amazing singles on his own glimpse recordings and matt tolfreys leftroom earlier this year, 2007 is shaping up to be one hell of a year fro christopher spero aka house/techno prodigy glimpse. here, he delivers his debut for the uk-based bastion of quality that is four:twenty with a superb collaboration with critically acclaimed taka boom (sister of chaka khan) in the form of we existed. another great uk talent, tom demac is first to remix we existed and does so in fine style. its plain to see why so many labels of note are requesting releases from tom on first listen to his skilful, deep and dubby excursion into detroit inspired house. jay shepheard, not to be outdone, turns in two remixes for the package. his alternative remix is up first and is a driving affair with a percussive punch and nagging fm chords providing the perfect base for takas vocals and some well placed keys. the main rmx from compost man shepheard carries on the mantle of quality with a decidedly more electronic and epic feel: a shrinking violet this is not

body to body is a key track from jay tripwires debut album, gemini soul. the remixes start up with deephouse legend, fred everything. next up, our swedish friends groovenauts deliver a percussion lead deep dancefloor burner. the last two tracks get a bit darker as mazi delivers a pair of remixes under his audio soul project guise.

excellent hypnotic deep minimal techhouse action with soul

second release from uks jay shepheard. his first ep for compost black label is still going strong. the new 4 track ep ranges from jacking electro house over disco influences to detroit strings, from early 90s acid to balearic. another killer 12inch

jay moved through the ranks at juno and with 5 years record shop work experience under his belt jay now has a broad influence base for his current productions. these mainly focus on classic, itaol and nu disco, us, deep, and acid house right through vintage techno and the modern minimal sounds. his recent productions like this fine four track ep combine many of these influences but always lean toward the warm, retro, vintage electronic sounds that first time around he was too young to experience

hot off the heels of their second release jcats good times menu music delivers another platter produced by menu head honcho jay cunning and menu resident smithmonger on remix duties they ve enlisted the talents of irelands finest breakbeat producers splitloop who ve recently released their debut album on against the grain (sb)

a crackling future retro sound bomb, dry, tough,sonic intimate and on the point beat programmed this is maybe the most 'common sensed' release on the more house oriented wnw lab yet.as a bonus pill our favourite 'man' jay haze is doctoring some of hios famous rework pharmaceutica: super rough with a bassline ripping like sandpaper, claustrophobic sounds and mark ' dark sniper' schneider firing classic b-boy boasting lyrics straight in yer face.s.i.c.k. ! if this medicine's not thrillin then you?d propably ain't enough illin

melodie opens up cinetic art records with two trippy cuts that will take you on a deep journey listening to them in your home or at the club. the b side also has a remix by legendary producer jay tripwire that takes you on an even deeper state. cinetic art records is about music which is constantly evolving and at the same time builds up a subtle energy in the listeners mind and body. vinyl only.

repress . produced by j dilla - mixed by dj pete rock! feat black thought (the roots), doom, m.o.p. and others!!! 25 track collection of unreleased dilla beats mixed and arranged by soul brother no.1, dj pete rock!

repress - j dilla is widely regarded as one of the greatest hip-hop producers of all time, having supplied timeless soundbeds for the likes of a tribe called quest, slum village, the pharcyde, busta rhymes, common, de la soul, the roots, d’angelo, erykah babu, madlib, and many more. in 2005, rumors began circulating about an album called “jay love japan”, a j dilla solo project inspired by one of jay dee’s favorite locations to visit on tour. after dilla’s untimely death in early 2006, the album became a lost classic shrouded in mystery, with only unofficial bootlegs and promo versions available. an official cd version was eventually released in 2008, but quickly went out of print. now, the album is finally receiving the official release it always deserved. j dilla’s mother ma dukes and her label vintage vibez music group are proud to present official vinyl and cd versions of “jay love japan”. with six soulful dilla instrumentals and vocal appearances from blu, miguel, j*davey, ta’raach, exile, baatin, and more, this 11-track collection is a perfect snapshot of late-period j dilla brilliance.
