180g audiophiles vinyl inkl. 4-seitigem einleger mit lyrics + credits zum ersten mal ?berhaupt auf vinyl! -come clean- ist das hüchst erfolgreiche major label deb?t von puddle of mudd.
es erschien urspr?nglich 2001 und zeichnete sich ma?geblich daf?r verantwortlich, puddle of muss in den kommerziellen mainstream zu ?berf?hren. das album erreichte platz 9 in den billboard charts, hat sich bisher ?ber 5 millionen mal verkauft und wurde drei mal mit platin ausgezeichnet. -blurry-, die zweite single des album erreichte als erfolgreichste single der band platz 5 der billboard hot 100, platz 8 der britischen single charts und gewann ebenfalls im gleichen jahr den ascap ,song of the year- award. 2001 ging die band als opener mit godsmack und den deftones auf tour und war teil der family values tour mit linkin park, den stone temple pilots und staind.

it was the spring of 2007 when paul ‘mudd’ murphy and kevin pollard announced the arrival of the former’s claremont 56 label with “villa stavros”, a magical first collaborative 12”. it seems somewhat fitting, then, that claremont 56’s final release of its’ first decade will be “n7 odyssey”, the first collaborative album from mudd & pollard.

henry wu (aka kamaal williams of yussef kamaal) returns to eglo records following on from his joint ep with k15. deep in the mudd is a heavy weight 6 track ep which journeys through broken beat, house, hip hop and jazz. the previously released negotiate ft. simeon jones, which originally came out on eglo sister label hotep, gets a 2017 remix courtesy of the legendary kaidi tatham and uk funky og hardhouse banton joins wu on title track deep in the mudd and century. essential business, no messing about!

six years ago, claremont 56 boss paul ‘mudd’ murphy tried to track down via his dj network, former freeez band-members john rocca and andy stennett to license pink rhythm’s “melodies of love”, for one of the originals compilations. they didn’t show up on the radar.
earlier this year, however, out of the blue, stennett got in touch with murphy. for much of the last two decades, he’d been living on a remote island off orkney, but was now pursuing music again.

as claremont 56 speeds towards its’ ten-year anniversary, label founder paul murphy continues to champion little known producers and previously unheard artists.
over the past 12 months, the label has showcased material from rising talents such as bella figura, simon peter, paraiso and oma & amberflame. now, claremont 56 is adding another new name to the roster: statues.

some believe that the environment in which you make music – from the studio space, to the location itself – has a profound effect on the creative process. immerse yourself in the world around you, the theory goes, and it will shape the music you make. listen to gorthleck, the third album from veteran downtempo alchemists benjamin smith and paul ‘mudd’ murphy, and you can almost visualize the craggy, windswept and breathtakingly beautiful environment in which it was made.

two favourites from the psychemagik magic sunset compilation gets the dj friendly extension treatment from body & soul’s andi hanley and claremont’s mudd. essential!

second release from uber records is jesus luvs u baby. los porcos drop a tripped out dreamy piece of indie balearic soft rock. reverbed guitars and chugging bassline and a blissed out vocal. on the remix claremont 56 boss paul mudd murphy delivers a stripped back atmospheric dub groove whilst the second remix from is it balearic..? boys coyote step on the delay pedal and and hit the percussion. the lazy hammock dub is exactly that ... uno dos tres quatro.

the heart melting, floor obliterating grooving beast when the mud falls is held with high regard in the gc stables. solidly built on a foundation of fat tuned kicks, curly sub and an uncompromising tour de force piano spiral. effervescently ethereal, bringing on vague recollections of 80s high-end synth led kosmische production

beautiful one-sided release by mudd & pollard for claremont 56, limited to 500 copies only.

smith & mudd are back in fine style on claremont 56, following up their excellent lp with this great double header! >sauna love< is the lead track, an uptempo, string laden boogie house affair with great vibes, bass, strings and punchy percussion all rolling along into the sunshine. on side-b >the surveyor< is a great piece of otherworldly electronic music, coming on like some weird cough medicine induced dream. the bass pulses along with mystery dialogue, light key flourishes and an intent that is delivered about 5 minutes in when the kick drops and the whole thing shifts into a latenight, alt disco bomb.

kaine teams up with kathy diamond for this soulful disco gem. b-sides >phathead< gets the remix treatment from mudd bondi.

is it balearic return with their most eagerly anticipated release yet!

smith & mudd follow their second album, le suivant with something that goes a bit darker. side a is a chuggy affair where the beats drive a bit harder than their usual tracks but the lushness and the bass groove are still there. a beautiful electric violin solo takes the second half to a different place. side b is a deep bass journey that sounds like jean luc ponty and terry callier combined with a but of led zep. fantastic stuff. check

rong music, the new york disco label beloved by the likes of lindstrom, idjut boys, glimmer twins, quiet village and harvey releases its first artist album. mudd (aka paul murphy) is more commonly known as a part of late 90s dub disco dons akwaaba, alongside steve fela kotey (chicken lips). akwaaba released 2 albums on idjut boys label discfunction and were championed by some legends such as francois k, ron trent and larry heard. under the mudd alias paul has released on key nu disco labels rong, noid, big bear, vertige, stranger, session, discograph and cottage. mudds signature sound is a live, song based take on the spaced out disco trip made popular by lindstrom & prins thomas/rub & tug/idjut boys & quiet village. an essential release for all fans of balearica and cosmic disco.

rong returns with more top gear for the late night disco dubsessions. here london's paul murphy (akwabba member) makes his mark with a chugging 115 bpm electro number, before handing things off for two killer remixes. ray mang amps up the dub factor, lays down a sick funk breakbeat and goes bananas with the steve miller synths
