while feeling very honored and excited to have three extremely talented artists feature on his new real tone records release, shonky the french berlin-based producer who is also a part of apollonia, has asked larry heard, delano smith and the martinez brothers a couple of different questions each to give us more of an insight to them and their artistry.

when the house music phenomenon was beginning, chicago djs like ron hardy and new yorkers such as frankie knuckles and larry levan would edit records for their own purposes, removing the parts they felt to be superfluous, concentrating instead on extending grooves and hooks, often adding their own basic synth lines and toughening up the percussion with what have now become classic synthesizers and drum machines. warehouse classics vol.1 holds 4 killer tracks going from obscure disco to new wave, first popularised at the music box and rarely heard anywhere else. sir leon greg (another incarnation of perseus traxx) jams out then reinforces some edits of forgotten classics with a raw & personal analogue treatment for a devastating full effect on the dance floor, that is a far cry from the proliferation of over-produced squeaky-clean software edits. these are basic, raw ideas thrown down quickly and capturing the energy on 1/4 inch tape before moving on to the next set of sounds. musically, its as delightfully funky and uncomplicated as youd expect, a mesh of disco tracks and heavy, effect laden, machine-funk. essential item!!

180gr vinyl!! bjak and dubbyman team up to become twin beats on the latters deep explorer imprint. this is the pairs first collaborative release, but their studio chemistry is there for all to see as the first few bars of >do it properly< ease out through your speakers. its floaty, jazz-flecked house bathed in pools of gently rippling bass tones, and things are given a sophisticated edge by the adroit vocals of brian cullen. this shares the a-side with the slightly more upbeat >water walk with me<, with cullen matching marvin belton in the modern day soulful crooner stakes. flip over for a remix of the title track from - gulp - larry heard, with the chicagoan legend turning in a typically sumptuous slice of machine soul that naturally hogs the vast majority of the b-side, before an excellent ep is rounded off by a beatless outro

though classically trained, arthur russells major contributions to the music world is in the dance genre. despite the fact that his pioneering work in the late 70s and on through the 80s was only quietly acknowledged at the time, his long-term impact is best described as formidable. russell died in 1992, but his art lives on and his influence is still felt in the world of dance music and beyond. his innovative, leftfield dance records flew way ahead of what people were used to hearing at the time, due in part to his involvement in new yorks downtown avant-garde music scene.
