vier jahre haben sie sich zeit gelassen für den nachfolger von the king is dead . the decemberists, colin meloy, chris funk (gitarre), jenny conlee (keyboard), nate query (bass) und john moen (schlagzeug), entschlossen sich nach erfolgreichem tourende 2011, eine bandpause einzulegen und sich persönlichen dingen zu widmen. sie hatten mit the king is dead immerhin gerade ein album veröffentlicht, das in den us charts sofort auf platz 1 schoss und ihr song down by the water wurde für den grammy in der kategorie best rock song nominiert. aber ganz von der bildfläche verschwanden sie dann doch nicht. ihre animierten alter egos traten bei den simpsons auf, für den soundtrack von hunger games lieferten sie den song our engine , meloy veröffentlichte die prämierte kinderbuchserie wildwood und das livealbum we all raise our voices to the air , das ihre atemberaubende intensität auf der bühne widergibt, erinnerte uns immer wieder an die wunderbare band aus portland.

following the success of its first release by the ever elusive jason grove, the vinyl-only sub-label skylax extra series returns with a little something beyond special. for those house-heads in the know, the man needs no introduction, but for those uninitiated, sit back and prepare for this double 12” selection to further your education in house music.joey kay hails from chicago in the us and has influenced a great many producers in the last two decades with his signature take on the deep house sound. he keeps things simple in the best possible sense of the word, stripping back tracks to their bare essentials in order to maintain what the spirit of house music is all about: the groove, the soul and the feeling of being carefree, even if only experienced for a few minutes at a time. there are no superfluous or ancillary sounds in joey’s music and this is all the more evident when taking a step back and listening to his spectrum of output in this collection, which spans more than twenty years of his career.

skylax records, the company focused on realeasing original obscure dance classic and everythings that sounds fine to their ears ! what a special one we have here on skylax classic! damien zala, the man who put out the superb album ‘lonely happiness’ on rowtag records in late 2012, who gets heavy support from the great theo parrish, dishes up six special tracks for our next release. before diving in, it is well worth noting that a selection of damiens album tracks had remixes by the likes of house icons such as dj jus-ed, rick wade and boo williams! if those names register even the slightest blip on your radar, which they should, then this record might be the treasure youve been searching for. damiens sampling technique has a certain air of grandeur to it. shake vibration makes this apparent right from the start with intricate layers of vocals, guitar licks and keys. all my respect and come around both follow suit whilst dizzie picks up the b side with a bit more energy and frenzy compared to what has come before it. the record rounds out with two tracks taking things a bit deeper. stay where you are drives forward with filtered pad chords that accompany jazzy sax and vocal cuts while conversely, z to the jz brings in a moodier vibe with its jazz samples and smoky drums. do not miss the chance to get such a gem of a record from damien zala!, c l a s s i c ! a must to have in every djs collection. essential item no digital

when diamond district dropped in the ruff on mello music group in 2009, the gritty drums and grimy raps combined as elementally as hydrogen and oxygen. the d.c. voltron of oddisee, yu, and x.o. dusted off and revitalized a sound once consigned to the catacombs. hailed as an instance classic, its impact reverberated throughout the underground and mainstream. the washington d.c. city paper called it the citys best album in many years. during an era when lyricism was deemed too intellectual and samples too dated, diamond district overturned conventional logic. they preserved the raw and made it righteous. a half-decade later, the holy trinity has returned with march on washington. the truths remain timeless. wisdom over rhythm. slang turned into testament.
