already supported by andy cato (groove armada), anthony collins, dop, joris voorn, mark fanciulli, riva starr, gavin herlihy, ray okpara and many many more. jordan peak is already a well known name for those in the know, with a string of fantastic releases on tsuba, one, morris/audio, saved, robsoul and area remote (phew!) jordan has ticked the boxes of all of our favourite labels here at klasse and its a pleasure to welcome him to the family for his own release.

>the musical styles on moon harbour inhouse vol. 4< range from the deep house of luna city express and ekkohaus to the reduced groovy tech house á la tini & marc antona, andy catana and boris werner and the floor fillers by reboot and dan drastic. in this sense the selection of tracks mirrors the current breadth of styles represented by the label in its 12th year. since the third inhouse compilation, a lot has happened at moon harbour. in addition to the releases of the albums hello from planet earth by luna city express (2009) and paradigm shift by martinez (2010), the tenth anniversary of the label was celebrated with gusto in 2010 complete with the compilation and club tour, ten years of moon harbour. the year 2010 also marked the birth of the monthly moon harbour radio show. luna city express and dan drastic have been taking turns producing this show, which has already had more than 25 editions.

black key records continues an excellent run with its third deep house release, >metacoma< by chamboche which is backed by two remixes from underground quality/tsuba ltd artist blm.
following tracks and remixes from andy ash, ethyl, jonny cade and ugly drums, this is another must-check from one of londons newest imprints.

semtek leaves the comfort of his excellent dont be afraid imprint to supply the third 12 inch on andy blake s in plain sight label, following stellar turns from youngtee and maarten van der vleuten. its not the first time blake has called on the london-based producers services - world unknown devotees will remember the monolithic >tacos for dinner< cut in association with chardonnay that appeared on that labels most recent 12 inch. >couer de lyon< is a chunky house jam of the highest order, shuffling hats, a stripped back bassline and a vocal many of you will recognise from one of mks most legendary remixes combine for a cut that overflows with sultry late night passion. flip over for some soundtracky house in the shape of >beaufort<, an analogue jam in the mould of legowelt that retains a club-ready potency and thus offers a more heads-down alternative to the a-side.

bokhari records is a vinyl only label. bokhari has been inspired by mo wax of old, and firecracker of present where care was/is also taken on packaging and design. each release will feature a different illustrator / artist for the design. musically we will aim to stick loosely within the realms of house and techno, but often with our own slant on it, and as the first release shows, in this case will include some afro percussion and a touch of acid. bokhari 001 only 300 copies will be pressed. artwork for release 001 is by the excellent illustrator andy potts (former head of design at abbey road studios), and every single vinyl will be signed and numbered. remix comes from the ever consistent mark e, who has taken the shrunken head bassline and made a 10 minute druggy, chuggy, loopy, creepy monster (and anything else you want with a ‘y’ at the end!)

mother rose is the brand new project from oddball wizard luke solomon and howlin wilf, the veejays and sometime polecats guitarist, andy neal.

well, the deep, raw and real series has come to an end with volume 4, but quintessentials keep these lovely compilations coming. the thank you freaks series is about hot tunes from hot producers. and part 1 is offering a lot of them: andy ash, uncle deep, chicago damn and marcos cabral! quite essential!

dont be afraid present spargel trax, a two part series of vinyl-only, coloured, hand-stamped 12 inches designed to celebrate the dual themes of great seasonal music and great seasonal spargel. contributing tracks across the two 12 inches are some of our favourite artists currently making house music. from established artists like disco nihilist, andy blake, sound species and james duncan to up and coming artists like david joseph from cologne, hodge from bristol, untitled-w from st. petersburg, for whom this is the first outing on wax, and scott fraser from glasgow. no clues though as to which is which, you will have to just listen to the tracks and hear for yourself! proof that 2012 is a great time for music, a great time for wax and a great time for spargel.

casbah73 is back with this wicked eccentric house 12 inch. >i m feeling lucky< is a deep and intense detroit-influenced vocal house jam. a take on the classic muzic box spirit, this one s got that anthemic feel about it and has classic written all over it. over on the flip side >i am the main bitch< keeps the party going. it is a polyrhythmic groovy house number that hits all the right keys to move the dancefloor. also included is a remix of this track, aptly named >in the middle east<, which adds an erm ... middle eastern flavour to the whole thing: a bit psychedelic, yet effective. all that, on a very limited 12 inch with screen-printed artwork and download coupon. with amazing artwork by graphic genius pepe medina.

for another record store day release, british singer-songwriter victoria christina hesketh (little boots) teamed up with historic chicago house label trax to release the 12 inch for >every night i say a prayer<. she wrote this one with hercules & love affairs andy butler and it is better than anything on his groups sophomore dud blue songs. (it is also better than pretty much everything on little boots own spotty debut, 2009s hands.) the housey original version of >every night< incorporates a sort of cleaned-up old-school chicago aesthetic (dig the claps), but tensnakes posh freestyle rerub is the vinyls real winner. you can never go wrong with clinking 808s and pretty female vocals. fact.

dont be afraid present spargel trax, a two part series of vinyl-only, coloured, hand-stamped 12 inches designed to celebrate the dual themes of great seasonal music and great seasonal spargel. contributing tracks across the two 12 inchess are some of our favourite artists currently making house music. from established artists like disco nihilist, andy blake, sound species and james duncan to up and coming artists like david joseph from cologne, hodge from bristol, untitled-w from st. petersburg, for whom this is the first outing on wax, and scott fraser from glasgow. no clues though as to which is which, you?ll have to just listen to the tracks and hear for yourself! proof that 2012 is a great time for music, a great time for wax and a great time for spargel. spargel is very popular in the netherlands, spain, france, belgium, germany, and switzerland, and almost exclusively white. else, it is specified by the local language term for green asparagus. compared to the latter, the locally cultivated so-called white gold or edible ivory, also referred to as the royal vegetable, is less bitter and much more tender. freshness is highly regarded, and it must be peeled before cooking or raw consumption.

the dream of another way, red light on her skin, smoke and sensuality in the air, broken promises and a mans embrace. born out of east london’s underground party, love fever records seeks to encapsulate the intensity of a+as late nights and early mornings. over 3 years of pioneering and party providing has seen love fever grow from a word of mouth disco in a dalston loft, to the party for the musically aware, and adult orientated mincers of london and beyond. warehouses, strip clubs, art gallerys and photographic studios have been transformed with many of the true disc jockeys in electronic music joining alex & andy to push the boundaries. a sound has emerged, cross genre, with a heavy leaning on sleaze, elitist house and romantic techno to create a pornographic energy.

jack fell down are a slight adjustment to the generic format presented by producers and djs who. through conformity and expectance stand without exception in the fog of musics popularity led culture. opting instead to work in obscurity and anonymity jack fell down have signed a deal with one of the worlds longest standing and respected dance labels, southern fried records along side some of the industries biggest artist. jack fell downs debut release is a limited edition 12 inch extended player and will be in shops april 2012, this will be followed up with remixes for the 2 bears and a second ep with southern fried. jack fell down have an exclusive track on the upcoming jaymo & andy george compilation and have confirmed radio shows and blog podcasts with platforms such as ibizas sarah mains syndicated radio show. jack fell downs approach to a performance is purist, exchanging the mac book pro for the 1210s and the digital effects unit for technique, they are content to share the love at a dirty bog stomp or a world class club.

phat acidic four track remix ep

nice price deal !!! after the amazing success of his ram records debut single, >brainstorm / echoes< hamilton is back with a release that contains a pair of undeniably epic tracks. hamilton runs riot with his impeccable production skills to offer a 12 that has already gained support from all the major players within the dance music scene, including andy c, hype, culture shock, chase & status to name but a few.

the first world unknown 12 inch of 2012 is a double header of throbbing midtempo techno and as with all world unknown releases from now on both tracks have been mastered for vinyl from ½ inch tape for maximum sonic excellence. on side w semtek from dont be afraid joins forces with his afterparty alter-ego chardonnay and a certain rather well known og hipster poet on >tacos for dinner<, an extremely modern and massively psychedelic trip into the outer mind. this clicking, bleeping, fizzing and throbbing ten minute excursion has been road tested from acetate by andy blake for many months and always sends the club somewhere very special and ever so slightly scary. on side u scott fraser delivers >remains the same<. its a notch or two less pacey than side w but no less powerful or psychedelic. its earthy vibe and pounding, throbbing tones have been part of andrew weatheralls sets for some time now and its not hard to see why. when the full percussion finally comes crunching in like a breakbeat on top of the ever-present heavyweight bassline its disco pandemonium time. in short, possibly the best 12 inch so far from wu.

despite the doors being closed on dissident in 2009, former boss andy blake has been anything but quiet, with his world unknown imprint bringing the acid and ebm sounds of his night of the same name to the world. now hes started another label, in plain sight, which looks set to bring more esoteric house sounds to our ears, with the first release coming from the hitherto unknown youngtee. the first track, >dr chocolate< fuses the kind of oddball low-slung sounds and spoken-word samples that in flagranti have been masters of for years, with jazzy keys and 808 cowbells which hint at a subtle chicago influence. the classic house influence continues of >perfect model<, which combines misty chords with an 80s pop groove, falsetto vocal sample and synth jam solo which comes across as alternate universe michael jackson track. as youd expect from a label curated by blake, its house music, but not quite as you know it.

>sun god<, the beastly album closer from cut copys grammy-nominated 2011 opus zonoscope, has been remixed by uk producer andy weatherall.

bristolian label think deep do exactly that when they sign new tunes. this latest instalment is a breath of fresh air and paul sg and andy sim really go in on this remix of >infinite mischief< which in its original form is a well engineered slice of liquid solely designed for the dancefloor.

organs of love are the power-sleaze duo of james mckinven (organs, love) and alicia matthews (vocals, love). james mckinvens musical odyssey started with playing synth in (kraftwerk, suicide-inspired) electro band berlin blondes. he then moved on to altered images. after that he worked in genetic studios learning from the modern day genius that was producer martin rushent (human league, the stranglers, the buzzcocks). then went on to form one dove and worked with maverick genius andy weatherall. after that he drifted back to where it all started, analog electro, and miss alicia matthews. alicia matthews has quite a different background – one from fine art and performance. through working together at the same bar and having many intoxicating late night chats, they decided to try to get back to a 70s theatrical, musical performance: where live music and art combine for something beyond the rock gig vibe. and luckily enough, miss matthews has quite the pair of pipes – a true vocal delight. the result is organs of love … who frequently perform live around glasgow and have quite the reputation of thee band to see. videos can be provided, but they are not for the faint-hearted! not that optimo music ever provide a dull moment …

limited edition of 200 copies, already supported by pig & dan, andy düx, george perry, peter latino, thorsten graeber and soon by you!

next up in studio barnhus split coloured 10 inch series (the previous installment was acid andy and axel boman on yellow vinyl) is handsome newcomer hnny and barnhus very own desperado kornel kovacs. on the a side, hnny takes a saccharine rnb cover of perhaps the greatest power ballad ever and turns it into a perfect little edit – as simple as it is inspired, this is an obvious end-of-the-night-turn-the-lights-up-in-the-club-anthem if we ever heard one. on the logo side, kornel kovacs brings the heat with down since 92 - a bass-driven, vocal-laced pop house song about hate, love and jealousy. break it down! red vinyl, no digital - limited to 300 copies worldwide. barnhus bang the party once again! freshness.

excellent four track vinyl sampler, minimal tech funker at it best

after 2 years of throwing events in new york, stranjjur nycs next logical step was to move on to a more international platform. after introducing artists such as milton jackson, carlo lio, spencer parker, manik, till von sein, alex niggemann, pezzner and many others to the big apple, stranjjurs kev obrien (alongside label partner andy inelli) have decided to carry on the same a&r principals that made the events a success over to stranjjurs newest venture: a fully-fledged record label. the new brooklyn-based label has decided to hit the ground running with its debut ep coming from hot italian duo, lula circus. having also just recently been signed to one of americas hottest labels, culprit, its safe to say that the lula boys (danilo and sergio) are on the cusp of becoming stars of the underground dance scene. the vinyl edition of the miami vices ep features two amazing original tunes from lula circus, including title track, miami vice, which takes aim at the dance floor with a full arsenal of heavy bass and a powerful disco-inspired hook that instantly grabs a hold of the soul and refuses to let go. ovum and hot natured wonder-kid, manik, delivers a highly addictive remix, by slicing the main hook up, while supporting it with an insanely groovy bass line. on the b-side is pumpin groovin moovin, a future-funk jam thats carried by a focused low-end groove and catchy vocals. the remix comes courtesy of freeranges (and recent crosstown rebels signee) pezzner, and its one of his biggest remixes ever. this one has been receiving lots of early promo hype, thanks in part to maya jane coles, who included it in her bbc radio essential mix earlier this month. mayas support has helped to create a global whirlwind of anticipation amongst house music aficionados for the release of this incredible ep. the time has finally come for stranjjur imprint to be born!

nice price deal !!! nice record. reminds me to some earlier legowelt works. beautiful strings and nice spirit. daily is my favourite one. will play it and use it for next mix podcast . radio play at berlin radio, soma radio uk, ibiza fm. andy düx (overdrive/mainz) super production , summer will come !!! peter latino fette open air nummer, für mich sonne pu

the deadly combination of two of the hottest new skool producers tyke & prestige return with two huge dancefloor smashers. >scorpio< is a rolling, jungle influenced track, with influences from the early full cycle and dope dragon catalogue, brought bang up to date with todays exceptional production standards. >immortal formula< is twisted bassline madness in full effect - more of an experimental offering, this is one for the serious bass heads!

hamiltons debut single on ram records is simply massive. having already released two huge 12 inches on frequency and the immense >soundboy<, a track released as part of andy cs nightlife 5, it comes as no surprise that brainstorm and echoes have already conquered dance floors worldwide and is a firm favourite in the sets of andy c, chase & status, hype, bailey, sub focus and fresh to name but a few. brainstorm leads in gently with rolling percussion, building up the suspense until the winding bass and scattered drum beats kick in to create a smasher that all will want hear again and again.
