uks ben wijay starts canute music, a sub-label of phreakin recordings displaying his more adventurous techno and tougher house music concoctions. bringing a slightly harder feel than the phreakin output, but remaining left of centre with quirky melodies groovy percussion. >poisoned potato< starts in dark techno waters with a deep acid bass line, then blossoms into almost border community territory with anthemic distorted chords and quirky breakdowns.>feke< delves deeper with an arrangement that goes from hauntingly minimal into an aggressive staccato riff, then morphing back into itself with deeper melodies. definitely aimed at the 3am dance-floor and will appeal to lovers of the detroit techno sound through to the more obscure villalobos territory. gathering big support from the likes of charles webster, john aquaviva, aldrin and mixmags >house single of the month< (feb 08)

infectious vocal house anthem with a nice piano hook, rocking guitars and nice drums & percussions!!

streetwise was one of the seminal dance labels of the eighties, responsible, with its subsidiary imprint partytime, for several important and influential examples of the dance genre. several of its releases were indicative of the directions that both dance and r&b would take over the next few years. the signing of vocal group new edition and their resulting hit candy girl is generally acknowledged as the beginning of the boy band phenomenon, and the labels last hit, music is the answer, was also a key element in the rise of house music. the label lasted for only a few years before falling victim to its own success and the related success of its owners, especially revered producer and remixer, arthur baker. here is a selection of streetwises greatest 12inch mixes, gathered from the archives during streetwise reign over the dance market presented on this vinyl.

swiss producer steven stone presents the wonderful music sounds so good with you featuring american singer david b. whitley who provides a passionate vocal on top of a smooth funktified groove enriched with warm melodies created by great keys and lovely guitars. domenico navarro provides a mellow latinesque interpretation with an acoustic feel, while anto vitale gives it a deep underground rub on a laidback edge. french newcomers floy & felly provide a beautiful chill out version as well as a classic piano and strings flavored house version.

on the remix duty probably the two biggest names in electronic music at the moment: danny freakazoid and klaas! the original mixes go out a bit more housy with lovely breaks and catchy vocals that increase into a rocking synth theme. the klaas remix features big guitar breaks including the original vocals and the typical huge and boombastic klaas synths. danny freakazoid as the master of intelligent electro delivers two excellent remixes in full freakazoid effect. nothing more to say - this is a bomb!

in the beginning the was a dream, a dream to become part of the living womb of good music. a dream of being real, true to myself and i set this dream to fly high. days and years passed by and i didn t seem to find response but one day in the arkest hour came the light and then i knew i had to hustle it s a song about my determination to express myself widely whitin the realm of good music, won t be selling my soul, won t be taking the easy path, its all about what is real, training harder and harding until i get what i want: the pure sound of goodness for the dancefloor, for my life and the whole world. that s how i hustle. abicah soul confuzed well this track started as another track but i took the sounds from anohter track put with this that how i came up with the idea confused .i started listening sounded good i stuck with it.onw word deep stephen rigmaiden jeepin basically jeepin was done and i was listening to acapella s for like 2 weeks trying to find the right vocal snippets. my thoughts were how was i going to get franck s interest? i knew the track was done but for him to pick it up it needed a vocal. then i came across the perfect vox. i used a montage of a few different vocals, some hip hop elements, some jazz elements, some gospel elements, ill leave up to you to decipher. i knew i wanted a raw, kinda hip hop type of feelingas well, something you can get on the dance floor and go uggh!, that s my shit!! or damn i gotta get in that circle and show em whats up! i made it for the dancers out there, b- boys, house dancers , or jus ya regular club kids. trying to get the crowd hype is always my intentions , i feel this track does jus that. now get on the dance floor and recognize the sound!

>the dawn< is a moody, undulating cruiser of a track, which will subtly but surely make a dancefloor feel a sense of sunrise, whatever time of day or night. busy, clicky percussion sets the scene for a full-bodied, rising, almost trancey bassline to take control. t ups the intensity with real dancefloor nous and precision programming, layering distressed synth sounds and heavily treated keys atop each other while never losing sight of the tracks fierce ,fundamental groove. ‘the dawn’ builds and builds, by turns dropping out the percussion and the bassline, every departure and return a heads-down, hands-aloft dancefloor moment. the crisp snares and rich, melodic notes of delay add even more depth to what is already an essential tune. b-side >jam pot< is more playful, and driven by a classic physical bass melody - at once intimate and techy, dubby and dancefloor-urgent, gritty but optimistic. again, the attention to detail on the percussion takes this track to the next level, and jazzy keys provide an organic ontrast to the robotic blips and bleeps.
