audiojack return to 2020 after a year or so setting up their imprint gruuv. the new single >get serious< shows the duo not only mature as artists but also develop and hone their sound to new house themed productions. the title track is state of the art bounce in a box with a killer vocal hook, >let the rhythm take you<, meandering around sweet insistent stabs. its been smashing terraces, rooftops and discotheques all summer and now its finally available for our select dj friends to carry on the vibes through autumn. >polka dot dress< comes spotted with a sound originally created on the classic korg m1 synth and used by mk to devastating effect in the 90s. audiojack have then sprinkled their magic dust on it and added sweeping detroit techno strings, tight drums and healthy amounts of bottom end rumble. as we look forward it is important to know your roots and audiojack show they know their house history by covering the all time classic by the backroom - definition of a track. no samples at all were used and the guys worked out and replayed all the synth parts before adding new vocals from kevin knapp. by beefing up the original we hope a new generation of djs and clubbers bust out this amazing track. it deserves to be heard again and is produced and primed for todays dancefloors.

for his discographic debut degustibus has chooses to release gin sonic, a tune made by rubini, an italian artist workin and livin between venice and berlin.
gin sonic is a classy old-school track, made in berlin but dreamed in a synthy-outerspace. circular bassline swim in a invincible funky-beat and crush against a wall of synth providing you a sure dancefloor-filler.
in addition they commissioned a remix from berlin-legend dj filippo naughty moscatello. he made 2 versions, impossible to choose the better they included both in the release. remix 1 is a dubby-hypno ride with a moroder-like dizzy bassline. remix 2 is a perfect example of the best naughty style: sharp bassline and vintage-synth blended together in an solid old-school disco journey. already a classic.

ashley beedle returns to the kat records stable, this time on their 45 offshoot...
first up we have flora purim getting ashley beedles extended edit treatment with the sublime latin-jazz funker >angels<. great vocal hooks, guitar licks and a jazz-funk groove with added disco overtones to boot! if the mizell brothers had been born in rio then this is what it probably would have sounded like.
on the flip we have brian protheroes >pinball<. a lost psychedelic pop classic which got to number 22 in the charts in 1974. a staunch ashley beedle fave with his tripped reworking doing exactly what i says on the tin. dubbed, stretched, spaced out and arranged to perfection. great!

studio one women is the latest in the series of studio one compilations released by soul jazz records. ska, rocksteady, funky reggae, roots, dub mixes, disco mixes, they are all here from the queens of the jamaican music scene. studio one women features a wide mix of classics and obscurities from the finest female voices in reggae. until now most of these tracks have only ever been available as extremely hard to find jamaican 7 inch and 12 inch singles and even if you were lucky enough to find them they d cost you a small fortune! marcia griffiths and rita marley (here with her first group the soulettes) are two of jamaicas most famous female singers hugely popular today. both these artists became internationally famous as the i – threes (along with judy mowatt), bob marleys backing singers alongside the wailers. also featured are hortense ellis, sister of alton who cut many smash hit on the island and jennifer lara, a lady who had a long career with studio one, singing on countless sides until she sadly passed away earlier this year. studio one is the greatest label in the history of reggae and is the foundation of all reggae music. it is where virtually every world renowned jamaican superstar started out, bob marley and the wailers included. under the guidance of the legendary clement >coxsone< dodd the musicians at studio one recorded hundreds of instrumental rhythms which still provide the backbone for many of the records made in jamaica today.

about yoav b (delsin/wasa bi) :in the last 10 years, dj yoav b has released some of the finest deep house and techno records around, some are already considered as cult classics. most of you will recognize that thick, thick bassline of his underground anthem >energize<, which was fired at you at many dancefloors around the world, or that dazzling kick drum and fm synth bass line of “organ satta” that appealed to djs from chicago to berlin.with his latest release for the most respected delsin label, entitled >love dubs<, he kept pushing the limits of dance music over the maximum, with some experimental yet funky as hell house and techno music, picked, played and charted by a large scale of djs such as martyn, marcel dettmann, charles webster, basic soul unit and more. near future projects include e.p. releases for the lables meakusma (belgium) and synchrophone (france).as a dj, yoav b. has established himself as one of israels finest underground dance music jocks. also recognized for his unique cut n paste way of mixing, you can hear in his sets nothing but deep and hot music in various styles – from deep house to techno, from disco to jackbeat, from classic to futuristic – all mixed in a furious funky, yet coherent spinning style.

while yacht refers to >dystopia (the earth is on fire)< as a post-apocalyptic fight song and a cautionary tale, the tracks chant-along melodies and unsparing synths nudge listeners far closer to dance than despair. from the sound of things, that reaction will likely also be elicited by two new remixes of the portland duos song, from their 2011 long player shangri-la. legendary production duo justin strauss and bryan mette, aka whatever/whatever, completely rework the sound of >dystopia< on their version, reorienting it with heavy doses of funk. while the original rides atop buzzing synths, the whatever/whatever remix adds a thick bassline and shimmery keyboards that leap out like solar flares. on the flipside, uk-based emperor machine starts their dystopia remix with a dubby feel – every vocal echoing endlessly – and then u-turns into wholly a updated, yet classic, disco sound. the rhythms are sultry, slinking behind a deep, repeated, synthline, its a recipe for an unexpectedly smooth, subtly hypnotic, and utterly danceworthy song.

originally from time bandits >shooting love< shows perfectly mustangs musical obsession for italo, disco, early house & classic pop music. the remix package comes with an uplifting acid techno style remix from black strobe.

after a series of classically oriented 12 inches with deep debts owed to old school detroit and chicago vibes, remain & mlle caros release stands out as a thoroughly modern model of analog dancefloor ammunition. while >heat< and >rogue< dispense with homage and go for the jugular with darkside intensity, the remixes hand chosen by remain and caro open things up, revealing undiscovered dimensions to the music. holmar filipsson from thugfucker (life & death records) teams up with neurotic drum bands ulysses to transform >heat< into a mid-tempo disco chugger heavy on the drums and boogie bass. populette unleash a late night dancefloor bomb complete with hypnotic arpeggios for their corking refix of >rogue<.
