top-notch & soulful tribalistic deep house biz....

early sounds collective is back with four stripped down house/techno tools. tip!

alcis three part series titled early beginnings draws to a close and firmly cements the young swiss producer as a house music star in the making. alcis first ever demo was sent to phil weeks at the start of 2013, and so impressed was the robsoul chief that he instantly signed all 10 tracks to the label. alci, robsoul and phil weeks are an ideal match, as this third installment shows once again, with his funky, looped, sample-based and heads-down jacking house beats aligning perfectly with both phils and the labels philosophy and output. its also clear to hear the influence of the classic french house sound & robsouls interpretation of it in alcis music. the first two volumes in the early beginnings series picked up support from mosca (radio 1 play), darren emerson, roberto rodriguez, round table knights, matthias vogt, dirty channels, catz n dogz, rolando, hot toddy and many more

with the tropical interlune lp, a wonderful package full of high-level soulful analog house grooves (reminding of early theo parrish / 3chairs stuff), rio padices purpose is to bring us into a journey to celebrate 70s atmospheres and sounds. far away from the common precepts of modern edm but not forgetting his dance roots, his efforts lead us to a concept of funky and organic cuts assembled in a wise perspective of his musical evolution.

the long overdue follow-up of early sounds 001! this time a solo project of the talented massimo di lena, delivering four original and hard-rocking analogue house/techno hybrids. tip!

more jacking beats from a young talent on robsoul.

early bird is a collaboration of the swiss dj and producer diego hostettler (well-known for his huge techno-productions on kanzleramt, damage, k20, u-turn etc.) and ray kajioka. a fresh and juicy package of two driving techno tracks by diego & ray and two fantastic remixes by joel mull and sterac alias steve rachmad.

leskin, massimo di lena, joseph russel and rio padice (aka the early sound collective) deliver four outstanding deep & raw house/techno cuts. of course, shitloads of records come out these days that fit the deep & raw house description, but this stuff just goes beyond. without falling back into cliche, their characteristic use of analog equipment takes you right back into the early days of hypnotic, raw & soulful machine music competing with the detroit/chicago cats from back in the day.

rhythm and melody, the beat and the bass - thats what proper club music is all about. and with current chihouse revivalists galore, its really hard to come up with something really true to the roots, and brilliantly fresh at the same time. recognition recordings, run steadily by jacek sienkiewicz, polands true visionary of contemporary club beats in a world of post-techno, passes its 30th release with this four-track marvel of an ep by one chino

warning! new young talent on robsoul recordings. jackin beat!

lakosa & io are third to grace the madtech roster with their dancefloor banger home early, which features remixes by west norwood cassette library and the 17 year old exceptionally talented experimental grime producer pedro 123. home early is a punchy house track weighted by bass and marching with the suave speed of 4/4 house. its sultry vocals and samples tease the determined beat that drops in and out developing a bold breakdown. the track sits nicely between house and uk bass, giving it the flexibility to sit within an array of styles in future sets and mixes. west norwood cassette librarys remix gives the original a disco tinge with the use of strings and vintage sounding samples. the vocal is scrunched and ricochets neatly off the carefully placed beats and samples. the pedro 123 remix gives the original a smack of grime and a refreshing sound. pedro stretches the vocal into a smooth echo that drifts over the top of his clipped punching bass line. a grime-tinged wobble and a bassy beat resonates beneath pedros impeccable percussive production.

amazing debut release of these talented guys from napels, italy. they deliver three classic yet fresh deep house/tracks that can easily compete with the best that early u.s. labels like kms or prescription had to offer back in the days. with their warm & lush chords & basslines and superb analog drum programming they showcase a deep understanding of what this music is about. very deep, warm, funky & mysterious release. tracks by leskin, rio padice and massimo di lena.

the first release on sighas own our circula sound imprint sees the hotflush artist shrug off the dubstep tag altogether with a 12 inch of dark dubbed out techno. marcel dettmanns remix of sighas own >early morning lights< sits on the a side. taking things deeper than one would typically expect, dettmann marries his own sound palette with that of the original perfectly. clocking in around the 130bpm mark, its mutating broken rhythms and throbbing bottom end will appeal to more adventurous dubstep heads as well as the techno purists. sighas eyes down old school tinged >over the edge< sits on the b side. clicks, claps and 909 hats roll over a layer of shifting dubbed out soundscapes and booming square bass.

its no secret that melbourne, australia have been on quite a savage tear as of late. melbourne is home to such folks as lewie day (aka tornado wallace), mic newman (aka fantastic man), francis inferno orchestra, weekend express, the tortoise, andy hart, and the rest of the fine folks at melbourne deepcast. for the 11th instalment on our undertones imprint, we are pleased to present a stunning four-tracker of proper, lo-slung melbourne deepness served up by a fresh new talent who simply goes by kitano. we are excited to host his debut release and hope youll join us in welcoming him to the fray!

vorabsingle zum 2010er-soloalbum des neuseel?ndischen musikers.
als s?nger der bats und bassist von the clean z?hlte robert scott zu den protagonisten der einst legend?ren indie-szene neuseelands. so ?berrascht es kaum, dass er f?r soloaktivit?ten stets wenig zeit fand, obwohl er flei?ig songs schrieb. einige von denen erscheinen 2010 auf einem soloalbum, die single pr?sentiert zwei lieder als vorgeschmack. >too early< ist ein eing?ngiger, kurzer und verzerrter popknaller, >the moon upstairs< eine hommage an das songwriting der 60er-jahre mit leicht psychedelischen gitarrenarrangements. das artwork des siebdruckcovers der single stammt von der berliner illustratorin julia guther.

classic house tunes revisited by mop

this sampler, first of two, holds three tracks from the classic >spelunking< ep, which was originally released on planet e and with which he solidified his name in the scene. track a2, land of the lost dance, is an unreleased track from that era. another fine example which shows that recloose is the don of mixing funk and techno. with this compilation we celebrate reclooses early works from the late 90s, early 00s. this material is often regarded as his best. the compilation includes his best music from that period, both released and unreleased.

in the spirit of exploring the influence of this material over the past decade of electronic and indie music production, phthalo has asked several artists who have said they were inspired by dntels >early works for me…< record to re-approach those songs with their own modern and varied takes on the source material. >early works, later versions<, a limited 12 inch record of new, updated remixes and variations on last years >early works for me…< album by several of jimmys current peers and modern contemporaries.

wild pitch style oldschool house.

back in 1998 this was probably just about the wrongest record you had ever heard … and it has to be said that not much has changed. forshaw has a knack of turning out ridiculously hard and mangled electro and techno tracks – but still managing to make them sound >poppy<. sometimes, as in the case of rockford for example, it is because he uses well recognisable (but unexpected) samples. but more often it is just because he manages to make tunes (no matter how hard) that make you stop gurning and start smiling.

first single from the forthcoming izmo album æearly night. izmo is a young frenchman born in 1984 in paris. he was discovered by harley&muscle a few years back when he tried to get in touch with them.. he started making music at the age of 15 years old , strongly influenced by the ambient and electronica music coming from uk and germany. as years passed by, his frequent holidays in englands midlands led him to discover various club scenes with the 4 to the floor spirit.. from hard stuff to funky and mellow music , izmo was soon found searching for a sound that was calling him... years passed by and izmo is now deep into house music where he finally found his roots in the 90s house music vibe from new jersey , chicago , detroit , england and france. may it be true garage or deep house, the groove, spirit and energy of this period has touched him deep inside and he is now a fierce defender of what he calls true school house music as opposed to old school or new school: i hate when people say that this sounds old school and that style sounds old or whatever...for me, a vibe is timeless ... izmo is also a deep techno head and all sorts of raw dance music.. watch out for his deep jacker and brawther aliases in the future... in summer 2007, izmo releases his first e.p. as a 12 inch on french label 9ts records, and gets a very good response, support and plays by legendary tony humphries... disguised as a tribute to smack productions , his where is eddie e.p. touched people from all different scenes, from deep house to uk garageà in 2008 , he will release his first full length album on little angel records, 14 tracks of strictly deep house music of different moods and atmospheres. izmo is thirsty and he will keep on trying to better his music for the pleasure of the real house heads. keep it underground ! support from laurent garnier, gorge, scope, osunlade, rocco, jay tripwire, dj rork, marlon d, dj dealer & more

after a decent break, while celebrating the 10th release, mojuba is back with a fresh and exciting new talent. we are speaking about tokyo resident called stereociti, a very gifted musician who devoted his heart to the music we love since 1994. his music is self-evidently high quality deep house with a touch of detroits spirit! the first two tracks of sterociti proving his sense for club rocking and touching emotional moments in music!

>after his very well acclaimed debut on orphanear with >jujuy&salta< and his impelling and chartbreaking remix for tocotronics latest 12 >imitationen<, pawel is back with >gabriel< on orphanear. both tracks have it in oneself to provide the autumn soundtrack for deep and dark house loving clubs all over the globe. the a-side with >gabriel< mixes classic house-strings with some xylophone and bell-sounds rather known from hamburgs scene around dial and smallville records. these elements built up in beautiful layers to culminate in a furious rather ironic break. the b-side with >early bird< begins with an airy beat that brings pawels 2004 vocalhouse lover >grab it< back to mind. after the softer intro the track mutates into a synthspiral which home has already been defined by pawels 12 >ceramic<. some abandoned industrial city in the north of the united states. a timeless record.<

following up the success of the two first early records releases, dedicated to covers, & played by all the big djs around the world, early rec are back with two danceable tracks designed for the dancefloors
