ben jacobs aka crackazat first made a name for himself when he was still living in bristol and released on ep on the city s futureboogie label, which has also signed music from the likes of julio bashmore, crazy p and outboxx. early in his career crackazat was also the official warm up act for an at the time up and coming artist called floating points, who now needs no introduction as one of the world s leading electronic music producers. moving to sweden shortly after the futureboogie release, crackazat made contact with the local talk owners mad mats and tooli, and after a couple of single/ep releases signed his debut solo album crescendo. the last couple of years crackazat has had an explosion of global popularity, which has led to playing gigs all over the world, and releasing tracks and remixes on labels ranging from josh wink s ovum, joey negro s z records and eureka in japan. classically trained with a strong jazz influence, crackazat has a distinctively individual sound that fuses funk with soulful vocals and the electronic bass music associated with his former home of bristol. eloquent and intelligent, rainbow fantasia is a masterpiece that showcases one of electronic music s most exciting talents.

crackazat is back on local talk! this fall he s about to release his second album on local talk, -rainbow fantasia- and as a little taster we re proud to present this 12-... proton blue and called my name got the crackazat signature house sound, melodic, jazzy and of course very catchy. but it wouldn t be crackazat unless he did his own little spin on those tracks either, right? these two remixes shows why ben is a wizard when it comes to soulful chords on a blaze tip. this is for each and everyone out there that enjoys real music.

nycs finest dj spinna comes through on local talk with an epic release that might surprise those of you expecting a more traditional soulful house workout ! this time spinna went out of his comfort zone with a deep warehouse journey that works equally well in dark european house clubs or at the shelter in nyc. tb or not tb got that perfect blend of space darkness, analogue synths and that old school house thump. initially it s quite raw and simplistic but the true magic of this track begins halfway in (be patient!). if there ever was a journey track, this is the one! but we re not done, on the flip spinna also comes through with a warm and melodic deep house jam destined for those very last small hours. oh btw...that analogue bassline got that extra. thang!

talk about the legends of house and kenny dope gonzalez holds one of the undisputed seats in the gallery. since breaking out of brooklyn as new york house began to dominate the 1990s the dope man rose to the very top with masters at work, gaining a peerless reputation as beatmaker, producer and dj. originally brought to strictly rhythm as a teenager by todd terry, he became one of the key producers in forging the strictly sound through releases by the untouchables and total kaos, and his work with louie vega on the sole fusion and hardrive projects. back home at strictly with a fresh new production (for the first time since 1999), kenny teams up with another legend of house, roland clark (aka south st player) for talk dirty, a rumbustious, risque excursion that sees clark delivering one of his trademark monologues over kenny s perfect beats. it s a fitting sound for the 900 number the landmark nine hundredth single released on strictly rhythm

cuthead have, over the last few years released all kinds of gritty house and hip hop beats but normally through his friends over at uncanny valley. we re now overjoyed to offer you his first ep on local talk and honestly, it s everything we could ve hoped for. spread out over four tracks you get a real dirty basement jam (fuck that shit), a sample friendly house nugget (get down) and a melodic 4/4 tune that sounds like if cuthead and our old friend hnny hooked up in the studio together it got that lil sweet twist we all love! to round off the ep we also included something extra special for the beat heads, a jazzy instrumental hip hop number (what can i say). a pretty good debut on local talk if you ask us

vinyl comes in a vacuum packed transparent sleeve cycle ep is the first public transmission from w.t.r, setting the syntax for subsequent label releases to come, cycle ep comes offered as a unique handmade vacuum packaged production, praising the records functionality as well as a utility for the worlds need to dance. the eponymous title track cycle brings the listener gale force into a tunnel, packed dense with repetitive computer servers, crashing through a thrum of gated rim shots and acid splashed cartoonish sequences, don’t be disturbed by the repetitive glitch of parasites rising slowly inside your ears. the alternatively named title chain guides the listener into an immersive walloping ravy realm, satisfying the desire for the motorik rhythmic. a slick, sensual and sublime introduction into the world of reless. and no need to introduce you to shlømo, a rising darkstar in french techno scene who s take on cycle pulls apart the harsh dystopian factory sounds cultivated in the original track, exploring a more organic and hazy constitution, retaining the stern demand for the listeners attention, while exploring the original records ability to make people communicate within any space and species, at any time of the night or day...

hailing from the small town of stroud, south west england, marcel lune has been quickly building his reputation as one of the hottest new talents in the uk bass music scene. having discovered an 808 in his parents attic at a young age, it quickly became one his favourite toys and set him off on a musical voyage which is beginning to gather momentum. having already released a string of releases including a full album for studio rockers last year, this release with local talk is a new chapter in the ever growing marcel lune saga. this debut for local talk is nothing short of brilliance. an ep that sits somewhere between the early floating points days and local talk s very own crackazat jamming with harvey sutherland. from the opening track sketches marcel brings broken house rhythms, piano chords and dancing acid lines in a glorius way. the clever vocal arrangement on eat good takes no prisoners and on the flip crazy love , another vocal track, marcel slows things down a bit together with vocalist bluesz. the ep ends with soul music, upping the energy level slightly with its snappy, jazz-influenced beats and dancing synth lines. a beautiful and fitting addition to the ever expanding local talk catalogue.

fox tooth was one of the big releases of 2015 on local talk. if you haven t heard it you probably dont remember 2015 at all! all we did was play fox tooth. now, a year later we re proud to present the fox tooth remixes. karizma aka kaytronik gets straight to the point, strips down the original and tensely builds the track slowly, keeping the groove on the bone. on the flip, peacy offers a remix with all the elements of the original, perfectly combined with a few tricks of his own, in a stunning new combination, it sure impresses.

repress 2016 !! last year stockholm based producer hnny provided us one of the biggest releases on local talk to date. now he’s back with a follow up, yearning, a straight up jackin’ house track to prove he’s not just one trick pony. dirtytwo got lot’s of music planned for 2013 on local talk. first up is a remix of hnny’s ”for the very first time”. this particular version started out as a secret weapon which they guys used in the liveset. mats & tooli heard it and decided that their version had to be released. simply put, the dirtytwo midas touch version is pure gold.

releasing an album is a daunting task, especially in dance music. you got to keep it fresh and exciting from the very beginning until the last track, not sticking to one tempo, make tracks that work both at home and in the club and ultimately tell a story with your music. alexander lay-far knows a thing or two about this, having his debut album so many ways out back in 2013. the thing with lay-far and a big reason why we ve always had a soft spot for him is his way of incorporating a certain magic in the tracks that leaves you on an uplifting and optimistic note. therefore we re really excited to release his second album, how i communicate, on local talk. how i communicate is a two part vinyl release which we hope will come as a fresh breeze in these days where so much dance music simply lacks the actual musical aspect or the organic approach. like most producers and djs that are influenced by soul, disco, jazz and the blacker side of electronic dance music its all about the actual tune . listening (or dancing) through this album we hope you ll find your special tune (or tunes!) that hopefully will bring joy to your ears. to his aid lay-far has invited an impressive cast of collaborators such as ashley beedle & darren morris, restless soul, sean mccabe & mark de clive-lowe to give the tracks that little extra something under the watchful eye of lay-far himself. or as lay-far describes it himself the album is about the music as the universal language, the ultimate means of communication, bringing people of the world together. part 2 will be released in the new year...

phase insane is proud to present el carton, the first collaboration between the madrilenians gale talk andunkle fon. this massive work will not leave anybody indifferent, as it is really unusual having music as original as the one they bring us. gale talk and unkle fon bring us two huge dark techno tracks produced over really deep melodic and groovy elements. these songs generate a massive effect in the dance floor as they are based in very hypnotic sounds which make listeners get into the groove from the very first moment. if this looks great, it becomes better when you listen the fantastic remix of el carton produced by the brooklyn based duo loud neighbor.

in 2011 when mad mats and tooli went to sonar festival in barcelona they met ludovic llorca aka art of tones outside a club. little did they know back then that two years later on they would release a 12 inch together. the same thing ep opens with the title track and kicks pretty damn sweet with its strong vocal, the guitar, bass and rhodes jamming on top of a tight groove, there is also a dub version included on the b-side. last but not least, the great sgatmi is a jazzy and bumpy house take with lots of samples perfectly balanced. all in all, classic art of tones material and the work of a producer firing on all cylinders.

purple velvet is chris james and lee dearn, two purveyors of deep and sensuous house music since forming in late 2011. having gotten to know each other at various late night music sessions, the pair have increasingly honed their own house sound that is as suited to the dark consines of a club as it is the sunnier vibes of an outdoor terrace. sparks fly is gritty, dirty yet soulful at the same time. desinitely the work of a duo with a promising production knack. on the slip back on on the boulevard featuring lisa d on saxophone and breathin are two late night drive jams, emotive and super lush. an ep to dance to, that moves your mind and your feet. deep music from the soul.

next up on local talk we got a raw peak hour jam from liverpool producer dale howard (lost my dog, large, morris/audio, off rec). there is nothing light or fluffy about these tracks, its just dirty straight up house music with a dark 90s basement feel. for the main track we actually chose the dub version of throwback over of the original mix. we just thought this version was soooo freakin raw even though its more stripped than the original version. you’ll see what we mean when you drop it in the club! the second track in out goes along the same house theories as throwback with jackin beats and deep chords that will do wonders in any authentic house basement. all in all, a might fine release of classic local talk house music. enjoy!

local talk is proud to present a release featuring clemens kahlcke aka clé, also known as 1/2 of märtini brös. a true veteran in the electronic dance music scene with several releases on established labels, including poker flat, dessous and liebe*detail. the title track the jam is a classic deep house track, cleverly layered with elements that builds the track gradually, giving it real drive and purpose. dirtytwo is on a roll and after remixing hnny last month the dynamic duo continues to make house magic, their take on the original is another winner. the sharp beats, shuffly hihats, short staccato strings rips the track to dramatic effect and a guaranteed weapon in any djs set. local talk is talking to you!

new leng signing auf togo are the combination of clement cachot-coulom from the fabulous penetrators and sasa crnobrnja, one half of in flagranti. their combined sound is one of vintage recording equipment and instruments coupled with tweaks and blends from the modern studio. this new 12 inch for leng draws on all their knowledge of the past and of the current club scene, effortlessly gliding through deep, warm analogue sounds and tougher studio techniques. both tracks have guitar work that reminisces of a late 60s west coast scene laid over strong bass lines and beats giving the perfect mix of home listening fuzz and a late night dance floor.
