after releasing three eps in 2014 to great feedbacks such as standing up house music label, this january 2015 sound of vast is about to hit its 4th release with an even greater selection and range of house music. this new ep has a very unique sound, which is the result of sierra sam and pascal hetzel - two of berlins most talented music producers - collaborating to make something a bit different from their usual style. they wanted to make something dirty but organic.

as a member of parisian band club cheval, a solo dj and as one part of the notorious bromance records unit, sam tiba escapes on his own with the release of his samuel ep this september. with musical influences coming from the american ghetto underground, from miami to baltimore, sam continues to push forward as an intriguing musician with his sensual and dreamlike productions.

fantastic voyages new series, soul city, explores the music being produced in key centres in the early 1960s, when r&b was evolving into the style that was soon widely referred to as soul. having kicked off the series in detroit, we now turn our attention to the big apple. special backstock

mole city is not in the tradition or deviating from the tradition – it is the tradition. after two decades of launching drums, guitars and pianos through the shifting interzones between harmony and chaos (moonlighting along the way with the likes of sleater-kinney, wild flag, elliott smith, built to spill and a long list of others), quasi are a genre of their own - they write songs in the style of quasi, and mole city is the quasi song book: parlour sing-alongs for the last century.
now in their 20th year as a band, and a two-piece once again, sam coomes and janet weis hand-deliver the double album/liberation cookbook/encyclopedia of kicking ass, mole city, to those of us who still care about well-built, homemade objects crafted with integrity, spirit, fire, and skill.
pressing on double 180 gram heavyweight virgin vinyl, housed in gatefold sleeve with mp3 download code included.

as apple pips continues to explore its opening mantra of echo, depth, swing and bass within the duplicitous realms of modern electronica, it welcomes to the fold two long-standing friends of the label and in turn sheds light on their own fresh avenues within house music. you might already know lrusse as id or behling, commonly found kicking up the dust alongside sam baobinga simpson in all manner of styles and tempos, while bleecker has an accomplished back-story in dubstep as wedge & through his own if symptoms persist imprint. in their new venture both producers fuse their dancefloor inclinations with more searching, experimental textures and tones, placing crafty sound design on a level pegging with the more immediate tropes of groove and presence.

sam cooke, inventor and true king of soul, recorded >mr. soul< in the same year as >night beat< (movlp163), and seems to be its more adult counterpart, with soulful ballads taking up most of the album.
and now, for the first time in over thirty years, music on vinyl is re-issuing >mr. soul< on 180 grams audiophile vinyl with remastered audio.

too late for this years christmas festivities, but hopefully still an acceptable gift for vinyl enthusiasts: two previously digital-only tracks from the running back(catalogue) on one split-10inch-plate. todd terjes picturesque ambient version of ragyshs antagonist snooze 4 love is backed up by jack plugs (alias chris bishop) supernatural (disco) dub of son of sams 1984 electro punk punch nature makes a mistake. two for one, one for all and 500 copies for the world.

the second of two eps, this one featuring seiji and zed bias remixes. skream literally doesnt rest. quite clearly the south london dj and producer loves what he does, and what he does involves constantly challenging the ever changing musical landscape before him. the last 18 months has seen skream release two highly anticipated albums – his second solo album >outside the box< released on tempa in august last year and magnetic mans debut album, which sees him partnered alongside fellow dubstep pioneers benga and artwork.
strong radio support from radio 1 (daytime and specialist) and 1xtra (shy fx remix placed on a-list on april 8), confirmed plays of the music video on mtv dance, nme tv, the box and channel aka, and dj support from benji b, laurent garnier, brackles, ez, ramadanman/pearson sound, annie mac, zane lowe, dj hype + more

rising star chamboche (sam williams) turns out his 3rd release on under the shade. heading up the a side is a bumping old school remix from ny dream team runaway, whilst the original is a slow building rumbler, full of tension in all the right places. on the flip >the show must go on< gets a locked groove with the a huge baseline whilst remixer de jour moscow (matt waites) goes epic!
support from the revenge, tensnake, mugwump ...

the needle-drop fuzz that cues sam amidon s fourth solo album of songs, i see the sign, raises the curtain on a world of little theatres, foretelling of an aural gut-grip that is fully human and wholly natural. amidons intuitive and often radical reworkings of age-old secular ballads, gospel, folk songs, and hymns render familiar characters new through his direction, vision, vocals, banjo, guitar, and stellar contributions from fellow musicians.

sam mccarthy, camdens newest and most exciting singer songwriter, stands out from the crowd by staying away from any scene or sound you would expect from his north london home. as you can probably tell from this debut single, cherrytree - a countryesque ode to young love - sams songs are classicly written and drawn from many influences other than his contemporaries.

aka jules dent & sam woodford who both hail from the isle of wight, travolta fever was featured on pete tongs bedroom bedlam in his fasttrax show on his website where it won head and shoulders from the rest. the track was then luckily snapped up by groove baby and remixes were quickly called upon from dj ellroy, defunct! and dj denise (mizumo music) and now its gaining more and more support from the electro / electroclash djs i.e jaymo, kissy sellout, calvertron, micky slim, twocker, will bailey, kid kenobi etc

million dan is the man of the moment. with his killer album on the streets he is quite rightly regarded as the top uk mc right now. this little 7 inch is not as cheeky as it sounds. sam webster (aka sloth from headcount records) was working on some admin with the million dappa records team and when he heard the scream out original track he was really into it, but felt it could do with a re-rub that brought the energy out of million dans vocal delivery.
