mount liberation unlimited s debut 12inch on junk yard connections, astro travelling life, has become one of the most in demand deep house releases of 2014. a year on, they finally deliver a follow-up, this time on superconscious records. all three tracks primarily succeed due to their blend of rough analogue elements, crusty drum machine hits, tape hiss, and so on and the kind of dreamy, stargazing chords and melodies that have always been a hall mark of classic deep house. its the detroit techno influenced polyphonic spree, all cymbal-heavy shuffle, stretched-out chords and funky synthesizers - that arguably stands out, though its a tough call given the high quality threshold throughout.

theyre young and tough, and especially wonderful too, easily one of the most compelling harmony soul groups to ever hail from the windy city! the sets a chicago soul gem from the early 70s, recorded with a laidback, slightly tripped-out vibe thats different than the tighter styles of other groups from the same scene, definitely righteous at points, with some of the superbad modes you might hear from an east coast lineup like the delfonics or soul generation, especially when they were trying to get a bit more conscious in their message. arrangements are great – handled by tom tom washington, eugene record, and cliff davis, very much at the best brunswick mode, but again with a deeper sort of vibe too. the title cuts a monster, and a very fitting follow-up to their earlier sly, slick, & wicked track – and the album features 2 versions (vocal and instrumental) of a cut called this is the lost generation, a very righteous soul groove with a heavy production tip.

robsoul release number 22 for joss moog and mister consistent just keeps rolling out the essential house flavours. ego is his latest collection of work and features four new originals from the frenchman, each with the sample rich touch that we have come to love. the diva licks of the title track and ep opener ego set the perfect funky vibe for the rest of the ep. raw wave sees us riding one, as the beach vibes flow, the keys stab and the chocolatey bassline melts. whos that ramps things up with its jackin action, skittish snare and cowbell, but counters with its smooth keys. a perfect combination. joss closes the party with an ode to a hero. nothing blurred here, just the utmost of respect.

it is no exaggeration to say that ultrastretch has accumulated an array of outstanding releases and artists since its creation in 2011. one knows that being as renown a representative of the underground music scene as sammy dee is, he can easily sign music from any established artist he would like, the so called ‘big names’, however, when we look at the past seven releases on ultrastretch, the agenda here seems to be another. what has become an apparent and admirable feature of this label/platform and of sammy dee himself is his clear support for new music from young and yet to be discovered talents. it is on that note that ultrastretch 08 brings you romanian artist crihan. hailing from a small town close to cluj, alin crihan moved to bucharest in 2009 to be more in touch with the underground scene and music in the capital as it poses more opportunities for him to grow and develop. from dj’ing in the most various clubs in his home country, his first steps into western europe as a dj came earlier last year at no less than the legendary robert johnson club alongside petre inspirescu in frankfurt. producing under his real name for the past four years, crihan’s release for ultrastretch brings two tracks, setting the listener into two very distinctive paths. the a side, * uelden* is a dance floor oriented track. the first words to come to mind are groove and rhythm, giving the track a somewhat funky feeling overall. the elements have been crafted carefully and therefore appropriately placed just where and when you need them. by simply starting the track with a bass line and shuffling hihats he slowly develops to a journey that not onlyventures further into groove and rhythm but also in mind grabbing harmonies with deep/airy sounding pads giving it a comforting sense of beauty and obscurity. the b side is called a doua dimensiune, literally translated from romanian it means the second dimension. doing justice to the title the track does generate the feeling of being in another dimension. it is a very deep affair into mind-altering soundscapes, very atmospheric and at times dark and obscure. attention to detail is apparent judging by the overlayering of elements featured in this track. a constant rolling base formed of water tapping ambient sounds give way to harmonies made up of strings and random noises on top.

second release for black angus records. dj soch s trip continues into the pulsing heart of house music. after the first release which explored the original forms of the sound of chicago, with this release he moves towards another declared love: 90 s new york underground house. everything is brought together by his original, personal touch and careful ear to the freshest sounds of our times. -street groove- is definitely influenced by the tracky sounds of the earliest masters at work, the most inspired todd terry and the most important releases for henry street records. a captivating sample, a drum machine roll and an entrancing bassline: pure house music! the remix by nicholas takes original elements and recomposes it transforming the whole into a persuasive and deep track without losing even a drop of groove. -kick & tom- is the rawest and most direct track in the ep. super funky techno, like a train without stops devastating the dance floor. dj soch is old school that meets new, there is no future without the past. black angus only for dj !

quickly following up the last, instant sell-out smashes, shir khan-s infamous * black jukebox* series hit us with the 13th edition.

pawas & schaffhäuser liefern hier einen lupenreinen slo-mo deep house-groover ab, der mit einem brillanten remix des holländers nuno dos santos (ehemals resident in amsterdams trouw) und einem funky-verspielten patrick zigon remix erscheint. *hunt* ist die erste kollaboration der langjährigen freunde pawas gupta und mathias schaffhäuser. alles begann mit pawas epischer instrumental version, welche mathias dazu inspirierte vocals dazuzumischen. dann bearbeiteten und produzierten beide die vocal version zusammen und gaben die vocals an den aufstrebenden kölner kompakt-star gregor schwellenbach weiter, der dann mit der rhodes darauf improvisierte. ein alter hausfreund von ware records, rudolfo irving (disco til you die), brachte schließlich die hedonistischen elemente des tracks auf ein neues level und beamte ihn auf den zeitgemäßen disco-tanzboden.
