martin lewis, the insane house kid from berlin is breaking bad with his new and massive “rewind ep” on freebase records. with his first strike “believer” he delivers a flat footed house banger with a grumpy bassline, flavoured with an hypnotizing vocal sample. the second track “ breaking bad”, a genuine groove tool, is also influenced by martins garage credo. sublime melody riffs are competing with a wiggling bassline. tuff city kids, aka gerd janson and phillip lauer come up with two mind- boggling remixes of “believer”. at the “acid remix” they take out their breaky 90s acid drumset. this one is dry, jacking and sophisticatedly tribal. the “tuff city kids remix” starts with desert- dry acid elements which grow up to an uplifting acid soundwall. a true “jack in the box”.

these tracks are fairly special in our opinion and we are very honoured to be releasing them as the first optimo music disco plate.noo are daze dasen (aka plastique de reve) and sami liuski (aka bangkok impact / putsch 79). this is a double a side 12inch single (plus a digital bonus track that we couldnt fit on the 12inch and still have maximum pressing volume). built out of imaginative sampling combined with analogue hardware, these tracks are phenomenally produced, lush disco string fuelled epics that fully work their magic in a club setting. this is modern disco, most definitely not nu disco.

luckily there werent any of the anticipated refund claims for the first two chapters of >if this is house i want my money back<. so we finally dared to compile number three. the concept of the compilation is pretty simple: we ask friends, pv regulars, and other good looking producers, who are famous for dancing around the edges of the genre, for an exclusive track, all of which we put together on one neat compact disc. this time the bill reaches from hot shot producer mano le tough (who celebrated his permanent vacation debut on vol. 2 of this series), maeve label buddy the drifter, the swedish house mafia in form of house dandy axel boman and edit ramajam hnny, rising star lake people, long time vacationer bostro pesopeo (together with local munich dj san quentin) and sizzling newcomer boska to the jack of all trades willie burns, fellow nyc resident octo octa, berlin-based melody masters kim brown, the neukölln acid kingpins achterbahn d’ amour (aka iron curtis & edit piafra) as well as hotflush and we play house regular locked groove. each and everyone of the participants are more than convincing in what they are doing and although they have different perspectives on the long runner house music, the tracks come together in sweet harmony on this compilation
