wiederauflage als vinyl-edition! von künstler willie mitchell 1971 für hi-records unter vertrag genommen, entwickelte sich syl johnson neben al green und ann peebles zu einem der erfolgreichsten soul-künstler des labels. -total explosion- ist sein populärstes solo-album und enthält den größten hit -take me to the river-. dieses stück gibt es auch in einer interpretation von al green, jedoch ist syl johnsons version deutlich langsamer eingespielt, so dass diese eine gänzlich andere wirkung entfaltet. syl johnsons tochter ist die r&b-sängerin syleena johnson, die er bis heute künstlerisch berät und begleitet.

syl johnsons karriere nahm etliche wendungen. zunächst verstand sich sylvester thompson als blues-sänger und tourte mit legenden wie howlin wolf durch die staaten. erst später - durch die entdeckung von hi-records - nahm er sich der soul musik und des pseudonyms syl johnson an, mit dem er weltberühmt werden sollte

o.v. wrights album -into something- wurde von hi-records qualitativ so hoch eingeschätzt, dass man den künstler mit den besten voraussetzungen für die aufnahmen ausstattete: memphis horns and strings bilden die backing-band, ein gewisser james brown spielt piano, und die besten background-sänger aus den eigenen studios wurden verpflichtet. o.v. wright, der ja zuvor schon mit al green und ann peebles aufgenommen hatte, nutze die gunst der stunde und produzierte dieses kleine soul-juwel und überzeugt zudem mit seinem einzigartigen gesang.

house shoes is proud to present the first-ever physical release of the instrumental version of danny browns hot soup, his debut album released in 2008 prior to the release of the hybrid. featuring production by quelle chris, nick speed, and danny brown himself, hot soup immediately propelled danny brown into hip-hops national consciousness and solidifed him as one of detroit’s most electrifying live performers.

jerry williams jr. alias swamp dogg ist ein echter exzentriker unter den soul-legenden. in dem wissen, dass eine außergewöhnliche biographie die halbe miete ist, verlieh er sich nivht nur seinen spitznamen, sondern behauptete zeitlebens er habe nie die schule besucht (stimmt nicht!) und sei eines morgens aufgewacht und habe gewusst, er sei ein -musikalisches genie- (kommt schon eher hin). jedenfalls arbeitete er als produzent, songwriter und studio-musiker für andere soul-musiker, bevor er sich eigenen songs widmete. und obwohl musik-kritiker vergleiche zu curtis mayfield und quincy jones bemühten, war ihm der große erfolg doch nie beschieden. dazu war er dann doch eine nummer zu abgehoben.

the sexiest dj duo on wheels steers their way back into the hearts of house music fans everywhere with -what you believe,- a 2-track vinyl-only ep. this sixth installment shows a different side of the duo... here, in contrast to their past vocal collaborations with corbu, gry and bob moses, they opt for a pair of lush dancefloor instrumentals, delivering their most dj-friendly package to date.

berlin techno was the big thing over the last years, but you might know that in german cites like hamburg and munich there is a huge growing experimental house scene. hamburgs diynamic records crew or munich artists such as sascha sibler (innervisions) or cocolores (exploited) are equally well respected as the big names from berlin. one of the fresh new labels is toy tonics from munich and the raising stars of the labels are rhode & brown.
