the unique partnership is the brainchild of local dance music aficionado dj vidis. he teamed up with top lithuanian producer mario basanov in 2007 to form the most influential local production combo and to deliver what could be the freshest sounding and truly adventurous house music in lithuania and around. vidis and marios first vocal track and video >i ll be gone< featuring young but much promising lithuanian singer and songwriter jazzu became national phenomena on its own right. hitting number one in radio charts, not leaving mtv baltic top 20 for half a year, and becoming the most blogged and youtubed lithuanian music video ever says it all. and the single featuring british songstress kathy diamond as well as vaguely provoking black and white video cemented their reputation as local institution and the purveyors of top quality deep sounds. with duos debut album released december 2010 on their own silence music to big commercial success as well as a few singles being lined-up for early 2011 on top notch international labels like japanese endless flight, australian future classic, german best works, and british crosstwonrebels also remix work commissioned from soul clap, john talabot, andre lodemann, marcus worgull, and softwar the future looks bright and bold.

here at bearfunk hq we firmly believe in perseverance. we keep asking questions until we get the right answer and with 6ft bear by our side the answer is usually yes. we kept asking ilija rudman to get in the studio and write us a killer lp but being the busy bee that he is it was hard for him to take the time out. we kept asking until he eventually caved in and went underground to record his first lp, >the reveal<. ilija is a devoted and passionate man when it comes to music. one of his prerequisites for recording an lp was that the recordings had to be made with the same techniques and equipment that inspired him to make music in the first place. so ilija hooked up with one of his studio mentors and got his dream line-up of synthesizers, roland jupiter 4 & 8, minimoog, roland sh2, juno 60 and his dream drum machines linn and oberheim dmx. these analogue machines fire up to create a warm and authentic vibe across the whole lp. we are reminded here that machines do have soul if used properly. we start proceedings with the wigged out boogie of >inspectors drive< which might be a little nod in the direction of wally badarous classic chief in< have all the ingredients of dj friendly hits. the lp reveals all the influences that ilija has experienced and it shows the talent that runs inside him as he is able to make such an amazingly retro lp sound like something from the future. we are sure in years to come this lp could become as important as the influences that inspired mr. rudman to make it.

class71 return to the constantly in-form four:twenty following the diamond door/seaphone 12 debut which won fans of just about every decent house dj around, and what a follow up it is! alba adriatica is a 13 minute excursion in to detroit flavoured house and is as subtle as it is memorable. a rounded bassline provides the movement while delicate, dubby fx create a hypnotic vibe which underpins a blissful live saxophone and rising keys. the summer is not over yet. always being attentive to djs needs, four:twenty have also included a dub for the saxo-phobes and if that wasnt enough, they bring in the legendary move d for further mixes. with a back catalogue which includes celebrated labels such as modern love, uzuri, city centre offices and liebe*detail, move d is the toast of underground house music and has delivered a vocal and dub mix of impeccable standards. utilising the fm bass and bringing the chords up in the mix, mr. d (as nobody calls him) creates a densely layed percussive dub mix which provides a perfect kickless track for creative djing while his vox mix adds both kick and some sparse but beautiful vocal touches. this is another winner from a label which continually searches out fresh talent and is more than worthy of your attention
