j.a.k.a.m is japanese artist takashige miyawaki, a long standing producer commonly found on crosspoint records. on this release for the ever intriguing malka tuti label miyawaki draws on a thrilling spread of influences to make a truly soul-stirring track. at times the vocals lean towards a middle eastern lilt while the saxophone burns with the fire of the post punk era. with monolithic drum hits, yearning violin and plenty more besides, wabi sabi is a many-headed beast of a track. moscoman takes the original and simmers it down to a more focused but no less exotic tribal house workout.

the second ep by control remote finally drops with 3 stunning cuts destined to become phuture classics in years to come. the first ep was a strong seller for the shop and provided the footwork for this second ep to drop. ‘music’ on the a side gyrates a house groove with a moody man nod of guidance. this is one sure fire hot jam! on the flip we have the divine acid groove of ‘fragment of a sermon’ kicking of proceedings whilst riding locked in groove. ‘give my luv’ closes the ep off with a low rider house slide that leans to left whilst moving you to the right! this second ep by control remote sets the standard for others to follow. hotness personified!

cadenzas head honcho luciano teams with house music legend david morales up for esperanza a long awaited release that will fire up the summertime. david and luciano composed the track together but then each one refined his own personal mix. lucianos flow latino mix is a long tribalistic ground moving crescendo with a sub-frequency dense kick and sparkling nuyorican flavoured percussions. the hand drums ensemble ride a magnetic bass provoking a state of hypermnesia slowly reaching a climax of celestial chords. this subtle spectral progression finally breaks down a feeling of positive trust and spiritual healing. david morales red zone mix is a lengthy dramatic ascension with a darker feeling. stretched textures are the background of a constellation of scattered percussions, over which fast paced hi-hats subliminally introduce evocative strings and arpeggios, as they were coming out, at last, as the hope from the pandoras box.

next up on aus music is the welcome return of a good friend and label regular - the ever ascendant marquis hawkes. having released 4 eps on aus thus far, he makes his return in the form of a blazing, floor-focused 2 track ep which sits neatly with previous outings on the label. ‘the basement is burning’ takes it’s name from a near-fateful experience stemming from an electrical fire in hawkes’ home which culminated in him and his family being evacuated from a 5th floor balcony. having ensured the safety of his family, he made a dash across berlin to make a 10am live show, a few days later with the power back on ‘the basement is burning’ was born. the title track kicks off with splashy, live drum samples that are armoured with electronic layers before a feel-good piano lick glides into the mix. bursting synths are introduced before ducking strings chords bring the track to an ecstatic conclusion. ‘tower block boogie’ then tumbles short funk samples through bold drums as a fervid sense of tension burns throughout.

ltd edition for rsd 2017

the beauty of one of those nights can be found in the blend of simplicity and functionality. both tunes are outlined by an almost brutal reduction to the core elements. carefully selected sounds that are arranged in a highly effective sequence of patterns - that is the definition of fabio papa s music. his long time experience as a live performer is reflected directly in his productions. it doesnt take a lot of elements to get a perfect groove he states, but without groove, there is no fire on the dancefloor. the record gets topped off by two powerful remixes by ander and the f.e.m. ensemble.

smile for a while has recently moved to berlin and calls for jana falcon, a local, emerging house music producer . -falling (again boy)- is an intricate fusion of garage and house textures, it s a sultry, catchy tune with stunning spoken-word vocals and a bed of fuzzy beats that give it a really contemporary gloss. things then go off in another direction with the brilliantly named, -contemplation of inadequacy-. this one is crafted on another hypnotic tip, drawing the listener in with another bevy of atmospheric vocals and a bassline that s pure fire. in -petrias house- jana goes for a more upfront house sound. simmering piano keys lend this one a sun-soaked flourish, precisely the tonic for the fast-approaching summer. the release closes with a thoroughly banging remix by we play house man, dynamodyse. a tune that s thoroughly engaging and is sure to get your head in

rsd 2017 picture disc re-issue of the original classic album from 1969.

nice price deal !!! a key milestone in the labels discography. the ep begins with a cool drifting taste of modulated pads, rhythmic guitar and simple drum work. highlighting a bit more of a funky disco groove, atlantis is a liquid soul jam for the ages. the beat picks up with count down to zero, as an uber progressive hypnotic loop track gets lost in the smooth key stabs. the tribal vibe picks up with dont look down, adding some more percussion, slow attack synth chords and crazy rhodes melodies. gabriel slows things down to a lazy dubbed-out house cut full of succulent strings, charismatic claps and middle-eastern harmonies. great for the late-night club slot or an introspective headphone listen, this solid ep is a sure fire success!

in soul intent’s own words: “i wanted the make an album that had continuity but also showed all the vibes and styles i m into as a producer, dj and general lover of this music. hopefully it’s an album of substance and people enjoy the journey.”

vincenzo needs little introduction - the veteran producer and dj has been a fixture on the scene for years, releasing his distinctive brand of classy deep and techy house on a number of key labels. returning to poker flat, he teams up with the mega talented cari golden for this killer three track ep. cari hails from la, an accomplished singer & songwriter and a part of band narcotourist. she lends her skills to never go back a lush yet edgy deep bomb built around slinky groove shot through with vincenzos trademark drama and tension. cari brings the track to the next level with her vocals - both seductive and cautionary. smash tv (holger zilske and kai preussner) bring a sick remix to the table with their version - heading to deeper territory and seemingly primed for the after hours vibe. next up is thats the way an instrumental that sees vincenzo revel in some old school chord progressions and tension / release dynamics to make a sure-fire floor weapon.
