100% dynamite explores the links between reggae, jazz, funk and soul. the album is jam-packed with reggae tunes that have crossed-over and become cult dancefloor hits in clubland such as >greedy g<, >rocksteady< and >granny scratch scratch<. fourteen tracks of music that show the influence that american jazz, funk and soul music has had on jamaican reggae. the proximity of the west indies to the usa meant that many jamaican musicians would continue to be influenced by american styles of music whilst at the same time continuing to define new styles of their own such as ska, rocksteady and dub.

after making a great impression with its first ep, giant records serves up a second hot helping of house music from boss man grant dell, complete with fresh remixes by scottish techno stalwarts silicone soul. dell, also known as chicago transit authority, has been doing his do for 25 years now. as a dj he is at home in clubs in ibiza and barcelona as well as around the rest of europe, and is someone who always prefers to push his own brand of widely infused and influenced music than his own profile. once again here he comes up trumps with the emotive, glowing house cut ‘in your mind’. with a neat bassline and mid tempo house drums, subtle but effective synth smears add warmth and colour to the groove, whilst soul fuelled vocals add a real sense of personality. this is sure to get people grooving at any hour and comes with grant’s own space echo remix. as the title suggests it’s a more dubby and reverb rich affair with cosmic signifiers and sci-fi vibes pervading from start to finish. silicone soul need little introduction having been at the heart of real deep house and techno for decades on the soma label. their first remix is a darkroom dub - named after their own label - and is a seductively slo-mo and lazily unfolding house cut with languid synths that really suck you in. their lush hypnohouse mix is then a twinkling, late night bit of melodically rich deep house with starry skies twinkling above sombre chords. this is a patiently served but hugely alluring ep that is stuffed with plenty of tender feeling. one again then, both grant and giant have come up with the goods.

now four releases in, razor-n-tape reserve continues to deliver the deepness with this ep from the netherlands junktion. although a relative upstart on the scene, junktion has been getting some serious heads nodding lately with releases on sleazy beats and outplay, and the hot & bothered ep continues to define his dusty and organic sound. from the summery ease of the title track, to the fresh take on the oft-sampled i m wishin to the discofied chugger fling cleaning followed by the slow-burning visions of you, this ep is a beautiful listen from beginning to end. and the kids are gonna dig it too.

the first musical scale on apiafo leans towards raw funk with a sound similar to the famous 70s bands, l orchestre poly rythmo de cotonou and el rego. funk, is the skeletal structure of this record, and provided the opportunity for peter to invite his uncle, roger damawuzan - the famous pioneer of the 70s soul scene – on two tracks. their collaboration on *pas contente* is a highlight on this 100% analog album. apiafo was entirely recorded, mixed and mastered with old tapes and vintage instruments.

chris “bam bam” westbrook is one of the unsung heroes of chicago house. his westbrook label was responsible for releasing a slew of quality records from artists like armando & mike dunn as well as his own productions. one record that mysteriously never officially came out on the label was “hot spot” from 1987, never making it past white label stage. here, for the very first time, “hot spot” finally gets a full release boasting all 4 alternate mixes of the track by the man himself. suggestive lyrics, chattering drum machine rhythms and uplifting pianos in the classic raw chicago style are what makes “hot spot” a special re-issue. harking back to a headier time, the record still slams hard today and shows contemporary producers how house music should really be done. a long lost, un-released nugget from the old school, re-mastered from the original dat and officially released for the first time with original westbrook label artwork in conjunction with bam bam / westbrook records, chicago usa.

hot creations call upon viva boss steve lawler for their next release, rounding 2014 off with a bang - an amazing year for the leading label. with such a widespread knowledge of music and the industry, here lawler gives us a musical education. house record is a dose of old school 80s house injected with a modern twist with city nights following suit on the b-side. there is no doubt both tracks will dominate the dance floor at peak time, capturing each heart with their infectious bouncing bass-lines, pacey percussions and all round feel good energy. this is proving to be a huge release for hot creations and steve, featuring heavily in jamie, richy, lee and steves sets… this is seriously hot!

metropolis- is it an actual city or a digital fantasy a construct formed inside a synthetic brain? either way this is the soundtrack to a city that exists somewhere. a place that comes alive at nightfall and breathes artificial light until dawn. where millions of human threads interweave, and a machine conciousness drifts by on the periphery, searching for an intimate connection. limited pressing.

ltd nice price action !! >give it to me hot< is a 4-track ep that pays tribute to one of the hottest, raunchiest (but sadly short-lived) funk/punk groups from the early 80s, sexual harrassment.
sexual harrassment was started by radio dj lynn tolliver whilst he was working at mca records, and the cleveland-based group had a gold single on the heat/montage label. their rarer 6-track album from 1983 has become a collectors item. to do their tracks justice, we asked modern day artists who are synonymous with a sex-driven funk attitude to either cover or reinterpret the originals.

love club was an obscure one off project fronted by jay -mixin- dixon, a dj with a long history at nycs kiss fm where he played deep house and garage on the stations legendary master-mix show in the early 90s. the record also features a mystery, uncredited female vocalist assisted by some top shelf studio personnel manning the boards.

mallorcas dakpa has been on a roll since amam released his debut ep last fall. he has contributed to several compilations, including amams own hand out series, kina music s fade to k pt. 3 and wizz vinyl s sonar sampler 2014, plus eps for labels like district raw and serial number 849. but amam gets the honor of issuing his first own vinyl release, the distres ep. the opening title track is an exercise in jacking minimalism, vibrant tech house with just the essentials, but more than enough to get the floor moving. then, ademus gets into a slightly more colorful groove, with tropical percussive interplay and some whooping voice for a humanistic accent (is that brigitte bardot?). on the flip, virgo gives a modern update to the frenzy of acid house. the title alone brings virgo four to mind. on that note, this one is an effective tool for warping minds and evoking spastic dance moves. finally, the dependable gaetano vinci a.k.a. hooved reinterprets ademus with a heavy dose of melodic funk and symphonic washes, making the track into an entirely new creation.

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.
