just dixon style

oneoffs volume 3 offers just like the previous volume four new cuts from four different producers. first up we got swedish producer jonas rathsman and *yes i am*, a lush deep house track that is both heartfelt and sublime. let it breathe on a large sound system for maximum effect! ending the a-side is duo twinpeaks funk-fuelled ride *not that tech house - dj tool dropped by paris hilton you were searching for*. a track that would fit right into any peak time set, even by paris hilton. want from pixel82 is a punchy track with its scattered synth chords, jerky hats and a thick groove followed by *life is a gamble* where jesse futerman takes us on a soul inspired journey of deft sample manipulation

what we feel for max graef might just be our biggest man-crush ever. we came across his music through his own label box aus holz and were just as stoked as he is to have him as our second release.

since day one, radiq has been showing an affinity for the afro-centric funkiness and carefully-honed sound design of modern days minimal music. as in many of his previous tracks, all six songs of >vida noir< has this certain kind of unyielding quality - long, hypnotic grooves with muted kick drum set the stage for more emancipated experiments in texture and sound design. on >a long hot summer break<, for example, the effect is utterly obvious as kicking its ass into gear with syncopated drums and strain of warm chords before animated vocal sample slips in like fingerprint. while deeply seductive interplay of those chugging percussion gives way to delighted horn of >a-dieu<, warm chord and acoustic guitar of >calling< is perfect example for radiq’s masterful sound and texture. >machine codes modified< has rather restrained structure for him, but tightly woven drums speaks eloquently about its carefully arranged funkiness and dance floor functionality. despite their repetitiveness, its surprising how well these productions forming cohesive solidarity as an album. presumably, it owes a lot to wide tonal vocabulary which is radiqs hallmark - these tracks has something concentrated, vivid qualities. this album sits just at the edge of the dance floor, but also performs its exceptional strength on intense home listening. dusky synth and truncated surge of bass of >vida noir< constructing something dark, before closing this album with modulated afro-acoustic guitar and deep falsetto voice (by the producer himself) of >rondo<. this album offers up an engaging and comprehensive amalgamation from the inquisitive sound by the maestro

it is jam citys turn to deliver a batch of sweaty, streamlined dancefloor weapons on the 6th installment of the club constructions series. the minimalism and intensity of jersey club music remains a huge influence on the whole night slugs camp, and while jerseys impact can be felt across the cc series, jam city channels those devastating ghostly kick drums like none other. continuing on from where he left off with club favourites *the courts* the *how we relate to the body*, jam drops 5 lean and intense drum workouts build from scrap metal and primed for warehouse use. they move between thudding midrange persistence and just-sub-and-air minimalism, framed by jammed drum machine rhythms and splashes of re-sampled colour. jam decorates these sturdy and well-deployed undercarriages with silvery detail, percussion fragments, broken talkboxes, whispered vox and simple, beautiful chords.

when irr track hound ada goes sniffing around the corners in cologne, she means business. one can imagine her happy panting when she learned that she just intercepted unbelievably huge and simultaniously unreleased material from matt karmil. here is the result of this strange event. matt karmil is letting us all inhale his scent.

ddsr005 comes from the new york city based newcomer edgar m. a house producer by trade, this is edgar ms debut release but it doesnt show, demonstrating an ear for sound aesthetics and dynamics that immediately caught the attention of deep down slam. his track >oscillate< is a little masterpiece, rich with musicality and vintage sounding production techniques that are reminiscent of early strictly rhythm. this ep sounds just like it came straight out of 1991 and was entirely produced on vintage hardware/analog based equipment. to complement this release we have zurich based house producer donato capozzi on the remix duties who delivers a great dub version of >that strut<. this is a release for the lovers and vintage sounding house diggers out there, ny touch guaranteed!

french producer kool vibes returns with a third offering on his own self titled label, continuing to mine that sound classically rooted in the early 90s east coast swing of new york and new jersey. vibes abound on > u got me< with the titular vocal hook leading a orchestra of bouncing percussive rhythms, spritely neon dipped keys and an infectious bassline thump, whilst > house music< shows kool vibe dipping into the sounds of vintage murk productions with equal aplomb

eno louis gained a solid background in traditional edo music as a student at edo college in benin city, south-east nigeria. he lived at felas kalakuta republic till the army raid in 1978, when he moved to the us for a couple of years. on his return, he recorded with edo funk powerhouse the talents of benin, and quickly became a mainstay of the flourishing disco and boogie scene, in-demand as guitarist and drummer, with credits including releases by pogo ltd, amas grill, chris okotie, oby onyioha, chris mba, dizzy k falola, harry mosco, pat finn and the super elcados... to name just a few. the two tracks here are from louis debut lp, living in the usa.

somethings are just done better when they are done together and the same can be said about soul button and sasch s latest collaborative work unfold . the two steyoyoke men have come together to show just how passionate they are about producing music that is rich with feeling and emotion.

major people is a new label from santiago salazar. the debut track *new beginnings* is more of a theme song for salazar as he introduces the major people label. modulating synthes can be heard throughout the track and the catchy bassline will warm any dance floor.
*technik* is a slice of sleek, contemplative techno that is far out on a late-night tip, leaving only a bouncing bassline and skipping tech-house beat to hold down the groove amongst the tune’s more ethereal sounds. on the remix, chicagos defend:r (ricardo mirandas alter-ego) takes apart the original to form a hybrid electro style remix laced with sub bass grooves and just the right amount of synths to take it to the next level.
this is the beginning of much more to come from major people.

once upon a time ... in the midst of masked identities, artist pseudonyms and the like, midnight shift introduces a creature not even of human form. tapirus conjures music reflecting the duality of his soul. on one hand, rough and acidic to tell of the terrain of his past. and on the other, pure ethereal sounds borne of another place. this ep, showcasing 3 songs of the tapirus alongside a remix by label artist basic soul unit, is just the introduction to his tale.

principal records follow up the superb debut from s & m with the m from that partnership (that man monkz) alongside the mysterious mr. vasir. as before it is the finest, roughed up soulful house which could just as easily have emerged from detroit as sheffield. mr moncrieff is going from strength to strength! fellow steel city heavy-hitter and exciting new talent squarehead handles the remix, turning in a rough and ready club workout that really hits home.
pressing on white coloured 10 inch vinyl.

nice price deal !!! 2 tracks crafted structurally for djs and emotionally for dancers. once again, they’re not to be bothered with at home or in the car.

introducing the house of 12 vol.2, also including some new artists on this one. a1 is with martin bell, uk, the man behind all those videos on youtube about >how to make house music with soul<. a jazzy house raw tune, proper sound for a proper dancefloor. a2 is a mysterious band from croatia, rare people house brand, all stuffed with vintage gears as well, presenting a house/disco song with a fucking good syncopatic crescendo and some hypnotic vocal. b1 is an italian guy, jacy, and his talented attitude to resume a disappeared vibe from old italian house from the early 90s, mixed with a new touch, so its not revival, its a new life about that genre!! b2 is the worst of the band, as usual, deep88, here with a raw-all-played-track that hasnt seen any sequencer, just a multitrack tape overdubbing and mpc.

fleetwood mac is a band with many faces. in contrast to their poppy sound of the 70s, fleetwood mac actually started out in the sixties as a psychedelic blues band under guitarist peter greens lead.
pious bird of good omen was originally released in 1969 as a compilation of the bands bluesy roots: their first four uk singles and their b-sides and two tracks by bluesman eddie boyd with fleetwood mac backing. the albums sound is laidback, down & very dirty, featuring scorching cover versions of little willie johns >need your love so bad< and robert johnsons >i believe my time aint long<. the b-side features the international hit single >albatross< and peter greens composition >black magic woman<, the latter being popularized by santanas version in 1970. this album is a must-have for blues fans. anyone interested in the roots of fleetwood mac might discover they are essentially a totally different band than one might think.

new years deal - after the prominent line up of their first effort, undelivered records returns with just a renowned cast as on the first 12 inch. mind boggling techno in its purest form. 4 grooving techno anthem with heavy percussion and a well balanced sound to them.

in september 2010, blame one hit j57 up via twitter when he heard that the legendary nyc record store and hip-hop cultural icon fat beats was closing its doors, knowing that is where j57 worked, to tell him he was sorry to hear the sad news. they immediately clicked and linked up for a project. fast-forward to 2013 and they give you the *walk in the sun* lp.
pressing on orange-red coloured & marbled vinyl, includes code for mp3 download of the full album.

lethal chicagoid acid madness produced by a team of rabid suburban producers who prefers to remain in the shadows. just one side of extreme loudness. vinyl only.

kinfolk head to philly for kinfolk004, welcoming committed vinyl rummager and top notch dj billy werner into the fold. this 10 inch is the apparent end product of that rare occurrence where budding producer sends label unsigned tracks that are actually decent. *kick & flutter* is a blinky blue sunrise of a tune, innocent, euphoric and, dare we say, totally balearic... not retro but timeless. *where the sea meets the stones* treads a similar line but with a more incessant acidic undertone. both perfect for chasing sunrises and sunsets... as is traditional you get a soft rocks remix to boot... murmured voices, gentle pulses and psychedelic repetition. did any of the original make it in there? just relax and enjoy it...

limited edition of 500 copies.
again we search into west coast skies to an artist reaching for them. to los angeles, to katie gately, still in the throes of academe we find her, playing at new pop forms. this here record in july bloom is a bold and exciting taster of what is in store, around the corner. six tracks of frightening ambition. a prime distillation in computer-music-pop. more alarming – this is her debut release, she has been making organised sound for just over a year.

dionne is a one of a kind rarity. osunlade pulls and draws from the lovely days of old, paying homage house music as it once was, when vocal edits were the vibe and pulse of an emerging sound. with traditional bata drums, filters that would put u in the mind of classic nick holder an just good ole fashioned groove on top of groove. the b-side is a ode to the bossa sound with a pulsating heart beat, funky melodies and smooth rhodes topped with a quirky yet fun vocal asking the question *what gets u high*? its music here that gets us high. we hope the same for u.

describing mathias & marco (aka mule) is quite easy, these two freaky guys simply love what they do! in a world of selfmade cookies, glitter and confetti we only add a sixpack of beer, cool beats and the crazy party has already been started! well, life could be as simple as that when you just open your mind for a smile. with jeahmon!005 we represent this attitude to life and also say hello to >mr. & mrs. q< with their veeerryy warm re-edit on b1. love is in the air! so jeahmon! records really misses no sunshine this summer...

>simple setup< in fact, this fine tune could have the capability of becoming a true >summer hit< – unfortunately we will release it not until september 2013. but maybe you like its loose and uplifting atmosphere anyway. christopher rau must have produced this good-humoured work with a big smile in his face. >save the energy< attentive boys and girls surely realize that we made a misspelling on the label! so what! more unlucky would be if we release a bad track. but christopher turns out in an experienced way what he knows best: relaxed deep house with a melancholic touch.>athens< what a rumbling tune! one definitively should play >athens< on a good sound system to enjoy its profound sub bass. and dear djs, please dont underrate it just because we placed it on position b2. played at the right time this track can work on the floor as well as the other ones.

it is simply impossible to put a label on the sound of be svendsen. well, at least one thing can be said: his stylistic open-mindedness is just perfect for open air scenarios! seriously fun loving – that is the way in which the danish producer performs his signature sound juggling.

a future nu disco classic from italys the zars on chicagos own smooth agent records. the zars are producers alexander giampaolo tessarolo & alessandro la padula. their sound is somewhere between classic deep house and nu disco. we just call this good music. the uks ooft! kicks things off with a deep and atmospheric mix with a touch of acid followed by the original mix. b/w a luminodisco remix with a soulful and more organic mix plus the bonus cut saxa rubina.

keeping up a high rate of release but just as high level of quality, the cinematic label turns to german dj, producer and exploration label boss johannes volk for its next ep, with a typically idiosyncratic remix from greek dub techno man xdb. volk has been producing conceptual techno since 2006, debuting with a fine ep on the revered axis label run by techno royalty jeff mills. since then he has continued to evolve on labels like steffis dolly as well as his own vinyl only imprint, and does so once again on this release.
