THE PRINCE OF DANCE MUSIC - THE TRUE STORY OF HOUSE MUSIC (2LP)
2x12 Inch 12.10.12
elbee bad is another great underground house pioneer from the formative days of nyc house in the late eighties. the true story of house music finally gets told... tip! like the burrell brothers, elbee bad aka lamont booker, is an early house producer from new york city. and the comparison doesnt stop there. elbee bad has also recorded under different aliases and has also remained largely unknown to a wider audience. he has also recorded for nu groove records, for which he has recorded his most famous material, but like the burrells he wasnt a nu groove fixture. bad recorded for a slew of other independent new york house labels like bassment, city limits, easy street, red heat, united states of america and then there was his own larhon records
the layabouts are anything but. 2012 marks leigh darlow and alex paschalis 10th year together and they have never been so in form or demand. their cast iron reputation for quality deep soulful house – house music forged with feeling and real purpose – continues, impressively, to grow.
rhythm master darlow and guitarist cum orchestrator paschali first met in 2001– in home city london – off the back of various projects in the same studio space. in time, their mutual love of expressive house music would lead to cult licks feelin right and the way i feel, sizzling material for kenny dope gonzalez and hot-to-trot remixes of dj spinna, da lata, dj spen and robert owens, and soulsearcher.
supported across the board on major stations such as bbc 1 xtra and radio one. plus dj support from: foreign beggars, june miller, skism, trolley snatcha, pascal, bailey, crissy criss, mind vortex, culprate, basher, vapour, random movement, mindscape, grooverider, slum dogz, laos, ravager, rv, stanza, ruffstuff, danny wheeler, ashatak, phantasy, erb n dub, sappo.
frank music proudly presents: the future sound of limburg! our homies monosoul & johannes not only like peter hoff produced house sound back from 2001 but also good food, turkish beer and a good laugh. on mondays they use to sit together and cook or make music result is tasty house music as we like it.whatever is pushing prime time house.chords,higher strings and those beats. we shouldnt forget about the nice acid line in the end. mornin moanin is more on a mellow tip, pads and a nice bass out of the beloved juno machine. for warmup or late nite use they offer jomo mf which consists of some riot-as-well-as-rainy beatdown sweatness house.
almost 25 years have past since his first release, yet >the true story of house music< is the first time elbee bads catalog gets compiled for re-release. although the best and most prolific part of his catalog is his late 80s and early 90s output, booker never stopped producing (and djing). he is currently residing in berlin, from which he still manages his studio and travels throughout europe to dj.
prior to the compilation we release a vinyl only sampler which features two exclusive and previously unreleased mixes of two tracks which are to be found on his only solo nu groove ep, from which we took the title of this compilation.
this is another winner from the true history of house music.
