following on from a hectic summer touring across the globe, ny producer joeski returns to the studio to create his next release, due on crosstown rebels in 2018. the release unfolds with the original version of i want you - a fierce, driving beat is juxtaposed alongside the sensual and smoldering vocal as the bassline rumbles on. pure 4am, fist pumping pleasure. the flip side introduces the disco mix of the title track. but don’t let the ‘disco’ lull you into a false sense of security. the track is fuelled by intense industrial sounding smashes and an abundance of layers that creep ever closer. a founding member of nyc’s the chocolate factory dj collective, joeski has been a staple in the underground scene in new york since 1991, holding down a residency at the city’s famed nightclub- roxy. he’s played alongside the likes of danny tenaglia, louis vega and roger sanchez. his career has seen him release on electrik soul, siesta, chez and camouflage as well as launching his own imprint maya records in 2001. this year, the prolific producer has juggled a jam-packed touring schedule taking in australia, new zealand, south america and europe, as well as ibiza for do not sleep and misfits.

psyfunk is a record series curated by franco cinelli, driving force of the south american underground dance music landscape and argentina’s most respected producer and dj. with psyfunk, cinelli provides a selection of minutely crafted and slowly-evolving extended dj tools. for this third chapter, cinelli calls on young upcoming talents from argentina and uruguay. opening up the a.side, bodeler lands with his reduced ghettotek funk, which is already one of the deadly dancefloor weapons of some of the most respected djs out there. irresistible! following up, is richard hz. other very promising artist on argentine grounds, hz provides here a burning break track, with clear touches of psychedelic acid and mystery. an ideal track to keep the floor floating in thin air. on the flip! alan castro, hailing from the atlantic coast of bahia blanca, produces here an intimate number packed with melancholy. jazzy relaxing swings under a sea of glitches, afterhour material. bringing this record to the runout is a wonderful and rare appearance of the uruguayan z@p. “mental telepathy” is resolutely funky and a clear flashback to the us midwest right when house became techno.

rush plus continues onto their third release with a 4 track split ep with friends lpz (asuncion, paraguay). the first two releases from the washington, dc based duo/label focused on original material, rpdc003 showcases techno from another city with a burgeoning underground music scene south of the equator. lpz had made a name for themselves in 2016 honing their live performance, debuting on boiler room and building their label, the sequence party (which has invited the likes of truncate, marcel dettmann, et al) and presence in the south american/global underground. the trio s wealth of studio experience is imminent in their sound. they delivered two driving, hypnotic techno tracks in snooze & temp 8 on the a-side, tailored with two more tribal, hectic cuts from rush plus on the b-side. all tracks have been tested at warehouse parties in dc & asunscion, ready for international play

cologne based artist adryiano has finally threaded into label managing waters. ever since the emerge of his multi functional platform cestraw back in 2011 adryiano has been twisting and thinking on when to launch the label side of things. after the humble success of his latest *down south* effort on soul notes it felt like the right time.
cr/001 turned out to be an emotive dance floor record that touches several different modes within the spectrum of underground dance music. from the straight forward 303-anthem *break module* to the uplifting yet deep, chicago-ish tones of *path of yours* - adryianos *default ep* is set to unfold just in time for the cold, dark days before christmas.

direct from the deepest corner of the southern hemisphere, a.k.a. perth, western australia, good company records is a new outlet for the music of our west coast underground , born out of four years of parties and a newly-opened specialist record store of the same name. release number zero-zero-two comes from north perth riddim doctor phil stroud, two extended instrumentals offered generously across two sides of the same 12- black plastic disk, equally suited to solo meditation or dance floor evocation! side a is drum workout the forest , sounding in the mix or on the breeze not unlike a mid-summer, mid-noughties villalobos set echoing through a european wood. side b is the beachside dawn of yemaja , a glistening ode to the goddess of the same name that features the dewy key-tones of yazist vaapa s jack doepel. limited quantities

next up on i m in love is the launch of their new serie iil limited with the intention to provide a platform dedicated to release music with a greater focus on analogue, raw-sounding house & techno apart of the labels main work with a limitation to 50 vinyls only. the two track ep comes from buenos aires based artist matheu 646 who is an essential part of the argentian techno/house scene for more than ten years now. besides constantly playing various clubs around south america, be it solo or as one part of the dj duo proyecto house, he is the co-founder of buenos aires sound culture, a music collective organising one of the cities best underground parties! the a-side comes with a heavy kick, a changing 303 bassline and hypnotic chords which gives us a good example of matheu 646s approach to the deeper side of techno. *grey winds* is an old-school sounding jam with deep chords and melancholic strings, finished by energetic, classic claps!

hailing from chicagos south side, the duo dar embarks lives in a world of underground techno and machines. their debut album, fleer ep, was recorded live on hardwares, no keys were played, just the pressing of buttons and turning of knobs. gathering its inspiration from records on the shelf, sci fi and comics, dar embarks remains steadfast in technotic efforts to interpret the future - our future.

cromie s bubbling, spacious house sound first drew critical acclaim last year on the sold out 12- vines / pyrex (peach001), a collaboration with fellow la producer sage caswell. now, peach is thrilled to present cromies solo debut ep inner knows, a revved up set of idiosyncratic dancefloor weapons. how to stop a bulldozer, a rotating helix of synth stabs, warped vocals and low-end torque warrants it s epic title. elsewhere, flan functions like a potent concentrate of 22nd century funk. inner knows kicks off side b with a swirling late night house jam that flirts with the deeper corners of the genre. another fixture in la s electronic scene, suzanne kraft (running back, esp institute, pharoahs) closes out the record with a cubist reading of flan. on his solo debut, cromie s creative depth and attention to detail belies his freshness to the game. regular sets at las club called rhonda and various underground happenings in the sprawling southland have taught him some valuable lessons. if he can deliver this many distinct sounds on a single record, we cant wait to hear what’s next.

great reissue of this early 80s boogie classic from sandy kerr. with production duties undertaken by sandys father, prolific soul writer/producer george kerr alongside sugarhill hip-hop/electro artist reggie griffin, and engineered by bob blank, this is a superb chugging uptempo boogie/rap cut based on a sample from uk band i-levels club hit *give me* which came out the same year. as well as filling floors across the us it was a big underground favourite in the uk for djs such as greg wilson. released on small south carolina label catawba, this 12 inch features the killer in-demand dub chimental version on the flip as well as sandys smooth rapping a-side. dont miss!

this is the sound of the future four. led by andy meecham, the brains behind the emperor machine, bizarre inc and chicken lips amongst many others, and captures the excitement, diversity, strangeness and harmony of the uk underground sound of the early 90s. we are talking about the sparse dub mix on side 2 of the 12 inch single, machines making mistakes and changing the course of history, the dark side of the rave away from the neon and the white gloves, future four points the way to the dimly lit corner of the dancefloor and makes you move. after a recent discovery of boxes of old s950 and mpc60 floppy discs full of sound sets dating back to the early 90s, all three tracks have been produced solely on the mpc 3000 in staffordshire, and in perfect unison of north and south, mixed by erol alkan in london.

to kick-start the fina campaign we literally hunted high and low to find an artist and sound that we felt would represent us and give a statement of intent. what we didnt expect was for this search to take us south of the equator and into to the deep southern hemisphere. this is not the first place that you would expect to hear warm, deep underground house but this is exactly what you get with the melbourne based mic newman. and thinking about it, it doesnt get warmer or deeper than melbourne does it? mic is a young producer who we believe is destined for greatness. at the age of 29, hes already had a string of underground smashes on labels such as murmur, tsuba, dirt crew, freerange, and now for fina records. the intriguingly named live east, die young ep (mic riffing on his time spent living in london) sees what mic doing what he does best and demonstrates why his future is so bright. on die young, the tougher a-side, mic keeps the beats solid, and the groove tight and hypnotic, while the smooth chord stabs get right under your skin. prolonged foot tapping ensues. on the flip side, live east, mic takes it a little deeper with ever so subtle disco touches. the vocal sample asks what your name is and to take off your jacket as if to welcome you to a very messy after hours on this mcde-esque low-slung house groove. on remix duty, the on-form jacques renault and marcos cabral aka runaway, lift the track out of the south hemisphere and take it in a north easterly direction all the way to the caribbean – adding plenty of steel drums and pads on their interpretation of live east

our jazzy multi instrumentalist, dewalta a.k.a. david koch, returns to vakant with another popping fresh release, as earnestly house as house can get. since his first vakant release in 2008 (va021 salgaro/farina) davids music has taken him around the world in black largely covering our earths northern and southern hemispheres. side a is graced by move yo sitting as close to late 1990s baby ford as one can get without a time machine and personal guide to londons underground. david somehow owns this genre while still making it distinctly his. b1 night shade keeps the housey goose bumps going with a drier and more direct approach. cheeky bleeps and chunky bass balance dark spacey vocals to land the track somewhere between night and day. >angels trumpet< at the b2 position closes this stellar ep out with a track that again borrows from the genre, but continues way beyond its standards with melodic elements that push and pull you in multiple directions resulting in no less than dance floor catharsis.

special limited edition 10 inch record from label heads the sound republic, on an ultra high quality pressing with full jackets and 2 super hot joints, making this a record for the collectors as well as the disc jockeys who have come to rely on tsr for slammin dancefloor material. a return to their roots in funk and jazz, the a side get loose (take a breath) hits with absolutely crushing beats, a running bassline, and a sax bit that has every partygoer running to the dj booth whenever the track gets played asking what in the good god they are hearing! flip the cute little guy over for funkyard junk, a tune that starts with a garbage can percussion jam that eventually works up in to some good old down home southern funk, complete with hand clappin, foot stompin hoots and hollers and yet another infectious guitar hook that can only be described as good times house music. these two funky cuts still have a fresh and modern sound while maintaining that good ole chicago vibe that sends the dancefloors in to a tizzy. receiving massive support from the heavy hitters of the underground, raoul belmans, dj mes, diz, justin long, dj heather, and bryan jones amongst others were caning the hell out of this at this years wmc. dont sleep on this extremely special limited edition pressing of the fifth spatulacity record, yet another quality minded release from some one of the most consistent names in house musics new school
