wir bei seayou records freuen uns über das signing der kanadischen soulsängerin erin costelo. die erste single “fighter” ist der vorbote zu ihrem neuen album “down below, the status quo”, das seayou in europa im april veröffentlichen wird. während klassischer soul und pop am vorgänger “we can get over” die verzückung des aufkeimens einer liebesbeziehung untermalten, dominiert am neuen album ein ungeschönter, ein unerschrockener blick auf costelos (und unser aller) leben, besonders gut zu hören in songs wie “fighter”, “low” und “titanic”. auf der anderen seite, und um die balance zu halten, stehen lieder wie “move” und “turn it on”, die hoffnung und kraft geben sollen. mit der inhaltlichen geht auch eine musikalische evolution einher, eine weiterentwicklung costelos als produzentin, songwriterin und arrangeurin. dazu eine eindringliche soul-stimme, die weder in nordamerika noch in europa vergleiche scheuen muss.

1994’s “flava in ya ear” captures one of those moments in hip hop that can be called career defining for nearly all involved. of course this was craig mack’s biggest selling single, landing at number 9 on the billboard hot 100 and hitting platinum status.

spice 1 is an undisputed west coast legend, who first hit the scene after the n.w.a. and closer to home too $hort explosion of the late 80s. as history showed, he continued that bloodline with finesse and authority. his nasal flow is menacing and strong, and fans have been consistently captivated by his hood tales since his self-titled debut in 1992. if you want thematic range with your mcs, spice isn’t that dude he is all about crime tales and the perils of ghetto life. and he attacks that storytelling sweet spot with each new cut. spice 1 boasted four singles by the time it was all said and done, and breezed to gold status on the strength of cuts like the catchy east bay gangster, the heartfelt tales and truths of welcome to the ghetto, and the thick, grooving in my neighborhood. he even produced the alcohol-themed 187 proof, another of the albums singles, and the hands-down cleverest vocal outing on the lp. sonically, the backdrops on spice 1 range from plunky, keyboard-bassline funk to deeper, fuzzy 70s samples and he sounds strong on top of both. break yourself is fueled with an electro-funk drive, 1-800 spice brings reggae flavor, and peace to my nine gets chunkier, with a well-placed p-funk one nation under a groove sample. presented here on official retail vinyl for the first time since its initial release 26 years ago, spice 1s debut holds the test of time and carries the california gangsta flag with pride. some colors just don’t fade.

with the celebrated return of dr. octagon (dan the automator, kool keith and dj qbert) in 2017 including their first-ever live performances fans are sure to keep gobbling up the space weirdness that first surfaced more than 20 years ago. get on down presents a unique picture disc, featuring the original octagon album artwork by the legendary artist pushead. the infamous doctor’s head and lower torso reach above and below the actual 45 rpm playing surface, as if trying to escape their two-dimensional status. on the a-side is a brand-new dr. octagon song, “octagon octagon,” which picks up where the original energy left off. it’s a dark and grooving glimpse into keith’s rubberband mind, jumping abstractly from line to line, chock full of equal partscharisma and dementia. on the flip is the song for which the group is most well-known, “blue flowers.” the version presented here is the amazing “prince paul’s so beautiful” remix, which first appeared on a mo wax 12” in the uk in late 1996. it was the first meeting of the two great production minds from different eras – dan the automator and prince paul would go on to collaborate many more times over the next decade, most notably as the group handsome boy modeling school. this is another great trophy for any self-respecting kool keith and dan the automator fan, combining the old and the new in triumphant fashion.

nice price deal !!! planet x sees dave back as system status and head honcho of his own label night sweats. all three tracks on this debut outing for the label are brimming with the analogue warmth of daves beloved arp axxe and soulful samples from his treasured vinyl collection, creating a juxtaposition of sounds that are essential for any discerning space raver!

after a three year hiatus night sweats music artist system status is back with his first outing for people must jam. the four-track pale & crazy ep sees a return to the experimental uptempo sounds of uk producer dave rendle.

continuing their uncompromising fusions of artists new and old, contort yourself return with a punishing array of industrial thuggery from hardware manipulators you wouldn t take home to your mother. novacom were last seen on slumdiscs back in 2014 and here bring a fast and gnarly rhythmic tryst to bear before jk flesh do their own snagging dance with oppressive synths and drums twirling into a heavyweight whole. french brutalists le syndicat then dominate the b-side with their confrontational bastardisation of techno and industrial, making the perfect source material for ekman to get nasty with on his remix of -maximalist-.

2017 repressed .... we are delighted to welcome back detroits rick wade to the landed records imprint. a guy who needs no introduction in the house and disco music scene, ricks stable career as a dj and producer has spanned more than two decades. treating the world to some of the best loved deep house and angry disco tracks, its easy to see why hes such a well loved and respected artist. the adjustment of status ep spins a terrific story of raw house music and angry disco - two sounds where rick is well and truly on top of his game.

more acid madness form those cheeky north london chappies. naughty naughty boys!

system status (david rendal) caught our attention in 2012 with his self released pistachio ep. his production stood out to us instantly and his musicality shows through in his compositions. tusk wax, giles peterson & ashley beadle have all been paying attention to his work over the last few year and this ep was an opportunity for us to introduce another one of his tracks to the dance floor.

the first release of the new dutch label pinkman contains four great tracks from drvg cvltvre, formerly known as ra-x. his music is slow, doomy, with broken disco and house elements, focussing on on hypnotic repetition and percussion. most of the music is made with electronic means, but is rooted in an organic, percussive approach.

including remix by brian miller aka detroit people mover.
supported by: darko esser, lee holman, dvs1, jeroen search, jonas kopp, dimi angelis, paul boex, markus suckut, sebastian bayne, echoplex, go hiyama, miss sunshine, samuli kemppi, philippe petit ...
