originally a member of the california r&b group club nouveau, this was irving s crowning glory as a member on the chi-town house faternity. the song was written by dwayne willie wonka grant and remixed by frankie knuckles and is quite unlike most of the vocals that came out of the house scene, with a beautiful clarity to his voice.

2/3 of the legal team that brought you the circuit, burns & hawk release on rush hours no label step back into the halls of justice to convince a jury of their peers that openly emotive music is not something to be scared of. people know willie burns and torn hawk for the other records they have put out. luke went over to will s studio a couple times last year and they drank wine and luke avoided smoking weed. these tracks are pulled from those sessions.

init is the musical incarnation of rhein-main based duo nadia d alo and benedikt frey. albeit heavy use of analogue synthesis and drum-machines, init rethinks its genres sonic approach, unfolding a unique and organic, yet alienating sound, somewhere in mysterious mids of acid, techno, ambient and kraut-rock

not since edward iii rolled out his cannons on the french battlefield during the 100 years war have we seen such shock & awe response to fresh, terrifying and complete weaponry. many of you will already know the name of tx connect from his previous sides on dabj, not to mention cuts on l.i.e.s (w/ willie burns), bad mums and adelaide soundworks. the three tracks present here for his first bonafide dabj solo outing are no-nonsense jack trax strictly for the vagabonds, rogues, sages and full-on midnight wizards. if you were to drop this fizzing slice of wax into a two-litre bottle of coke, it would level your whole fucking town.

2015 repress ... willie burns and entro senestre team up for their second release on l.i.e.s. under the daywalker + cf moniker. big things on here! picking up right where last year s release left off, the title track supersonic transport turns out to be their most dancefloor driven effort to date. doing exactly what the title states, it moves in beautifully epic territories throughout its almost 8 minutes long course, taking you where you need to go. the b-side turns the floor vibes down a notch, as both tracks are left alone to breath in their own worlds, each with equal space and unique sonic character. ace release from these guys.

for more than ten years soul jazz records have been exploring and documenting the sound of new orleans funk. now we turn their attention to the flipside of this musical coin - new orleans soul. these two musical forms share a lineage that begins with the citys enormous rhythm and blues explosion in the post-war 1940s and 1950s. new orleans soul incorporated the soulful vocals of the gospel church, the driving beat of rhythm and blues, as well as traces of the second-line parade bands and the latinized rhythms of the city. this album tells the story of new orleans soul and comes complete with extensive sleevenotes, exclusive photography, supreme sound quality and comes as super-heavy, super-loud limited-edition double vinyl album + download code.

auch wenn don bryant bei dem legendären soul-label hi-records nicht als einer der führenden künstler vermarktet wurde, war er doch ein integraler bestandteil der firma. so gehörte er zum songwriter-team von willie mitchell und war als sänger auf etlichen aufnahmen zu hören. als co-autor von -i can t stand the rain- von ann peebles schrieb er auch einen der größten hits des labels mit. zudem heiratete er ann peebles. auf seinem nun widerveröffentlichten solo-album sind echte soul-perlen zu vernehmen. zudem zeigt don bryant, dass er sich als sänger mit den großen namen des hi-records labels messen kann. lp only.

wiederauflage als vinyl-edition! von künstler willie mitchell 1971 für hi-records unter vertrag genommen, entwickelte sich syl johnson neben al green und ann peebles zu einem der erfolgreichsten soul-künstler des labels. -total explosion- ist sein populärstes solo-album und enthält den größten hit -take me to the river-. dieses stück gibt es auch in einer interpretation von al green, jedoch ist syl johnsons version deutlich langsamer eingespielt, so dass diese eine gänzlich andere wirkung entfaltet. syl johnsons tochter ist die r&b-sängerin syleena johnson, die er bis heute künstlerisch berät und begleitet.

carbon chic, a native of minneapolis, delivers a high-impact redux on a soulful kick for the a-side. while for the b-side, a deep and cozy after-hours excursion effortlessly begins. two tracks at home both on the dancefloor and in your space. beyond the speaker invites carbon chic for the label s sophomore release after legowelt and willie burns shared the successful label debut, angels against dust. with a broken man, beyond the speaker expands its horizons by committing new talent to wax, furthering the label s vinyl expedition. carefully mastered by alek stark, a broken man in redux form does not compromise, upping the tension between burrowing bass, satisfying beat and vocal machinations. on the flipside, deep affection offers a more comforting assortment of synthetic melody and late night warmth while maintaining a firm dancefloor footing with gently rolling hihats topping everything off.

luckily there werent any of the anticipated refund claims for the first two chapters of >if this is house i want my money back<. so we finally dared to compile number three. the concept of the compilation is pretty simple: we ask friends, pv regulars, and other good looking producers, who are famous for dancing around the edges of the genre, for an exclusive track, all of which we put together on one neat compact disc. this time the bill reaches from hot shot producer mano le tough (who celebrated his permanent vacation debut on vol. 2 of this series), maeve label buddy the drifter, the swedish house mafia in form of house dandy axel boman and edit ramajam hnny, rising star lake people, long time vacationer bostro pesopeo (together with local munich dj san quentin) and sizzling newcomer boska to the jack of all trades willie burns, fellow nyc resident octo octa, berlin-based melody masters kim brown, the neukölln acid kingpins achterbahn d’ amour (aka iron curtis & edit piafra) as well as hotflush and we play house regular locked groove. each and everyone of the participants are more than convincing in what they are doing and although they have different perspectives on the long runner house music, the tracks come together in sweet harmony on this compilation

willie griffins boo williams alias returns to goldmin music for the labels most recent release. a vinyl affair, the living waters ep sees the chicago native at his very best, as he combines his customary, old-school, rough-and-ready approach with a newfound approach. the end result is an ep that brilliantly encapsulates all that is great about the label and the artist - as they look to the future but also nod approvingly in the direction of the past.

french brothers baptiste & pierre colleu have been making music together since they were children. they spent a chunk of their childhood in africa, which they say has inspired their work in the studio. that influence is submerged fairly deep on dolphin kid, the title track for these two eps. theres an undercurrent of eerie soulfulness and woody percussion accents running through this oddly alluring cosmic-house seducer, but its roots are more balearic than afrobeat.

hip hop did not develop in a vacuum - its roots can be traced back to the earliest afro-american music, and the folks who were influenced by these sounds along the way. this lp compiles some of the great recordings that showcase the spoken word and street culture put forth from the 1920s through the 1960s that would go on to influence the entire rap music genre. the themes will be familiar - religion, politics, black experience, badass gangsta rap, speed, sex, drugs and rock n roll. lets listen to the lessons that the hipsters of the past taught the rappers of today.

valcrond video, the label of brooklyn-based visual artist and producer luke wyatt presents its very first vinyl issue in the shape of two new tracks from torn hawk, one of wyatts aliases. first coming to the fore in a musical sense with a set of distressed guitar and asphalt beat attacks on the lies white label series, torn hawk has been closely associated with ron morellis label ever since with wyatt subsequently working with karen gwyer, secret circuit and willie burns. distancing himself a bit from the grime and grit some associate with his productions, the two new tracks have more in common with the more expansively voiced compositions on emotional response release teen hawk, or the cinematic melancholy of the untitled ep he released under the alias lossmaker. clearly wyatt is building towards housing all his musical instincts under one roof.

der produzent willie mitchell brachte die talentierte rhythm group hervor-hi rhythm, welche aus den hodges bruedern und howard grimes bestand. im jahre 1976 nahmen sie die lp on the loose auf und waren als band bis in die 90er hinein zusammen erfolgreich unterwegs. das quartett gilt auch heute noch als eine der besten und bedeutendsten bands im bereich soul-musik. und neben ihnen waren weitere großartige künstler wie ann peebles, otis clay oder auch syl johnson auf dem brillanten label hi-records vertreten. der gesamte umfangreiche backkatalog des legendären us-soul-labels hi records wird nun via fat possum re-released. sämtliche alben werden mit der original-tracklist veröffentlicht. die vinyl-lp erscheint inklusive download-code.

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.

drumma keeps delivering special and serious tracks for the dancefloor with its fifth vinyl release. for this ep, jorge savoretti, owner of savor records from argentina gives us an amazing trio of productions. the titular track of the ep, tai ere, is an amazing dub-techno composition that builds up and grooves continuously teasing and titillating the listener.the two machines compositions are gritty techno tracks that get the party going. machines 02 is a relentless hi-hat driven track that can be dropped at peak time. machines 00 is the more relaxed of the two a-sides but no less stimulating than its counterpart. a powerful vocal sample and bassline combine perfectly to make a bomb track.
