(180gr vinyl) as far outs in-house producer his work is a key component in the consistency and transience of the labels sound, with key albums include azymuths fênix, marcos valles estatica, sabrina malheiros dreaming and far out monster disco orchestra. his latest credit on the catalogue is the next chapter of his dokta venom alias, moodswings.

strictly mood ii swing is a new track collection of music from one of the most influential house music duos of all time. as mood ii swing, production duo lem springsteen and john ciafone will go down in history as one of the most prolific and respected house duos of the last 25 years. at their best, they were simply untouchable, with their drum programming often cited as what set them apart from the rest of the field: always busier and more intricate than straight-up 4/4 house tracks

john ciafone and lem springsteen are true house legends, under their mood ii swing production moniker the duo have scored an endless succession of club classics, cult hits and underground anthems. since 1992 theyve been at the forefront of the deep house and garage movement emanating from new york citys clubs and streets and they show no sign of quitting anytime soon! the latest, and third sampler of mood ii swing archival tracks is here, and as usual its full of the duos seminal productions, dubs and remixes for nycs finest, king street sounds. tracks featured: the summer swing, inhale, on your knees and driving me crazy

dream states of lust and lucidity, slow to speaks latest reissue of house musics halcyon years comes courtesy of mood ii swing s visionary lem springsteen. originally released on the eightball sublabel empire state records in 1994, these excursionary landmarks saw springsteen bid farewell to his usual club-saturated exercises in queeny house euphoria for a hallucinatory breach into a secret realm of desire, where the whispers of a long-forgotten hunger meld with the floating synth-work of a true practitioner of the sacred art of club music. this is the soundtrack to the chill-out room of your unconsciouss kaleidoscopic sex dream, the sweet synth lines of springsteens ritual music still floating in your mind as you awake, alas, a little too soon. fear not: this dyonisian masterpiece is once more available thanks to the good spirits at dope jams, who remind you, *whatever the eye sees and covets, let the hand grasp!* not without asking (or paying) first, of course.

200 copies only! our third release comes from polands robot needs oil, an exciting vocal smash, backed by mixes from simon garcia and yvan genkins.

phenomenal reworks from the mighty spencer parker bring 2 classic king street productions firmly up to date.

excellent deep house classic

mood ii swing steps up to the plate for the latest core reissue with one of their finest works, handpicked from an accomplished list of mighty ny house masterpieces spanning the 1990s. >sunlight in my eyes<, released on king street sounds, is one of springsteen and ciafones unquestionable feats, an astral, pad-laden waking dream structured around a spine-tingling vocal sample that is progressively rearranged, teased-out and freaked relentlessly, as each exalted chord is shone down from the heavens at precisely the right instant. a prime example of the weightless, unfettered and incomprehensibly beautiful musical imagination of the rave generation, the 1994 masterpiece nonetheless features the swinging drum program and demolition drive of a ny house classic—a track right at home amid the boundless vision of springsteen and ciafones genius. finally reissued after 16 years of obscurity, >sunlight in my eyes< encapsulates mood ii swings many forms in a singular exposition of deep house eternity worthy of representing the duos prolific catalog.

fat 12inch package full of house classics! a must have! excellent restock!!

eastbound recordings returns for its 3rd release! this time on a very deep tip, perfect for those long summer nights. orlando b presents two deep house grooves and mr g takes care of the b-side with his hypnotic mellow remix.

one of the most consistent us production duos since the 90s return to strictly for the third time in a year with one of their mellow, understated vocal grooves. singer tara j keeps it laidback and jazzy while lem and john craft a selection of r n b fuelled vocal mixes, just the instrumental mood ii swing dub providing a deeper flavour with tense beats and electronic touches, while the acoustic, downtempo urban lounge mix is a revisit to their classic live mixes.

finest looped techno four tracker

its been a productive month for the mood ii swing boys. the follow up to last months passing time, a collaboration with vocalist lauren, is a fantastically deep disco record that moves and shakes along with the best of them. the bouncy, wobbling bassline of the main mix simply demands to be grooved to, while laurens husky vocal glides along the airy pads and cheeky synth stabs. the dub foregoes the bassline of the original, opting instead for a more top heavy sound and taking the record in a pleasantly techy direction

the double vinyl with 8 unmixed tracks includes the dj-mix on cd.

following an acclaimed debut artist album earlier in the year and sell-out, crowd-surging gigs at the summers major festivals, the 2 bears have sharpened their claws and groomed their fur in anticipation of their latest project, 2 bears 1 love.

hot release alert by our boy paul du lac who is a long time close friend of the frustrated family, colleague at the clone office and an old dj buddy of frustrated funk label boss klen (when they played the nighttown basement in the early 90s). so it s a bit of a special thing for us having him aboard. this ep shows pauls signature minimalistic approach on chicago style house. typical jacking 707s and 808s combined with minimal synth pulses. qom and access are pure jackin bliss for the floor while moodswings goes deeper with layers of warm pads and spaced out stings. the title track comes with a stripped beats version from tevo howard, for those who like to mix things up.. highly recommended!!

the jivers is a production duo formed by the two french djs/producers don pascal and fred spider. having not known each other before, their paths first crossed when both of them had moved to barcelona in 2007. soon they discovered their common love for deep and soulful music ranging from jazz, funk, brazil to nu-jazz, broken beat or house. their debut single >do what< has already been featured on the jazz&milk breaks compilation and received amazing feedback and spins from djs all over the globe and was brought to an even broader audience after being included on several compilations such as >saint germain des pres cafe<. now the song is being re-released in form of the do what ep including a brand new track called >move on girl<, again featuring the unmistakable voice of anqui and remixes by dj moodz, don pascal and fred spider. the jivers music can be described as a dance-floor oriented fusion of jazz elements with modern beat productions including the colorful and melodic vocals of anqui.
