next nail biggie

brothers ben & liam murray return to the nail shop with inept, an e.p of emotional house music which soundtracks love, lust, euphoria, heartbreak, late nights and early mornings and everything in between. best consumed with a cold drink and factor 15.

speed boat is back! after an extended fishing trip in mid 2017. speedy b pulls into shore with a new ep - a fwd dive, you can expect bass lines, bongos and barking!

2xm are a duo that work on either side of the world and the end result is exceptionally beautiful music that can be filed somewhere between jazz & house - (gel)tip!

here at the nail shop we’ve booked you in for another appointment, this time with an unknown artist, who goes under the moniker of maniqin.
this record offers up a selection of services and styles that would cater to varying tastes, with the dance floor in mind.
on the top coat (a-side) the artist takes a simple loop and manages to turn it into 5 minutes of euphoria that will get your entire body moving, whereas the second track soundtracks you leaving our london based salon with everything on point.
on the base coat (b-side) the energy comes down a few notches to a warmer serene state before rounding this record off with a track that will see those freshly preened and polished gel tips curled into a fist in the middle of the dance floor straight through til morning.

politics of dancing records welcomes one of england most valued deep house producers, nail, who has done releases for classic, diy, robsoul or mosaic, and berlin s much sought after duo, cab drivers on the remix duty. the asterales ep, is a strong deep house number with two cuts, dub me 2 and u gotta be there, and a remix of dub me 2 by cab drivers. on the a side, dub me 2 is an effective loopy teched-out killer, filled with funk and heady vocals. a groovy peak time winner. u gotta be there is a solid deep house track, with intoxicating stabs and tremendous rhythms. on the b side, cab drivers serve us a refined and powerful remix. a mighty interpretation for an essential release.

uk deep house legend nail returns to monologues records for a full release after his sublime decisions featured on the dialogue vol. 2 various artists 12- at the end of last year. ever consistent, he delivers two deliciously deep gems. voodoo is a low-down chugger, chunky beats doing battle with disco and soul samples in hypnotic effect. on wid it also oozes soul in its vocal sample and twinkling keys, a garage tinge to its groove. g. markus steps up for the remix of voodoo , keeping things rolling and injecting a big groove of a bassline into the proceedings.

speed boat is eden burns, one half of dunedin house duo sandboards, who brightened up 2016 with heavyweight releases on feel my bicep and cold tonic. splitting off for the first release under his solo moniker, speed boat applies the base coat to new label the nail shop with a gliding four track ep for the imprint’s debut release, that makes the foot-tapping accompaniment to an afternoon waiting for your nails to dry.
the vibe is in the name, as ‘speed tools’ packs a mighty punch, featuring skittering percussion, steady-movin’ bass and infectiously sensual pads that effortless take the forefront. just don’t be surprised if it swoops you straight from the salon onto the dancefloor.

spain s slow town rarely fails to deliver the goods. split, so called because it contains tracks from numerous artists, more than lives up to the label s rising reputation. it probably helps that the a-side comes from former bent man and longtime east midlands deep house stalwart nail. his -shake back- explores similar sonic territory to pepe bradock s -deep burnt-, whilst retaining the chunky, bass-heavy bottom-end recognizable from his releases for classic, shabby doll and robsoul recordings. on the flip, there s an equally assured cut from london stalwarts jonno & tommo. -wolf spirit- is an altogether more tech-tinged affair, built around a restless electronic bassline, hypnotic percussion and woozy, late night chords.

nails debut album from 1996, originally on diy s strictly 4 groovers imprint, gets a full vinyl reissue for its 20th anniversary. all proceeds will go to both focus12 rehabilitation centre in suffolk uk, and maggie s centre nottingham. many thanks to diy crew and juno for their help and support. dedicated to big d. hold tight pedro. peace, nail x

for pressure traxx 013 we take things back to basics. two guys and four machines are the only ingredients for these old school bangers. on the a side we re very proud to welcome nail tolliday from the uk to the family. this legend is in the game for more than 20 years and has paid his dues for sure. -sentipede- (originally released on diy discs in 95) was produced on a roland tr 909, tb 303, sh 101 and one effect processor. it was live mixed and recorded in one take. no trickery and no bullshit! on the flip we have pressure traxx co-founder einzelkind cutting it with his 808 rhythm traxx 3. this is a recording of a 10 minute live jam with the roland tr 808. no arranging, no cheap effects, just one guy working this all-time classic drum machine live n direct!

following the release of jay haze & esbs *finding oriya* lp, leftroom delivers a remix package of *refine to deepness* from the project, featuring reworks from nail and cottam.

ltd 2015 repress ** phunked up chicago house styled ep, > til the feelings gone< was already dropped by zip on his recent fabric compilation

limited 2015 repress, marbled pink 180gr vinyl , just 200 copies , thats it.
part four in the series sees mosaic return to its signature sound of the late 90 s : deep techno-tinged house. first up is uk house legend nail , who was in hiding in london and suffolk for a while , but is now back in his bunker in nottingham making music once again. his offering, -pharoah,- was created on boxing day 2013 especially for mosaic and contains all the hallmarks of classic nail productions of the 90s whilst maintaining a foot firmly in the present. if you like your house deep and sample heavy this cut is definitely worth checking out...on the flip we have two tracks from newcomer annie errez. annie is a resident dj at the mint club in leeds and has been developing her production skills over the last few years with appearances on holic trax , saints & sonnets as well as a very fine release on strobewax which she co-runs with fellow mint club resident bobby o donnell. if deep techno- house is your cup of tea then put the kettle on and listen to the sublime -bell curve- and the dubbed out bass monster that is auguste.- we are sure that you will agree that there is no doubt that she will be a producer to keep an eye on in the future

excellent deep house dbl header <br riding on the back of a surge of interest in de la club, the debut lp from hold youth, comes a smartly picked repress of house don nail. while the duo is known for their eclectic vision of dance music, the first repress on the label ive been there ep is in fact an exemplary example of straight-up, no-fuss house. enjoying a modest comeback of late both as a producer and dj, nail originally released full of beestone promise ep on diy discs in 97. the stronger two of the four tracks will be repressed one on each side, * our love* and * i ve been there*, distinctive for its melodic vocal and recent inclusion in the apollonia fabric 70 compilation. while we have become accustomed to hold youth’s diversification of sounds with the current lp, i ve been there reminds us that a pigeon-holable classic can be highly refreshing

nail is a bit of a legend. with his career flourishing once again it seems there are plenty of ears alert to his next musical move: a limited edition and individually numbered nine-track double pack on shabby doll called nite music . and they re not going to be disappointed. this collection shimmers and shines, packed with gleaming house music designed both for early evening head-nodding and early hours hands-in-the-air moments. from deeply delicious tracks like angel dub and lunar views to harder-edged delights like track two and bikky swing , nail has created another must-have set for the fast-expanding shabby doll catalogue.

the third 12 inch sampler taken from lukes unfinished business compilation series, this time featuring a lost dub of the nails classic hurt u featured as part of the kittens single back in the year 2000. nail is enjoying a fantastic and deserved renaissance at the moment and will felt it was high time let this baby loose. this is followed by another lost gem from the wonderful tak label. the last unfinished business compilation featured the timedwellers and now it’s time for collis king, look out for some unreleased gems to be featured on an ep from classic later this year. number 3 is the tripped out vocal classic from sandee - given some modern day remastering business a record that has proven to be totally timeless - and a stalwart at luke and kenny hawkes legendary space nights at bar rumba. and finally - lukes very own stop the riot - the first single he recorded with sam lynham from gramme championed by the likes of skream on radio one and nemone on 6 music - we felt the single deserved its very own place on vinyl.

as bass culture proudly reaches its 40th release, it gives us great pleasure to welcome back john jastszebski after he last turned out an ep for us back in 2012. releases for phonogramme and robsoul in the past two years have confirmed that he is a force to be reckoned with in the booming parisian house and techno scene. his approach on the would be back e.p fits in perfectly with the bass culture aesthetic, delivering tracks with a simple immediacy, always loaded with soul in just the right places, but never shirking the all-important groove. > would be back< s sturdy beat leads neatly up to a colourful burst of piano chords and rousing strings that make this into a perfect summer house cut. > fevrier< comes on with an entirely different season in mind, as mysterious and dubby tendrils of synths and samples unfurl around each other with a distinctly wintry mood. > my girl< meanwhile keeps the energy levels up with a stripped back, punchy beat, filling the space in the mix out with rousing pads that soothe and uplift.for a remix of > would be back<, we decided to turn to a long-time legend of the uk house scene, nail. his remix takes a more emotive approach to johns original, dropping in some playful synth lines and dreamy effects with stunning results. reaching across all seasons, situations and times of day and night, the would be back e.p delivers just the kind of versatile house music that sets our souls alight here at bass culture

4 unreleased cuts by nail, echoing perhaps the more jacked-up moments of his --big d s lounge-- lp that was released on diy that same year. speaking from his tent pitched outside the oswestry service station goods entrance, he recalled, --i have no memory of making these tracks--. 300 on clear vinyl, no repress.

hidden away on a dat tape since 1997, 8 raw cuts from house legend nail are now being released as a limited pressing, individually numbered double pack vinyl. shabby doll records co-founder matt swift, who managed nail throughout the nineties, and along with charles webster ran remote records, found the dat in a box of tapes at his house when looking for something entirely unrelated. result. only one of the trax, brothers & sisters had previously ever seen the light of day. an edited version was released in 1998 on matt and charles s remote record label. shb012 will hold the full unedited version of brothers & sisters, along with all 7 other trax from the dat, exactly as they were left in 97...
