manchester original sameed comes through on gamm with two tasty noodle nuggets based on his food experiences from vietnam where he currently resides. his simple yet effective approach is best described as sample-friendly underground dance music with influences of disco, soul and jazz. on his gamm debut the first noodle dish comes with a heavy disco and jazz-funk feel (bun) that together with some gritty vocals gives us a peak time jam to die for. for desert, sameed delivers chao which is way darker and chops up some deep jazz samples with some 4/4 rhythms. again, simple but oh so effective

on local talk s 74th release it s about time to get real...and we re not only talking about the music! this a heavy and political record that through music expresses the constant struggle for many african americans living in the us today. or like jamie 3:26 said after he first heard sameed s initial version - it instantly hit me with the raw pain and emotion of the lyrics. there is so much struggle in the world today, many black men and women are in emotional, mental and spiritual battles. the message is delivered over two tracks, testify and can t u . both tracks are using the same themes and samples but with a distinct difference on the end result. on the a side we find chicago legend jamie 3:26 teaming up with amsterdam s new shining star masalo (brighter days crew) for a gospel inspired disco / house jam that comes with a slight warehouse feel and a thumping bassline that is 100% on point on the flip sameed is back on local talk with can t u . a track that uses the same foundation as testify but instead goes straight for that dirty disco knock out punch...heavy stuff! as an extra bonus we also included dusty jazz , a fender rhodes driven jazz-house cut from sameed that sounds like it comes straight from a dark juke joint in manchester.

manchester based producer sameed delivers us a very nice ep for the skylax n°141. after his first weapon -spend ep- on the swedish label local talk, he confirms here his taste for house music with -ma thang-. this new release is perfect to bring a dark and sensual amosphere to a warm up set.

to celebrate two decades of skylax records, label head hardrock striker teams up with long time friend and co-worker dj sprinkles as skylax house explosion (s.h.e.). they present the second of three exclusive vinyl releases accompanying the mix cd for the 20 years compilation. all three eps will feature previously unreleased music curated by dj sprinkles and hardrock striker. “i think of one time in new york when they wouldn t let me into the loft, and i could hear they were actually playing one of my records on the dance floor at that very moment. i shit you not.” – dj sprinkles, midtown 120 blues (2008).

the third record by vienna-based label secret crunch is ready to be unleashed. this time with various artists from all over europe.

ele returns with ha noi nights, a collection of dusty jazz samples and soulful grooves inspired by the distinct tapestry of street culture pulsating through the capital. the opening track rush recalls our affection of groove chronicles 90 s garage sound, before repelete and bini take centre stage with their infectious soulful summer beauty legislate . resonating with fans of james mason s bassline in the monster nightgruv , the b side welcomes rhythm sections contours and saxophonist callum connell who turn towards the later hours with night shift . finally, sameed returns to the dusty jazz formula with someone like me an infectious blissful sound, built around jazz samples and rhodes solos.
