limited edition of 500 copies on translucent purple swirl vinyl.

first solo album from lndn drgs front man jay worthy.

nice price deal !!! the title track of this ep is the bouncy stepper >last march<. a snarling, distorted bassline has meant that this tune has found favour with numerous a-listers in recent times and is a worthy tune for the ep to be named after. on the flip, is the ferocious >disaffected<. eeerie pads and atmospheres make way for a driving drum loop and sub bass before all hell breaks loose at the drop with one of the nastiest, most twisted reese basslines heard for a very long time. the influence of labels such as the aforementioned renegade hardware is obvious, and it is one of, if not the, most ferocious and devastating slice of d&b ever to grace dsm.

limited vinyl release of ep produced by the alchemist for jay worthy of lndn drgs.

nice price deal !!! the rejuvinated playtime presents worthy and yankee zulus >the bs connection<. the san francisco / katabatic / dirtybird star worthy versus irelands yankee zulu, whose recent tracks have had raves from luciano, pig and dan and playtime favourite justin robertson. it s already being played to death by claude von stroke, it s got that wonderfully lazy funk that we like round here, and it s got a killer andre crom remix that makes the groove simultaneously more insistent and weirdly looser

strangelove recordings makes its bold arrival with its inaugural release from the well-seasoned beatmaker worthy, with the aptly titled a little weird ep . a little weird stretches across the a-side with its bouncy drum and sub figure, spread thick over a searing lead line, percussive bleeps and worthy s all-yearning vocals that crescendo with a playful momentum. on the flip, bang baby keeps up the pressure with its warm and weighty bassline and fractured drum programming calling once more for worthy s vocal tones, bouncing atop the bumping rhythm track that stylistically treads the line between house, bass and tech. having of recent re-established his own anabatic records, toured relentlessly and released on labels such as exploited, insomniac and defected, worthy s much anticipated debut with us sets the standard high for what is to come, whilst wholly encapsulating the label s experimental sound dj support: danny howard, gorgon city, eton messy, amin edge, jakwob, illyus & barrientos, dateless, charlie tee, coco cole, linier, gotsome, kideko, low steppa, monki, mike wooler, oliver heldens, dismantle, 6ftshort, ciszak, ardalan, walker & royce, friend within + more!

illusion recordings are back after a years break from releasing music for their 10th and most ambitious release. they took a break to step back and build a strong platform for the future and build a crew of high calibre artists who represent and showcase their musical identity which they have built over their first 9 releases and two sub labels.

for those turned on by the far-sighted, sci-fi inspired sounds of detroit deep house and techno, this ep from michael zucker s finale underground imprint (an offshoot of his finale sessions label) should be an essential purchase. with the likes of patrice scott, keith worthy and luke hess involved, you d expect the quality threshold to be high. it is, of course, resulting in a quartet of killer tracks. hess hypnotic techno jam -tolox- is a definite highlight, though it pales in comparison to the analogue futurism of keith worthy s brilliant -cyclops-. best of all, though, is scott s -journey into the unknown-, which bobs, weaves, bubbles and spits to the rush-inducing deep house sound of undulating synthesizer melodies and classic, transmat-style motor city rhythm

long established detroit talent keith worthy traverses a fine line between deep, bumpy house and raw techno on his debut double album, the price of non-conformance. t.p.o.n.c. is a conceptual project that takes you on a virtual walk through the streets of detroit. from a musical standpoint, the sound and feel of t.p.o.n.c. aligns with worthy’s own dna, a complex blend of house and techno, and all while incorporating a degree of fantasy into every composition. always striving to create his own path, and never allowing everyone else’s “norm” to become his influence, worthy really excels in this long player format. in total, t.p.o.n.c. consists of 14 tracks (including 8 songs and 6 interludes) all crafted to convey a vision of what non-conformance looks and sounds like. t.p.o.n.c. has range, from the boom-bap of the drums to the unorthodox patterns and key structures, this project evokes a sense of individualism that often gets lost in todays modern world of musical proliferation. in true detroit fashion, and in tandem with the spirit of aesthetic audios own mantra, t.p.o.n.c. maintains, the rule is there are no rules.

limited 2014 repress !!
moments in rhythm vol 3. was inspired by an in-depth conversation that questioned the level of importance that todays society does or does not value its critical art forms, most specifically music … the universal language, as a means of free expression. from this passionate discussion spawned the composition of an opened ended letter, written in 4/4 format that captures and shares the passion of this conversation, and ultimately asks some questions such as … is it in you?

label boss jose cabrera aka j.c. comes up with his first ep on ahd after having released in labels such as soul people music. expect rawness, deep pads and analog synths and arpeggios. keith worthy, aesthetic audios label boss is on the remix duties delivering a very unique and original version.

the 17th installment from aesthetic audio brings together italian bred producer joe drive and detroits own keith worthy for a two-man journey to fathom the depths of the sound oasis. on this journey, the soundtrack articulates joe drives lush and extremely deep textures, and worthy compliments the project by paying tribute joe drives original with a stripped down, raw and bumpy remix of amnios.

your imagination paints the picture as these sounds creep into the alleys of your mind … midwest maestros gmarcell (chicago) and keith worthy (detroit), get together on this one to create sublevel mayhem …. this is underground … this is deepness … this is: the rise of the dijital teknobots!!!!

just close your eyes and listen to these three lush compositions, while your imagination paints brilliant abstract visuals deep in the alleys of your mind. keeping consistent with the previous ten aesthetic audio releases, the formula for this new gem remains an uncompromising plethora of very raw substance, innovation, and timeless music that will clearly stand on it own amongst deep dance aficionados across the globe. deep roots: begins this journey with this intense and twisted deep banger that is simply a dancers dream. thumping drums and melodic string arrangements get things jumping as you are very quickly taken to your special place. the dark symphony: is a sinister and grimy yet gorgeous piece of work all at the same time. lush chords and dark electronic sculptures spark an imaginary sense of euphoria as the art of dance holds your body ransom. climates: captures the sheer art and raw essence of deep underground dance. this dark beauty continues to build until your body renders itself to the rhythm, and then ultimately it fades … leaving a beautiful memory on the canvass in your mind.

wow... keith worthy is coming with some deep juicy detroit tracks! slower paced as we ve heard from him, but drenched in this intense sound that only american pressing plants seems to generate. beautiful strings are layered on the metalic basslines and tight machine percussion. both rockit science and now thats house are equaly well executed house tracks that are essential for every serious house and techno lover!

moments in rhythm is a series of cinematic snapshots taken from daily life expressed in a rhythmic fashion … this is the 1st of worthys moments in rhythm series to be released on aesthetic audio…. stay tuned

this 4th release from aesthetic audio features deep musical visions from deep dance architects juju and jordash (amsterdamn) and keith worthy(detroit) on aesthetic audio 04. juju and jordashs african flower is an epic, beautiful, deep and melodic electronic journey thru time that is sure to appeal to the deepest of heads...keith worthys atlantis (original deepstrumental mix) is a deep late night banger that has the true deep heads and dancers in mind...classic 4/4 deep house at its best! b2 is an deep and ethereal voyage that takes you to a musical place that is filled with thoughts of pure expression on the dancefloor deep house!!

with spincy cle s >drug games< about to hit the shops and the continuing success of ito & stars >sudoko kid< its time for leftroom ltd to unleash yet another monster ep, this time from the us of a.

keith worthy returns with the second release on the detroit based aesthetic audio label. she loves me not is a deeper than deep, with sweet percussion accompanying the smooth beats while the spaced out keys create a laidbadk vibe perfect for afterhours/early morning play. the alternate mental deepstrumental adds a slight techy edge to the track. beat the beat up is a typical detroit ish tech house track with moody keys over a techified beat

and so we have, >irst_te?< the word is bay area fillmore slang for >thirsty?< worthy saw it painted on a fence somewhere and made a track about it. this could be a breakout year for worthy who has already had multiple plays on radio one of his >whistler< remix and >that funkin noise< from his digital label, katabatic. >irst_te?< is bouncy and fun and it sounds kind of like it was inspired by the band in the original star wars with the alien clarinet players and the blue elephant on keys. claude vonstroke takes it darker and more techno, with an epic sounding build that could fit into almost any set

this new detroit label starts with a wonderful 3 tracker of atmospheric house music by label head keith worthy himself. thumpin, percussive detroit house with an early morning touch a must have

repress 2020 - derek carr is a name known by few and far between, with only a handful of vinyl releases in the early 2000s, he built a worthy but unfortunately not widely-spread reputation for putting together stunning deep techno. originally pressed in finite numbers, the records have recently found themselves in demand on discogs, and rightly so, derek s music is in a class of its own. having been a big fan since his releases on then local (to label owner ben) leeds label geek records, for those that knoe has dug deep into the archives to put together a sizeable selection of derek s back catalogue, with some unreleased gems dotted amongst the classic must-haves, spread across three eps part three in derek s starts with cuba, probably the most sought after track in his back catalogue. it s stunning simplicity and charming summer vibe puts it amongst derek s greatest works and understandably so. red then slots into the a2 position which was originally released under the radar on a headspace compilation. as warm as cuba but with an added touch of melancholy. truly outstanding deep house. iceberg takes things back more into techno territory with a funked up bass line, stepping rhythms, detroit strings and those trademark twinkly leads. finally penthouse apartment 3am a lush electro breakbeat track from the very hard to find trident release, rounds off the ep with aplomb

jose james presents a worthy successor to his 2013 album “no beginning no end”.

nice price deal !!! no frills, just thrills. sebastien san is back on his own ab initio imprint. time does fly when you are having fun, so this is already the sixth release of the series. and there is no hostages being taken here, because what you get is three straight bangers for darker and deeper dance floors, with that trademark sebastien san jack always keeping your feet and ears busy. >adrastea< kicks things off dark and dubby, churning away in devastating fashion for a full 12 minutes. one can easily imagine djs destroying berghain with this one. flipping over to the b-side we first find >120 bpm<, a track rooted in oldskool chicago jack with a healthy dose of claps and flangers that will be very hard to resist. closing the e.p. is >arp madness ii<, a very worthy follow-up of >arp madness<, which was a standout track on ab initio 02. intricate and devastatingly effective dance floor music.

intense electro tracks by plant43 who delivers a worthy follow up for his critically aclaimed release on frustrated funk earlier this year.
