kiwi crate digger and man-of-the-moment frank booker drops two more irresistible jams for the disco deviance imprint ! riding the soulful boogie and uptempo disco vibes that mr booker loves so much, and does so well - both cuts have 100% dance floor impact. do you wanna dance?

first time i heard this track out was d.jing with adrian gibson, booker/manager for the london jazz cafe in its hay day in the early 2000s, i thought it was some crazy obscusre early jacksons 45. i had no idea what it was but i liked it and it stuck with me. as my eyes were on 45 s at the time it passed me by until numero group reissued it on their fabulous soul messengers compilation (essential purchase if you don t own). after quite a bit of badgering rob sevier, co-owner of numero group, let this grace my format of choice, so here we are, both sides first outing as a single.

elbee bad is another great underground house pioneer from the formative days of nyc house in the late eighties. the true story of house music finally gets told... tip! like the burrell brothers, elbee bad aka lamont booker, is an early house producer from new york city. and the comparison doesnt stop there. elbee bad has also recorded under different aliases and has also remained largely unknown to a wider audience. he has also recorded for nu groove records, for which he has recorded his most famous material, but like the burrells he wasnt a nu groove fixture. bad recorded for a slew of other independent new york house labels like bassment, city limits, easy street, red heat, united states of america and then there was his own larhon records

almost 25 years have past since his first release, yet >the true story of house music< is the first time elbee bads catalog gets compiled for re-release. although the best and most prolific part of his catalog is his late 80s and early 90s output, booker never stopped producing (and djing). he is currently residing in berlin, from which he still manages his studio and travels throughout europe to dj.
prior to the compilation we release a vinyl only sampler which features two exclusive and previously unreleased mixes of two tracks which are to be found on his only solo nu groove ep, from which we took the title of this compilation.
this is another winner from the true history of house music.

nova fronteira is the creation of multi-instrumentalist michele chiavarini, best known for his work as keyboardist on hundreds of productions by some of the top djs and dance acts in the world including dave lee (a.k.a. joey negro), seamus haji, mark knight, dj disciple, atfc, warren clark & booker t to name a few.
everybody loves the sunshine. dont you?

very strong release with the boogie / slomo-house groover >hope< and the irresistable hook and dub/disco feel of the more uptempo >no delay<. excellent production, this will stir up things for sure. winner!

this is the latest heatrock from atlantic conveyors super boutique untracked label and the sequel to frank bookers underground hit debut: the brothers ep. with the likes of todd terje and recloose charting the debut in their top five, this record has seeded some serious expectations. no worries there, this record totally delivers. paper cuts is kaleidoscopic sun dappled house music, with production worthy of a metro area record. get on is heavy hitting 3am disco with a drop that is...total finesse. its strictly limited (as always) and pressed on 180 gram vinyl.

sometimes it just happens. a brand new debut artist arrives, no pomp, no hype, just incredible genre defining music. frank booker is one of those rarities. an artist with a love of deep disco and even deeper house music, frank wears his passions on his sleeve without ever veering into pastiche. with this 3 tracker debut for untracked the future is bright!!

dj andy smith has been diggin deep in the archives of bgp and came back up with 24 pearls in funk, all made between 1966 and 1975. enjoy!
