excellent raw undergound house ! ace

dave aju has been a black catalogue homie from nearly the beginning and we are excited to have him on board with this fantastic, wide-ranging ep of underground house bombs. all three tracks invoke underground soul/rnb and house a la detroit legend moodymann, but with that trademark aju twist

fantastic 4 track ep of instant classics from atls stefan ringer. all bombs, all the time. tracks included: blow up, fri/sat nit, body, and overtone. out on monty lukes black catalogue label

fantastic hypnotic acid house vinyl

special dub version of mandingos original track, another night on earth. this is an extended alternate version of the original which appears on bc009_909 modern underground v.3. it sounds like a spaced out house groove with some chicago style stabs, jamaica style rubs and detroit style chords. this is a strictly limited one-sided 12 release.

third in the series this time all detroit based artists. dope underground music from the 313.

mr. fingers aka larry heard remixes of monty lukes *lonely is the night*.

there is beauty to be found in the barren streets of detroit. but they also hold an unexpected danger. solitude can sometimes make you feel like youre on another planet alien soundscapes and stark sound shape lonely beats on these lonely streets.

black catalogue is owned and operated by dj/producer monty luke. the label is a forum for underground music from around the globe. and beyond. detroit universal. this release is limited to approximately 400 copies.

this is the 4th black catalogue release. >through the galaxies< was originally released on the modern underground music sampler. this version is a full release with some great remixes by both lucy from stroboscopic and shigeto from ghostly. these mixes are fantastic, and really show a nice array of sounds. i decided to add a dub version inna future reggae stylee, too. i hope you enjoy it! - monty luke

!! vinyl only release , 300 copies only !! > modern underground music< is a collection of tracks culled from many corners of the underground. hopefully the first in a series. i want to feature a cross-section of genres, with a slew of new artists you might not be familiar with. i guess i could go the easy route and sign tracks from c2, cvs, etc. but thats not really what b/c is about

ah yes, the carter bros. the mysterious duo from down under who put out a 12 inch on rush hour recently. wild cats ep holds four cuts that represent the carter bros sound, which can only be described as an eclectic brew of dancefloor detonators. it starts out with >i didnt need you<, a devastating grower that gets into your brain and burrows a special little place for itself. forever. then, the title track, which is strictly deep, pumping and emotional vibes for the discotheque. on the flipside, >run< is skank-tastic business. already charted by the likes of radio slave and others. the ep ends with >no caller i.d.<, a track that shows the depth of talent these two brothers(?) really have. limited to 300 copies. vinyl only release

!! vinyl only , last copies left!! dj/producer monty luke kicks off his new label black katalogue. first track >tomorrow< is a sub-bass driven snapshot of one of detroits possible futures. >the next< is simply a message. >yesterday & today< takes a filtered disco hook into a future direction.
