Leeds based label Outcross records has been consistently building on its reputation as a reliable outlet for floor filling house music for a while now, and here returns with another red-hot package. This one comes from Funky Fat with remixes from label boss Miguel Campbell, MAM and Matt Hughes.

Gui Santoro, Thiago Guimarães, Rafael Cury and Manu d’Alcântara are the names behind the Brazilian band FUNKY FAT that is taking the house scene by storm. Their sound has a strong crossover appeal that’s full of deep energy and funky grooves and has so far found support with tastemakers like Solomun, Jamie Jones and Lee Foss. To date the band have released on Hot Creations and got airplay all over the world as a result.

First single ‘Ride in the City’ is a gorgeous, sumptuous bit of house music with warm, creamy beats and synths and perfect neo-soul vocals. There’s a live feel to the percussion and twinkling keys that really strike at your heart. So does the bassline, a round, bulbous affair that is supple as it is sexual: this one is sure to be one of the hits of the summer.

The first remix comes from talented label boss Miguel Campbell. As well as turning out an album on Hot Creations, so has the man done an Essential Mix in recent times. He is at the very heart of the contemporary house scene and his remix proves why. Slowing things down to a sensual crawl there is more room to breath in this mix. The lulling kicks, heavenly pads and breathy vocals all sooth your soul and scream to be played at some pool party during the summer months thanks to their perfectly libidinous vibes.

Next up is the MAM remix – MAM is Miguel and fellow Leeds man Matt Hughes whose most recent works have been remixes of Climbers, Deadmau5 and Flight Facilities, as well as putting out releases via Wolf+Lamb, Future Classic, Hot Creations and Outcross itself. Together MAM up the disco ante with arp’ed synth lines, sprinkles of cosmic dust and lazy basslines that are delightfully uplifting. Buy this EP digitally and you will also get an exclusive remix from Hughes on his own. It’s a delightfully soulful and poppy affair awash with jazz chords and plenty of sing a long vocals that will calm you down and chill your right out no matter your mood.

Funky Fat then offer up ‘So Hot’, another breezy bit of deep and pop leaning house that is impossible not to nod to. Poised bass notes, louche claps and starry night sky keys all come together to magical and mind melting effect.

This is yet another terrific EP from Outcross that will bring both boys and girls to the floor all summer long.

Soul Clap: "James Curd does it again!"
Munk: "Is JS the Frank Zappa of house? I hear them all: B52s, James Chance, Boney M, Todd Terje, Masters At Work. Great Full Pop."

In the last 2 and a half years James Curd has become a regular contributor to the label Exploited. He has released outstanding original material as well as collaborations with Morgan Phalen (their project is called Favored Nations and Morgan also wrote and sang on two singles for the Justice album 'Audio, Video, Disco'), Luke Million (from The Swiss), JDub (from Chicago) and Fred Everything (their project is called Jimmy & Fred which already had a massive dance chart topper with Diynamic act Karmon on the remix for "I See Lights" and one from Locked Groove of Life&Death, Hotflush, and Permanent Vacation fame). Now he is back on Exploited with 5 (thats already a mini-album) new tracks featuring incredible talent such as the sax player Jonty Hall or rapper Jdub. James Curd in his own words about the 5 songs:

1. James Curd - Forever My Friend
"After spending a couple months scoring a feature film I wanted to blow off some steam and make something I would like to play in a club. I love throwing curve balls into songs and try to imagine what a crowded club will do when a 16 bar rhodes solo comes out of nowhere. It's my version of a build up and drop with out the soft synths."

2. James Curd - Jack Be Nimble
"I made this song during a late night studio session right after a night out. It's a homage to my hometown classic Chicago house tracks of JACK. It's an inebriated lyrical session that captures how much fun I was having in the studio that night."

3. James Curd - Tornado In The Basement feat. JDub
"This was written in my old Chicago basement studio with JDub. All the kids in my neighbourhood were around the same age and growing up together. They all graduated from riding bikes and playing in the fire hydrant to an all out EGG war. Every house on my street was getting hit with eggs! Tornado In The Basement is a product of trying to record vocals inbetween the loud bangs of eggs hitting the front windows of my building."

4. James Curd - Everybody Knows feat. Jonty Hall
"This song is a culmanation of a few ideas that where not working as individual songs but came together great as a mosaic piece of music. I chopped up all my favorite parts from a few songs and combined them to create "Everybody Knows". A great horn player from Australias capital city Canberra was in town visiting and he dropped by and did a few takes for me to finish off the song."

5. James Curd - Caught Again feat. JDub
"This is inspired by old French funk songs from the 70's. I wanted a mix of funk with light and dark elements. The bass is funk, the guitar and synths are light and JDub's vocals are dark and a bit intimidating."

"Floating" is the forthcoming single from Brooklyn based singer, songwriter, and producer Mattie Safer. The former singer/bassist for The Rapture comes back strong with a new track he made with Filip Nikolic (Poolside/Turbotito) that blends the classic feeling of New York's Paradise Garage with a modern electronic sound. Lyrically, "Floating" contemplates an escape to the cosmos, where we can transcend our arguments and differences to find a common humanity.

The third release on Safer's Dream City Sounds imprint, "Floating" is an instant classic and will be released across all platforms on July 28th.
