Barried Garden EP
Digital Release Date December 2013





SFR005-A   "It's Been So Long" 

'It's Been So Long' guides us on an excursion down a deep and dreamy path, backed by a punchy beat which invites even the most casual "Dance Music" fan to join the rest of us on the dance floor. Gentle, melodic synth tones create an early morning atmosphere to compliment the lovely, hypnotic guitar being strummed over a velvety bassline that keeps us locked in a groove. Spacey sounds echo along in the background, embracing the subtle hand drums and shaker sounds that lend an earthy ambience to the already organic feel of the track. 'It's Been So Long' works great in a nightclub setting as well as for just being a soundtrack to those nights where you just want to kick back and chill. 

Produced By Brian Gardner & Phil Barrie
Spanish Guitar By: Mateo Fabro
Keys By: Rick Gehrenbeck




SFR005-B   "Eightsixteen"

Modern House, and dubby Techno coalesce to create this intoxicating amalgamation that is 'Eightsixteen'. Layered percussion and a heavy kick drum keeps the rhythm moving along with a deep and minimal bassline that keeps the groove simple, but effective. Futuristic bubbles of sound and synth stabs echo throughout, creating a dense soundscape of atmospheric delight. 'Eightsixteen' is a well balanced piece which maintains an overall deep, moody and futuristic feel, while also managing to steer clear of being overtly dark. Fans of the deeper side of House, and Techno will both find this one to their liking.


Produced By Brian Gardner & Phil Barrie
Keys By: Rick Gehrenbeck



Originally Released on Thought Records Chicago 2002 as a Limited Blue 12" Vinyl DBL EP with additional remixes by TONE.

BTMG Presents
"The MikeALike EP"

Soul Foundation Recordings are at it again, this time with a genre defying, boundary pushing little slice of dance music heaven called the MikeALike ep. 
MikeAlike also known as k.drone & m.87 with credit exposure on MTV Radio, BBC1 radio, withÂ former singles on Ghostly International and Commercial FM.

SFR003-A
You are invited to an exclusive after party at a loft. This loft has no address, but it does have a name. Most people simply call it "Residential". At this party the most awesome unsigned, weirdo synth pop band that no one has ever heard of will be performing. The band will feature Male and Female vocalists singing over music made without a hint of irony, created on synthesizers and drum machines which the band members found while dumpster diving. Those amazing songs will sound just like this one.  
Produced by Brian Gardner & Todd Mariana as BTMG. Vocals by Mike Juliano & Brenda D 
Additional Engineering by: Jon Gordon www.jongordanmusic.com


SFR003-B

Recently dug up, and dusted off from the archives, "Drive", with it's Deep House core and Techno undertones is the most straight forward dance floor banger on the EP. Heavily processed vocals evolving under the track creates a feeling of moving forward. Fat synth and bass sounds are prevalent, keeping the track sounding as fresh as anything currently being released today, despite having been stuck in "unreleased track" limbo for more than 10 years. "Drive" can be looked at as one of those rarities that is actually pushing House Music into the future, when others are content to just recreate what has come before them. 
Original recording with William Torres aka Mystic Bill
Produced by: Brian Gardner & Phil Barrie as Barried Garden
Vocals by Mike Juliano & Brenda D

SFR003-C
"Taking Control" lose it toÂ the glorious 80's, when the 12" single was all the rage. A time when producers were really starting to experiment with sampling and often times the b-side of a single would be a song that the producers of the day made to see how much he or she could do with a sampler. Do you remember those times?. If not, take one listen to "Taking Control", a sample heavy, update of an old school groove.
Produced by Brian Gardner & Todd Mariana as BTMG in Chicago. 
Vocals by Mike Juliano

SSR088 : Brian G - Tight-N-Moody (Original Mix)

SSR088 : Brian G - Tight-N-Moody (Remix)

1. Change Request feat Chez Damier 'I Want To Go Back' Isoke's Dreamix

For the perfectly named 'Dreamix' of 'I Want To Go Back' Isoke flips the script on the Andrew Emil aka Change Request original and paints an entirely new picture of a gorgeous late night Techno landscape with the sophisticated House architecture of his home town Chicago. A warm bassline repeats over a thumping 4x4 beat. Hypnotic percussion patterns are layered over subtle, yet intricately modulated synth sounds that pan back and forth, creating a colorful ambient swirl. Chez Damier's vocals are stripped and transformed into one slowly evolving phrase, repeating 'I Am Free' in mantra like fashion, rather than the vocals being used as the focal point or as a main hook. A bold move that suggests Isoke is playing by his own rules in this dance music game.    

2. BCBG aka Bjak & Brian Gardner 'Libra Rising'

Some of Soul Foundation's finest have teamed up to bring you another RealDEEP installment entitled the 'MUXICARIA EP, by RealDEEP recording artists Brian Gardner & Bjak (otherwise known as 'BCBG') and featuring the vocals and production talents of Brenda D. These three skillful musicians have shared the decks at some of the hottest clubs across the country for well over a decade, and they're now harnessing this energy and experience in the studio to bring a fresh new direction to RealDEEP's expanding library. 'Libra Rising', by Bjak & Brian G. This track layers up the pads which swirl and rise to a frantic climax, and just when you think it might break down, hold on tight. The 'MUXICARIA ep' continues in the RealDEEP tradition by bringing you yet another quality installment of unique and original deep house music, sure to please even the most discriminating eardrums.

3. Jevon Jackson 'Sugar Loaf'

Jevon Jackson brings us an updated take on the aggressive, 'Slam Dance' house sound that was being released in Chicago on labels such as Relief, and Dance Mania in the 90's and spread like wildfire across the globe. Signature heavy kick drums and crackin' snares light a fire under the dark synth sounds bursting over menacing background ambience. No question about it, 'Sugar Loaf' is Chicago House to the core but Jevon takes this familiar sound to new places, steering clear of cliche sounds and adding some stutter step, erk and jerk trickery to the track for good measure. 

4. Brian Gardner feat. Brenda D 'Love Me'

'Love Me' has a distinct throwback, underground party sensibility, which sounds familiar, yet altogether new and contemporary. The sweet and sensuous vocal aesthetic of Brenda D, is nicely contrasted by hard hitting beats and male vocals by Brian G which float just beneath the surface, painting a picture of a flirtatious conversation between two lovers. Dubby synth stabs echo over the track, luring the listener deeper into the percussive rhythms, complimented by an evolving synth pattern and a deep, low-end bassline that play simultaneously, inviting the listener to catch the groove.

Garrett David "Gary's Circus" Housepit Chi Rec.

Stepping to the dark side, (B)... of Housepit CHI’s Various Artist EP introduces a familiar cadence, well known to Ruby & the Fitz (aka Brian and Brenda G, 2 of Chicago’s most loved UDG heroes). “The Earth Shook” brings balance to the force, with a heavy acid bassline rumbling over a dirty 707. Complete with open hats and hard hitting snares, driving a familiar dirty JAK rhythm. This composition drags you to the floor - #ElbowsUp - and begs to be fuxt with. Run it with an extended mix of *choice vocals layered in for maximum carnage.

Ruby & The Fitz "The Earth Shook" Housepit Chi Rec.

Next up on Industry Standard we have a new single from Oliver Dollar, featuring vocals from Seven Davis Jr. With this pairing of two underground heavyweights you can expect a knock out blow. On ‘Soundcheck’ Oliver delivers a boompty, jacking house track with Sev delivering a spoken word vocal talking through an all too familiar artist sound check. Up on remix duty we have Siete delivering a wicked take on the original. Whilst the groove is more stripped back it retains heaps of energy, and the intermittent melodic parts add a different unique flair. This release is not so much a concept record, as a nod to those in the industry that know the live business… This is Industry Standard after all!
