A “Coffee Time”
This track got a strong character with a bumpy combination of a catchy vocal chorus and a jazzy horn samples. It’s a track that is so simple but still contains so much music.

Can't Seem To Hide 12" (Ubiquity Records)

Cant Seem To Hide ft. Megan Doherty

Play It Down brings together many of its veteran artists for the 100th release, which, in the current incarnation of the label, will also be its last.

A word from Jesse Rose:
“It’s been an amazing rollercoaster of a ride with Play It Down and when asked why I would stop releasing in its current incarnation the answer was obvious. I’ve always been very involved in the A&R process of all the releases. I’ve always felt confident to tell an artist if something should be taken out or added because I have spent (near enough) every weekend for the last two decades in a club, listening and playing House music. I would test the demos in my sets and know automatically what felt right and what felt wrong. If I’m not playing in clubs it wouldn’t feel right for me to tell someone who is playing shows every weekend how their record should sound. And ultimately, Play It Down for me has been about finding music I've wanted to play in my sets. So for the minute it’s a massive thank you to all the artists, fellow DJs, supporters, club-goers,
distributors, journalists, radio presenters, interns, promoters, bootleggers, and to Laura (who has worked day-in & day-out overseeing near every part of the label for the past five years) for letting us come up with dreams that all of you have helped make a reality.
This Play It Down 100 compilation album of original tracks brings back all the current roster to collaborate and a few tracks written solo by some of our key artists. It was a very enjoyable process to see what they would all come back with.”

Watchin Out

Today Is the Day (Linkwood Chop)

Meet Me On The Corner is taken from the album ‘Orange Whip’ which was BBC 6 Music’s Album of The Day on its release. A pounding beat beefed up by bass, guitar and brass, propels forward while ‘Ríoghnach Connolly’ (pronounced Rainer) sings lyrics that could be straight out of the playground, but suggest something a little deeper.

Here is a remix from the legends of funky house music, ‘Crazy P’ with both vocal and dub versions. Turning Honeyfeet’s latest opus into a straight up soulful disco monster by ‘Hot Toddy’ and ‘Ron Basejam’, with Rioghnach’s rasping vocals playfully meandering over crisp beats and trademark live bass.

Released on Record Store Day 2019, the 5th release on BBE offshoot ALIM Music comes courtesy of London-based multi-instrumentalist and bandleader Claudio Passavanti, aka Sunlightsquare.

This special ’45 features two incredible Sunlightsquare cover versions commissioned by BBE and Alim founder Peter Adarkwah. First up is ‘Hanging Tough’, an obscure Latin disco-jazz cut written by Vinnie Griffin and originally recorded by Board Of Directors back in 1987. Claudio’s stunning piano and synth work takes centre stage in this effervescent version, which also features backing vocals from London duo HanLei.

On the flip is a rendition of Rodney Franklin’s 1980 hit ‘The Groove’, a staple among jazz-funk aficionados to this day. Sunlightsquare’s take on the track also boasts original vocals from HanLei alongside virtuoso keys and flute, plus super-tight brass and rhythm sections.

Founded in 1996 by Peter Adarkwah, Barely Breaking Even (BBE Music) started life as a London club night, taking its name from the eponymous Disco record by the Universal Robot Band.

The label grew from the vibrant early 90's club scene with its first release, Stop & Listen compiled by Dr Bob Jones in 1996, opening the door to iconic series' such as All Back To Mine & Late Nite Tales.

A tonne of releases followed, ranging from Disco to Funk, Jazz to House. In the year 2000, the label celebrated Masters at Work's 10th Anniversary with a mighty box set that featured near 80 tracks.

A year later BBE Music spawned the Beat Generation Series of artist albums, notably introducing J Dilla (Welcome 2 Detroit) & a young Will.I.Am's first solo outing, alongside DJ Jazzy Jeff, Madlib & DJ Spinna, all of whom contributed to this seminal set of long players.

A quarter of a century and well over 500 titles later, having worked with Mark Ronson, Roy Ayers, Questlove, Hugh Masekela, DJ Premier, Dimitri from Paris, Joey Negro, Kon, RZA, Laurent Garnier, Black Coffee, DJ Shadow, David Rodigan and John Morales among many others, BBE Music looks to the future, celebrating its rich heritage while continuing to release a bounty of fresh titles.

The label’s most recent projects include an expansive reissue series from pioneering Nigerian label Tabansi, new imprint ‘Batakari’ in association with Boddhi Satva and the critically acclaimed ‘J Jazz’ Japanese Jazz multi-album project, not to mention the recent landmark 500th label release: a brand new version of 'Barely Breaking Even', featuring Leroy Burgess, Patrick Adams and Louie Vega.

In 2021 BBE Music is celebrating its 25th anniversary. To mark this milestone, the label is offering up some special projects, from the 20th Anniversary edition of J Dilla’s ‘Welcome 2 Detroit’, through David Bowie tribute album ‘Modern Love’, to a special new ‘Worldwide’ compilation from old friend Gilles Peterson. BBE Music will also be looking to the future with more exciting original artist projects, plus merch collaborations events and more...
