Roland Leesker's latest essential single on Get Physical comes with huge remixes from bonafide house legends Terrence Parker and K'Alexi Shelby. 

As Managing Director at Get Physical, Roland Leesker has always been a vital force. As an artist, he is in a fine run of recent form having put out singles like last year's 'Circuit Funk' and 'No Way Out' with Neil Barber, as well as collaborating with Roland Clark on ‘WTF!’ and crafting a standout cover of ‘Crazy.’ His timeless sounds never fail to bring something fresh to the floor, and that is the case once more here. 

The powerful 'Haus Music' is a muscular track with stiff stabs, prickly percussion and rock solid kicks. Old school energy abounds as a vocal repeats the title over and over and the big piano chords build the pressure. Once the drop comes, it is sure to blow the roof off any dance floor. 

First to remix is long time Detroit talent Terrence Parker. Best known for his gloriously feel-good 'Your Love' single, he always brings uplifting spiritualism and true gospel emotion to his work. Here he layers in those elements once more with warming organ chords, locked-in grooves and chunky drum funk that will appeal to all house heads. 

K'Alexi Shelby is a Windy City great who makes bumping, raw and visceral house music both solo and with the likes of Larry Heard and Robert Owens. The vital veteran goes for an acid-laced, bumping remix that is packed with synth energy and clipped drums that will inject high energy into any set. 

'Haus Musik' is a timeless package that joins the past, present and future.

Out now on Rekids: lnk.to/REKIDS205

Mona Yim debuts on Rekids with ‘Gotta Do This, Gurl’, featuring remixes from Radio Slave.

Born and raised between Singapore and Germany and now based in Berlin, Mona Yim spent time bouncing between the clubs of London, Berlin, and Paris while honing her craft, culminating in a recent remix for DJ Seinfeld’s ‘Tell Me One More Time’ on Ninja Tune. Now readying her debut solo release on Rekids, Mona Yim delivers two dreamy house cuts for the imprint, backed with a pair of remixes from label-boss Radio Slave.

Leading the release, ‘Gotta Do This, Gurl’ brings crispy, bouncing drums alongside moody pads and subtle vocal chops, building up to an emotive breakdown. Radio Slave beefs up the drum patterns with breakbeats for his remix, adding additional atmospheric FX to existing melodic elements for a chunky, driving track. 

‘Dots Obsession’ sees floaty percussion, gentle synth work and vocals working in tandem to craft a soft yet evocative house jam. Injecting a pumping 4/4 pattern alongside elements of the original, Radio Slave’s interpretation brings the energy levels up with pitch-perfect dub FX and swirling synthesis.

Taken from Dilla's 2001 BBE Music debut solo album Welcome 2 Detroit, 'Big Booty Express' gets the remix treatment from German duo Âme, Parisian Pépé Bradock and London's Coda Deep.

Alongside the OG version these new productions add up to a six track exploration of Dilla's tribute to Detroit's melding of the Motor City's Black music heritage with Kraftwerk's experimental Euroelectro.

Contributing two mixes to the EP, Parisian producer Pépé Bradock AKA Julien Auger first forays into music were after learning guitar as a 14 year old and playing with various Jazz- Funk bands. At this time he also started DJing with Hip-Hop bands and turning his hand to producing their tracks.

As the 90s progressed he also discovered Techno and House music. His musical influences range from Jazz to Dub Reggae and he has remixed for Blaze, Cassius and Alex Gopher among others.

Also providing a remix of Big Booty Express is the German production duo of Frank Wiedemann and Kristian Beyer who work together under the name of Âme. After first meeting in Kristian's record shop in their home town of Karlsruhe and bonding over a shared love of Chicago House and Detroit Techno the pair started working together and producing records for Sonar Kollektiv in 2003.

The final two remixes on the Big Booty Express EP and only included on the digital package come from the Londoner Coda Deep. Influenced by avant-garde Electronica, Nu Wave and African Tribal sounds, he is a DJ and producer playing deep and melodic Tech and Techno and will also be known to music fans for his 2019 BBE release 'The Running of the Bulls'.

This EP of remixes sits very well alongside the catalogue of J Dilla releases on BBE Music and adds to the rich heritage of innovative beat making and music production that we can associate with Dilla and those he worked with.

Get Physical's Roland Leesker returns to the label with a storytelling new single that comes with a remix from Confidential Recipe. 

This is Leesker's second outing on the label this year after February's timeless 'Haus Musik' package. That was the latest in a small but carefully curated series of releases from the artist who has seen recent remixes from Scan7, Terrence Parker and Francesco Tristano and never fails to infuse classic sounds with new school ideas. 

This new single is informed by a Japanese legend of the Heian Period in the late 10th century. Ibaraki-doji, a notorious Oni, resided at Rashomon Gate in Kyoto and harassed people who tried to pass through the gate until a heroic samurai named Watanabe no Tsuna subdued the creature. The battle raged on until Tsuna drew his katana and severed the arm of the demon. A few days later, an elderly woman claiming to be Tsuna's aunt came to visit him and asked her nephew to recount how he fought with the oni. Tsuna mentioned that he had Ibaraki-doji's severed arm in his possession and his aunt was curious to see it. When he revealed the arm, his aunt unveiled herself as Ibaraki-doji in disguise. She grabbed the arm and escaped from Tsuna's mansion. However, even after retrieving the arm, Ibaraki-doji never returned to dwell at Rashomon Gate again. 

The 'The Demon at Rashomon' single musically depicts this tale and comes with epic artwork that brings the story visually to life courtesy of Rio based artist Paula Lles. The record has a body-popping, electro-infused and breakbeat-driven groove that will fire up any dance floor. The bass is big and powerful and the turbulent synths, acid squelches and yelping vocals all bring a battle-ready vibe. It makes for a unique and high-impact tune from Leesker who once again co-produced this with Neil Barber at Hot Kitchen Studios in Berlin. 

Venezuela's pioneering rave ambassador Confidential Recipe remixes and brings with him a fresh mix of tech, electro and house. He has landed on labels like Rekids and RSPX and shows why here. His take is a warm, big and bouncy acid cut with silky drums and vocal yelps adding extra intensity to the groove. 

This is a brilliantly colourful package from Get Physical.

Ahead of the release of Cook Strummer's Berlin Gets Physical in September comes the first of two EPs from it. 

Berlin-based Cacao Records bosses and brotherly duo KEENE are behind the opening track. They are regulars on labels like Connected and have a deep and spiritual house sound. That is the case here with the dynamic drums and chunky bass of 'Ecoute' which comes with Afro vocals and loose, organic percussion. It's a fantastically atmospheric affair followed by a collaboration between two more Berlin based artists Los Cabra & Manuel Sahagun. 

They mix organic rhythms and electronic tension on labels like Bar 25 Music and Stil Vor Talent. Here, their 'Italian Groove' is a crisp tech house offering with snappy snares and tight drums. Once they have you locked in, a rugged bass synth signals take off while ever more lush and cosmic synths colour the airwaves. It's an expansive and high energy track to ignite any DJ set. 

This superb EP is a great taster of the full compilation to come.

On our radar for some time, Berlin outfit Eins Tiefer eventually join the fold with their 7th EP for Upon You, 'Bear Market'.

Exponents of a sound that merges an enthralling sense of melodic escapism with spontaneous floor combustion, the pair has us surfing raucous sine waves and untamed envelopes with sustained panache and invention throughout.

The epitome of heavy-duty techno-house, 'Bearflag' packs an undeniably brutalistic, steel-clad punch whilst retaining that touch of weirdo funk / eerie body music swagger that shall get crowds quivering in an otherworldly sense of ecstasy.

'Seriously' pursues a further clinical and stealthy route, treating us to a hot spring of face-melting machine howl and elastic bass bounce, sure to trigger off maximum response from its raving audience. Handed over to Daniel Trabold, the track trades its churning rhythmic assets for a straightforward train-like chug, boiling up to further impressive, epic amplitude. Wrapping up this much dynamic jaunt into Eins Tiefer's ever mischievous headspace,

'Tunewalk' rolls its hips to a finely engineered mix of Afro-laced sensuality, piano house tropes and opaque hardware hoodoo, altering them beyond recognition to paint a pulsating tableau in motion that shall not feel out of place either in a peak-time setting, nor when the after kicks in and the blur in your eyes expands into your soul.
