Nehuen & Nick Hook - How Y´all Feeling / Work That Pussy 12" (CWS004)

Artist: Nehuen & Nick Hook
Title: How Y´all Feeling / Work That Pussy
Cat Number: CWS004
Format: 12” / Digital
Release Date: November 18th  2013 (vinyl) / November 25th 2013 (digital)

Tracklist:

A1 How Y´all Feeling (4.23 mins)
B1 Work That Pussy (4.15 mins)
B2 How Y´all Feeling  (Cardopusher E. Rave 93 Mix) (4.13 mins)

Written & Produced by Nehuen Mac Allister & Nick Hook 


Classicworks show no sign of slowing down- and their latest release,is perhaps their most high energy statement to date. Label boss Nehuen and frequent Classicworks collaborator Nick Hook join forces on this EP for an unrelenting, dancefloor-directed homage to the hard house productions of labels such as Underground Construction and Dance Mania,infused with the playfulness and sophisticated production trickery for which these two are now notorious.

'How Y'all Feeling' opens the A-side, matching steamroller sized kick drums against drug-activating vocal samples, crisp 909 hi hats and claps, punctuated by intense funk stabs and wavy analogue synth breakdowns. 

'Work This Pussy' sees the EP step up in velocity, where minimal melodies play against some serious, speaker pumping kicks, playful toms and cheeky vocal cut ups that wouldn't sound out of place on a DJ Funk mixtape.

Complimenting the B-Side is fellow label head Cardopusher's 'E-rave '93' Remix of 'How Y'all Feeling', which strips back the four to the floor pummel of the original to an early 90's jungle / hardcore shuffle.

Cardopusher / Nehuen - Split 02 (CWS005)
Artist: Cardopusher / Nehuen
Title: Split 02
Cat Number: CWS005
Format: Digital
Release Date: May 12th 2014

The latest offering from Classicworks sees label bosses Cardopusher and Nehuen lock horns for a split offering of bunker-rattling techno. Referencing their love for meditative, hypnotic rhythm patterns and analogue synths, the producers focus on simple elements and formulas to create four tracks that are an essential addition to modern warehouse rave-ups.

Things start to get rough when Cardopusher kicks in with 'Hyperwave', which sees bouncy 303s against harsh drum machine bursts. 'Heatseeker', an overdriven, lofi acid track, exposes the producers love for analogue kicks of early hardcore and techno.

Nehuen gets things deep and textural with 'Non Verbal Thinking', relying on simple progressions washed in dirty reverb and echoing squarewaves. 'Mind Chats' comes in a warehouse mood full of white noise and acid baselines.

Nehuen -02- Non Verbal Thinking (CWS005)

Cardopusher -01- Hyperwave (CWS005)

Release Date: October 6th 2014

Tracklist:

1. 1989 Warehouse
2. Police Are Coming (Emergency Mixx)
3. Mouthwash Acid
4. Police Are Coming (Nehuen's Too Late To Run Mix)
5. 1989 Warehouse (Phran Remix)

Cardopusher returns for another EP of heaters on his own Classicworks label. The producer delves even deeper into analog electronics and driving, 4x4 rhythms on his 'Police Is Coming' EP, showcasing a range of influences from percussive EBM to lo-fi warehouse acid with great aplomb.

'1989 Warehouse' kicks off proceedings with its stripped back, tape hiss flow, relying on its slow filter bassline and driving kick drums, which continue throughout the track as it journeys into industrial layering, hypnotic vocals and dark basement grooves.

The darkness and introspection of the first track is swapped out for a more urgent, analog rave attitude on 'Police Are Coming (Emergency Mixx)'. Toms and snares fly wildly around woozy sidechained pads and an acid bassline, recalling in every turn a wild 80's videogame police chase on repeat.

'Mouthwash Acid' polishes off Cardopusher's trilogy well, focussing right in on grinding 303 and staccato drum machine spurts. Taking its time to come together, this is Cardopusher at his cleverest, where seemingly disparate rhythms come together as a wavy, drug-induced whole, underpinned by unsettling vocal chants and plenty of dark, cave-like reverb.

The remixes add a welcome set of reinterpretations to the originals, with fellow Classicworks boss Nehuen flipping 'Police Are Coming' into a 3am acid anthem, with Barcelona rhythm master Phran resetting '1989 Warehouse' into a neck snapping serve of old school, saturated electro.

Support By: The Hacker, Randomer, Louisahhh!!!, Rrose, Forward Strategy Group, Skream, Funk D´ Void, Phil Kieran, Tensnake, The Black Dog, James Zabiela, Truncate, Maceo Plex, Ikonika, Mosca, Danny Daze, Groove Armada, Jonas Kopp, Bok Bok, Cassegrain, Eomac, xxxy and more.


CWS007 - Cardopusher - Police Are Coming EP (snippets). Out on Oct 6th 2014!

Release Date: Nov 17th 2014
Format: Digital / Cassette

Classicworks presents ‘Hidden Traxx EP’, the latest in their growing roster of late-night dance jams, this time with label co-conspirator Nehuen taking the controls. His music  have always demonstrated a flare for hypnotic, cyclic melodies and neck snapping drum programming, and the four track here are no exception. All the songs on this EP were recorded in one take, with the Barcelonan’s studio of voltage-powered machines and synthesizers wrapping around themselves in a shuffling tapestry of midi, lo fi electronics and plenty of the TR-707 drum machine.

‘Jam 1’ starts things off with cruisy Juno pads, eventually underpinning a slow, drum machine focussed boogie, sliding between wompy analogue bass and slippery percussion. 

The swing gets jacked into a serious twist for 'Jam 2', with its unrelenting 303 and stomping drums rising and ascending in manic triplets and pure basement tension.

'Jam 3' sees Nehuen crank the levels, pumping heavily compressed drum patterns into machine-funk work outs with a little help from NY madman Nick Hook. 

Jam 4 rounds things off angularly, taking us on a  progressively journey into heavily filtered baselines and swirling cymbal patterns in the perfect anthem for bunkers the world over. 

Supported by: Truss, Simian Mobile Disco, Pangaea, Speedy J, Forward Strategy Group, The Black Dog, Phil Kieran, Truncate, Skream, Maelstrom, Pfirter, Leon Vynehall, The Black Dog, Lucy, Djedjotronic, xxxy, Claude Von Stroke, TEED, Huxley, James Zabiela, SCNTST, Cassegrain, Komon, Groove Armada, JoeFarr, Ikonika and BNJMN.

1. Fish Dust
2. Numbing Number
3. Gourd
4. Travel

Classicworks brings you it´s ninth release with a 4 track EP by new signing and Oakland resident Worker/Parasite. Little is known from him other than he has been putting quality stuff on labels like Opal Tapes and Clan Destine Traxx. Consisting on hardware centred jams, "Exchange Value EP" focussed on lo fi house/techno excursions with acid influences keeping things crisp, dark and raw.   Opening with "Fish Dust", the track kicks in with crunchy drums to put you in the right mood when subtle acidic lines and warm pads starts to get along, perfect entrance to  the swingy, percussive and sparkling 303s on "Numbing Number". Just after, "Gourd" brings stripped sounds and cold warehouse vibes with never ending pulse synths to finally let "Travel" in, a spaced out tune with an ebm feel going straight on driven drums and square basses.

Classicworks celebrate it´s tenth release with the most extreme and out of the box part of their sound pallet,spreading the works of the eclectic Barcelona based duo Lolo & Sosaku.

From their beginning as painters, sculptors and street/video artists, they have  not stopped experimenting and pushing their capabilities. Few years ago they created wooden instruments to perform sonorous sculptures using natural forces like pendulous and electricity to make sounds.This forms part of what they would call, their “acoustic set”, which has been presented on many exhibitions and events around the globe. 

Since then, the duo has been asked to perform on clubs and electronic music festivals, for which they thought of developing an “electronic set” leaving aside the wooden instruments while keeping the spirit of the project . This is how "Super Hard Something" was conceived, a 16 track EP of harsh noise, power electronics and classic drum-machine sounds forming piles of distorted textures. Highly visceral, fast and frenetic music.

First track sees Cardopusher sending you straight in to the assembly line on “Transfiguration” with an industrial jacking dancefloor tool, following up with Nehuen´s ode to desorientation on “Learning Hologram" where an aggressive 707/303 combo collides with dizzy vocals and tense pads. Second part of the split finds Cardopusher’s “Negative Fanclub” on an acid slow jam, while Nehuen closes the EP with the threatening vibes of “The Game Has To Play Out”.

Nick Hook & Vin Sol & Matrixxman - I Can Feel It EP

Artist: Nick Hook & Vin Sol & Matrixxman
Title: I Can Feel It EP
Label: Classicworks
Cat Number: CWS003
Format: 12” / Digital
Release Date: March 25th 2013 (vinyl) / April 8th 2013 (digital)

Tracklist:

A. I Can Feel It
B1. 666 Wayz
B2. High Volume

Classicworks pull no punches in their latest installment of retro-futuristic club music, this time seeing US artists Nick Hook, Vin Sol and Matrixxxman join forces to deliver 3 tracks of straight-to-the-dancefloor ghetto house and techno. Taking inspiration from the no-nonsense simplicity of labels like Underground Construction, Trax and Dance Mania, each track keeps it simple - no silly gimmicks, drawn out drops or endless build ups - just that pure, unrelenting 909 drive.

'I Can Feel It' rides out the A side with little more than kicks, claps and a Juno baseline, resulting in an absolutely smashing club igniter, while '666 Wayz' and 'High Volume' add dense drum machine work outs along classic rave vocal loops to the B-side. An essential addition to any club DJ's late night toolbox.

Early support by: Jimmy Edgar, Brodinski, Sinden, XXXY, Maelstrom, Ikonika, West Norwood Cassette Library and many more.
