Time to welcome more new, undiscovered talent to the fold, this time we give you Sheffield producer thatmanmonkz with an amazing EP entitled Please Don’t Slip, Trip Or Fall Off. thatmanmonkz came to our attention last year when his track That Would Be Alright appeared on Tone Control Music. The low-slung, bluesy inflections combined with Moodymann-esqe vocals and deep pads had us instantly hooked so when he presented us with three brand new tracks for Delusions Of Grandeur we literally bit his hand off.

On the A side we have Girl I Know It which, if ever we’re asked to define a D.O.G sound, pretty much sums it up perfectly. The whole track is built around a super-fat, looped up bassline which adds a real energy and drive. Chuck in a great vocal hook, flapping kicks and rattling hats and you’ve got a peaktime smash which sounds completely fresh whilst staying true to the blueprint of classic house.

Flip over for Blowin’ My Mind which nudges down the BPM a touch for an amazing jazz-inflicted mid-tempo house jam. Once again, thatmanmonkz lets his hip-hop roots shine with MPC beats laying the foundation for the raw bass samples and dusty rhodes.

Finally, things get super-sultry on Be With Me featuring the vocals of Dnae. Compressed pads set the mood on this lovely, soulful number but once again, things are kept raw, fresh and bumpy thanks to the beat programming skills of thatmanmonkz. We absolutely love this release and hope you share our excitement in the obvious talent of this UK producer.

quintessentials 65: various artists - marc bianco, effgee, wearing shoes feat. javonntte, roy vision - enjoy your cuppa (vol. 1)
12"/digital out early/mid may.

Quintessentials has a long history in putting out those nice little (or sometimes big…) compilations. It was “deep, raw and real”. Then “thank you freaks”. After that “gentlemen cuts”. Now it’s “enjoy your cuppa”! Vol. 1 starts with 4 new and refreshing faces on Quintessentials. Marc Bianco is for sure no newcomer, as he’s a part of the famous Moonrise Hill Material crew with Folamour and other top french producers. “Wet Scott” is a smooth yet freaky tune with tight beats in a best MB manner. 
For german Effgee, “feels like ding” is his first track ever released. Happy lad! And we’re sure it won’t be the last. Italian air man Wearing Shoes is quite new to the scene, but has a quite impressive list of releases already. For Quintessentials, he teams up with…well yeah, Javonntte (check his two Quintessentials releases, 59 and 61). Proper house music guaranteed! Last but not least, Roy Vision (another french artist who just released on Roots for Bloom) goes deep and dusty, with lovely Rhodes and snares! We hope you enjoy your cuppa!

quintessentials 67: greymatter - sans rouge EP
12/digital out late august/early September

The „Sans rouge EP“ is a return to Greymatter’s sampling roots reminiscent of his early works on WOLF Music. A record that sits half way between house and hip hop, in terms of style and tempo. „Sans Rouge“ epitomises that mood: starting out with a hip hop groove that drops into a beat-down house chugger. „Royale“ drops things down to an even slower motion with another tough beat down groove, chopped and driven key samples and a catchy vocal chop. The B-side start with a nice goodie: this is the first time that the full length/12” mix of „Move Slow“ has a proper release (the short version appears on the „7 years who cares?“ 2x7“ on WOLF Music). Greymatter’s most popular track of recent years - more heavy soul chops this time pitched more towards peak time. „Billy O“ finishes things off with a slamming, choppy club jam laiden with strings and vocals. Another mighty fine Quintessentials release that shows all the talent of Greymatter!
