Release Info:
We are very pleased to welcome a new artist to the Dirt Crew Recordings roster!

London based “Clive From Accounts” caught our attention with his last release on Fouk’s “Outplay” imprint in 2020 and we are excited to present you with his new EP “Cooking the Books”.

The opener “Toucan” is a lush deep house joint, mixing frantic percussion with drunken synths, and as Clive describes it himself “A bit like taking Night Nurse and going on safari”. We love the spacey atmosphere of this track so much! For “Gravitate”, Clive made a dreamy yet danceable tune using dusty old records repurposed with a sprinkling of modular percussion and trouser-flapping subs. This one really caught our attention and has a very unique style, reminiscent of early “Groove Armada” and “Röyksopp”.

The shimmering “Altar” is organic and emotional, using purely analog synthesis and “Stewart-Lee-grade repetition”, which gives this EP a deep diversity in terms of styles and sounds. Exactly what we want Dirt Crew Recordings to be in this day and age.

We top things off with a deep and subby 2-Step / House remix by our own, Toronto’s best “Dan Only”. He transformed “Toucan” into a grimey dancefloor beast, leading up towards a great breakdown where the spacey strings and pads from the original shine in an old school 90s light. Sonic delights all the way! Enjoy!

Midnight City

Taken from a new @urulu EP on @voyage-recordings. A track made for dancing in the great outdoors, opening with sparse percussion, cicadas and bird song, before the warm familiar embrace of a kick drum and wandering bassline.

Berlin-based imprint Toy Tonics, known for their lush take on the darker side of disco, welcomes one of London’s finest, Harry Wolfman, to their esteemed catalogue of producers. With dozens of timeless releases by a consistent caste of tastemakers including Coeo, Black Loops, and Kapote, Wolfman should find his latest Portal Gun EP in good company. With 9 releases under his belt already by way of Outplay, Dirt Crew Recordings, andamong others, Wolfman has some serious inertia behind his Toy Tonics debut. As long time fans and supporters of the label, we’re thrilled to premiere the forthcoming EP’s first cut, Stromboli, which is sure to grace dancefloors far and wide in the coming weeks.

The track’s ambient opening hints at Wolfman’s production prowess. Rolling like waves and chirping like birds, Stromboli’s synthesis moves with a lifelike fluidity that’s almost human. The groove to follow is similarly organic in nature, with hi hats bouncing and panning above a kick and clap backbeat like something out of Donna Summer’s session drummer.  A break-down just past the minute and a half mark introduces the main melody, an uplifting three-chord progression peeking out beneath its low-pass filter with just a hint of attitude. The beat returns and we’re treated to several more bars before a similar reduction makes room for a round, arpeggiated synth to take us toward the song’s climax. The three minutes that follow bend and twist Wolfman’s fully developed groove alongside its final element, a soulful vocal solo that ebbs and flows with intensity. Altogether, the track’s understated confidence is perhaps its most transcendental quality. I wouldn’t find this tune out of place at an after hours lounge or nestled within the night’s peak-hour playlist. Cheers to Wolfman and Toy Tonics for their continued excellence, we’re looking forward to the B-side!

PREMIERE: Dancing People - Felicidade (Nick XOA & HWRD Edit)

Here comes the second Toy Tonics EP by Joel Holmes & Cody Currie. 

The new Berlin based duo that works on a fresh musical style that combines Jazz, broken beats, Soul and NY House.
Joel, the American jazz pianist, is a former member of Roy Hargrove’s Grammy winning Jazz-Hop band and member of Carl Craig’s synthesizer ensemble. Joel is living in Berlin now, where he is involved in the new vibrant Neo-Jazz scene. (Yes! Berlin used to be a Techno city, but it’s becoming a Jazz town now!)

In Berlin Joel throws monthly jam sessions (the Urban Base Jam) where the creme de la creme of Berlins ex-pad jazz musicians meets up. Crazy things can happen here. Like when Erykah Badu played Berlin in 2019 and her complete band came to jam at Joel’s session after their gig.

Joel teamed up with Cody Currie: 24 year old London born talent, who already made waves in the house scene. Cody is known as a stylized producer, with a unique recognisable sound. Much of his craft was homed in studying a bachelors in music in London. His most known work by now might be a jazzy reinvention of ‘Devils Shoestring’ with over half a million plays on SC and YT. With his new works Cody is coming away from sampling, working only with live instrumentation.

Joel & Cody both live in Berlin now where they met Toy Tonics head honcho Mathias „Kapote“ Modica. And when they met there was a vibe instantly. All three have their roots in jazz music and share similar ideas about how dance-music should evolve in 2020.

Cody Currie & Joel Holmes - Metropolis Ft Andy K, Mikeal Acker & Desney Bailey

Coming to you live and direct from a narrow boat in the canals of Manchester, Two Tail is a master craftsman of smooth jazzy flavours - AKA the Ray Mears of House Music. So, trust him when he says: Don't Talk To Crows. With previous releases on Dansu Discs, Ad Hoc Records, Johnny Johnny and more, this may be his best work and it is a true pleasure to have him on the label. For fans of Seb Wildblood, Bonobo and Moomin, listen below.
