Release Info:
After a little summer break we are back with another exciting new artist on Dirt Crew Recordings. This time we welcome Australian born and Berlin based Marcus Holder to our little label family. Combining a wide range of influences, he has jumped between multiple musical projects throughout the years. Beginning as a saxophone player in early high school, Marcus then graduated to become a metal guitarist. Early adulthood saw him take an interest in electronic music which led to buying a pair of turntables. As a DJ, he has played extensively throughout the Melbourne scene which saw him hold residencies at some of the city's most famous clubs. This love of electronic music led him to Berlin where he resides now.

All tracks in the release were made during various forms of lockdown in Berlin. In his own words : “This time really did wonders for my music production as it helped me to focus with fewer outside distractions. During this time I moved into a real studio with nice monitors and a sound-treated room. I worked on my mixdown skills and developed confidence in my tracks. I developed a sound that combines classic sounds with a modern twist. I like to play most of the instruments to give it a looser, more live kind of feel. A more human element.“ The über-groovey title track „After“ is opening this EP with a nice deep feel and gentle contrast between the crunchy bassline and the jazzy piano chords.

Followed by the floaty “WEH”, another lush deep mover with plenty of funk added in that bassline, topped with dubby drum elements and vocal snips this one is a true afterhours jam in our opinion, loose and mysterious. The third track “The Fluff” is a pure good times tune, with its beautiful chords melody and open arrangement it is the perfect late summer jam. Closing out this debut EP Marcus treats us to a nice slo-mo, spaced out track steering us out in the night with its deep swelling pads and gentle pace. Enjoy!

Energy (Waajeed's Doughboy Mix)

Download/Vinyl/Stream: https://toy-tonics.lnk.to/Lucas

The 14 tracker will land via Berlin’s Toy Tonics label and glides from disco to jazz, house and funk and features key collaborations with the likes of Jitwam, Eliza Rose, Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange & his close friends. After having met Mathias Kapote Modica, creative mind behind Germany’s well respected Toy Tonics label three years ago, East London born Cody Currie understood Kapote and his international TT Crew have the perfect understanding for his talents and share the same visions and so Cody joined the TT crew and released three EPs with the German label. Now finally he steps up to present his highly anticipated debut album ‘Lucas’. The 14 track LP is set for release 21 October 2022, with a string of pre-singles to drop until then. The roots of Cody’s artistry runs deep, hailing from Leytonstone in East London by his father a fashion designer and his Spanish mother a music writer, it was inevitable that Cody would follow suit in the world of creativity. Curries keen ear and penchant for retro disco licks, chopped keys, and broken beats have landed him also with 1 off releases on other notable labels like Razor-N-Tape, Dan Shake’s Shake Records. The past few years Cody found himself in the midst of a fresh and unique buzz, taking over Europe, predominantly in Berlin and London, as he bridges the gap between jazz and house music with his energetic DJ sets, talented instrumental skills and effortless swag. Playing the big Toy Tonics Jam happening all over Europe and similar to other artists on the TT label‘connecting the dots’ between live and electronic music has garnered Cody a range of support in the press and radio world with fans including Pete Tong, Rolling Stone, Jamz Supernova, Mixmag and Gilles Peterson, with some journalists describing him as "The Tom Misch of jazzy house". This debut album, like his EPs, represents the new essence of jazz burgeoning out of London’s youth scene of today. Cody doesn't use any samples, only live instruments, vocals and great chord combinations, a nod towards his music school studies in London before moving over to Berlin. Like most of the other artists on Toy Tonics and similar to Kapote himself, Cody comes from playing jazz piano and playing in bands and combines this real musician’s attitude and knowledge with his skills as an electronic producer and extremely talented DJ/selector. This combination of background and skills create that unique sound that Cody (and many Toy Tonics artists) have. On Lucas, Cody defines his work by enjoying the collaborative process with other talented artists such as Eliza Rose and Ziggy(Freedom Zeitgeist Energy Exchange), as well as some of Cody’s close personal friends like Jitwam, Ally McMahon, Andreas Konand more. Currie comments on the album, saying:“Lucas LP is a collection of tracks which I've either done myself around the world recording in different places, or collaborating with my friends. The music reflects my enjoyment of the musical process, and I'd say it’s inspired a lot by George Duke and Frank Zappa, the disco and funkier stuff from the 70s and 80s. Some tracks are quite deep and introspective, whilst other ones are more fun and silly, like ‘That Stick’. Ultimately, the album focuses on artists from
everywhere around the world with different backgrounds and styles, to see what we can create together!”–Cody Currie

“Here I created the drums first, using a combination of different breaks and fills to get a richly syncopated rhythm. I used a Rhodes emulation for the chords, to bring on that sense of emotion, and I love the last one in particular. It creates suspension between the rest, making it the charm of the track in my opinion. The vocal comes from the movie New Jersey Drive, and I cut it to match the rhythm section.” - DJ
Psychiatre.

"There’s an inherent breakbeat sentiment to Don’t F*** With My Groove. From weighty percussion to dreamy, spaced-out chords, DJ Psychiatre strikes a fine balance between the two, resulting in a trip hop inspired cut that sounds as fresh as it does classic. Perhaps such familiarity comes from the repeating New Jersey Drive vocal and the warmly textured hum of hats and hip-hop rhythms, married in a state of surreal, club-inspired bliss."

PREMIERE: DJ Psychiatre - A Little Treat

Download/Vinyl/Stream: https://toy-tonics.lnk.to/BabysBerserk

There are many shades of funk in dance music. Berlin’s Toy Tonics label brings up artists that reflect many of these different aspects of dance music. Now the label comes up with a band! A band that is inspired by 1980ies New Wave as well as the Y2K Indie dance scene. Two guys and two girls from Amsterdam and Montreal called Baby’s Berserk.
Baby’s Berserk is about taking the freedom to be who you want to be, about being comfortable. Having played in all-girl punk bands since the age of 14, the bands singer Lieselot is an expert on female empowerment. “Dress like a girl and act like a boy,” is a catchphrase she lives up to every day and it clearly is a message that resonates with the band’s wild fans.
In the great tradition of Roxy Music, Throbbing Gristle and Malcolm McLaren, Baby’s Berserk is not just about the edgy music but also about a very strong own visual style. They readily blend their sounds with underground fashion. What you see is what you get and seeing Baby’s Berserk is feeling right at home. Lieselot is a visionary when it comes to stage presence. Have you always wanted to see an electronic band with a punk attitude perform wearing a mix of haute couture and Flintstone-style rags? Look no further, it’s Baby’s Berserk.
Following on the critically acclaimed singles ‘What I Mean’ (2020) and ‘Toxic Kisses’ (2022), Baby Berserk’s highly anticipated self-titled full-length is now finally about to see the light on Berlin’s Toy Tonics records. Sonically designed for gritty rock venues as well as up-to-date edgy dance clubs, Mano’s lush compositions smoothly intertwine with the highly associative lyrics written by Puggy and Lieselot. Poets and literary addicts may think they’ve just discovered the rock & roll equivalents of Sylvia Plath, Kurt Vonnegut and Allen Ginsberg. To tell you the truth: their wild guess is pretty accurate as the works by these greats lie scattered around the Baby’s Berserk studio for inspiration.
The band was born in a laboratory back in 2019. Tired of being in bands with unruly and unpredictable humans, Mano Hollestelle set out to create a group of high precision robots to create the post-punk sound he had in mind. His outdated technology of floppy disks and cassette tapes worked well to program the androids, until one day a 90s rave mixtape was mistakenly entered into his computer. House music is a feeling and the punk bots instantly got hooked on it upon hearing it for the first time. They could never be reset to factory settings again. Mano worked tirelessly with his androids, currently known by their humanoid names of Lieselot Elzinga, Puggy Beales and Eva Wijnbergen, to fulfill his evil plan to make the rockers dance and the dancers rock. Baby’s Berserk is the fiendish extension of this plot. Beware, the band’s bass driven grooves and computerized beats have been known to cast a spell upon all within earshot.
So what do the songs on ‘Baby’s Berserk’ tell you? That it’s totally fine to have lots of fun in life! To have a boyfriend as an accessory (‘Accessories’), to get inspired by Sponge Bob (‘Dancing with the Fish’) and to blend your spirits with mixers whenever the hell you feel like it (‘Rum ‘n’ Kola’).
Baby’s Berserk member Puggy Beales on ‘Limousine’: “Decant the wine from my tip jar to yours. Soon we'll be on easy street, chauffeured home from the rat race each evening. Is it everything you'd hoped it would be?”
Check not only the debut album but also the forthcoming Remix EP with remixes by Each Other, Niklas Wandt, Sam Ruffillo, Kris Baha and Nicolini.

Album released: 29.09.23

Baby's Berserk - Eat Your Dollar

Down Jazz Records was founded by producer David Schwartz and is a boutique label from New York & Detroit, that crafts neo-soul, R&B, nu-jazz, chilled down house, and electronica. Here the label presents us with a super-heavyweight remix EP entitled ‘Rocket Love’ by multi storied talent collective, Detroit Rising.
Detroit Rising is a collection of artists comprised of 10 groove masters including the current and original members of Parliament-Funkadelic, Prince, Public Enemy and Mary J Blige. In 2018, the collective took a break from their relentless touring schedules and stepped out in a whole new direction, creating a hybrid sound of funk-jazz with injections of soul and hip hop resulting in an album entitled “A Cosmic Jazz Funk Adventure”. It was recorded live at the Motown affiliated United Sound Studios in Detroit and various other studios across America.  Lifted from the album the ‘Rocket Love Remix EP’, benefits from a handpicked selection of some of the top DJ producers in the UK brought together to create a soulful house and nu-jazz hybrid edition that features Jimpster, Kaidi Tatham, Sean McCabe with Z records (Dave Lee) and EVM128 – with mastering by UK wizard Atjazz.

First up, Jimpster remixes the Detroit Rising space opera, ‘Rocket Love’, showcasing two funk-fused house tracks with guitar licks from Duminie Deporres (Public Enemy) and bass lines courtesy of Kern Brantley (Mary J Blige, Beyonce, Aretha Franklin). The vocal remix is expertly laced with parts of the original P-funk instrumental and hip-hop vocals, with the dreamy ‘Dub’ version letting that infectious hook and melody hit hard.  Next up, Sean McCabe was brought in by Dave Lee to remix the original Detroit hit ‘Little Bit of Love’  into a fast-paced dance heater. King of the keys Kaidi Tatham is then welcomed to remix two different Detroit Rising tracks, creating a double dose of signature, broken beat infusions. ‘Our world’ stars P-funk vocalist and keyboard wizard Danny Bedrosian, alongside granddaughter of George Clinton, Tonysha Nelson. The emotive, soulful broken brilliance of ‘ Peace & Harmony’ also gets the Kaidi treatment starring Sue Ann Carwell and Steve Boyd, vocalists for Prince and Kool & The Gang respectively.  Finally, EVM128 of Co-op fame rounds off the package presenting a fast and futuristic bruk beat version from the romantic Detroit Rising cut ‘Gorgeous’.
