2025-06-18 - RAW CUTS x U Feel - Inland Knights Full Set - .WAV - FINAL [RAW CUTS]

Inland Knights Live @ Barcelona, Austin, Texas (02-Sep-2009)

Tribal Digs - is an ep filled with tribal and afro adventure. sounds that were other known bigger than the hot body records sound. normally we release a state of the underground but this high fueled pace release stretches a big mainstream (yet still underground) sound. after big beatport labels try to utilize sampling or congas in a way of a standpoint. hot body records on this release is trying to be only cool for what they can with a stellar tribal or other known percussive house release. Other Mamba is the release embrace of tribal sampling with spanish taste of latin house crave. Congola Dig is more of the bass heavy jive with sonic percussion. very dense congas and tribal vibes on this release from hot body records. Distributed by Label Engine - www.label-engine.com

Pulled from the vaults of Ballroom Records, Take Shelter by Tomy Wahl appears on TEN: The Archive Series, Pt. 3 — a collection dedicated to the label’s deeper, groove-driven club tracks.

Blending percussion and hypnotic flow, the track channels the subtle energy that defines Ballroom’s Minimal / Deep Tech and Tech House roots.
