The names Gravy, Jon Gravy.

Shaken, not stirred, and always sounding best when liberally splashed upside the ravey, Gravy has enjoyed an astronomical rise over the last few years on labels such as theBasement Discos, Step Back Trax and his own Gravy Trax. Fresh from his debut album release 'X To Love', the South African-rooted/Vienna-raised artist makes his debut on Pets with 'Motion 7'.

Bounding across some of the sturdiest pillars in this music, across four tracks Gravy lays down a history lesson of supreme groove proportions. 'Relief' sets the euphoric tone with its emotional bicep-flexing chords, springy breaks and that essential floating-in-space sensation synonymous with the early 90s. It rolls deep in the best company: 'Motion 7' pays homage to house music's sexiest quarters with a strong Chicago jack and a velvet French filtered touch while 'Forever' touches down in Detroit with its iced out synth strings and a relentless bassline.

Finally we're pushed over the edge by 'Pushin'. A bubbling slab of disco house with all the right vocals and orchestration, it's an emotional end-of-night moment-in-waiting. Push the boat out and spread liberally - Gravy is every bit as tasty as his name suggests

Liverpool based DJ & production team Matrefakt drop a heavyweight EP on Richy Ahmed’s Four Thirty Two label with the ‘Quad’ EP.  French house impresario Phil Weeks delivers a first-rate remix to boot.

The duo have been making big waves over the last couple of years with releases on Sous Music, Skream’s Of Unsound Mind, Shall Not Fade and their own Attitudes To Life label, and continue their ascendency with a new release on Ahmed’s Four Thirty Two imprint.

Hi-octane piano vibes are served up on title track ‘Quad’, as the roots of Chicago house are served up on this frenetic and funky cut.  ‘Instinct’ sets up a smooth and seductive vocal driven groover, whilst ‘Love 2 C’ pumps hard as chic guitar licks and choppy vox lift this jackin’ track superbly.

As founder of Robsoul Recordings, Phil Weeks has been dishing up faultless house tunes for the last two decades, becoming synonymous with the Chi-town sound that has influenced him and become the mainstay sound on his label, releasing bombs from the likes of Derrick Carter, DJ Sneak, Mike Dunn and Gemini alongside his own slammin’ productions.  His remix of ‘Love 2 C’ recycles the original into a hypnotic and low-slung MPC jam!

A1 Kill Da Worm

Following the success of ‘Vamp’ last year, Rejected co-boss Edwin Oosterwal returns to the controls for two more pristine, floor-focussed late night grooves.

First up is a homage to Chicago’s deepest foundations and the warehouse-shaking legacy of Jesse Saunders’ Dance Mania. Lean and direct; “Bleep” is all about the relentless jack, palpitating sub and crazed lead tone that tweaks and freaks with visceral effect. Its minimal construction but hooky riff ensure slay-status at festivals and Ibiza this summer.

As with previous Oosterwal dispatches, contrast is key. Keeping his sound firmly in the US but travelling due west to Jersey, the warm organ-primed tones of ‘Babe’ soothe the ‘Bleep’-sizzled edges of our soul as a driving, loopy vocal sample and shimmering synths develop more and more momentum, developing into a deep hypnotic heads-down groove.

Consummately covering two completely different shades of the night with two cuts beginning with B, Edwin has delivered some A* cuts right here. Reject them at your peril.

ALDEN TYRELL & GERD - LUV THANG (FT JESSY ALLEN) OUT NOW ON 4LUX

My latest release is out now. Get it here: https://rejectedrcrds.lnk.to/REJ097

A lifelong student at the school of Dance Mania, deft in the dialogue of machine soul: Edwin Oosterwal is driven by timeless soul-laced house and techno. Rooted in the fundamental elements, he’s been entrenched in sonic science since his residency at one of The Netherlands’ longest standing club nights: Basic Grooves.
 
A DJ first and foremost, with over 20 years of stripes to his name including residencies at iconic Amsterdam clubs Trouw and Studio 80 and past performances at key festivals such as Awakenings and Mysteryland and world class clubs from Fabric to Panorama Bar, his ability to fuse between house and techno hits with an insatiable jacking energy. He has a knack of weaving stark stripped-back troughs and dizzying physical peaks; a dark art that’s reflected in everything else he does…

As a label co-boss behind Rejected and Green (imprints he founded with friend and fellow groove craftsman Joris Voorn), the output is characterised by direct dancefloor tracks laced with longevity and strong sense of groove. Releases come courtesy of an array of respected acts ranging from Josh Butler to Steve Rachmad via Ian Pooley, Michel De Hey and of course Edwin himself who has developed a centre-stage role in the label’s output in recent years.

Initially emerging as a producer in the mid 2000s, Edwin’s taken his time to truly hone his craft and steadily build a sonic signature that flexes from deep subtlety to visceral body-shifting energy with an elasticity that resonates through house, techno and all the artful shades between and has been supported by the likes of Loco Dice, Eats Everything and Kölsch. Whether it’s his exciting dub techno project States Of Flux with Roland Klinkenberg or his solo work, his releases shimmer with an ageless aesthetic that’s coded deep into everything he does from the all-out Chicago-style tone hypnosis of ‘Bleep’ to the iced-synth mysticism of ‘Vamp’ via the stately jacks of ‘Elasticity’ and beyond.

Now adding to his roles as DJ, artist and label owner, Edwin can also be spotted broadcasting on Amsterdam radio station Radio Nachtlab with a monthly two hour session Time To Jack. Another way to express his passion for machine soul and his dexterity as a DJ, Edwin’s quest for timeless soul-laced house and techno continues…
