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.

Complementing their eponymous party series, Luv Shack Records have brought together
a group of new and regular artists for their first "Shack Your Body" compilation. With an array of nine choice cuts, this compilation offers just the right blend of laid back chuggers, disco stompers and more aggressive house tracks that have made their label nights so popular.

Kicking things off, the young viennese newcomer Giuseppe Leonardi brings together light hearted chicago house vibes and modern beatdown on "It's Drivin' Me". 

On "Got It", Space Echo take us back to the halcyon days of disco, striking a similar note to their smash hit Soul Power, albeit this track being a bit more stripped down and synth infused.

"Another Bite (Dub Mix)" marks the first appearance of Redscape - a collaboration between Functionist and MOTSA. In an effort to channel the funkier side of house, the two producers combine classic rhodes, moog bass and an array of disco samples in a fashion that will inevitably tingle your toes.

Burnin' Tears are bringing their sound to a new level with "Nights Of Horror". The track builds on a solidly organic drum groove and a relentless electric bass to become a funky yet hypnotic piece of dub house, jamaican soundbits and church organs included! 

LeSale takes an unusually sombre and hypnotic route with his contribution "Phantom Vibes". This one is all about the swirling hihats carrying the groove, with wailing strings and a ballsy synth bass setting the tone afterwards.

The norwegian producer and Full Pupp contributor Jarle Bråthen drops an "Italo Mullet", and nomen est omen! Full on 707 drum action meets synthbass, weird leads and angelic strings.

ROTCIV continues to explore an acid tingled house style with "Dream In Silence". Whilst building around the classic main acid ingredients, the track still obtains a great melodic quality and versatility that has become a characteristic of Brazilian producer ROTCIV.

The last new addition to the Luv Shack roster is the Berliner and Renate Schallplatten mastermind Sebastian Voigt. His "Smoke And Mirrors" intertwines industrial harshness with an 8bit synth theme and John Carpenter-esque pad and arpeggio themes. 

The final track sees Jakobin & Domino return to their home stable with a moody stunner of a house track. "Retronome" is a laid back and dreamy ride packed with warm pads, silk y strings and an irresistible vocal theme.

Oma Nata is a mysterious Portuguese kid living in Hamburg. After crossing boundaries in several genres in other musical projects he started Oma Nata to explore a more moody, vibrant and exotic sound. The influences in these three tunes on this EP span from Latin American to West African jazz, blended perfectly with exceptional classic House beat-making, in such way that it doesn't simply come across like patchwork, but a homogenous flow of moody, soulful music. "Baiana" has Cape Verde and Brazil mixed in an unexpected ethereal dance-floor burner that finds its beauty in apparent simplicity. "El Seguidor" is a perfect example of the best way to carefully mix Jazz, South American fusion and House music without sacrificing any of each influence's integrity. We can surely recommend this track even for the stiffest hips. "Sozinho" takes Hamburg to Rio's Carnaval with its irresistible deep Samba influenced beats. Instant summer anywhere!

Moses Boyd - Rye Lane Shuffle (Worldwide Premiere)

New York newcomer @samruffillo has impressed us recently with his jazzy deep house stylings, channeling Theo Parrish and the like in his sumptuous productions (check his IRMA Dancefloor EP for instance). This new remix for @casserecords continues the theme, with sweet synth melodies soaring above the loose groove of synth/boogie funk and chunky low end bump.
