With release nr. 11, Luv Shack Records are once again eager to exalt the diversity of their releases, while keeping up the quality.

LUV011 is the split EP of the two up and coming electronic music duos "Manhooker" and "Space Echo". Whilst both projects are still relatively new to the scene, they have equally made a stir with their first releases.

Manhooker consists of the two Berliners by choice Tomasz “Guiddo” Switala and Sebastian “Mavin” Magassouba. Their first release appeared on Ostgut Ton´s sublabel 'Unterton' and their second EP was recently released on german heavy hitters 'Sonar Kollektiv' - a collab with ex New Yorker Snax, featuring a remix by Justus Köhncke.

With 'Pushin & Shovin', Manhooker are once again evoking the spirit of classic soulful house hymns. It's an uplifting mix of 90s organs, filtered arpeggios and thick drums all held together by an acid bassline and Mavin´s shimmering vocals. And not to forget the trumpet solo!

The remix of 'Pushin & Shovin' comes from Brazilian wunderkind ROTCIV (who has already remixed Manhooker on their Unterton release). He strips off the smoothness of the original in favor of a more raw and analogue vibe. Its groove seems like a merger of modern electro and classic house, and although ROTCIV´s trademark stabs and pads are used quite ecstatically on this remix, the song structure remains just as strong as in the original.

On The flipside we have Space Echo, the duo of Viennese producer caTekk and (Luv Shack`s very own) Lee Stevens. Their first ever production as a duo was a remix for none other than Austra on Domino Records.

They're offering two equally powerful cuts on the B-side; 'Soul Power' is nothing short of a club burner. A mighty and continuously building ride of funk organs and disco drums, all with a delightfully modern touch. When the vocal kicks in for the first time, ringing in the break, the audience will surely fall into a frenzy when exposed to it! The disco guitars are just the icing on the cake.

'Soul People' takes a slightly more sensual path. Expect dreamy rhodes, dubbed out percussive organs, an almost reggae worthy bassline, a painfully sweet vocal hook and a sharp rhythm that make this track a perfect choice for every warmup, after-hours and daytime set!

With all its ingredients, LUV011 will provide something for everyone who loves electronic music with soul!

Future Classic have gone back to their deep house roots with 'Changed' by Mario & Vidis. They've also invited their friends Andre Lodemann, John Talabot, Soul Clap, jozif and Softwar to grab their pianos, drum machines and string ensembles for remixes.

Mario and Vidis are two gentlemen from Lithuania. Mario and Vidis' first tune was a remix for Atjazz and Robert Owens that was played and loved by Gilles Peterson, Pete Tong and Laurent Garnier, their first track with vocals “I'll Be Gone” didn't leave the MTV Baltic Top 20 for half a year! Since then they've worked with Jazzu, Kathy Diamond and released their debut album on their own label Silence Music. (Lithuania geographically parties next to Latvia, Belarus, Poland and the Baltic Sea.)

'Changed' is etherial – the whispy voice of Ernesto and cute skipping drums just make us happy. The video clip kind of wigs us out a little bit too (double meaning).

First remixer up is German producer Andre Lodemann, not many house producers would admit they came from trance and we're surprised we're even telling you. Lodemann's mix is a weapon, if you're listening to a little sample clip on the net you're not doing it justice, listen to the first 4:30! Phoar.

Permanent Vacation regular John Talabot pitch shifts the vocals and blisses everything out with celestial strings and ecstasy whilst burning hot producer and DJ team Soul Clap throw down a tough drum mix for the floor. Sydney lads and new Future Classic signee's Softwar work out a classic house jam and rounding out the package jozif of Wolf + Lamb fame gives a more live feel to the original.

Mario & Vidis feat. Ernesto - Changed (Radio Edit)

Leeds-based house duo Bonar Bradberry and Tom Thorpe have been working together as PBR Streetgang for coming up to a decade now, cutting their musical teeth on their home city’s infamous nightlife, and developing into an act that’s equally known for their quality studio output on labels like 20:20 Vision and Futureboogie, as well as their reputation for using the back-to-back setup to maximum dynamic effect in their DJ performances.

Thus as fans of PBR, when the boys take an interest in the development of an up and coming artist it piques our curiosity into seeing what said artist has to offer. After one listen to their remix of emerging singer/songwriter Charlotte OC’s ‘Colour My Heart’ she had not only our curiosity but our full attention as we set about securing the track for exclusive premiere here on Data Transmission.

With her debut Colour My Heart EP still making waves from last year as the Blackburn born Charlotte’s ode to a special night in Berlin’s Berghain and a full remix EP to follow soon get a taste of things to come on the upcoming release with this ace rework by PBR Streetgang!

The Cologne-based label founded by Dirk Hermann and Andreas Mueller drops its sixth release this July. Jay West & Manuel Sahagun reunite for their third release following ‘Fool Me’ on Off Recordings and ‘Got Me’ on Electronique Digital back in 2013.
Between them West & Sahagun have stacked up an impressive back-catalogue of work on labels including Neurotraxx, Drop Music, Moodmusic and Salted Music. ‘Sense Of You’ is a smooth and melodic affair, lined with silky pads, soft strings, shuffling percussion and an ethereal vox from Cody ChesnuTT.
With 15 years in the game and releases on Amam, Tsuba, VIVa Music and BPitch Control, French native Okain delivers a punchy re-imagining. It’s an eccentric house cut built around stripped back rhythms, rolling bass lines and an elemental vocal.
Schallplatten head honchos Dirk and Andreas step up next for remix duty and cut things back, introducing a fresh piano arrangement alongside emphasised strings the duo draw out those understated crowning moments to deliver a smooth slow-lung jam.
‘The Right Thing To Do’ is the final offering on the EP and certainly doesn’t disappoint with a meaty groove mapped over kinetic drum patterns, dancing bass and an airy spoken word vocal.

Laurent Garnier, DJ Sneak, Stacey Pullen, Dubfire, DJ T., Danny Tenaglia, Art Department, Steve Lawler, Butch, Carlo Lio, Walker & Royce, Ray Okpara, Blond:ish, Mihai Popoviciu, Jamie Zabiela, Vanilla Ace, Miguel Lobo, Nhan Solo, Nolan, Nicolas Masseyeff, Jorge Savoretti, X-Press 2, Mark Jenkyns, Sishi Rösch, Moodymanc, La Fleur...



Sense of You

KKS 006 ||| Jay West & Manuel Sahagun Feat. Cody ChestnuTT - Sense Of You (Original Mix)

We had the honour to have one of our favourite acts remixed by Exploited mainstay Claptone. The Original Version of 'I'm Aquarius' can be found on Metronomy's recent album 'Love Letters' and is a cocktail of lo-fi synths and clipped, nocturnal rhythms. Now Claptone added some of his magic which brought us to this catchy result made to be played out in the clubs. With friendly permission from Because Music.

Label: Exploited

Vocally driven, with a little nibble of the guitars and a lonely trumpet somewhere in the distance, David Marston & Dan Izco remix of Fork In the Path by Life on Planets is a beautiful tune. Taking you from everyday life into somewhere else. Finally driving the thing home with a apex of drums, piano and some pads, this song is quite something.
