"One good thing about house music, when it hits you, you feel no pain" Hardrock Striker

Emotion II Emotion "EllE I", Wax Classic 6 (Skylax records) coming straight from the Miracles Club, EIIE is Portland duo that blend Garage & Deep House live with gritty samples, FM synthesis, analog hardware, swing and passion. Looking back to the golden age of House Music and pushing it forward as a live art form. Inspired by the best of the 90's club sounds, they deliver here their first EP full of DEEP HOUSE KILLERS. Entitled "EIIE I", it kicks off with the intense "Feels good" taking things into classic mid 90's new york territory, straight into a garage sounding bassline, looped vocal intro. We can clearly hear the sound of the E-mu Sp1200 & mpc 60 !Swinging beats, a sax & a disco bass : Come on & dance ! It's clearly some feel good house music with gritty samples, FM synthesis, analog hardware, swing and passion we used to hear in the early 90’s courtesy of Mr Kerri Chandler, Mood II Swing, Marc Kinchen & M.A.W. Big tip!

Fire up the Ford Escort, check the AtoZ road map and make sure there's a full tub of Vicks Vapour Rub in the glove box! That's the order of the day with this amazing 3 track of warehouse rave tackle from the studio of Acolyte, a new collaboration project by Joe Morris & Tom Gray that is a full-on force of bass bin rattling action.

Title track Helter Skelter is ruff, raw & ready right from the offshoot and absolutely reeks of sweat drenched walls from a Blackburn abandoned mill building circa 1989. Plenty of familiar vibes packed in here though this is no nostalgia trip as it wraps around & whacks you over the head with the rave stick. One for all the Optimo style fans. BIG!

Kill The Bill continues its hat tipping to the smiley face folk with scattered & hooky vocals tripping over 'that' familiar style bass sound that instantly makes you hold your hands up & declare you're having the best night of your life. Snappy keys & stabs finish off the party on this groovy number.

Sirens is a slower, chuggy entry though no less acid house than its predecessors. Plenty of squelches, 303 action & hazy tripped out synths make this sound like a long-lost track from one of The Orb's studio sessions but will now find its way firmly into those warmup/transferring to mid-session kind of sets. Lovely scene setter!

Luise is a DJ producer from Hannover, resident at weltspiele.club. She is greatly inspired by the most emblematic movements of house music, we received her demos and we signed her right away because her music sounds like what house or deep should be (and we're not that much surprised since she plays vinyl only and in this case she necessarily knows the dancers' psychology perfectly), waiting, immersive, elegant. This 12 inch will delight fans of zip and consorts. It is a wonder.

"Hardrock Striker's Stay Underground, It Pays label may be more intermittent these days, but when they drop a record it really counts for something. This latest drop comes from Luise, a resident DJ at Hannover club Weltspiele, who knows a thing or two about legit deep house for the heads. Her tracks have a timeless quality which shows she's schooled in the trade, knowing exactly the kind of understated flair to make a dancefloor track truly pop. 'Luise Zen' is an especially ear-snagging, swung tune with a low-key hook which will get trainspotters racking their brains trying to place the source." Juno Records

Keep Tempo is a mysterious band with a love for 80s electronics and new wave. They float between gummy bass and analogue synths and hark back to a time when there was more artistry and musicality in the electronic scene. The lyrics bring another dreamy aspect full of hope and represent a freedom of expression that is all too rare while celebrating everyone for whoever they want to be.

PREMIERE: Theo Poles - Arcipelago [Toasty Beats]

Introducing Small Great Beats, an exclusive series following the principal release series, Small Great Things. This limited edition collection will showcase 1 or 2 releases annually, featuring a blend of anthems, melodic tracks, and dance floor-oriented tunes.

Limited to just 200 copies per release, Small Great Beats offers collectors a rare opportunity to own something truly exceptional. Additionally, the series will be digitally available on all major platforms and Bandcamp.

Kicking off the series is Luca Olivotto's mesmerizing 5-track EP, "Kind Of Lovin´", pressed on captivating light blue vinyl. 
Opening the release is title-cut ‘Kind Of Lovin’’, an anthemic slice of classic house fuelled by a swinging 909 drums groove and bouncy bass line in combination with intertwined piano keys, strings and vocal hooks before ‘Blue’ follows and lays down a 90’s rave-tinged piano melody, cinematic string flutters and crisp saturated drums across five minutes. ‘Hear My Call’ comes next and infused a more funk leaning aesthetic with organic percussion, jazzy keys and a walking bass line, intertwined with wandering strings and choppy vocal chants.
Opening the B-side is ‘Sun After Dark’, as the name would suggest a more peak time groove with glimpses of brightness via a circling bass line, raw, heavily shuffled drums and gritty stab sequences. ‘My Soul’ then rounds out the EP, again aptly titled as the composition fuses soulful cinematic strings, bright keys and an amalgamation of soulful vocal stylings all dynamically evolving and unfolding throughout.
