We welcome back acclaimed artist Makito for his 3rd release on Large Music. Deep, gritty analog grooves is the game on this EP and we absolutely love both tracks. Track one entitled Check This has a perfect piano hook that is instantly infectious. The final track throws a nod back to that classic mid-90s NYC vibe that is the bedrock for modern Deep House. Essential listening!

James Benedict returns to Large Music for his 3rd release with the Like 94 EP. James has always proclaimed his love and allegiance to vintage house grooves proudly, and on this outing he is simply unleashed. The title track clocks in at 123 bpm with a dynamic serving of analog House energy. That's When treads much deeper, presenting a sleek nu-disco hybrid groove. The final track is trademark Benedict – a big and bold floor-filler monster. Just great music!

As a label that is always dedicated to exposing new talent in our scene, we have found someone very special in Never Dull. Born and raised in southern California and now residing in Mexico, this uniquely talented artist seems to possess a special ear for dusty, classic grooves that were created by Large Music artists of the past. There is still, however, a contemporary sensibility to his work and that makes for a thrilling combination. All three tracks are special in this fitting debut for Never Dull – we can't wait to watch him rise!

Crackazat has been one of my favorite producers for awhile now, so I thought he would be a perfect fit to remix one of the top release from us in 2019 – Night And Day. Honestly, the remix has exceeded all expectations. Crackazat takes this already powerful, positive tune to new heights with his frenetic piano workout and classic pads and percussion. This is a tremendous way to start 2020, our 27th year. Play it Loud!

I have known and admired Demarkus Lewis for years. He was one of the original artists on our sub-label Vista Recordings back in the early 2000's yet has never had an official release on Large Music.

I always get an adrenaline rush when I see a demo from one of my favorites, Roland Nights. When I heard this new collaboration with Dubai artist Man Go Funk I knew it was going straight onto Large. The trumpet runs on both mixes? Those aren't samples but actual live riffs from Man Go Funk himself. Two mixes to choose from here: Roland's club friendly Main Mix and the Jazz Mix for a full brass workout. Hard to pick a favorite!

For those in the know, Lars Vegas is the alias for Lars Dales who has cemented a massive reputation for quality House grooves as one half of the dynamic duo Detroit Swindle. Stepping out on his own for his debut Large Music release, Lars proves that he indeed has a flair for the dramatic with two stellar tracks that push the movement forward while paying tribute to where it all began. This is top shelf Deep House for those who love it and for those who will love it soon enough.

As if this package wasn’t strong enough already based on the two defining tracks, Large Music and Lars have enlisted the fine talents of underground heroes Homework to join in with a stomper of a remix for ‘Break Me Down’. Homework are widely praised for their original releases on labels such as Berlin-based Exploited, 2020 Vision, Jesse Rose’s Made To Play, and Riva Starr’s Snatch! as well as strains of remixes erupting from their Amsterdam studio. These two gentlemen have garnered a continuing sense of awe from both the famous and not yet famous DJs across the globe for their uncompromising approach to making proper underground music. On this particular remix outing, Homework give a firm nod to the rich Deep House history of Large Music yet still manage to keep the vibe fresh and alive.

With ‘The Game EP’ Lars Vegas and Large Music have delivered a timeless record that draws on the past whilst capturing the sound and feel of 2013, enjoy!

I have been following Makito for awhile and asked him in the winter of 2019 to send a demo to Large. A few months later I was thrilled to get these tracks which have been carefully crafted with our label in mind. The title track is the business: I love the hook, the groove and the piano riffs. This is a terrific label debut from a very talented artist who is going to do big things over the next few years. We are thrilled to have him on board.

Protect Your Mind

Feint Young Son & Roland Clark | Protect Your Mind

Deep House was born here.
Deep House lives here.
3 decades of House Music history...and counting.
Full Bio:

Cast your mind back to 1992. The world wide web had only just been invented, and mobile phones were for yuppies and drug dealers. The world we know today was just being born – and being born right at the same time, over in Chicago, was a little label called Large.

Large Music was the brainchild of Windy City resident Jeff Craven, who was worried that house music was in danger of being sidelined in its own birthplace, the international spotlight that had once shone on the pioneering Trax and DJ International imprints having moved on to New York labels such as Strictly Rhythm, Nervous and 8-Ball. “I thought a label with that kind of energy and underground profile could work in Chicago,” says Jeff.  So, pooling funds with a friend, he began finding talent and pressing records. Kerri Chandler's 'Raw Grooves EP' became the label's breakout release, and Large Music hasn't looked back since.

In fact, far from looking back, Large is a record label that's always been about looking forward. In the 90s, their catalogue featured the likes of DJ Sneak, Mateo & Matos and Dennis Ferrer when they were right at the start of their careers, not to mention providing a then-nascent UK garage scene with one of its most enduring anthems in the form of Roy Davis Jr's 'Gabriel'. In the 2000s, the Chicago-based label was quick to pick up on the deep and soulful house coming from the West Coast, releasing material from the likes of Halo, Jay-J, Rasoul, Miguel Migs and Julius Papp. And now as a new decade takes shape, we see Jeff embracing the techier deep house sound that's emerged out of Europe, with recent releases from the likes of Roland Nights, Evan Iff, James Dexter and Matthias Vogt.

Yet while fashions fluctuate and music mutates, one thing that hasn't changed is the Large A&R policy. It's simple: “My formula has always been to release music that I was really into and what I would play as a DJ,” says Jeff. “I'm still just as excited about house music as I was in 1992.” Which probably explains how Large has been able to stay relevant all these years – this is one veteran label that isn't content to endlessly rehash former glories, but who instead keep searching out new underground talent.

At the time of writing this, Large Music is 20 years old, with some 200 singles and 50 albums under their belt, and tracks licensed to over 400 compilations. Which means they've been putting out upfront house music on a weekly basis since before many of the people dancing to it in clubs this weekend were even born. They set out to ensure that house music didn't get sidelined in Chicago in the 90s. What they've actually achieved is to push house forward all over the world for two decades – and counting…
