effgee releases the third EP on his imprint fellice – Deep House meets Jazz with a warm, analogue touch. The three tracks featured include various production approaches: “New Disco Groove” evolved over time from a more Disco sounding track into a groovy and dreamy Deep House trip, whereas “Pain & Wine” and “Lying to yourself” take things in a slightly more Jazzy direction. “Lying to yourself” also contains recordings from effgee’s live drumming, with an emotive, Jazz influenced break beat groove.

‘Fantasy' is the second track off Retrofract's upcoming valentine's day release 'Lovers / Fantasy'. Featuring the formally trained jazz musician Mikka Bouzu, the blend of Retrofract's house and Bouzu's jazz-funk leaves the arrangement reminiscent of the works of Japanese nineties house pioneers Soichi Terada and Shinichiro Yokota.

PREMIERE : Retrofract - Fantasy (feat. Mikka Bouzu)

Detroit is a city that has given birth to some of the most important musical movements and artists of the last century. It’s a city of infinite inspiration for the world, a city that throughout all obstacles, has managed to breed a musical vanguard that we are all paying attention and looking up to, not to mention the biting, taking, and straight up jacking of this culture. There is a feeling, even an expectation, which comes with the music from the Motor City. Producer Kevin Reynolds is a true native son of Detroit.

With the release of single ‘Fembehyahget’ in 2016, the seeds were planted for Yoruba to release his official debut album. But Kevin Reynolds likes to take things slow! The second single from the collection came a lot later- ‘Come on Then’ in 2021, followed by ‘Riverfront’ in October 2022. Now Yoruba Records is finally proud to announce, ‘A Certain Circumstance’, by former Transmat Records key player, Kevin Reynolds. Anyone with a close connection to the electronic underground in Detroit can attest that Reynolds is one of the city’s most key artists, one of the true unsung heroes of the scene. Considering the sheer amount of talent within the Motor city, that goes way beyond a simple compliment.

Opener ‘Abandoned Car Seat’ serves as a great introduction to Reynolds range as a producer, a master class in tech-tinged deep house. Bathed in a warm moody chord progression, accompanied by a cold synth line that’s layered with equal opposite Rhodes melodic line. The blissed-out energy of ‘Fembehyahget’, is followed by the deep tech bounce of ‘Come On Then (Rerub’) and the sun-kissed frost of ‘Riverfront’, all making a necessary re-appearance. ‘Completed Stance’ is the type of composition that finds a true home at Yoruba Records. A looped guitar starts the journey, bringing in piano, then dropping an ancestral stomp on the beat. This has all the ingredients of one of those late-night Yoruba dance floor scorchers.

Reynolds strips things down on ‘Family Tree’, showing some bare bones funk, and dropping a vocal sample from someone you may or may not know who is deeply connected to that Detroit legacy stuff we’ve been talking about. ‘Inward Breath’ and ‘Seeking Peace’ bring some of the most transcendental moments of the album. Reminding us of the spacious and supernatural feelings of Hiroshi Watanabe’s 32 Project - music to truly lose yourself to the divine. Closing the proceedings is the broken beat electronic jazz of ‘Soil Before the Rain’.

Kevin Reynolds brings a relaxed, but intense focus to this album. Nothing feels forced! There has always been a linear narrative regarding Reynolds as Detroit’s best-kept secret. With ‘A Certain Circumstance’ that secret is finally out.

Dial 303! The new and hopefully also durable sampler series on Running Back is here.

Dedicated to the twang of Roland’s silver baseline box with a varied string of artists: DVS1, Marko East & Jordi Chu (whose collaboration sparked the idea of a whole series), Like A Tim via Prins Thomas, Katerina and I:Cube.

The Parisian put it in a nutshell, too: „Although rinsed to death to the point of becoming a parody of itself, acid will last forever.“ Therefore, his Folie Noire is combining the original recipes with hypnotic European influences, while Marko and Jordi present a rough and direct 303-909 live jam, Prins Thomas puts his wickedest smile on Like A Tim’s Wonderline from 2005 and Katerina sets a lucid dream to sanguine music.

Finally, there is a rare and much desired musical outing by the unique DVS1. A direct ode to Chicago’s acid and beatdown styles and its Midwest companions, it is a heads-down-lights-down late night track made for driving up and down Lower Wacker Drive. Trippy trip artwork by the inimitable Gasius.

Trivia: If the piano is the bread of house music, the acid line is its butter!

SNF073 // Lis Sarroca - Our Times EP

He recalled the night before, remembered the smoke which filled the room as the music began to play loudly, her smile was radiant in the darkened haze.

The next few hours had been. a blur as he lost himself in the rhythm of the music which bounced and blundered between the walls of the small club. This was a magical place, a party like no other.

Sure enough, as he’d hoped he’d saw her later, she’d followed him home in the glow of the morning sun after the night before. Or perhaps that was just a memory of what had been before…

Awanto 3 is set to release a new EP on Rush Hour, a fun affair built up of moody textures and broken beats which really goes hard and comes with an interesting back story to boot…

“Party was born in a small village located in Wallonia during a period of house-sitting for a family on holiday. Initially my mother was asked to take care of the chickens, goat, dog and donkey but eventually I decided to take care of them to relieve my mother. This week turned out to be a small nightmare, because I think the house was being possessed by a spirit that I had to deal with night and day. The vibe of the house was so grimy, due to the fact that there were calendars with all kinds of weapons and dark oak furniture, interspersed with a huge flatscreen and blinds at the ready to be rolled out when the sun started to go down (by request of the paranoid owner). This setting affected my sketches; a dark side that was looking for contra light weight. After I took care of the animals, I had an energy to escape to my MPC to make the basis for a possible new album. When I got back in Amsterdam, I started to work out some of the sketches I’ve made in the ghost house together with Stefan and Jos in Studio K at Sloterdijk.”

As we bid farewell to the final days of summer, we're thrilled to present Joe Morris's "Solar Fantasy EP." Written during the darkest days of the Covid-19 Pandemic the tracks are deliberately imbued with a warmth and light. Richly textured melodies and a vibrant sonic palette that dance around each other to create an immersive dance floor experience full of freedom and emotion.

Teen Daze flips the energy of the original to a languid pace for a more poolside atmosphere. Cool electric keys and sparkling chords add a dreamy, hazy quality to the music.  Embracing the dream house aesthetic of the original, the Desert Island Disco version offers up a breezy house vibe that moves with an energetic pace, introducing cool piano hooks and breathy vocals.   Pleasure Voyage take a nostalgic turn, transporting us back to the heady days of Rimini with a fun italo-house rework packed with irresistible grooves.

The Solar Fantasy EP is a carefully crafted collection of tracks that aim to evoke feelings of warmth, freedom, and positivity, making it a fitting soundtrack for the end of summer.
