Behind some of the UKs best underground club nights like Manchester’s stalwart Deep House night Development & the ever so unique I AM parties in Manchester & Liverpool.

A list of DJs that have played with Andy reads like a who’s who of House & Techno, Body & Soul masters Francois K, Danny Krivit and Joe Claussell. US pioneers like MAW’s Kenny Dope Gonzalez, Theo Parrish, DJ Spinna, Ron Trent & Glenn Underground. Techno legends like Deetron, Rolando & Stacey Pullen and right through to German masters like Alexander Barck ( Jazzanova ) , Ame and Dixon.

“Stretford Dogs Club” , a tongue in cheek DJ pseudonym and started to produce online mixes via Soundcloud that quickly took up popularity all around the world, with listeners regularly tuning in from Brazil to Japan.

He started a project to create a 24 hour mix across the year entitled “A Day in a Dogs Life” which gained recognition and his reputation and popularity grew to epic levels.

Playing in places like South Africa and Russia have ensured that the sky is the limit for this dog lover from Manchester.

RABBITHOLE 
THE SUMMER DAYS EP 
LOVE DOSE RECORDS/LDR002

TRACKLISTING 
1: Rabbithole – Summer Days 
2: Rabbithoie – Consume 
3: Rabbithole – Waterside 
4: Rabbithole – Waterside (Seelie Dub)

ARTIST INFORMATION: 
Rabbithole are an anonymous group of singers, writers and producer’s. Connecting dark electronic soundscapes and hooks with melodious, soulful vocal harmonies. Exquisite dance-floor minded production, alt-pop structures and strong vocal harmonies have brought Rabbithole to the attention of many labels. We are over the moon to have them on the Love 
Dose imprint for LDR002 with three immense debut tracks and an assured dub remix.

Heading up the heart side is the reflective track ‘Summer Days’. A beautifully arranged alt-pop structure based around a simple groove and soulful vocal harmonies. Gaining massive support from DJ’s, label’s and artists across the board, this track is a sure fire uplifting body groove cut. 'Consume' is a modern techno track where neat minimal percussion meets the world of classic 80's synthesisers 
and vocal led melodies. Produced with dance-floor sensibilities, underwritten with alt-pop structures.

On the drop side of the vinyl is 'Waterside' & 'Waterside (Seelie's Dub Mix)'. 'Waterside', a groove based deep techno track with a hypnotic bass line. Deep blues vocals and a guitar melody lead the track into darker spaces of harmony. Themes of deep reverence and lyrics alluding to god, psychedelics and nature are sublimely twisted into the songs deep techno underbelly. Waterside (Seelie Dub) is a beautiful take on the original groove. Seelie reconstructs the track, replacing the vocals with subtle orchestrations.

Cellar Door EP

PREMIERE - Kerouac 'Cellar Door' [LOVE DOSE RECORDS]

How Rude

Compulsion

Cellar Door

Kerouac is a young artist with mature tastes. The Cellar Door EP, released on Love Dose Records, is melodic techno that hypnotises and takes you on a journey. Released on 28 November on digital formats, this is the release to get us all through the coldest of winters. 

Daniel Abram from Love Dose Records remarks “Kerouac has quickly become a favourite of the Love Dose team and has started to turn a lot of heads. We are blessed to have the opportunity to release these incredible tracks and help Kerouac develop his career.” 

Podcast 27 features two of the Cellar Door EP tracks as we're taken on a sonic excursion from low slung melancholic deepness through cerebral groovers and jacking rhythms to sweat-dripping-off-the-ceiling weapons of mass dancefloor destruction - you know the ones - before masterfully touching down as we arrive at our destination.

Kerouac digs out some real pealers here.
Close the door, dim the lights, sit back and enjoy.

Love Dose Mix 027: Kerouac

Danny Tenaglia, Jody Wisternoff, Tsepo (Trouw), DJ Sossa, Frank Roger, Jon Dasilva, m50, Alkalino, KE, Posthuman (I Love Acid), Iron Curtis and Chris Fortier on support so far.

"An industrial adventure back to the 1980s. Primal kick drums and nostalgic arpeggiators form the base of all tracks on the EP. Intricate, often distorted percussion is offset by ethereal pads and chords to make the Bail sound; spacial, heart pounding and dark but with glimpses of delicate beauty.

‘Luvliner’ starts with a heavenly, off kilter riff and blunt kick drum that quickly finds a sharp groove with the introduction of a relentless, robotic bass arp. The track is punctuated with a blown out, distorted snare that remains a constant through sections of raw 80s arptopia, delicate chords, and disorienting spoken word.

‘Astro Torres’ is an alternate, star-gazing interpretation of this 80s indebted sound. With the tempo turned all the way up, Linn kicks, reverse-reverbed snares and distorted hihats drive the track through overt angelic synth washes and chewed up vocal samples, while a restless Italo bassline underpins the wide-eyed, hyperactive and strangely romantic events above it.

The final track ‘Plume’ turns down the heat somewhat with focus shifting towards mood and percussion, with smoky, hissing synths drifting in and out of focus, disembodied voices and widescreen chords shining shards of light on a visceral low end. The EP is a perfect example of Bail’s skewed interpretation of beautiful, destructive techno - we can’t wait to hear more from this talented up and coming artist."

Bail - Luvliner EP Sampler

Next up is Simba! For those of you who know, you'll know the future is bright for this artist and for those don't - keep your eyes and ears peeled. Already repping for Intimate Friends, Shadeleaf Music and Home Taping there are big things ahead.

Love Dose Mix 028: Simba

House of Lucid Dreams brings two hallucinogenic house cuts in his Love Dose debut. ‘Under Your Groove’ is a spell binding progressive, tribal, jazz track. Strings and a sax wash over a tight groove built around an 80’s electro bass line.

'MMA TG3’ is a left field house track with a guitar riff. Based around the groove of a tight analogue bass the track takes in jazz chords, haunting bells and acid arps on it’s progressive journey to nowhere.
