Sir Alex b2b Alex Cicada - WARMUP for Mahony at Iasi, Romania

Jack's House Recordings favourite (Alex Arnout), is back with another 4 track solid EP. This is the 3rd EP with Alex signed to the label. Alex was the first artist to release on the imprint back in 2016 with sell out Confirmation Bias ep followed by the Sync Jam release and further productions on some of the Jacks Tracks VA series. This latest offering with the new Burn EP does not disappoint 
 
This limited vinyl press offers 4 distinctive tracks showcasing Alex's ability and talent to seamlessly blend influences from different genres making his production unique creating his staple sound. 
 
First up is Burn  which kicks of with tough tech beats quickly followed by some punchy chords before it develops into a beautiful fusion of an energetic original tech house sound merged with what can only be described as a pure soulful touch with the vocal snippet which occasionally and simply sings the the title track lyric (Burn). You could describe it as Tech soul if that were a thing. Punchy, warm and energising with a touch of a romantic notion in there while maintaining the techy roots, you will have this on repeat.
 
2nd up is Tribespeople, which takes you into Alex's tougher side. Leading with a full on kick and rounded sound, it  is perfectly suited for true underground dance floors at the height of their energy, or to wake it up, this track is made for the committed clubber that really likes to go for it ! The track is laced with subtle fills that will jog your memory and take you back to the original days of rave. This is pure underground bliss.
 
On the flip side, is the popular Punkadelic. This was originally released back in 2022 on Jacks Tracks VA Vol 5 alongside tracks from Terry Francis, Lex & Legit Trip. It was always intended to be a vinyl release, so by popular demand, it is finally going onto wax, where it deserves to be. Punkadelic is dark with a real techno vibe, but even in here, if you have a good ear, you can hear subtle touches of Jazz in the percussion, which yet again showcases Alex Arnout's unique talent to fuse elements of different genres in an especially classy way.
 
Last but by no means least, is a slightly different flavour with the track Recall. This is a slightly more laid back number, but still punchy with a good chug to it, and keeping within the sounds of the underground. Vocal snippets are spoken and broken throughout the track laced over some ghostly chords accompanied by swinging hats, claps and a fierce bassline.

exclusive | Lauren Flax - Jack The Haus | Chiwax

Detroit-born artist Lauren Flax gracefully aligns with the esteemed Chiwax label, heralding her inaugural offering steeped in homage to her native city, resonating profoundly with its essence. This momentous occasion marks yet another pinnacle in Flax's illustrious career, punctuated by an impressive discography showcased across revered imprints like Balkan Vinyl, Dance Trax, The Bunker New York, and Super Rhythm Trax, among others. Enhanced by a masterful remix courtesy of the adept Lis Sarocca, this release epitomizes unparalleled excellence.

The EP is launched with “Jack The Haus“ which, as the title leaves you in no doubt, is a late 80s referencing jack track. Utilising a similar repetitive “House" vocal refrain to Housemasterboyz “House Nation", this rattles along on a percussive bed, clicking rimshots and off-beat claps giving the drums that authentic old vibe, squelchy bass adding to the retro flavour and top notes of bleepy riffs and seering pads finalising the raw feeling. No messing about here, just aimed straight at your hips, which will start to move, as they are defenceless!

Second on the list is “The Cheeky Whistle Song“, which notches the BPM up a touch and again takes its cue from the sounds of the late 80s/early 90s house vibes. As with the opening track, the bassline is rough and ready, bouncing up next to the punchy drums, these are accompanied by some ravey bleeps and pianos as the track bumps along. Flowing through the track is a freaky whistle sound which comes in and out of the groove, adding a slightly off-kilter feeling which works really nicely. 

The title track, “D-Troit“ is next up, with modulated riffs working alongside neat acid lines, these give way to some stripped-back stabs and synth hits, all very tidy indeed. A mid-track square bassline adds to the flow, giving the track an alternate feel from its start, which is a very cool touch and allows the original sounds to then return later. This is, as with the previous tracks, unadulterated and raw club material for the floors, no doubt about that!

Lastly, Barcelona-based Lis Sarocca, no stranger to the Chiwax imprint, adds a warmer hazy flow on her remix of “D-Troit“, adding to the original's vibe with some very tasty breaks and lush filtered synths. These sit just right with the hints of acid and clipped vox from the original, retaining the overall feeling from Lauren's version but adding her own definite touches, and wrapping up this EP in fine style. Anybody wanting new vibes but with a definite nod to the late 80s and early 90s House sound, you'll not go wrong here.
