Phonica Premiere: Urulu - The Armadillo [AMADEUS]

Modena

Hatterman returns to Trouble Maker with his second EP, bringing the goodies with two more summer-heaters, guaranteed to cause a stir over the warmer months…

The A side Love Somebody (Everyone) is an instant hands in the air classic, made purely for the dancefloor. Big swirling vocals and funk-led basslines are the order of the day, whilst those swinging percussions keep you shaking into the early hours! 

We thought “You Can Do It” was that good it also deserves a full side at 45rpm! Reminding us of an early Derrick Carter jam, wonky as you like disco/house hybrid at it’s finest- it’s as tough as it is fluffy, that bassline switch-up gets us every time! Festival business at it’s best from Hatterman here… 

Let’s cause some trouble x

Roberto Rodriguez - Mother [Keys Of Life 1999]

Coming fresh off the limited 7” re-release of the unsung 1999 deep garage classic “Tomorrow People” which featured the first official recordings of Grammy nominated vocalist Gregory Porter, Teflon Dons return with the first new EP on their Worldship Music imprint in 18 years. Notably, this is also the first solo-produced release from Aaron Paar under the Teflon Dons guise since the “Planet Eater” EP in 1995. After a variety of reissues on Jay Simon’s Must Have Records and Jeremy Underground’s M.L.I.U., renewed interest in their material led Aaron to put the finishing touches on these SP1200 produced tracks originally written from 1995-1997. With a title inspired by the Burrell Brothers’ legendary NY Housin’ Authority collaboration, each track represents an homage to a housing project in the greater Los Angeles area. As rugged, moody, no-nonsense deep house music from one of the genre’s unsung veterans, the “LA Housin’ Authority” EP is not only the start of a new chapter in the Worldship Music saga, but a fully realized return to form for the inimitable Teflon Dons sound.

The hunger continues…

Exclusive Premiere: LA Housin Authority EP "Imperial Courts(My Heart)"

Blaq Numbers welcomes "Explorer Of The Humankind" back to the stable with his latest work, "Where Did Y’all Go?". The project began following some advice from the label head - “you should try to use your voice more!”. With that in mind, Humankind explored a new set of influences while writing and recording from 2018-2019. The four original compositions now find themselves on a brand new 12” backed by remixes from Larry Houl and Detroit’s Byron The Aquarius. 

"Where Did Y’all Go?" expands on Humankind’s previously established House sound and brings in elements of bedroom pop, with lyrical content exploring the modern conundrum of maintaining relationships in the age of social media. Not much is known about the Lyon native, but his music has built him a keen worldwide following since his debut productions surfaced in 2017.

“How can relationships change when you’re constantly connected with social networks? You're forced to stay in touch with everybody, which can be really painful sometimes or on the contrary very comforting.”
