Wonder Stories leads us into the summer heat with the irresistible new Cloud Nine EP from Joe Morris. The house veteran from Leeds delivers a dreamy downtempo gem in “Cloud Nine” with Balearic House titans Max Essa and Coyote adding stunning remixes before Wonder Stories boss Aimes rounds it out on the B2. Prime for any set from sunset to sunrise, “Cloud Nine” floats along with dripping chords surrounded by buzzing arpeggios and melodic pads. The 303 bassline trots along, extending itself in all the right places as the space grows and grows around it. African percussion slides in as the beat drives forward with additional drum elements added throughout. As it breaks down the track finds itself somewhat in between Todd Terje and Mood II Swing while occupying its own realm in space with the soaring synth lines and thick reverb.

Wonder Stories boss Aimes reworks “Cloud Nine” with a remix that sits well in line with the sound the Brooklyn label has built through over 25 releases since 2011. While “Cloud Nine” finds itself within the bounds of the left-field house, disco and techno prevalent on Wonder Stories so far, Aimes’ remix finds itself exploring new territory in the summertime sunshine. Maintaining the same ethereal textures of the original, Aimes instead chooses to thrust the bassline ahead, introducing chords later as the 303 does the floating instead. The percussion elements find themselves cloaked in a dreamy reverb, while extended synth lines produce an uplifting atmosphere from some unknown future city. While there is still a sense of fogginess, the melodies and chords wrap the listener in a poolside summer warmth. You can already pre-order your copy, out on june, 25th.

While we’re less sure about who/what Momios is and why they/it should be fought, the acid and jazz parts of our premiere are self-evident. Fighting Momios With Acid And Jazz is the B1 cut from the upcoming second release of Leicester label, Flat White. Bogota’s Felipe Gordon is the artist behind the record that encompasses a lot of what we like at Bolting Bits: flavours of house, disco, techno and interesting blends of samples and original instrumentation.

The "Deep Fried Banana" EP is a five-tracker featuring a remix from The Last Trip To Gandahar, whose work we’ve premiered before. There isn’t a track we wouldn’t buy on this record, but our premiere is the stand out for us. While the percussive elements cut in and out, dusty-sounding jazz piano samples and a looped acid synth-line staple this track almost all the way through. It’s one of those pieces of music that feel like every part is completely intentional – even the rough bits are supposed to be rough. Felipe Gordon has built an impressive resume for himself recently, with releases on London’s Quintessentials and Berlin’s Toy Tonics, and we’re happy we can play a part in getting the word out on this guy, because his future looks bright. Also on the record, check out: Groove 37 (if funky basslines and dissonant keys are your thing) and The Last Trip To Gandahar’s driving, dance-focused remix of the EP’s title track, Deep Fried Banana.

Clinical. A word best used to describe the latest 'Shapes & Spaces' EP from Tommy Tickle AKA Meles Meles. Separating his time between both London & Manchester, the young man's been on a writing roll of late, churning out some svelte recordings. When asked about this next slice, Tommy is quick to tell us the release encapsulates feelings of healing, catharsis and escapism. This one's a strange beast with a ream of flavours. You can hear nods to the likes of St Germain, UKG and early Leon Vynehall. 

As one quarter of jazz troupe A Broken Camarilla, Tommy uses his side project to explore his love of all things house, disco, garage and funk. And boy are we happy he does so! It is with great pleasure that we premiere 'Gold Rush', the third track off his latest escapade thanks to Ad Hoc Records.

'Gold Rush' screams carnival, streamers and colour. Imagine being a part of a dancing street procession with this blaring from the speakers. Elated horns and one very neat kick are the spectacle here. Throw in some jubilant vocal cries and it really does start to feel like we've legitimately struck Gold! 

'Shapes & Spaces' is Tommy's debut release via Ad Hoc, a label who push any Manchester sounds they vibe. A quote unquote "post anything mentality". Ad Hoc spread their arms far and wide in search of tunes that carry their imprint. No prejudices on language, ethnicity or socio-economic background. What an amazing ethos it is! There's enough division in our world as it stands, let dance bring us all closer together.

As you might know, Heist Recordings was created by the lads of Detroit Swindle as a means to take control of their own releases. However, in the 5 years that they have been in existence, Heist has also become a launching pad for many producers from their homeland the Netherlands. Artists like Nachtbraker to Frist Wentik and Fouk, all have featured their music on the label and have helped Heist become the Dutch, funk powerhouse that it is today. In keeping up with the tradition of showcasing the best deep house and disco the Dutch have to offer, Heist has decided to add another friend into the mix - the exquisite producer Pitto!

Set to come out tomorrow, Pitto's debut EP on the label Late Night Studio Moves will feature 3 new original tracks from him along with a delightful remix from Colin de la Plante, better known as the Mole. As you can hear in the lead track, Pitto's inspiration for the record seems to be heavily influenced by African melodies. Throughout the song's epic 9:26 entirety, one can hear playful vocals and percussion from the continent accompanied by a soulful array of piano keys and titillating synths. Each of these electronic and live elements are then tastefully brought in and out as the track takes the listener on a journey that will leave them in a state of dancefloor euphoria. We're sure that Late Night Studio Moves will be a crowd favorite wherever it is played this summer!

Our premiere from The Last Trip To Gandahar's latest effort on City Fly comes courtesy of the A2, Escape Through Time. 

A percussive and chant-laden intro build into the song, as a jazzy chords and strings slowly simmer into play. It's a chilled affair through and through, employing the jazz-funk aesthetics that were just alluded to. The whole thing sits nicely into the vibe the producer has cultivated for himself -- laidback and loose feeling disco endeavors that nod to the effortless cool of paradisaical 70's influences from across the globe.

Superbreak's European Adventure 2018

As one of the longest standing independent record labels in the US, Nervous Records has built its reputation through a willingness to take chances on new sounds and new producers. Nervous was the first American label to sign and release tracks from such dance industry luminaries as Armand Van Helden, Paul Van Dyk and Nuyorican Soul. This spirit has enabled Nervous to build a catalogue of hits that spans the complete range of underground dance and hip hop genres.

The label was famous almost immediately when it started back in 1991 because of its eye-catching, very distinctive cartoon character logo. In addition the first three releases were produced by Roger S., Kenny Dope, and Todd Terry respectively, representing the three best house producers of that time. By 1992 Nervous was featured in magazines like Billboard, DJ Magazine (cover story), Mixmag, and ID, hailed by all as the “Sound of New York nitelife.”

Nervous’ first major dance release came in 1992, with “Feel Like Singing” by Sandy B. Nervous decided at that point to focus its energy on expanding the label’s musical field. The label’s first step outside the house music arena was with the Brooklyn, NY-based rap group, Black Moon, whose single “Who Got The Props” virtually put Brooklyn back on the map as a center of hip hop. At the same time, the label decided to alter the Nervous character for this release, giving it specific hip hop characteristics, and calling the hip hop label Wreck Records. Massive success followed with the Wreck imprint, as hits soon followed by Smif-N-Wessun, and Funkmaster Flex.

Nervous decided to continue to expand its musical boundries in 1993 by signing Mad Lion, which would be the first reggae artist on the Weeded imprint. Once again, there was huge success as Mad Lion’s single “Take It Easy” sold over 250,000 units.

Meanwhile, the Nervous merchandise continued to produce massive sales numbers as it established itself as one of the most favored t-shirts for the youth cultures of America, Japan, and many European countries.

In 1994, the label decided it was time to move into the electronic genre, and started an imprint called Sorted. The first artist on that label was Josh Wink, who went by the artist name Winx. While Winx’s debut release was a critical success although not a major seller, Winx’s follow-up release “Don’t Laugh” became the American dance community’s most talked about single, and ended up selling several hundred thousand units worlwide. Subsequently Nervous released Winx’s debut album, “Left Above The Clouds.” This album was one of the first “electronica” albums to be released, and lead to Josh Wink being signed to Sony as an artist. Nervous also released an album by two Long Island based dj’s, DJ Micro and Vicious Vic. The album, entitled “Progress Into Our Future,” since became a seminal album for the crew of Long Island dj’s that currently dominate clubs with their hard trance sound.

In 1996, Nervous virtually single-handedly created a garage house music revival by releasing the debut solo artist album by house music legend Byron Stingily. Byron was formerly the lead singer of gold-selling group Ten City. His second single on Nervous, “Get Up,” went to number one on dance charts around the world, including the Billboard Magazine club chart in America.. For his album, “The Purist,” Nervous assembled an all-star cast of legendary House producers, including Frankie Knuckles, Masters At Work, David Morales, Basement Boys, Maurice Joshua and MK.

As the musical trends continued to evolve in the late 90’s, Nervous continued to create new imprints to remain at the cutting edge of all independent labels. Nervous Dog was created to accommodate the emerging harder-edged house sound of New York; Strapped was the home for uptempo, club oriented hip hop Party tracks; and Nervous Chill released the down tempo, jazzy grooves that are always in vogue in the newest restaurants.

The label also has had many successful tours over the years. One of the biggest was in 2,000, when the Nervous tour was sponsored by Playboy Magazine and KAMEL cigarettes, and featured DJ’s Jackie Christie, Razor-n-Guido and DJ Escape, along With PA’s by Nervous artists Byron Stingily, Charlotte And Kim English. In addition, Nervous created what became one of the Winter Music Conference’s most original Parties, the Nervous After-hours breakfast at Denny’s, which featured an International list of dj’s entertaining conference attendees at 5:00 AM while they ate their grand slam Denny’s breakfast.

In 2000 and 2001, the energy tribal sound dominated the US club and Nervous gave America’s club-goers four of the its most dominant anthems, “Skin” by Charlotte, “Ssst…Listen” by Jonah, “Unspeakable Joy” by Kim English and Dive In The Pool by Barry Harris featuring Pepper Meshay. During this same time, the label has also created many successful compilation series, among them “Hip Hop Independent’s Day,” and “Future Progressive,” and “Club Nervous.

As the hits grew in number, so did the value of the catalogue for sampling purposes. Nervous songs have been sampled in major hits by Mariah Carey, New Edition, Coolio, Flip Squad, Basement Jax, George Michael, Soulsearcher and more..

In 2006 Nervous gave the US one of the biggest dance radio records with What A Feeling by Peter Luts & Dominico, a track which won the 2007 WMC award for Best Euro Dance track. In addition, Nervous delivered the most memorable US underground track of the year with Ralph Falcon – I Need Someone, which was also number one club record of 2007 according to Billboard Magazine.

In 2008 Nervous had two of the top five most played records of the year at dance radio, with Bellatrax feat. Sophia May/I Can’t Help Myself and Every Word by Ercola featuring Daniella, and ended the year as the two most played label at dance radio in the USA according to Billboard Magazine.

Nervous has also made a strong foray into the compilation market, building a roster with some of the most credible house music. The past twelve months has seen full length cd’s from Oscar G, Ralph Falcon, Funkagenda, Mark Brown, Behrouz, Chris Lake, Starkillers & Austin Leeds, DJ Theo, Exacta and Marlon D. Second half of 2009 will see releases from Danny Krivit, Frankie Knuckles, Tom Stephan, Peter Bailey and Richie Santana and Anane (produced by Louie Vega. 

In the grand tradition of Nervous launching sub-labels to embrace the next sounds to take over Nitelife ... In 2011 we launched Nurvous Records.  With the Indie Dance / Nu-Disco sound that has erupted from England and is now barreling towards full speed in America, one of our primary goals is to provide innovative homegrown style; and bringing back emotion to the music, squashing the over-commercialized big-room invasion.
