quintessentials 40: 4004 & sebastien vorhaus - looking at you ep

12"/digital out late june/early july

It’s a great pleasure to announce the first release from mexican duo 4004 & Sebastien Vorhaus. They might not run as fast as Speedy Gonzales, but their music is super hot, deep and raw! Yeah you know we like that at Quintessentials...... 4004 & Sebastien Vorhaus work together as well as solo and their work has already been signed by the almighty Faces Records (Pablo Valentino and MCDE). Plus they also set up their own label, Vicario Musique, so these are definitely names to watch. Viva Mexico!

Cody Currie & Kapote together in the studio! Delivering a 4 track EP that connects proto-disco, neo soul, Chicago house beats and jazz funk in a very spontaneous, super catchy way.
Cody, the London multi-talent musician, and Kapote, the Berlin-based creative head of Toy Tonics have a lot in common. Both come from studying jazz, knowing different instruments, having played in bands, and at the same time being DJs with a huge passion and the skill to rock thousands of people every weekend at the Toy Tonics Jams with a wild mix of different music. They have what we call THE VIBE. Soulful, catchy, intense. When they play records at a party and when they work on tracks. Both play keyboards, bass, guitar, and drums. Both sing. And both have funny nicknames that journalists gave them: Cody Currie was called “the Tom Misch of House music” and Kapote the “Wes Anderson of electronic music”. Makes us laugh but also fits well. And yes: Both are a bit crazy... like every extremely talented musician.

Artist: Le Hutin
Track: Jazzin The House
Title: Love Is The Answer LP
Label: Basics Recordings
Cat No: BSREC033
Format: Album
Genre: House / Garage House / Jazz House / 90s music / Funky / Soulful
Release Date: 12.06.2025
Buy / Pre Order: https://spoti.fi/42QY4R8

Le Hutin’s new album “Love Is The Answer” is just around the corner, set for release on Thursday, June 12th. It follows the series of Le Hutin's LP releases: “The Sexophonist” LP (2021), “DIVE” LP (2022), and “Expectation?!” Album (2023).

Made up of 26 tracks, the album showcases at best the wide range of Le Hutin's multiple influences. Not willing to be glued to a purely House Music release, he keeps House — his favorite genre — as the absolute core of the project, around which everything revolves, keeping the sonic exploration alive. As the album unfolds, you will come across 90s, Garage, UK House, Jazz, Funk, Soul, Hip Hop, Punk Rock, Disco, Latin, and Moroccan influences.

Le Hutin's music is a mirror of his emotions, life experiences, travels, and personal situations. Late 2023 marked a tough restart after leaving his first project — the “De La Groove” label and collective he founded and carried out since 2016 — hence the album’s name. He is now standing tall and thriving, bringing music that is true to his soul, real for listeners, and more intimate than ever, with the presence of deeper and more unusual tracks such as an Introduction, Interludes, and an Outro. This is enhanced by the fact that he is recording, post-producing, and creating 99% of his music himself, while also using his own vocals more regularly.

ARTIST WORDS

“I am so glad to finally be able to present you my second very long format Album. It takes time to build a full record that you feel can look and sound as you are, free of compromises on the music and with the art. Love Is The Answer is not only a moto that can be applied to almost any context and situation, it also portrays at best my intentions about music and life.
I have been heavily inspired by St Germain’s work, Masters At Work impressive mix of electronic and organic elements, Armand Van Helden’s energy, Junior Jack and Fatboy Slim’s craziness, but also some various music that had a strong imprint on me; from my more regular listening (such as Linkin Park, Mac Miller, George Benson, Sade, Sly & The Family, Eminem, Kanye early music, Supertramp, Dire Straits, Nils Frahm, Enya, Gregory Porter, Nina Simone, Vulfpeck among many). No EP or track could really cover all I wanted to share in there, experimenting and distilling as music, hence the 26 tracks. I am also happy to let you know you will be listening to almost purely new and composed material, a big collection of my own recording delivered straight from my heart to you.

I only hope you spend some good time listening, and that I will spark some emotions in you, coz that’s what music is all about.” Le Hutin

quintessentials 96: ralph session feat. juliet mendoza - mad deep (incl. jerome sydenham remix)
out on 12" and digital mid june.

Quintessentials welcomes back Ralph Session, whose previous drop ‘For The House Heads’ is still turning in crates and sets worldwide. This time, he dives into peak deep territory with 'Mad Deep'. The name says it all. It’s a masterclass in heavy yet soulful, hypnotic House. Reuniting with LA’s rising star Juliet Mendoza after their much-loved collaboration on Freerange Records last year. Her sultry voice and commanding presence just brings the title track to life. If that wasn’t enough, we are so excited to include a masterful remix from House music legend Jerome Sydenham!  It’s dense, rhythmic, and uncompromising cool. Finally, 'Sway' closes the Ep with a late-night super sweet yet driving House tune that stays true to the underground spirit. Built for selectors, dancers, and true Deep House heads heavy rotation is guaranteed. There’s deep and then there’s Mad Deep!
