Dynamic UK duo Him_Self_Her are back on the essential Crosstown Rebels with another bumping deep house burner ‘Love You Like I Used To’ once again featuring the distinctive vocal chops of Kieran Fowkes who also appeared on previous Crosstown hit ‘Gone Too Long’ (which spent 11 weeks at the top of the Beatport chart). Featuring a tough and distorted remix from hot property Francesca Lombardo and the driving cosmic force of UK disco darlings Psychemagik on the flip, this is a house track for the peak season of al fresco hands-in-the-air dancefloors.

Claire and Leon aka Him_Self_Her have been producing together since 2012 when they hit it off on a musical level during their formative time on the local house scene in Leicester. All that it took was one studio session to realise the potency of their union and their genre blending productions showcase a range of deep grooves and disco infused techno with a human heart. With their breakthrough release ‘Gone Too Long’ sparking the attention of none other than Pete Tong, he promptly made it his Essential New Tune and support followed from heavyweight DJs such as Jamie Jones. Next releases came on Elite Records and OFF Recordings.

House music with feeling!

Cat No: ALiVE070 
Artist: Copy Paste Soul & Tom Budden 
Title: Rise EP 
Remix: N/A 
Release Date: 13th April 2015 

ALiVE’s next release sees a collaborative effort from label head Tom Budden and Copy Paste Soul, who, along with having just remixed Laurent Garnier has also been made a new resident of the revered Ministry of Sound in London. First up is their joint production ‘Rise’; a superbly uplifting yet understated slice of modern house music. Copy Paste Soul goes it alone next with ‘On Point’, an altogether more uptempo affair, this dance-floor gem’s bass-line drop midway through really marks it out as somewhat of a weapon. ‘Shouldn’t be Here’ sees Tom Budden hark back to the glorious rave days of yesteryear with more brilliantly nostalgic breakbeat infused house music.

“It’s a four minute twenty five second rippling beat opus that soars and whooshes but holds down the tempo, using the keys and the Armand Van Helden­esque beat builds and rave snares to push it into the strobelights.” ­ – DMC World Magazine

After a massive 2014, Chris Lake returned to his roots with “Chest” which came out on Ultra earlier this year. Just in time for summer, Chris Lake returns in collaboration with Ghostwriter, solo producer, and one­half of Midlands duo Cause & Affect, Chris Lorenzo for latest single, “Piano Hand”.

Premiered by Annie Mac on her BBC Radio 1 Show, “Piano Hand” features a slick bass line groove, quirky cut­up vocal samples, and a very speed garage­influenced sound very characteristic of Chris Lorenzo.

Known for his modern house sound infused with funked­out grooves, London­born and LA­-based Chris Lake was signed to Ultra Music in 2012 after perfecting his signature sound through a series of well­received releases and two Essential Mixes.

Mr Beatnick is a scholar and a gentleman - a bona fide expert in everything soulful and strange, from jungle to Sun Ra, broken beat to retro drum machines, a very fine DJ indeed, and a general man about London town. In addition, since he turned his hand to four-to-the-floor beats with the majestic "Synthetes" in 2011, he's slyly become one of the best synthetic disco producers in the world. This one had us smiling and swaying in the office on first play, and will sound like pure gold in a party situation.

Martín Vidal - Lost **FREE DOWNLOAD**

So you're Just Her. You've had a successful run as engineer and songwriter for Crosstown Rebels affiliates Him_Self_Her, and you're starting to make waves a solo artist with an EP on Suara; what do you do next? Set up a label, of course!

The brainchild of Leicester's favourite daughter, Constant Circles kicks off in style with the shadowy grooves of 'Silence'. Mellow, yet eerily sinister, the track showcases Just Her's skill at building strong emotions through minimal design. And when that little garage-like shuffle drops in - well we may have even swooned a little.

Out August 3rd, the Silence EP is completed by remixes from Dubai's Raxon, Pete Oak and Martín Vidal. Stream 'Silence' below and head to the Constant Circles website to keep up-to-date with this exciting new label.

Premiere: Tom Budden - Want To Go Back (ALiVE Recordings)

ONNO is back with his own unique brand of no frills techno with two new cuts that get remixed to perfection by Martin Landsky.

ONNO has been a big presence in Ibiza and the rest of the European club circuit over the past few years, playing places like Ants at Ushuaia on the reg. His DJ skill, as evidenced at places like Panorama Bar and Watergate in Berlin, is also carried over into the studio, where he cooks up heavyweight house tracks full of funk. He has done so on labels like ViVA, Saved and Moon Harbour and has become known for his bass heavy blend of house and techno.

First up, Some Mo is a gritty, dubbed out roller with seriously weighty kicks. A clipped vocal gets heavy filter treatment and moves about in the mix as industrial chords swell louder and louder. It’s a really slow burning banger. PokerFlat regular and long time production hero Martin Landsky of classics like ‘1000 Miles’ remixes with a more house focused drum line and more fluid chord progressions. The smooth, rolling track that results is a real groover.

Rounding out the top package is another hugely textured, lo fi dub techno roller with monstrous rubber kicks, stiff and icy hi hats and swelling chords. “Stabbing Sally’ kicks like a mule after a teasing start and really has a fine sense of seeing in its bones.

This is a perfectly fun and functional club EP that is sure to find many fans in the underground.
