Big good ones

„Riddim & Bassline“ are the main ingredients for the opener of his
„Honey Badger EP“. A rumbling, buzzing and funk loaden predator digs his way into our ear canal.

„Sry I’m dazed AF“ - words we‘d sometimes like to address our supervisor with, especially after a serious weekend night out. A grating, distorted Miami Bass variant on a Deep House bouquet that lives up to his title.

„True Brew“ also starts wonderfully imperfect. Blustering beats and scruffy hi hats are being perfectly paired with a piano harmony. Bring us another two or twenty of this special drink!

Last but not least we got a remix by none other than DMX Krew, who provides a bubbly finish to „Riddim & Bassline“. There is not much left to say, cos if you got Ed DMX on your record, really everything has been said.

“Have you ever had a dream that was so full of desire that waking up was an aggrievement? Dream Lover is about desires so deep in the mind that it won't let you go” - Kim Anh 

Inspired by retro disco and cold electro sounds, Kim Anh follows up her extremely well-received first EP and subsequent remix package with a captivating new single, alongside a dub remix from Jkriv. Kim Anh has been a part of underground dance culture for over a decade, always drawing on the early styles of classic house and disco, adding her own flavourful twists. She is now a globally recognised, chart-topping DJ, producer and singer-songwriter, frequently taking centre stage at underground parties across LA, NYC and the world.

The dark and alluring 'Dream Lover' has thin, chilly and sustained pads in the background while the rugged bass and raw drums make for a snappy, up-front groove. The icing on the cake is the commanding vocal unfolding under a nebulous ecosystem of retro-future cosmic melodies. It's an alluring and stylish sound that also comes as an instrumental.

Remixer and Brooklyn-based star JKriv boasts releases on Soundway Records, Glitterbox, Z Records and his own celebrated label Razor-N-Tape. He brings seasoned musicality to everything he touches and is a trained musician known for dazzling live instrumentation. This remix is a steamy and intense dance floor workout with stripped-back drums and dubbed-out, euphoric sounds carefully laid over its corrugated bassline. It's a brilliantly seductive late-night sound.

"Let's open our books, flick to page 1, and start our Riddimz of Praise journey with a 3-track EP. The EP starts off with an enticingly smooth bop called 'Neutralize.' It's then followed tastefully by the straight-forward club groove 'Synaptic Pulse' and finishes politely with a heart-pumping bounce named 'Nitty Gritty.'"

Niteffect has made a concept album for us, dedicated to Man's Best Friend and our puppy Dalmata Daniel couldn't be more honoured!

This album is Niteffect's debut on our label, but we are not talking about a rookie producer, because he has been releasing music since 2007 mostly on Hamburg-based Kreislauf. His music is mainly characterized by strong emotion melodies, deep basses mixing with downtempo, trip-hop, idm, and deep house sound elements.

Man's Best Friend is an electro-oriented album, sometimes with breaks or other broken beats sound, but the most common that all the tracks have deep emotional synth waves. Niteffect playfully uses these to create melancholic and more upbeat moods, creating a varied but coherent whole, perfectly capturing the changing experiences of a summer vibe.

Laura Hairdressa is a rising star from Vilnius, not only a professional hairdresser but also a producer and singer with a low, deep voice that easily reminds listeners of early Madonna. Her passion for music culminated in the release of 4 debut songs, where pop structures and melodies blend seamlessly with the authentic sound of 90’s club music genres like house, breakbeat, and UK groove.

However, despite the easy-to-dance-to club music base, don't be fooled - Hairdressa's lyrics delve much deeper. Her songs touch on themes such as painful breakups, the blinding euphoria of substance use, fear of intimacy, and a zest for life. The result is a collection of beautiful and sophisticated songs that can find a place both on the radio and the dance floor.

The incredible remix support comes from beloved artists like Lauer, as well as talented musicians from Lithuania, including Auren, Cport Cistema, and Pletnev.

Somehow It Feels Important

PREMIERE: Hairdressa - Anything Like Us (Pletnev Remix)

Not An Animal is a label that was born from the party debris left uncleaned from London’s infamous Bad Passion parties, run by Chris Stoker and Andy Bainbridge. The leftfield imprint’s next release comes from label co-pilot Andy Bainbridge himself, who has been DJing for over 25 years, and as an integral part of the Bad Passion crew together with Stoker, they ran their infamous parties in the East corner of London. Andy Bainbridge has DJ’d extensively throughout Europe and is a mainstay at festivals like Houghton and Love International. His music production includes making tracks as part of Machete Savane, Latrec and A.M Edits, with releases on Felix Dickinson's Cynic, Futureboogie and Is It Balearic. 
 
For his debut solo release on Not An Animal, Andy Bainbridge serves up a raw, late-night house dub, accompanied by sizzling remixes from Donaldʼs House and Komodo for good measure. ‘Up Too Much’ starts simply evoking house classics of old. Dubby percussion sets the genre, the Buchla synth wobbles that form the tracks melody are delicately peppered with acid sprinkles and a vocal garnish bringing the track squarely into the modern day to form a tough yet gentle roller.  Next off the pass is the Donaldʼs House remix, finely weaving the essence of the original mix into a proggy sidewinder, highlighting the acid arps previously lurking in the background and slowly melting the track into a delicious trancey mess. Closing out, Komodo kicks off in a classic Chicago style; claps, stabs and all, with vocal samples adding that extra texture for that knockout punch.

Not An Animal Records is made up of Andy Bainbridge and Chris Stoker and has always sat well on the left. The slick London imprint has been dancing around the club scene playing at the cooler end of the festival circuit for a decade with their wonky underground disco selections born out of their party, Bad Passion. This edge of the arc attitude is mirrored in their label output with a run of releases from the upper echelons of the scene from Man Power, Ian Blevins, James Hadfield, Que Sakamoto, Komodo, and Ponty Mython. On its next gift to the underground club world label co-head Andy Bainbridge steps in with his debut solo on his home label serving up much late nite goodness with a couple of remixes that will blow your mind.  The original cut ‘Up Too Much’ is an evocative classic house cut with lashings of acid, while the Donalds House Remix moves further to the left amping up the acid waves and the trance. Komodo’s Remix closes out in true Chicago style for the win.

Danny Rowland was born in West London and was a life loving family man. A friend to many, and a DJ to dance to as Danny loved house!  Sadly, this much respected human left the earth three years ago after a long and brave fight with cancer. This album is put together with a lot of love by Lofty & Tommy D of Chillifunk (Flying Records) to celebrate Danny’s life and his productions, and to honour his memory with all proceeds going to nominated charities.  This is also in memory of the late Brett Taylor.
 
‘From Beavers to Bora Bora’ is a tribute to a love for music, the unforgettable memories created, and the clubland adventures that will be tales for generations to come. The music you'll discover on this LP has long since vanished from record shop shelves, as it was only ever available on vinyl and is now rare and hard to find.  It's a celebration of the 90s house sound, when house music reigned supreme and dancefloors from South London's Ministry of Sound to iconic clubs in New York, Chicago, Detroit, and Ibiza throbbed with that 90s dancefloor energy. Celebrating the life of a West London DJ, producer, husband and father  - the much missed Danny Rowland  - it features productions and collaborations with Danny J Lewis and Lol Graves, and Brett Taylor.
 
Danny & Brett's musical journey began on the Beavers Estate in Hounslow, with dreams of leaving Hounslow behind and embarking on an adventure that took them to Ibiza and to Bora Bora. After Danny's passing in 2020, a void was left in the lives of his family and friends and they had an idea - to create an album celebrating his love of life and music by compiling his productions with friends and collaborators. It's a positive and joyous tribute that can be enjoyed not only by his nearest and dearest but also by those who are open to discover the music created by Danny Rowland, Brett Taylor, Danny J Lewis, and Lol Graves.

Established in 2016, Little Giant Records is the Brooklyn-born label founded by Anna Cavazos that specializes in the kind of deep house sounds that belong in the dark and sweaty basements of underground clubs. Anna is a DJ, producer, and vocalist who has lived between LA, NYC, and Berlin. Her love affair with house began in 2001 when she started spinning in New York City, and after featuring as a vocalist in works with Sandy Rivera, Bah Samba and Steve Mill, Anna stepped into the studio to begin her production debut. Now her discography includes original compositions, remixes, and collaborations with the likes of Satoshi Tomiie and Eli Escobar. Anna Cavazos has played out across the globe for over 15 years, mixing and blending the deep house sounds of Chicago, New York, and Berlin. She has played at Soho House Berlin, Pacha in Ibiza, and the rooftop of Le Bain in New York City, her releases hosted on King Street Sounds, Madhouse, Nite Grooves, What Happens and Defected.
 
The EP kicks off with the original of ‘Love Interlude’ - melancholic and piano-heavy with an ultra-deep baseline embellished with warm pads and soulful drums.  Anna’s soulful vocal floats above the melody creating an emotional and moving interlude. Next up Matthias Vogt delivers a deep-house masterpiece adding extra keys, drum accents, and a well-placed baseline that is weaved neatly into the vocal hook while Vogt delivers the warm, jazz-flecked vibrations he is well known for. Up next Rick Wade weighs in with some ever so classy house laced with flashes from the Motor City of Detroit. Warm electro piano, glowing synths, and vocal parts contrast with the deep sub baseline. Closing out this EP Rissa Garcia draws heavily on her New York house inspirations. Organ riffs and a funk-inspired bass line lead the charge dropping in and out between vocal harmonies and subtle synth work. Percussive accents bring it all home making this closing cut one dancefloor destroying, peak-time bomb.

Circuit Grooves is set to end the year on a high note with Slow Assembly’s innovative release, "Paramount," dropping on Friday, December 29, 2023. This two-track EP see's Slow Assembly continue his work at the intersections of different genres, where Acid Jazz meets the pulsating world of house beats, souped up with beats that dance around a core of rhythmic complexity.

"Paramount" opens the EP with the the original mix, an embodiment of Slow Assembly's vision. Here, the synth work is ecclectic and engrossing, creating a soundscape where jazz’s improvisational spirit meets the steady drive of house music. Following this vibrant opener we have the ZOiD Remix, an Acid track that infuses the original with a fresh, eclectic twist, seamlessly blending the more jazzy synth elements with acid undertones.

Innovative and nostalgic. As the year comes to a close, "Paramount" stands as a statement from Slow Assembly and Circuit Grooves, blurring the lines between genres, and taking you along for the ride.
