Red Light Quadrant is Neighbour, Elan Benaroch, and Tyler Greentree.

CAT: NT070
ARTIST: Billy W.
TITLE: U Just Don't Know
RELEASE: February 14, 2012 

01 U Just Don't Know (Original Mix)
02 U Just Don't Know (Sean Thomas Drumsong Dub)
03 Intuition

---------------

The Nordic Trax - Philadelphia connection continues with this debut from producer Billy W. The title track on ‘U Just Don’t Know’ is a deep and uplifting house jam, with a techy stomper of a remix from our old friend Sean Thomas, who finally gets to flex his considerable skills for NT. ‘Intuition’ takes things into more moody deep house territory. Early support from Scope, Marques Wyatt, Deepchild, Franck Roger, Luke Solomon &amp; King Britt.

---------------

Billy W may be new to the production game, but his deep and slower tempo house grooves have already gained early support from King Britt, Pete Moss and Cosmo Baker among others. After years of record collecting, touring in punk bands and honing his production game, Billy W is bringing back the deep in 2012. As co-promoter of Philadelphia party Robotique, he has hosted the likes of Rich Medina, Ron Trent, Spinna, Kon &amp; Amir and Trus'Me to name a few.

Sean Thomas is a Philly veteran and long time NT supporter who can regularly be found dropping his own precious jams on his Sound Between Movement label, which continues to deliver with every release.  Sean can also be found on labels including Worship, Warmth, Recline and Straight Shot, and will remix for Lost My Dog later in 2012. With his remix here he takes things on a little more of a dark, late night vibe.

HUMANS - 02 - De Ciel

ARTIST: Gavin Boyce 
TITLE: Divine In You 
CAT: NT071 
RELEASE: May 15, 2012

01 Main Mix 
02 Fish Go Deep Remix 
03 Alternate Mix 
04 Klubmix Dub 
05 On You

-------------------

Our favourite Irishman Gavin Boyce delivers his biggest track to date with the very slinky disco-groover ‘Divine In You’. Superbly programmed beats, a deep as the ocean bassline, sweeping pads and just enough of a vocal hook look set to make this a deep house anthem. Cork deep house legends Fish Go Deep join in the fun with a more energetic and driving remix, while Boyce adds a funky instrumental and alternate mix for house lovers of all shades. A big piano-led bonus track ‘On You’ only serves to make this release even more unmissable.

-------------------

'Divine In You' is Gavin Boyce’s fourth EP for Vancouver’s deep house institution Nordic Trax and cements his ties with the label. His previous releases – ‘Rooftop Soul EP’, ‘Face Down EP’ and ‘Sometimes Its Me’ – have received widespread support from DJs including Laurent Garnier, Nacho Marco, Ralf Gum, Mark Farina,Jay Tripwire, Mazi and Kaskade.

Boyce has also worked with Alphabet, Chillin', Kolour and Shak, and can be found recording as Untaken City. His tracks have been licensed to OM Records and Ministry of Sound among others. Gavin lives in Waterford, Ireland, and regularly plays at the club nights Republik and Resistance alongside the likes of Mark Farina, Kerri Chandler and Charles Webster.

Remixers Fish Go Deep are house music royalty. The duo of Shane Johnson and Greg Dowling have been releasing records since 1997 and resident DJs at Ireland’s longest running house club night ‘Sweat’ at Sir Henrys in Cork for 10 years previous to that. They are best known for their anthem ‘The Cure & The Cause’ with Tracy K, released through Defected in 2006, peaking at #23 in the UK charts. More underground tracks have appeared on Brique Rouge, Chez, i! Records, Om and their own goDeep and Ork imprints.
