Not content with presiding over three out- standing labels - Dessous, Audiomatique and Poker Flat (now in its 16th year) - and dusting down his long-dormant Traffic Si- gns pseudonym for the brilliant "Cookie Jar", Steve Bug finds time in his schedule to spoil you with another stellar release.

The title track "Coconut Paradise" is a ma- sterclass in crisp, high-definition house, as dubby synths, a solid kick and an insistent bass stab form a deeply hypnotic groove. Sustained tones surge in from the distance - all the elements coming together to create a perpetual motion machine.

"Thick As Mud" lives up to its name: this is house music that draws on the deep and deadly palette and spacious arrangements of dubstep and glitch, burnished with sni- ckering percussive repetitions and scything synths.

"Pants on Fire" is a restlessly inventive bricolage of unconventional percussive sounds and textures. Metallic tones ping and bounce deliciously in every direction.

One EP. Three outstanding tunes. Another formidable addition to an impressive discography.

Select Cuts 344: Markus Homm

There's good, and then there's great. And then there's essential. Steve Bug and his Poker Flat label, which is over fifteen years old now, are perennials in house and techno. Bug, German by birth, attained this canonical status through the sheer will of groove and melody, and his debut MIXED BY makes it look easy.

"We never want to go with the next big thing. We don't want to try to impress people with the newest artists who are super-hyped," Bug told THUMP last year. "We'd rather release music that has a timeless feel to it, rather than whatever is hip right now."

Lucky for Bug, house and techno are probably more hip than they've ever been, and his academic understanding of the history of club culture gushes from the speakers with every kick.

The mix features Poker Flat artists like Tim Engelhardt, Joeski, and Bug himself, before dropping cuts from Seth Troxler, Ten Ven, and Poker Flat alumni Josh Wink. With thirteen tracks in one hour, it shows you don't need to set off fireworks every minute to keep the crowd moving.

"I want to make people happy with the music that I like," says Bug. "I'd rather drown in my own sound than survive by doing something I don't really feel."

“This mix captures what I am playing and making right now. Chunky house built for the club, rolling basslines, and low-slung, heavy-set grooves. I slipped in two new records of mine, a remix for Get Physical, the Steve Bug collaboration that just landed on Pokerflat, and a cut from my fresh Rekids EP”

Drawing on releases from the last five years, Dessous Recordings gather together a choice selection of Steve Bug's stellar remixes. It's a compilation that showcases an array of glittering talent and provides a snapshot of the maestro's signature sound. As 'The Long Run' - Bug's collaboration with Victor Font - makes clear, this is house music that sees itself as part of a grand tradition, following in the footsteps of US pioneers from both Chicago and NYC. In line with this, a number of bona fide living legends get the Bug treatment, from the hypnotic vibes of Chez Damier's seminal 'CanYou Feel It' to the blue-tinged chords that lift Ron Allen's 'Wordz' to the brittle semiquavers that act as a perfect foil to the soaring vocals on 'Rise' - an undoubted album highlight.

Within the limits of the deep house blueprint, there are surprises at every turn, from the blissful chords of Lovebirds' 'The Rain' to the immersive repetitions of Martin Müller's youAND:THEMACHINES project to the buoyant pulse of Manuel Tur's 'Ara Anam'. For uncompromising lovers of all things deep, there's Simon Baker's 'Grey Area', lifted by dancing cowbells galore, and a hard-hitting version of Ric McClelland's Scope. And for DJs with an eye on the dancefloor there's Bug's rework of 'At Midnight' - his collaboration with Vincenzo from way back in 2000 - an irresistible groove with an incredibly catchy synth riff.

We're also treated to two re-imaginings of contemporary classics. From earlier this year, there's Bug's stripped-back sub bass heavy version of Garnier's 'Whistle for Frankie' while the deeply reflective take on Francis Harris's 'Pensum' provides the perfect comedown to a glorious long night.

Tracklisting:
01. Chez Damier: CanYou Feel It - NewYork Dub (Steve Bug Re-Dub)

Steve Bug - Lifting The Anchor (MHRLP020)

Steve Bug at Necto Pt.2 - 2.7.2002

Sosu es una DJ costarricense de House y Techno que encuentra un punto de inflexión en el Acid House que renace en los últimos tiempos en la escena global.
Inicio a mezclar en el 2015, sin embargo su crecimiento se empezó con fuerza en el escena local costarricense en el 2018 y empezó a llamar la atención internacionalmente a finales del 2019, con un sonido intenso cargado de acid sounds y groovy beats mezclado con muchos breaks, los dj sets de Sosu nos invitan a bailar bajo la estela de un underground refinado y diferente a lo que se suena regularmente en los clubes y eventos de Costa Rica. Lo que viene nos remite sin lugar a dudas a la jungla de concreto con colores más oscuros y muy elegantes.

Peggy Gou | Boiler Room: Streaming From Isolation

Only one show away from the magic 200! But before that we have EP-199 with a very special guest from Seattle. I had the pleasure to meet Parker (@parkermills) when I was going to play in that great city for the Stayin' Alive Parties and others. Parker is one of the residents there and after hearing this set you will understand why.

His bio reads:

Cutting his teeth in the Miami house scene, Parker moved to Seattle in 2017 with a mission to bring the sounds he was influenced by to Seattle. His penchant for Soul, Disco, and leftfield house led to an opportunity to open for the legendary Questlove, as well as gaining the first residency of Seattle’s very own weekly disco revival, Stayin Alive. Whether it’s experimental house, Nu Disco, or soul classics, he has a singular focus on music that evokes an emotional response on the dance floor. Catch him as a regular at Stayin Alive, at the occasional jaunt at the Kremwerk complex, or at one of his charity pop ups under his non profit, Give ’n Groove!

Please give Parker some love at these social links:

The NDYD Radio Show EP199 - guest mix by Parker Mills - Seattle

Starting our second century of podcasts the way we finished the first we have something rather special in store for you. For the 101st edition of our mix series, we welcome none other than the nu school house trio of Mandar.

Singularly the triple threat of S.A.M., Malin Génie, and Lazare Hoche has delivered a truly diverse take on house across their own labels and countless others. Collectively the story is even more impressive as they produced one of the standout tracks of 2018 in ‘String Theory’ which came via their own label Oscillat Music. The output from this fine group of artists as Mandar is few and far between but what does come out via the Mandar moniker is always on point and always worth the wait.

The same can be said about their podcasts, so the fact we have them for our next instalment is something to write home about…
