VINYL RELEASE: 9/23/2014
DISTRIBUTOR: Crosstalk International

Two of the Black Madonna's most sought after early tracks return to circulation alongside one burning new jam on Goodbye To All This, the latest release from Stripped & Chewed. 

Drawn from the Chicago label's 2012 compilation Livin' For The City EP, the piano dappled joy of "Exodus" luxuriates across side A, spreading the good word with a pounding beat. "We Don't Need No Music (Thank You, Rahaan)" from SCRS004 takes another whirl around the dancefloor, its pinwheeling horns and infectious vocals pulling even wallflowers into the fray. And in case two remastered sure-shots aren't enough, the brand new "Who Do You Need" closes the record with a soulful thwack: half uplifting house, half blistering techno -- all peak-time fodder. A fine addition to the Black Madonna's discography alongside records for Argot, The Nite Owl Diner, Hometaping Is Killing Music, and of course Stripped & Chewed.

Following releases on Argot and Smart Bar Chicago's North Side '82 label, Savile's Stripped & Chewed debut, No Sleep, Not In America, is a study in simplicity and its power on the dancefloor. 

Drawing from diverse American influences, the release's title track is a 130bpm wonky techno scorcher with an undulating funky bassline; A2 "When I Blow Fire" kicks the tempo down a notch and features the kind of vocal sample guaranteed to stick in your head; B1 "The Only Rule Is Work" is a cavernous house number anchored by a crystalline synth; and B2 "Thanks To The Heads in Jackson Park," plays like a love letter to classic Chicago house. 

No Sleep, Not In America tells you something: "My reference points are almost entirely American artists and genres," explains Savile. "Detroit and Chicago are the anchor points of the sound I'm chasing, and I'm enamored with the sweat equity that it took to maintain these cities' scenes and output at their peak."

Stripped & Chewed's latest is a four-track 12" of elemental house grooves from Midwestern upstart Appian with a remix by Chicago's Bell Boys. Warm, sensual, and gloriously straightforward, SCRS012 is a modern study in the timelessness of house music.

If you've ever had the pleasure of descending into the underworld of Chicago house, the gate was probably opened by one of our legendary hosts. As famous and beloved as any DJ, Chicago's rich underground is guarded by a stunning cast of colorful, costumed characters. Byrd, Sal-E, Ruby, Jojo, and many more than we could name here have defined our city for decades.

Keepers of the list and lives of the party, it's only natural that such hosts have a history of inspiring tracks. With his residency as a muse, Garrett David affectionately produces a glimpse into his Sunday night residency with "The Queen! Track" and "Dub." The release is rounded out by two deep, powerful cuts sure to convince you that the new generation of the Chicago underground is alive and well, "Tunnels" and "The Pressure."

Garrett's playful, spirited and catty window into our city features a flock of Chicago's beloved- Sal E, Ruby D,Tine, and Steven Chapman Webster. This is a four track nightlife-dedicated record with personality. An unforgettable debut.
