VA - No Dough, Just Cookies pt4. [TAR14]

Booty-shaking & mind-moving! The new S3A release specifically originated and is meant for the dancefloor, one dancefloor in particular to be precise. Taking experience from his alma-mater Rex-Club in Paris, S3A crafts a 4-track EP to honour this legendary venue in the heart of Parisian music history.
The label Times Are Ruff releases a steady stream of DJ-friendly tools and dancefloor ready house-tracks, with a hint to the past but never sounding dated.

CC Premieres: TIMES ARE RUFF - COSMIC PHUNK [Times Are Ruff]

After a five-year hiatus, Times Are Ruff is back, recharged and inspired. This return marks a renewed commitment to the underground, bringing that ruff sound.

The label returns to the wax with the sound they are known for, defined by dusty grooves, ruff rhythms and soulful moods.

This record is for the heads. A proper blend of funk, acid, late-night vibes and early morning moods, that keep the floor moving and the soul intact. Pure, stripped-back house music for those who know.

Times Are Ruff—back in the game, staying true to the craft, and ready to deliver more underground cuts.

Times Are Ruff - Electrocorp Mixtape #80

The noise from the hollow shell echoed around the whole house. In his bedroom he was free to do as he pleased, create as much carefully crafted noise as his heart desired. However, just for fun, he felt like today was the day to introduce the concept of the five minute bass drum solo. The kick bounced and bounced between the four walls of the tiny chamber, the window shook firmly inside the frame as the dull thud began to boom and boom and boom and boom. 

Liem and Eddie Ness have collaborated on a new track as part of a new compilation from Times Are Ruff. The new release also features appearances from the likes of Fouk, S3A and more.

PREMIERE: Liem & Eddie Ness - 5 Min Bass Drum Solo [Times Are Ruff]

To celebrate their fifth anniversary, Den Haag label Times Are Ruff are coming with a special fourth entry into their No Dough, Just Cookies compilation series. While previous releases in the No Dough line have been limited to one disc, TAR has doubled up on this one--placing the likes of Fouk, S3A, Liem & Eddie Ness and in-house DJ team Times Are Ruff themselves. It's a cool collection of tunes displaying the mixture of both the deep house and disco-leaning aesthetics the Dutch label has harbored over the course of their run.
Your Bolting Bits premiere comes from the first slot of this seven track release. At the helm is the unknown K98, who comes correct with gospel-tinged disco house jam. Filtered samples build tension over a drum machine, using looped vocals and organ stabs to raise the energy. The rises and falls are cleverly designed, resulting in a jammy and climactic final third which unleashes more of the vocal sample as well as a chopped up solo. This one should certainly find success on the dancefloor and in DJ's crates, given the monstrous reception of gospel-sampling house tracks like thatmanmonkz' "For Bae" or Karizma's ever-rinsed "Work It Out".

The compilation itself has something for everyone--ranging from the gospel/disco house stylings of our premiere to more moody deep house and even some acid-tinged material. Anyways, the 2x 12" should be out soon, and can be preordered on Decks

The newest release from Dutch imprint Times Are Ruff comes in the form of a 4 track EP from sampling afficionado S3A, a seasoned producer who’s been putting out hot records at a steady pace since 2012. S3A’s latest EP ‘Rexperience’ is an ode to Rex-Club, a legendary Parisian venue known in 92' for the Wake Up parties hosted by Laurent Garnier, which has become one of the cities most important and established spots for house and techno. Channelling his experiences as a resident at Rex-Club over the past months, S3A has crafted a club-ready EP with nothing but the Rex-Club dance floor in mind.

With a name that stands for ’sampling as an art’, it’s no surprise that S3A has a real knack for digging deep and flipping samples. Our pick off the EP ‘Jun’ is no exception. Kicking off a funky guitar lick and juggling cowbells, ‘Jun’ starts of as smooth as they come. But as new samples are layered every other bar, the sound gets fuller by the second, and by the time the kick’s hit the floor and you can hear the dancers cheering, it’s obvious what an unstoppable groover ‘Jun’ really is. A harmony of funk & house with a magic French touch, ‘Jun’ is a one hell of a feel-good club tune.

Once again, S3A shows us what sampling is all about, taking snippets of history to create a collage of a modern club experience. And although they were created with just one in mind, there’s no doubt that S3A’s latest tunes will work a treat on any dance floor. Not one to miss!
