The Solid State Mix Tape Vol 24 - Hard Jeli

Oh my gosh, talk about ending the year on a high. Finishing off 2018 we have a firm favourite release of yesteryear with Dramatik on the remix. This remix is everything we love about him, hooverlicious, playful, energetic and has the essence of those early Tinrib tunes from the 00's. Ace job!

Skittles (Dramatik Remix)

NikDBubble & Filthy Kitten - Skittles (Dramatik remix, January 2019)

Here at Toolbox we love to support raw passionate talent and to give those the opportunity with each release, a chance to shine as being a phenomenal artist. After consideration, it was decided that we should bring back the infamous Toolkit series in 2018- a showcase of handpicked artists who have produced ten monster tracks with a mix of the best engineers in the business.
 
As a genre, Hard House has witnessed some amazing artists step up and emerge these past few years- pushing the production boundaries with unique samples, thundering baselines and a slightly different yet still familiar feel that we have all come to know and love of the music. Upon reflection of past releases, one artist came to mind for the re-launch. With a string of tracks already featured on the Toolbox label, now producing and writing his own material as a solo act plus being omnipresent across the biggest parties in the UK it was an effortless decision to make. We proudly present the Aaron James Toolkit.
 
Aaron has fully cemented himself a respected and established DJ in the music scene, accredited from his vinyl background and energetic sets across super brands such as Xstatic, Frantic and Twist. But as he will confirm, there is nothing like belting out your own productions to a packed dancefloor.
 
The short-lived but mammoth success of the ‘Forbidden Friends’ guise saw some of Toolbox’s most downloaded releases of their year including ‘Apples’ and ‘Blunt Punt’. Vicious Circle also endorsed the duo with ‘Balls Out’ and the remix of Justin Bourne’s ‘Rok Da House’ drew so much attention that it was used on every DJ’s mix and heard out every weekend for months. It is still being smashed to this day.
 
In 2016 it was well overdue for Aaron to break away from that and catapult himself onto a solo path for his own musical development. Passion become an obsession and pretty soon more Toolbox Digital number 1’s were being unleashed like ‘Do What You Like’ and ‘Bitch Kick’ with Matt Mara. Twist Trax ‘Bones’ had huge success globally in Australasia and really catapulted Aaron to the next forefront level.
 
Toolbox 19 covers an expanse spectrum of tracks from traditional handbag house all the way to relentlessness. Like a perfectly balanced dish, this album has all the elements of a Masterchef creation. We have hoovers, we have piano stabs, we have enormous baselines and plenty of elevated vocals to suit. But to name a few to get your tastebuds going from the funkier side we ‘Timewaster’. A real groovy production with plenty of stabs, diva vocals and a very 90’s house feel with breakbeat interludes.  ‘Ya Feel Me’ delivers a thundering baseline track with huge attitude vocals, and twisted synths which was a massive hit in Ibiza for the legendary ‘Xstatic’ brand. And how could we not mention ‘The Urge’ who slaps in your face the biggest baseline you will hear this year complimented by one of the best uses of a unique vocal sample with a deliciously dark edge.
 
We would like to thank everyone in advance for supporting the re-launch of the Toolkit series and of course Toolbox Recordings, the artists and the releases over the years.
 
Much love,
Toolbox Recordings

Aaron James - Toolbox Toolkit 19 Album Sampler

Toolbox is very excited to have Hard House all Star Dawn Lee this month. After a very successful 2018, we predict she will be huge in 2019- this track being no exception. What can only be described as a pounding baseline, this track thunders along nicely with the cheeky use of 90’s diva R&B vocals. A quick turnaround breakdown delivers a strong synthy lead on the kick out with some very desirable key changes and a bit of acid for good measure.

Tricky (Original Mix)

Dawn Lee- Tricky (Feb 2019)

March brings us a full of energy uplifting track with absolute killer vocals. Marky P & Becki Boo have teamed upto deliver a hoover monster cleverly disguised as a vocal track. The hands in the air breakdown fools you into a loving sense of euphoria but just wait for that break drop- it’s a hoover beast.

Monsters (Original Mix)

Marky P & Becki Boo- This Love (Mar 2019)

We welcome to Toolbox another rising star of 2018 Dave Neale, with his TB debut ‘No Show’. Bags of energy, and a gritty driving baseline this tune is not for the fainthearted.  With gated leads and a distinctive bell filler, this eerie track escalates into a no nonsense synthy monster with a big hoover riff  to finish us off.

No Show (Original Mix)

Dave Neale- No Show (Apr 2019)

If anyone could effectively use Bob Marley in a Hard House track it’s these guys. Pushing the production boundaries once more, this energetic uplifting tune with a really punchy baseline makes your hairs stand on end with this future Ibiza anthem. Listen out for the key changes at the end, pure euphoria teamed with Bob’s unmistakeable classic track from the 1970’s.

Make You Wanna Move (Original Mix)

Matt Clarkson & Miric- Make You Wanna Move (May 2019)

Wayne German can do no wrong in our eyes and this belter is no exception! This track takes us on a almost funky techy trip until that baseline drops which smacks you right in the face. The old skool riff takes us that little bit higher with plenty of phaser action before a mammoth hoover lead tops us all of!

Down On Me (Original Mix)

Wayne German- Down On Me (Jun 2019)

Raw Power Artists Promo Mix

This track is exactly what you would expect from this filthy pair! Intense baseline with RBR's trademark stabs. Filthy Kittens influence cuts through like a knife with the old skool vocal used and that kick arse hoover riff after the breakdown. Good work team.

Filthy Kitten & Random But Raw - Like Me (July 2019)

Hard House welcomes back Hayz after a break from the music scene with this corker of a remix of a Toolbox classic. The synth riff makes a great edition from the original whilst keeping it uplifting and energetic. We look forward to many more of Hayz's productions.

Candi Overload (Hayz Remix)

Munkjack - Candi Overload Hayz Remix (Jan 2020)

What a start for 2020, Wayne German at his best again! Driving baselines with a a few subtle key changes and good use of cheeky vox stabs.  Good to hear an original jazz hands style vocal for the breakdown too which is used before releasing an absolute hoover beast riff. 10/10!

Overtime (Original Mix)

Wayne German- Overtime (Nov 2019)

After a year in the making, we can finally present to you Toolkit 20. Following the success of last years release we had to really pull out all the production stops to bring you a cutting edge album by an unmistakably talented artist.

Our next offering is from a DJ & Producer who has graced our scene for over a decade. Not only does he run the Encoded label and their events, he is also Co-Label Manager for the mighty Frantic Digital. With a string of residences under his belt to his accolade, this artist continues to produce monster track after monster track and creating future hard house anthems. Let’s get excited, we present to you the Wayne Smart Toolkit.
 
Wayne Smart is a household name within our heavyweight scene who originally stems from a vinyl background but has never compromised his music style. This is clearly demonstrated when he plays his back catalogue vinyl rips just too good to be kept in a record bag, in this now digital world. Renowned for having lots of energy whilst keeping the fun, Wayne has been able to incorporate his set sound into his productions. Many of these can be found on his Soundcloud page where his LIVE sets from the infamous Tidy Weekenders have had over 10’000 hits. 2019 sadly sees Wayne’s retirement from DJing but to our delight he is hosting a huge retirement gig in London in October featuring many of the scenes much loved DJ’s and artists who have been influential in his music career to date. Fortunately for us, he is nowhere near hanging up the studio headphones.
 
His first major success was a collaboration that turned heads with Phat Beats & Defective Audio ‘Death Warrant’ which still appears in DJ’s wallets today as a firm favourite. Showing his diversity he has a huge range of music from funky hard house to driving hard trance under his many aliases which include DDT and the Pandemics. The past 5 years have seen many of his official remixes and original tracks on top shelf labels like Vicious Circle, Toolbox and Deprivation that have been featured on album after album including the huge ‘Girls Like It Hard’ Mixed By Lucy Fur & Cally Gage. ‘Frantic’ on Frantic Digital was a game changer, as was ‘I Bass’ on Deprivation and ‘Bad To The Bone’ with Mike Taylor also featured on ‘Frantic Digital’. Wayne was lucky enough to tour Australia and New Zealand in 2016 showcasing many of his productions to his global fan base. He has also been fortunate enough to have worked with some of the most influential producers in the scene including BK, James Nardi, Dave Owens and Dom Sweeten, and this album is no different.
 
Toolkit 20 runs from red to purple like a rainbow of sound to cover every aspect of dance music. Heavy baselines, plenty of hoovers, old-skool stabs and uplifting vocals will catapult your ears through journey after journey on this album. Demonstrated on tracks like 'What's Your Problem' and 'Your Love'. Both old-skool feel masterful creations that take you back to 1999 with all the baseline heaviness of 2019. The insane baseline groove that is 'Changes', complimented with that hoover lead and huge diva vocals. And not for the fainthearted you have 'Get Here Now' with that circa 2000 Nu NRG feel involving plenty of grit and a hoover riff to drool over. 
 
Thank you again for supporting the Toolkit series, of course our heart Toolbox Recordings and the long awaited return of Hammer Heads Digital.
 
Much love,
Toolbox Recordings

Stigmatique - Unstoppable Desire (Hadone Remix) [SEELEN007 | Premiere]

T-Baggers - Saggy

A hooverfest lands on this months release by none other than the very talented Mischief Duo. With a kick arse baseline, plenty of grit and a refreshing original vox this track really is a high energy monster. Oh and did I mention there are loads of hoovers?

Mischief Duo -That's Who (June 2020)

This month features another label debut, and from one of the hardest working ladies in the industry, we present to you Dawn Lee; exhibiting a real beefy number with its off-beat bass line, complimented by gentle plucks that add harmonic elements to an otherwise meaty track. The breakdown is dominated by an array of energetic hoovers that would satisfy the most finicky of Hard House enthusiasts; with all of this leading toward a fantastically sounding pitch-bended build up and a seriously naughty kickback. A great contribution to the label’s growing list of heavy hitters, and we are thrilled to have Dawn as a part of the Hammerheads team.

#challengeaccepted: Alive is a project that aims at raising awareness to the increasing amount of violence that women+ face in different forms in their daily lives. In Turkey, more and more women+ are facing brutal forms of misogyny every day, facing harassment on a daily basis; rapes and femicides are being normalized by the current system and these kinds of violence are becoming a normal state where women feel themselves even more helpless under the law.

Just as many of the human activities, experiencing music is a shared form of action that has a strong cultural interest with the cultural background of the society one belongs to. As an expression and a manifestation, electronic music has a connecting as well as antithetical strength that mostly shade into a form of becoming one. In that regard we band together as artists from Turkey and from all over the world to break the silence. We are inviting everyone to stand in solidarity with women in their struggle.

100% of the collected funds will be donated to Mor Çatı Women’s Shelter Foundation.
