A Definition Of Garage (2021 Remastered Version)

Epitomising the very best of their hometown's unparalleled musical heritage, Detroit's Dames Brown are the vocal trio becoming one of house's must know names. Lending their exquisite range to a number of modern house essentials, including Sophie Lloyd's 'Calling Out', The Vision featuring Andreya Triana 'Heaven' and David Penn's 'Nobody' in recent years, Athena Johnson, Teresa Marbury and LaRae Starr unveiled 'What Would You Do?' in 2021 to swift critical acclaim. Produced by long-time collaborator of the group and fellow Motor City native Amp Fiddler and Mahogani Music regular Andrés, the slick, funk-filled and typically soulful release has now been remixed by house royalty Louie Vega and Josh Milan to further elevate its club credentials. With the Two Soul Fusion Remix capturing the funk, house and soul of the Dames' sound with fitting tenacity, the accompanying Expansions NYC Dub Vocal goes deeper and groovier for something more club-ready. Powered by a powerful body of house muscle, it's no surprise that this A-List combination of artists has produced a package as special as they come.

The first time I went to Chicago back in 1996 I was doing a story for Muzik magazine about the producers and labels from there that were exciting me at the time (Ron & Chez, Cajmere/Cajual/Relief, Gemini/Guidance...) Chez Damier was my guide for most of my trip and one night he introduced me to The Red Dog and I ended up chatting to an up'n'coming house producer. His take on the genre was one that's always stuck with me. "The thing about house," he said, "is that it's simple, all you need to make it is an s1000 and a good bag of weed."

These days, when even @carlcraig is tweeting "Too many plugins, too little time", the beauty of a simple block-rockin' beat can get forgotten about in a never-ending stream of production complexity. Thank goodness then for Sante Sansone; not a name that everyone will know but if you follow the Traxsource chart, you will have seen his "Rising" hit the top spot recently. His version of house is very much like that young kid from Chicago; great loops and a heavy beat is all you need.

Here are 3 cuts from Sante; "Jammer" (raw, jacking, peak-time Berlin banger), "Erosion" (funky, loopy soulful jam) and "Venice In Love" (swinging disco groove)

Sante Sansone - Venice in Love (Original Mix)

Pixels (Pete Heller Old Skool Remix)

Ossie joins the Madhouse Records roster late November with his ‘Unified’ EP, accompanied by a remix from Soulphiction.

London’s Ossie has been steadily carving out a name for himself over the past few years with an impressive run of releases on Wolf Music, Hyperdub, Exploited, 2020 Vision and somethinksounds. Here though we see him joining the roster of Kerri Chandler’s infamous Madhouse Records, a perfect home for the artist’s Garage-infused twist on contemporary House.

Title-track Unified leads, employing classic house tropes with choppy chords stabs, warm strings, dusty 909 drums and jazzy Rhodes licks all further fuelled by bubbling echoes and vocal murmurs tucked into the depths. Soulphiction’s ‘Classic Mix’ follows next, as the name would suggest the German producer delivers a classic slice of Deep House driven by the originals soft chords and vocals whilst stirring in jazzy organ melodies and robust drums for good measure.

Your Box then closes the package laying focus on bumpy snares, crunchy percussion and a bleepy 8-bit pattern while soulful vocals and lumpy subs carry the hypnotic groove throughout.
