"Freshly Squeezed are world-leaders in putting a modern dance spin on vintage records" (Mixmag) - Follow us for more great releases... and do please comment.
______________________________________________

We are so proud to return with the third volume in our ground-breaking WHITE MINK : BLACK COTTON (Electro Swing vs Speakeasy Jazz) series of double albums. It may have taken us a while, but we hope it will have been worth the wait; Vol 3 could well be our best yet!

The first CD launched what was at the time, a new genre in the UK and went on to become an album-charting silver disc, attracting phenomenal critical acclaim and a devoted cult-following. "Electro Swings first landmark moment" said dance-music bible Mixmag prophetically. "Sublimely decadent" said Clash; "Perfect" said The Guardian.


Our launch party in late 2009 inspired a world-wide series of club nights with London's Electro Swing club continuing to this day and our own White Mink nights hosting numerous large-scale stages annually with artists of the calibre of Caravan Palace and Parov Stelar joining us across the UK from Glastonbury to Bestival, Latitude to Larmer Tree, Edinburgh to Brighton. Just have a look at these: http://www.flickr.com/photos/whitemink/

WHITE MINK vol 3 picks up where we left off and includes another of label boss NICK HOLLYWOOD's impeccably put-together selections. From the down-tempo (and exclusive) opener of KID KASINO's Mink Schmink via more exclusives from SWING REPUBLIC and SQUIRREL NUT ZIPPERS to the more funky-house beats of a lost masterpiece by AARON UND PASCAL... this is quite simply 100% quality. The gold standard.

As before CD 2 - The BLACK COTTON side - is given over to vintage sounds and has it's own minimix on here too.... The album is available in beautifully packaged double CD digipack from all good record shops including Amazon and of course to download EVERYWHERE...

For the 'Dutty Up North EP' In:flux Audio presents two of the most exciting rising talents of the bass music scene in the form of Mr C and Dr. Oscillator.

Mr C shows off his versatility as a producer on this EP, with the Bass House sexiness of 'Nicoles Groove', the Garage vibes of 'Gassed' and the Bassline nastiness of 'At Night'.

These three tunes are backed up by the awesome Garage anthem 'The Heist' from Dr. Oscillator and the dischordant Bassline banger 'Scuffa Kid' from In:flux's own Tik & Smuggla.

This EP will be available to purchase from Juno Download on 27th October 2014, and Bandcamp on 10th November 2014.

Artwork by the very talented folks at Prefix Studios Ltd.

Next up for 2014, a REEL PEOPLE MUSIC classic reworked by one of our favourite soulful producers, OPOLOPO.

The incredible soulful vocal force that is CHOKLATE joined forces with REEL PEOPLE MUSIC back in 2010, unleashing the monstrous single THE TEA. 

Originally remixed by REEL PEOPLE, THE LAYABOUTS & MANOO, THE TEA now gets a special rework by SWEDEN’s Mr. Funky himself, OPOLOPO.

"Reggae-hip-hop partner of DJ Maars and longtime hip-hop producer in his own right, Tom Showtime, comes correct at the close of the year with this original boom-bap hip-hop cut. You all know the recipe: a fat break, a sample from a sixties or seventies groove (in this case The Round Robin Monopoly’s sinuous and wah-wah drenched Life Is Funky) and someone to drop dope verbals. That’ll be D’Fro then – and you know you can always rely on a man named after his hairstyle. Life sure is funky, ain’t it?"

Py
Vocalist secured prestigious PRS Momentum funding alongside hotly-tipped UK talent Lapsley and Years & Years

London-based vocalist Py releases her long-awaited next EP ‘Ghostdance’ on 30th March via her brand-new label, Tilehouse.

Recorded at Red Bull studios in Paris, ‘Ghostdance’ is a game-changer for Py; an EP focused solely on a voice that finally trusts what it has to say. Despite collaborating with a who’s who of contemporary producers in a short but successful career, it’s Py’s own perfectly crafted sound that remains at the fore of a mature and accomplished four-track EP.

Title-track ‘Ghostdance’ is rich with sultry sass, a throwback sound that transports you into sweaty, dance-fuelled times gone by, not sounding out of place blasting from the depths of Radio 1, whilst ‘Sealion’ inspires with its fluttering and raw multifaceted class.

‘Fresh Sheets’ flips proceedings into dark, smokey territory, packing one almighty emotional punch before ‘Glummywood’ rounds off the EP with a nod to old-school Py; twisted, and glitchy but pieced expertly together with the most distinctive of honey-coated tones.

A long-time collaborator of Ross Tones (Throwing Snow) who also produced the EP, Py recently featured on his critically-acclaimed debut album ‘Mosaic’ released via Houndstooth, as well as pairing up with US duo Odesza on recent single ‘Echoes’. Previously supported by Huw Stephens and Zane Lowe at Radio 1 who made recent single ‘Polyethers’ his prestigious ‘Next Hype’, Py is here to stay: and it’ll be all on her own terms.

A week from now Mungo’s Hi-Fi return with the new long-player You See Me Star featuring the yung Charlie P. Released on their own Scotch Bonnet it’s a blast of fresh roots reggae, dancehall and modern bass music from the soundsystem culture’s finest Scottishmen.

To give you a glimpse into the sound, we’re streaming the fourth track on the album – “Society” – where Charlie P, who started his musical journey at the age of 5, is laying it down with a Jamaican accent.

Don’t be underestimating the white man with a passion for good ganja and reggae dancehall – Charlie P’s talent and dedication are undeniable.
