Been waiting for this one for a while now! What a beautiful track.

On the flip of the Keep on Swindling pt. 3 EP you’ll find a special song from the Dam Swindle catalog: ‘The wrap around’. When released on Huxley’s now defunct ‘Saints & Sonnets’ label back in 2013, the release made its way into many record bags and sold out quickly, never to be repressed again. Discogs prices went through the roof, while the title track became one of the biggest tracks for Dam Swindle in their early years. Now, it will be available on vinyl and digital again through Heist. It's had a few touch-ups in arrangement and mixing for the 2022 mix, but the boys worked hard to maintain the rough edges that made the original loved by so many fans.

Following on from the Nyte Manoeuvres LP released in 2019, Soulfuledge’s Nyte Music imprint kicks of 2023 with ‘Down in Flames’, a heady & vibrant slice of sumptuous late-night soulful music.

We couldn’t be more stoked to welcome the stunning talent that is Kerrie Masters to the label with her & Soulfuledge’s debut release. With an impressive resume already in tow, Kerrie’s musical background is most definitely the real deal, self-releasing a collection of heartfelt soulful EPs & performing at notable venues across the UK; Kerrie’s rise in the music scene is moving at pace!

‘Down In Flames’ is brimming with rich Rhodes, sweeping percussive undertones & a nibbly, infectious analogue bassline, it’s a real late-night moment which perfectly showcases Kerrie’s vocal abilities. Finding that balance between powerful, emotive & soulful is no easy thing yet her transitions across all facets of the track are as effortless as they are striking.

Atjazz : This song is gooooorjus!
DJ Spen : Man!! This song is a beast
Richard Earnshaw : What a soulful slice of loveliness
Yam Who? : Oh wow! This is proper!
Natasha Kitty Katt : Absolutely love it, amazing work! You have the Katt’s support!
Tom Davidson (Chillifunk) : Sounds wicked, great vocals & super nice soulful vibe
Paul Phillips (Solar Radio) : Really like the track, great vocal and overall production, playing on the show
Michael Fossati (Spirit of House) : A truly glamorous slice of timeless soulful bliss

We’re super excited to present this third slice of exclusive and brand new music from friends and family of the label. We hope you love these big orange slabs of vinyl as much as we do.
Volume 3 takes another deep dive into the diverse range of styles that we love here at SB. Ranging from disco and soul tinged house, to ambient and deep house goodness to raunchy acid and techy stompers. Everything you would expect to hear at any one of our parties.
As always a huge thank you to all the incredible artists who’ve contributed to this edition. These wouldn’t happen without you…
Now grab your mates, stick these tunes on loud, and DANCE!

SoCal veteran DJ/Producer/Promoter Nonfiction debuts on GLA Recordings with his On the Subway project! His OG Hip Hop roots shine through on this gritty, funky and soulful trip into the mind of one the most originals voices the OC underground has ever produced. As a shining beacon to all top house DJs for nearly 2 decades, his Focus OC night alongside partner Josh Billings has exposed his ears and his audience to the best the scene has to offer. This 2 track offering is another chapter in his musical trip. Nonfiction started his dj career as a mobile hip hop dj back in 1997 when he moved from Los Angeles to Orange County. Devoted 5 of his years to learning the essentials (beat matching, phrasing scratching/turntablism), playing local house parties and clubs. As time went by he felt the itch to be more of a performer than a "human jukebox." Having had a close connection with house music and techno since the early 90's...the transition from hip hop to house was a natural one for him. From 1998-2003 Nonfiction played at several raves and local club nights, putting on his own events as well. It is here that he dove in head first and became immersed in the scene, playing tech/Chicago house and continued fine tuning his skills behind the decks. In 2004 Nonfiction was added to to Focus roster and has been a resident ever since. Sharing the decks with such heavyweights as Mark Farina, Derrick Carter, Doc Martin, Miguel Migs, Ian Pooley DJ Heather, Diz, Kaskade, Gene Farris and of course his very talented fellow residents (Wobs and Josh Billings). It is here that Nonfiction has truly grown as a dj and an artist. "I'm really happy to do my part and to be involved in the house scene (especially in OC). We've been working really hard for nearly 20 years to make it happen and it keeps getting better, and better. I stay true to my friends and family, work hard and Focus on playing NEW music--it's important to keep pushing the boundaries, but at the same time keeping the vibe dance floor friendly".

Math N Jazz takes us on a journey into the deep mysteries of music over a deep, melodic flow of keys grounded by a tight, shuffling layer of beats. There is a feeling of never-ending warehouse jams, sun drenched parties on the pier, and smiling faces on packed dance floors flowing through these tracks as well as a taste of Chicago. But make no mistake, this sound is rooted in decades of a flourishing and ecstatic SoCal house scene.

Great Lakes Audio Recordings is the brainchild of label head honcho Mark Farina, creator of Mushroom Jazz and legendary House Music DJ. Since his days at Gramaphone Records in Chicago in the 90s, Mark has always been a creative trailblazer in his approach and musical execution. Whether it was making handmade mixtapes featuring his artwork or mixing genres to eventually come up with his signature Mushroom Jazz sound, Mark has built his career on presenting a very personal vision of what a DJ can be. 
Great Lakes Audio Recordings is an extension of that drive to bring only the best in underground music to DJ’s and the masses alike. The label’s focus is squarely on promoting the work of producers from around the world that share that funky, groovy, soulful, and Chicago influenced sound fans have come to expect from Mark.  The Farina sound will be represented to the fullest on Great Lakes Audio Recordings with Mark curating every release from the music to the artwork.  Label Manager Jerry Walker (AKA J-Dub) has partnered and toured with Farina over the last 2 decades and has joined him to help create this new space for producers, visual artists, and fans to join together to share their love of House. Drawing inspiration from the history of the DIY culture that built this now global scene, Great Lakes Audio Recordings will be firmly rooted in the spirit of the loft parties, warehouse raves, and indie record stores that gave birth to this musical movement.
The label plans to continue to work with artists from it’s previous incarnation (GLA) such as Demuir, Kid Enigma, Ed Nine, Jazzman Wax , Iban Montoro, Riki Inocente, Ed The Spread and DJ Sneak while also promoting the work of new label artists like Javi Bora, Andres Boned, and Todd Omotani.  We’ll also be bringing new merchandise to market featuring our amazing new logo and artwork from releases and events. Our social media presence will be strong and constantly updated with fresh content found on our new Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Soundcloud, and YouTube pages.  Ed Nine & Kid Enigma, Iban Montoro & Jazzman Wax, Matt & Ricky, and JT Donaldson kick started the label beginning in 2018 gearing up steadily into 2019. Future releases include releases from Bonetti & Alek Soltirov, Iz, Kid Enigma, Chris Nazuka, and the man himself, Mark Farina. Stay tuned for more mixes from our red hot GLA Recordings Artist Sessions as well!
