Label - What Came First

'What Came First' is a new label dedicated to House and Techno, which has been set up by the people behind the infamous EGG London club venue.

The new release is from Manu Gonzalez who is a DJ and producer born and raised on the Spanish island of Ibiza, who has become one of the island's top club spinners playing regular DJ sets at venues like Space, Pacha and Privilege.

Also a successful producer Manu has releases on Natural Rhythm, Isgud Records, Cr2 Records, and Hot Since 82’s label Knee Deep In Sound.

Regularly collaborating with Secondcity, Manu's music has also racked up peak time radio support from Annie Mac.

Through his legendary Ibiza DJ sets he caught the attention of the world, coming on top at the 2015 DJ Awards in the 'Ibiza DJ (Vicious Magazine)” category, and most importantly Pete Tong, who recently asked Manu to do a guest mix for his much famed BBC Radio 1 show.

Creating a tapestry of vocal textures, 'Back To 80' has a timeless sound with an evocative lead synth and prominent bassline. With a warehouse vibe and subtle rave influence, it's peak time and tailor made for the club. 

“Like This” focuses on an old-school drum break and MC style vocal samples that have a subtle Hip Hop influence. Smooth pads playing a held chord add tension and add to the tracks reminiscent vibe that fuses retro sounds with modern ideas. Perfect for any party, it fuses underground ideas with big room appeal.

“Last Call” has the rolling groove of looped live percussion, which forms the back bone of the track. Jazz influenced moody pads and quirky melodies blend with muffled vocals whilst the bassline provides the forward momentum. The perfect combination of musical elements, this track is both chic and dancefloor focused with just the right amount of swing.

Our latest release on what Came First has been produced by Italy's newest export, Knowhat, who has delivered two original works blended with shades of uplifting house and tech house rhythms.

The original track 'Feel it' is a high-spirited, house-infused creation with soulful vocals and punchy drums, showcasing the artist's ability to shy away from the driving tech house sound he's usually known for.

'Make My Body Groove' is a sultry, alluring piece with infectious, groove-tinged percussion. Suitable to captivate any dancefloor worth its salt from the beginning to end.

Frankfurt based producer Basti Grub is also featured on the EP, re-working the title track. Having touched it down with a minimal techno bass-line, Grub has artfully kept the male vocal hook rolling throughout the mix.

Egg LDN resident Kyle E delivers another WCF release, 'Wavetable', including a remix from an old friend of the club, Guido Schneider.

'Wavetable' opens the three track EP, a combination of ethereal synths and
undulating baselines form the basis of this melodic production before an unusual hook adds another dimension to the track. An oscillating filter peters in and out, adding a summery feel to this mesmerizing production, instantly taking the track up a notch to an almost spiritual rhythm.

'You Called' is a blend of dreamy synth work and tight drums. With a twist of
melancholia, it's on par for a set of a certain style - think outdoors, beneath the sunshine - with a slow-burning pace that still manages to captivate the listener from the get-go.

Guido's Schneider's remix of 'Wavetable' is also featured on the EP; a solid 90s influenced mix that's suitable to warm up a chilled out dancefloor. A more
upbeat take on Kyle's original mix, it's the perfect finish to a pulsating EP from the London based producer.
