I can't think of a better way to celebrate DIRTYBIRD's 10 year anniversary than by releasing 14 great tracks that I fully support. There’s no fluff in here. Everyone from our amazing talent pool has delivered their A game material. And l have also added a few great new names to the family. 

It’s hard to believe that this little project started in my bedroom in the Lower Haight, San Francisco 10 years ago. I can distinctly remember hand stamping vinyl promos at home with my friend Fernando and trying to figure out the best way to mail them to Europe.  I remember the very first guy to ever call me back about our music was Edgar Dirksen in Frankfurt, Germany, who was working at a now defunct distributor called Neuton.  This was the only place that would agree to sell our records back in 2005 and I still thank him for taking the chance on us. 

There have been many many people involved since the beginning. Special thanks to all who have helped me run the shop at different times such as my wife Aundy, Mike Bosley, Christian Martin, Adam Carter, Sharen Norden, Bryan James,  Luke Williams, Jonathan McDonald, Alastair Duncan and Stacey Gamble. Of course I couldn’t have done it without my good friend and the amazing music producer, Justin Martin, who helped shape our sound and also really define what it means to be part of DIRTYBIRD. 

A lot has happened in the music industry over the last 10 years but I like to think we have stayed consistent and managed to enjoy the ride. The players may change but the theme stays the same; keep it fun and funky. So please enjoy this very special compilation of our music and here’s to another 10 years of DIRTYBIRD!

Much Love,
Claude VonStroke

Premiere: Double Touch - Desire [All Day I Dream]

Emerging as their first release on Manual Music, But U marks a striking introduction to the label's timeless electronic music legacy. Featuring Rana Iravani's smooth, sensual vocals over a warm, mystique-scented sonic landscape, the track channels the spirit of classic deep house with modern flair.

Born in San Francisco and raised in Dubai, Rana's global upbringing and training in drama at NYU infused her artistry with storytelling and emotional depth. As a DJ, producer, singer, and songwriter based in New York, she brings cinematic nuance and musical sophistication to every project.

Little is publicly known yet about Janne Johannes, making this debut all the more intriguing. Together, Janne and Rana deliver a collaboration steeped in mystery, a synergy of subtle vocal phrasing and atmospheric arrangement.

Musically, But U unfurls with catchy piano motifs and string‑shot chords that evoke both vintage emotion and dancefloor energy. It's a track equally suited to deep late‑night club sets as it is to immersive listening at home or on the road. With its lush textures, rhythmic drive, and evocative mood, it stands as a modern house gem that intrigues and captivates.

Listen to But U, the bold debut from Rana Iravani & Janne Johannes on Manual Music, blending soulful vocals, elegant melodies, and timeless deep house allure. A track poised to resonate across dancefloors and headphones alike.

Premiere: Rich Wakley - That's The Joint [Suara]

German duo Hanne & Lore already gained huge success with their debut EP Karma Supra including remix support by Tube & Berger last summer. Heading for the next season, the guys from Herford now impress with their second strike and two new originals from the Whatif EP. The title track sounds progressive and funky at the same time, Luna Square accentuates a more groovy nature with interesting samples. The rhetorical question is rather superfluous on Whatif, but definitely when. Our quick respond: here we go now!
