FUNKY TRANSPORT VS JONEE Q
SHAKE IT *DERRICK CARTER* (FARRIS WHEEL) 12  - 105294
SYNTAX EXCLUSIVE! Funky Transport have provided the funk for more than a few of house music's top imprints including but not limited to Classic, 20:20 Vision, Playhouse, Lowdown, Brique Rouge and Flat & Round to name a few. Here they team up with Jonee Q and unleash some deep underground funk. "Shake It" features jacking dirty rotten beats with Jonee Q providing the spacey vocal over some trippy melodies, filthy bass and analog funk. On top of this killer mix we're treated to a mix by the one and only Derrick Carter. Derrick's mix injects even more funked up jacking action in the beats, toughening them up while adding that patent fucked up feel to Jonee Q's vocals. HUGE!(FWR017)HOUSE- 7/09/07-FR

TANNER ROSS & KILOWATT
HEAVYWEIGHT EP (DIRTYBIRD) 12  - 105304
This release has been 100% battle tested on the road by both Claude VonStroke and Justin Martin. Both of these cuts just rocked this year’s Detroit Electronic Music Festival to capacity crowds! Tanner Ross and KiloWatts come to us from Boston with their jam 'Kruger Fingers' sounding like a cross between Matthew Dear and Honey Dijon. Rolling funky bass lines with a wicked popping techno synth make this tune able to stand out in both house AND techno sets. The flipside 'Data Rape' is the track for the job when you just need to hammer the crowd. Sounding like Plastikman gone to another level, this collab with The Rejekts blends funk with insane rolling percussion.(DB012)TECH HOUSE- 7/09/07-GE

CHROMEO
TENDERONI *DE CRECY* (TURBO) 12  - 105460
Chromeo opens up a can of funky whup-ass on your unsuspecting hides with the release of 'Tenderoni', a tune which by far has one of the funniest, funkiest vocal deliveries your likely to have encountered all year! Remixers Proxy and Etienne De Crecy then take turns elevating the original's throwback Minneapolis funk vibe into a screaming electro-rave monster.(TURBO040)ELECTRO HOUSE- 7/09/07-GE

QUENTIN HARRIS FT C MCCLARY
U DONT KNOW (STRICTLY RHYTHM) 12  - 105303
Quentin Harris teams up with vocalist Cordell McClary once again and unleashes a beauty of a track with sparse, deep and soulful beats with Cordell providing an inspirational vocal performance that is reminiscent of a chain gang / slave chant. Simply breathtaking. The "Big Room" mix has a dope Murk vibe and also included on this package is a Danny Howells re-edit of "House". Awesome package.(SR12633)HOUSE- 7/09/07-UK

JESSE ROSE & OLIVER $
WAKE UP *JESSE ROSE RMX* (MADE TO PLAY) 12  - 105378
Jesse Rose & Oliver $ have teamed up for a darker than usual house music thang. Wake Up has a big sound to it. Not big as in big progressive house, but more on the subtle sounds of a big warehouse tune from 97. This one is sure to move you. Dark bassline but steady percussive rhythms with nice FX work on a sound that follows you around the whole track. Solid stuff here, but then again it's on Made To Play... so you knew it was solid already!(MTP008)HOUSE- 7/09/07-GE

TROYDON
SHORT CIRCUIT *DECOSTA/J HEATH (PHONOSHUFF) 12  - 104723
After a monstrous debut, Phonoshuffle returns strong with another fine offering from head honcho Troydon. "I'm With Ya" kicks things off in fine fashion with grinding beats, quirky samples, and the bassline from Curtis Mayfield's "If There's A Hell Below". Very Switch styled! Joshua Heath reworks this on the flip giving it a deeper more Inland Knights feel with a fat new live sounding bassline, warm stabs and clever use of some of the original melody. Troydon teams up with Decosta for "New York Minute", another sweet Drop Music flavored house gem with slick jazzy keys, warm chords and bouncy bassline. Troydon is on fire(PSHUF102)HOUSE- 7/02/07-BE

LINDSTROM
BREAKFAST IN HEAVEN (FEEDELITY) 12  - 105291
Lindstrom returns with some wicked Moroder-esque italo goodies. "Breakfast In Heaven" is a delicious electronic disco treat with heavenly synth arpeggios, futuristic melodies and pushing, funky beats. On the flip is the darker, dirtier and more dancefloor aggressive "Blast Of Loser" with a rugged synth riff that snakes its way around funky percussion, sparse effects and plodding beats.(FEED010)DISCO- 7/09/07-FR

LEE MORTIMER
MUSH *DUCKENFIELD* (ODORI) 12  - 105415
Mr Mortimer visits Chris Duckenfield's Odori imprint, bringing with him plenty of squelched-out electronic house funk in the form of 'Mush'. The original is all about the brash, resonating bassline that slams itself in your face from the get-go and subsequently gets filtered, tweaked and pitch-bent all to hell. The remix comes from Duckenfield, an 808 bottom feeder of a tune that will give your subwoofers a serious run for their money. Better check the warranty on those bad boys.(ODORI038)TECH HOUSE- 7/09/07-UK

RIVER OCEAN
LOVE AND HAPPINESS *MAW* (STRICTLY RHYTHM) DP  - 105128
'Anthem' and 'Classic' are terms tossed about like so much confetti, but just once in a while the record in question deserves such an epithet.  And River Ocean's 'Love and Happines' is unarguably such a record.  A masterpiece both vocally and musically, 'Love & Happiness' was originally released in 1994, just as producers Masters At Work became the Number 1 house production act in the world and a little before India became a hugely successful Latino singing sensation.  That it never became a crossover record - the complex Latin rhythms and sophisticated hooks were too rich for the pop charts, endeared it all the more to the house nation underground. Now MAW tackle the tricky task of remixing the opus, the first time 'Love & Happiness' has ever been remixed.  And they get it going on both ways, turning out one retweaked for '07 version and another totally revamped modernist rub that takes  in shades of Mr V and Ame.  A true classic, then and now.(SR12636DJ)HOUSE- 7/09/07-UK

INNERSPHERE AKA SHINEDOE
PHUNK *VILLALOBOS/BROOM* (INTACTO) 12  - 105299
In our ears Ricardo Villalobos can do no wrong lately, providing some intense remixes of the likes of Depeche Mode, Beck and Shackleton to name a few. Here Ricardo has a go at Innersphere's "Phunk" transforming the tune into a deep and beautiful hypnotic journey of epic proportions. ON the flip Mark Broom spices things up nicely with a retro techno rub with old school synth stab riffs, minimal beats and deep trippy sound design.(INTAC010)MINIMAL TECHNO- 7/09/07-BE

I CUBE
LES ARCHIVES CUBISTES VOL 1 (VERSATILE) 12  - 105380
2 previously unreleased tracks from the archives of I:Cube. Both are from 1999 when his take on house music was really catching on. Very pretty and full, with dirty basslines, and very detroit influenced. Hopefully they keep on with the unreleased stuff from him, as he's always been one of our favorites.(VER052)HOUSE- 7/09/07-GE

ROCCO
CLUB CULTURE *3 CHANNELS* (FREERANGE) 12  - 105411
Rocco is back to make his debut on Freerange, delivering the tunes 'Stormy' and 'The Revolution' plus a wicked 3 Channels remix of 'Stormy' that will thrill fans of the more minimal German electronic house sound. Anyone following the direction that Ben Watt's Buzzin Fly imprint has been taking recently will be very into this bad boy.(FR093)MINIMAL HOUSE- 7/09/07-UK

OLAV BASOSKI
PUSH ME (ROOTZ) 12  - 105429
The follow up to the club stomper 'Da Beat Kicks' looks set o to blow up even bigger, as Olav comes wtih another unbeatable combination of fat club-friendly beats and funky house basslines. Both the original and aa-side remix bring out those huge 4/4 beats the he does so well!(RTZ026)HOUSE- 7/09/07-NL

MATTHIAS HEILBRONN
THE JUNGLE DUB (POKER FLAT WHITE) 12  - 105253
Matty Heilbronn is onto something here! Both sides of this instant classic are absolutely wicked! the A-side of this is a classic example of party rockin house music! All of it takes influence from an old chicago tune I think youll all be able to recognize. The flip gets even more bouncey with a dub version that takes influence from Computer Madness.(PFRWHITE02)HOUSE- 7/02/07-GE

UFFIE
FIRST LOVE / BRAND NEW CAR (ED BANGERS) 12  - 104570
Uffie returns to display that she's got more skills than an 80's pop star like Tiffany or Debbie Gibson. Actually if you took either one of those 80's icons and injected them with crack and a healthy dose of French Nu Rave (thanks to production by Mr Oizo) you have an idea of what "First Love" feels like. "Brand New Car" has a more booty / ghetto feel with more of that jerky, abrasive and quite catchy nu rave production quality.(ED018)PUNK/FUNK/DISCO- 7/02/07-FR

MASTERS AT WORK
WORK *MILK & SUGAR/RIFF & RAY* (KONTOR) 12  - 105436
Brilliant new GERMAN-ONLY mixes of MAW's new single 'Work' brought to you by Riff & Rays and Milk & Sugar, with the original mix included on the flip as a bonus. Riff & Ray's version is a driving electro house re-work using the full female vocal and sample shouts from the original, tuned up to perfection over squelchy synth riffs and grungy electro-house basslines. Milk & Sugar's mix takes a more chunky, tribal approach with its slick drum grooves, rolling piano chords and re-worked vocals adding a sultry, sensual vibe that's perfect for those sweaty 3am house sessions.(KONTOR620)HOUSE- 7/09/07-GE

BOOTY PIMPS
PIMPS CASH & JESUS (PIMPS) 12  - 105441
The Bootie Pimps {or is the Boogie Pimps} get their grubby club house paws on Johnny Cash's remake of Depeche Mode 'Personal Jesus', turning it into a full-on electro/club burner that is already storming the European floors this summer. You can't beat a genuine Johnny Cash vocal performance, especially covering this Depeche classic combined with the Pimps' floor-rocking know-how. Hot.(PIMPS05)ELECTRO HOUSE- 7/09/07-GE

FUTURE LOOP FOUNDATION
THE SEA AND THE SKY *BEEDLE* (LOUISIANA) 12  - 105465
Ashley Beedle and The Emperor Machine get up to no good on their remixes for Future Loop Foundation's "The Sea And The Sky". Ashley drops the epic Ame styled funk, deep and hypnotic as ever along the lines of Ame's remix of Akabu's "Future Bound". Emperor Machine get all Chicken Lips out on their mix. TIGHT!(TAT004V)HOUSE- 7/09/07-UK

BODDHI SATVA
BRIAS OFFERING (YORUBA) 10  - 101326
Bria´s Offering was the introductory track on the Osunlade the Osunlade disc of the "Soul Heaven Presents: Osunlade & Spen" and was one of the most talked about songs from the WMC of last year. Add to that his collaborations with Alton Miller as well as working with Afefe Iku for his upcoming album Boddhi will be one of the names to look out for in 2007. In true Yoruba style deepness "Bria´s Offering" delivers an invitation to the dancefloor. It´s syncopated rhythms, dubbed out voices, deep keys and smooth guitar work give this one unique vibe that will have the dancers dancing, and everyone else bopping their head to the beat. The Roots mix brings similar elements of the original, but it kicks up the percussion, giving it a more Afro house feel. With congas in full effect, this one will raise the spirituality bar up a notch. This is balanced perfectly with even funkier guitar playing original. lready picking up support from the likes of Laurent Garnier, Dj Deep, Kerri Chandler and Larry Heard.(YS03)HOUSE- 7/09/07-UK

JUNIOR JACK
LIFE / ROCKTRON (PIAS) 12  - 105172
Junior Jack has the knack for hit productions and here drops another suck. "Rocktron" features a heavy handed rock influenced guitar hook that leads into a typically hand raising epic production with fat bass, entrancing pads and big, big room beats. "Life" on the flip is a stark contrast to the A, having a Daft Punk vibe with vocoded vocal part, falling synth riffs that lock you in, raise your hands and shake your ass.(9410207130)HOUSE- 7/02/07-BE

IN FLAGRANTI
NONPLUSULTRA *BLACK DEVIL* (CODEK) 12  - 105290
After the well received limited remixes of "Nonplusultra" from Sex Schon, Codek return with another uppercut this time courtesy of the one and only Bernard Fèvre aka Rephlex's Black Devil. HOLY CRAP the Devil rocks the spot on his mix, a futuristic electro / italo disco treat essential for fans of his previous output.(CRE014)ELECTRO DISCO- 7/09/07-FR

SIMON VINCENZI
BURN ME UP (A SECOND SMELL) 12  - 105296
Aroma's sub label returns with the follow up to Vernon & DaCosta's "Super Jam", a debut by Melbourne's newest bad ass, Simon Vincenzi.  "Burn Me Up" has been getting early support from the Lawnchair Generals and has a wicked Jesse Rose meets the ghost of Derrick Carter vibe, with jacking beats, a nice fidgety touch of vocal action and some clever vocal sampling. On the flip you'll find two more bumping house jams for the Troydon, Swirl People, Inland Knight fans in the house.(ASS002)HOUSE- 7/09/07-BE

PIKAYA
KAMBRIUM (CADENZA) 12  - 105369
Super deep minimal tech house stuff here from Pikaya. You might recall the split 12" from last summer in which Pikaya and Andomat 3000 each had a side. Hypnotic and shuffly and perfect for the late hours. Another solid groover for Luciano's Cadenza label.(CADENZA17)HOUSE- 7/09/07-GE

KENNY HAWKES & DAVID PARR
GEMINI *MR G/T TOBIAS* (REKIDS) 12  - 105418
Hawkes and Parr have a penchant for producing twisted, f**ked-up house and so make a perfect fit for Radio Slave's Rekids imprint. 'Gemini' is a dirty, dark electronic house throwdown that is definitely the sound of 'now'. Remixes come from Mr G and Toby Tobias, making this as fully rounded a package as you'd imagine.(REKIDS015)ELECTRO HOUSE- 7/09/07-UK

GOODWILL & TOMMY TRASH
ITS A SWEDE THING (HUSTLE BLACK) 12  - 104566
The whole electro house movement is definitely a "Swede Thing" with Axwell, Angello & Prydz leading the pack. Here Goodwill & Tommy Trash provide a rocking electro house goodie of their own.

The lead track 'Double Scotch On The Rocks' sounds like a dead-ringer for a Get Physical track with its tweaky background synth fx, hypnotic bass stabs and crisp electronic percussion making this tune a proper floor wrecka. 'Greedy People' comes with a beefier kick and more sparse of an arrangement. Dubby echoes and quirky keyboard sounds make this one one for the heads. 'Qwerty' brings back the funk, an obsessive electronic house roller with a slight disco edge.(URTR036)TECH HOUSE- 7/09/07-UK

Former Moonboutique label artists Ante Perry and Babylon Robots make their debut on Marc Romboy's Systematic label with this excellent 2 tracker. The a-side 'Der Urknall' is a driving electro-disco track with an old-school lead synth pattern that gets run thru some pretty bizarre processing, flexing out over a low slung electro house groove.

If you're into Antoine Clamaran's gear definitely check out France's newest prodigy, Twill. His debut offering feels a lot like Mr Clamaran's output.

MAGNETIC (BUZZIN FLY) 12  - 105211
Manoo & Francois A make their long awaited return to Ben Watt's fine Buzzin Fly label with two stellar tracks live & direct from the underground French house scene.

Think Ame with a funkier more late nite appeal.(028BUZZ)TECH HOUSE- 7/02/07-UK

MARC SCHNEIDER
BUDDAH CALL / IN DOUBT (WAS NOT WAS) 12  - 105257
Marc Schneider delivers some tech house madness ont his one! Definitely one to get the floor moving. Really cool chord stabs making up the rhythm, as well as some other added FX thingys. The coolest thing is a snare roll that kida rides underneath the whole time, but never really comes to the complete forefront. Nice trick!(WNW014)HOUSE- 7/02/07-GE

AGNES
DUMBLES DEBUTS *RIPPERTON* (RESOPAL RED) 12  - 105305

A few years back, Detroit based Scott Ferguson put out a record called Dump Days that got HUGE attention from DJ Hell who then put the 12" out on his Gigolo imprint. These days, Scott is rather elusive and makes some of the deepest house music out there.

On Sascha Dive's Deep Vibes Recordings.(DVR002)DEEP HOUSE- 7/09/07-GE

HUMANIZATION (YORE) 12  - 105381
Something wicked this way comes for Andy Vaz. Ditching the usual super-textured deep sounds of techno and lightening up a bit towards the house music tip. Definitely something to check out, as this one is an unexpected suprise!(YRE004)HOUSE- 7/09/07-GE

METAMATICS
PERSONAL JESUS (HYDROGEN DUKEBOX) 12  - 105425
Metamatics present their take on Depeche Mode's seminal 'Personal Jesus', with a heavily-modified and re-sung vocal that sounds almost nothing like the original {and thats a good thing}, adding tricked out techy percussion and sounds to the mix.(DUKE146DJV)TECH HOUSE- 7/09/07-UK

SUPER MAL LUCIANA
BIGGER THAN BIG *MICKY SLIM* (UNIVERSAL) 12  - 105439
Universal thought this track was definitely "Bigger Than Big", so they picked it up from indie Frenchie imprint Bandit and enlisted man of the moment Micky Slim to do his thing on the track.

CEERYL
COSMOPOLITAN *DJ FIST* (SWITCH ON) 12  - 105444

MARTINEZ
RECONNECTED 2 (RECONNECTED) 12  - 105457
Another slamming 2 tracker from Out Of Orbit's Martinez, supported by Loco Dice, Ricardo Villalobos, Zoo Brazil etc. 'Land Crab' works a funky pitch bend/LFO tweak effect over crisp electronic percussion and thick droning basslines. On the aa-side 'Angvalt' is a tension-builder of a track with more disturbed sounds and freaky noises like the a-side.(RE002)MINIMAL HOUSE- 7/09/07-GE

D CLASSICS
V/A *MOON VEHICLE/SAUTERELLES* (D CLASSICS) 12  - 105106
More obscure twisted edits from the D Classics camp. On the a you'll find the highly sought after and way hard to find electro rock / kraut version of Chicago house pioneer Juan Atkins "Cosmic Car". This cover version from the mid 80's is one of those secret squirrel tracks that never quite crossed over but always rocks the spot.

UMEK
PRINT THIS STORY (MANUAL) 12  - 105261
Umek is normally known for his harder techno productions. For years, this guy has been tearing it up making some of the best ever! This is a slight departure from that with deeper lush grooves that sort of has that whole neo-trance feel to it, but what it more comes down to is melodic techno. Certainly a good crossover for Umek here.(MANUAL010)MINIMAL TECHNO- 7/02/07-GE

PEACE DIVISION
SOFT HEAVY (CROSSTOWN REBELS) 12  - 105162
Clive Henry and Justin Drake swing their mighty Peace Division project into more minimal audio territory here on this Crosstown Rebels release. They deliver 3 dubbed out minimal groovers here that are already making waves from Bristol to Berlin. 'Pulses' oozes Basic Channel sensibilities with dubby echoes, occasional vocal snippets and crisp electronic grooves that while minimal leave no doubt that this is a Peace Division track! 'Voodoo' and 'No Junk No Soul' keep the smoked-out, micro house vibe well in there, each clocking in at over 7 minutes of pure dubbed-out power.(CRM038)TECH HOUSE- 7/02/07-UK

FUNKY CHOCOLATE PR YASS
I GO DEEP (GREI MATTER) 12  - 104258

DANTON EEPROM
THESE EYES / STRICTLY EROTIC (FONDATION) 12  - 105137
It's always a milestone in an artist's career to launch his own stable. With fans and supporters such as Laurent Garnier,  Carl Craig, Ivan Smagghe, Damian Lazarus, Ewan Pearson, Agoria and Radio Slave, it's safe to say that Danton Eeprom is definitely one to look out for this year. Having had a string of wonderfully deep and intricate releases on some of the finest underground labels in Europe, Danton felt the time was right to mix his own brew and launch Fondation Records. There’s no big statement attached here, Fondation will be a simple DJ orientated vinyl label for his own output and artists that inspire him. 'These Eyes ' is a dark, bassy acid house track with a twisted dialogue on top, openly sexy but in a classy, not too obvious way. 'Strictly Erotics' blends playful Chicago-inspired percussion with a thumping, unavoidable jackin groove that melts within a 303 bass line. The climax comes with an overwhelming percussive rhythm that gives the track an unpredictable and yet engaging flavour.(FND001)HOUSE- 7/09/07-BE

HOSH
THEMES RHYTHMS & HARMONICS (DIYNAMIC) 12  - 105373

THE ROBBING & STEALING *DESMET (KOLOR) 12  - 104804
You'll likely recall Tommy Largo from his wicked outing on the Lost My Dog label. Here for the Kolor imprint Tommy gets busy with a track that sounds like Cricco Castelli mixed up with a bit of Spiller and some Da Sunlounge thrown in for good measure. Deep, funky, jazzy, jacking and quite the west coast house number. Remix comes courtesy of Amenti's Olivier Desmet & Oriental Funk Stew who toughen it up a bit adding beefier beats and a more dubbed up funked out vibe.(KR005)HOUSE- 6/18/07-UK

WONDERLAND AVE
AS GOOD AS *T GARCIA/EMJAE* (KINKY VINYL) 12  - 105328
After a change of countries for distribution, the Kinky Vinyl label comes back stronger as ever with its latest release, he unashamedly seedy 'As Good As It Gets' by Wonderland Ave. While the husky male vocal whispers the refrain 'long legs, filthy red lips, I want you wrappedaround my hips', the bassline bounces underneath, with lush synthetic keyboard stabs.(KINK52)HOUSE- 7/09/07-UK

MASTER H & JOYFUL NOISE
SO WHAT (QALOMOTO) 12  - 105329
Beautiful deep houser along the lines of Dennis Ferrer / Dj Fudge with hynotic key grooves backed with jazzier keys soloing over the top of some deep beats, fat bass and warm melodies. Playlisted by Ame & Kerri Chandler.(QMT025)HOUSE- 7/09/07-FR

MUSIK GEWINNT FREUNDE
SOMMERAUFTAKT (MUSIK GEWINNT FREUNDE) 12  - 105359
The Musik Gewintt Freunde label is normally on the sillier side of techno, but not this time around. This one is deep and thick, like Basic Channel doing something a bit housier. This is really great stuff and all the previous ones have been deleted quickly, so grab now before they dont exist anymore.(MGF03)MINIMAL TECHNO- 7/09/07-GE

Wicked new mixes of Lumidee's single 'Crazy' re-tuned and re-freaked for the clubs by none other than Boris Dlugosch, working here under the 'Les Visiteurs' guise. Boris works Lumi's strong vocals into a pumping electro-tinged framework with a grungy driving bassline and ultra-fat beats that have become his trademark. Flip it over to the aa-side for Boris' Dub Mix which lets the electro elements of this tune bubble through even more with just a snippet or two of Lumi's vocal hook added in all the right places.(UNI1735485)ELECTRO HOUSE- 7/09/07-GE

ANTHONY NICHOLSON
ALL OVER / AHH SABU (NEED2SOUL) 12  - 105171
We're always excited when we see a new production from Anthony Nicholson as he nevr disappoints. Here he delivers two pristine tracks starting with "All Over", a warm soulful house journey of meditative xylophone, deep percussion, layers of ass shaking space funk electronica and traces of house, techno and disco fusion. This reminds us a lot of a Ron Trent production. On the flip "Ahh Sabu" has a more afro influence with slick percussive beats, warm chords, gorgeous strings and a perfect little vocal hook.(N2S004)HOUSE- 7/02/07-UK

KUTI SEUN & EGYPT 80
THINK AFRICA (STILL MUSIC) 12  - 105174
Seun Kuti is Fela Anikulapo Kuti's youngest son and the afro funk flows through his veins, evident on both cuts on this wonderful ep.

NU TONE
BACK OF BEYOND *3LP* (HOSPITAL) 3L  - 104281
Since his debut album in 2005, Nu:Tone has been hard at work honing his sound, this album shows the new maturity, depth and vision thats been attained. Featuring collaborations with some amazing musicians the album explores house and techno themes withing the drum & bass framework, has awesome anthenic dancefloor killers and a cohesion often lacking in the long player format. Lead single 'Beliefs' features the vocalsof Pat Fulgoni, 'System' brings back Natalie Williams who vocalised two of the tracks on his debut album, Commix (who release their debut album on Metalheadz later in the year) bring their skills to the 'Take Me Back' collaboration, Logististics and Talc contribute to two tracks each, and Scandinavian senstaion Ernesto rounds off the fine line up. Warm, soulful, edgy and energetic... in short a great album.(NHS122)DRUM & BASS- 6/14/07-UK
