old skool
horns on this solid disco house cut. "Clariphone" opens

crisp
hi-hats and a sublime xylophone hook all making this a stellar late
night
funky houser. Last up is "Play Those Horns", with it's
horn loops joined by

LO / REZ
TOTEM MUSIC/HOUSE-HOUS 12D (183744) USA 5.99
Written and produced by Lo Rez. Lo Rez is the latest offering from
the
Totem Music label, with this new 4-tracker of techno flavors. "Loose
Cannon" chugs along nicely, ably assisted by subtle acid lines,
a rumbling
funky bassline, and quirky analog synths on this techno funker.
"Stalemate"
is another hypnotic funky techno cut, with crisp beats and layers
of effects,
a la Matt Dear. On the flip, "Little And Often" blends
minimal techno with
some house-flavored synths, resulting in a late night tech-house
groover.
Last up is "Polyester Look", combining a swing beat with
a deep funk
bassline, vocoder vocals and great guitar riff on the most house-flavored
cut of the bunch. Well worth checking this one out.
TRACKS: Loose
Cannon/ Stalemate/ Little And Often/ Polyester Look.

SHPONGLE
TWISTED/PROG-TRANC 12I (184907) UK 8.99
HUGE SASHA TRACK JUST IN TIME FOR MIAMI!! The feedback on this
tune has been crazy and our phones have been going crazy for it.
Originally
an edit that was done to play in lo-step's live dj set, this very
well might be
the biggest track of the summer! This has become a highly sought
after
classic from Ibiza and has had all the big jocks sweating it. Simon
Posford’s
(aka Shpongle) infinite skills is completed on the flipslide with
as advance
preview track, ’Besia Flor’ from the forthcoming album.
Shpongle has a
unique take on things, a slant of his own. His production skills
and
programming are bordering on genius!
Tracks: Dorset Reception (Low
Steps Balearic Breaks re-edit)/ Beija Flor.

STEALTH/HOUSE-HOUS 12I (184401) UK 8.99
About time that Roger Sanchez put his name on a record again we
say and
here is that tune right here.This one see's him teaming up DJ Oliver
for a
chugging percussive groover that is laced with a flamenco hook and
a
vocal.B side mix strips down the original and adds more of a tribal
vibe to it
and there is a beats only mix as an added DJ tool.

Eddie Amador here doing the tracky thing with a mix on htis new
vocoder
based tune from Molachaco out of Spain.Cool stuff with a very late
night
sleazy sort of feel to it as well as adding a heavy dose of funk.Original
mix
is a little more sparse and comes across like it could be that handiwork
of
one of those Kismet dudes.

ANOMA
HARLEM/PROG-PROG 12I (184740) UK 8.99
Snell and Swain with a big room bonanza on this new one on Harlem.I
gues
the best thing to describe this one as is one of those large druggy
floofillers
with a massive foghorn sound leading the track into various degree's
of
heat with the help of some spaced out vocals samples and old school
tracky drums.There are three mixes with the original being the peak
time
pounder,the dub being a little trancier and the Corbett and Trioa
mix going
for the big NY tribal sound.
Mixes;Original Mix/ Dub Mix/ Corbett & Trioa
Mix.

JUAN DIAZ
WEEKEND/HOUSE-TRIB 12I (184965) SPN 8.99
Laid back smooth tribal gear from Weekend,who hit the G Spot here

very
organic sounding drums.

LA FACTORIA/HOUSE-TRIB 12I (184966) SPN 8.99
Bubbly double A side here with that unique Spanish vibe to it.A
side mix
has some very NY sounding soulful vocals riding over a deeper side
to the
Spanish Tribal sound and as for the flip....well that is the handiwork
of Wally
Lopez who rides the funky groove to the max and adds that signature
drum
sound of his to the proceedings.
Mixes:Original Mix/ Wally Lopez Remix.
Need A Dream
AIREY
HARLEM TRACKS/PROG-PROG 12I (184738) UK 8.99
Colin Airey from the Low Pressings stable dropping three primetime
stormers here for Harlem.A side establishes a tribal vibe which
is stripped
down like one of them Africanism tunes,adds a foghorn and a sampled
vocal from an old funk record.B side kicks off with a big slice
of machine
driven funk that ripples along under one of them porno monologs
and finally
La Musiq is a funked up hard disco number.Nice work.
Tracks: Big Time
Hooker/ La Musiq/ People.

LAND BETWEEN GROOVES
WHOOP/PROG-PROG 12I (184546) UK 8.99
Whoop is definitely on a roll at the moment judging by the speed
the last
few records have blown out of here.So what we have here another
top
Electricity
selling prog cut for sure and its sure not to dissappoint.There's
two mixes
with the original mix kicking off with a Slacker styled vibe,before
breaking
down a little crazily and heading into old school trance territory.B-Side
mix
comes from Mike Monday and is a very stripped down rendition of
the
original.
Mixes:Safe Party Mix/ Mike Monday Remix.

VOICES
MAW RECORDS/HOUSE-HOUS 12D (184758) USA 5.99
Written and produced by Masters At Work. Superb vocal house from
the
MAW boys, with this Voices release a very aptly-named project, with
soulful
vocals, both male (think "Love & Happiness") and female
(think "Universal
Love"), dominating this funky peaktime winner, with Masters
At Work
combining some stellar keys, crisp beats, and a thick funk bassline,
setting
the tome perfectly for this anthemic cut. But if you flip this one
over you'll
find the real gem, with the "Jazzy Dub" transforming the
track completely,
striping out the vocal elements save the odd stab here and there,
adding
some ethereal synth chords, new beat structures, and some more superb
keys, all paving the way for a thumping kickdrum and solid bassline
to take
the track off to the late night floor crowds. Essential.
TRACKS: Voices In
My Mind (MAW Mix)/ Voices In My Mind (Chant Beats)/ Voices In My
Mind
(Jazzy Dub).
Voices In My Mind
TONY THOMAS
RIQUE/HOUSE-HOUS 12D (182048) USA 5.99
Written and produced by Tony Thomas. The usually very prolific Tony
Thomas returns after a bit of an absence with this cracking new
one on
Ri'Que Music. First up is "In The Light Of Truth", something
a little deeper
from young Tony this time out, with a dubby funk bassline and echoy
synths
the main players here, along with some chunky peaktime beats and
dubbed
out horn stabs. On the reverse, "Best Funk Forwarded"
opens with some
great Latin-tinged percussion before a pumping bassline groove joins
the
shuffling tribal beats and riffing guitar stab on this funky tribal
house winner.
Great stuff, as you would expect from Tony Thomas.
TRACKS: In The Light
Of Truth/ Best Funk Forwarded.
Best Funk Forwarded EP
LOUIE VEGA
VEGA RECORDS/HOUSE-LAT 12D (184576) USA 5.99
Written and produced by Louie Vega. Louie Vega with another stellar
outing, this time for his own Vega Records imprint. "Mozalounge"
is a
percussive Latin pleaser of Louie's usual high quality, with superb
piano
and organ lines dominating this uptempo Latin gem, joined by solid
rhythms, a grooving bassline, a sultry Latin vocal, and a sublime
Latin
guitar line. Another classic release from Lil Louie Vega.

DJ SNEAK
X MIX/HOUSE-HOUS 12D (184756) USA 5.99
DJ Sneak on this mysterious new release on X-Mix. This "Mista
D"has been
doing the rounds in Europe for a while now, getting much praise,
and it's
not hard to see why. The original mix sees Mista D providing a hip-hop
vocal, which is then broken into a stabbing ingredient on this chunky
house
cut that becomes dominated by it's bumping bassline, shuffling beats,
and
superb stabbing panpipe (?) before some great funky horns stab into
the
mix, with Sneak building up layer after layer of grooviness. The
"DJ Sneak
Vs. Mista D" sees Sneak reworking the bassline a little, while
that panpipe
still is an ever present on this more straight forward mix that
lets the
bassline work it's own magic free of the layers Sneak had on the
original.
Great shuffling funky house for everyone to get down to.
MIXES: Mista D
(Original Mix)/ Mista D (DJ Sneak Vs. Mista D Mix).

JAY-J & CHUCK DIESEL
MULTI TRACKED/HOUSE-HOUS 12D (183965) USA 5.99
Jay-J and Chuck Diesel joining forces for some solid house groove
son
Multi-Tracked. "No Dem Hoes" is a disco-house gem, with
great loops
blending effortlessly with a super funky bassline, thumping kickdrum,
and
tight percussion. On the reverse, "18 ½" is killer
cut uses a typically
naughty booty house sample alongside some great funky West Coast
house vibes, with stellar percussion, great horns, crisp beats,
a rockin'
bassline and the odd disco loop here and there. "She Found
Me" finished
this trio of cuts off in fine style, taking the vibes a little deeper
with a rich
bassline paring up with some subtle guitar stabs, warm chords, and
solid
beats that will keep those late night floor crowds moving.
TRACKS: No
Dem Hoes/ 18 1/2/ She Found Me.
No Dem Hoes EP
KRISTINE W
TOMMY BOY RECORDS/HOUSE-HOUS 12D (184570) USA 5.99
Another single lifted from Kristine W's "Fly Again" full-length
release. 4
mixes of "Save My Soul" here, with pumping commercial
house being the
order of the day, including Junior still milking his old Sound Factory
connections on his mix. Big room action all the way.
TRACKS: Save My
Soul (Original Extended Mix)/ Save My Soul (Gabriel & Dresden
Bootleg
Mix)/ Save My Soul (Junior Sound Factory Mix)/ Save My Soul (Mike
Cruz

GLENN UNDERGROUND
SANCSOUL RECORDS/HOUSE-HOUS 12D (184872) USA 5.99
Written and produced by Glenn Underground. Glenn Underground back,
this time as CVO, on this stellar outing on Sancsoul. "Fly
Away" is a sultry
deep house cut with a sublime vocal from Jessica dominating while
a
combination of deep bassline, tight beats, and some wonderful melodic
chords provide a fitting backdrop. The dub mix takes the track a
little
further, giving it a bit of Latin flavor via some great percussion,
and then
adding a strong piano line to dominate the space left by the stripping
out of
the majority of the vocal. Late night house at it's finest.
TRACKS: Fly Way
(Full Vocal Mix)/ Fly Away (Dub).
Fly Away (CVO)
TOUCHDOWN PRODUCTIONS
ALLUV RECORDINGS/HOUSE-HOUS 12D (184869) USA5.99
Written and produced by Alf Tumble & Dennis Christenten. Alf
Tumble and
Dennis Christenten teaming up for some late night grooves on Alluv.
"Got
Me Flying" revolves around a superb old skool Arp line, while
a deep
bassline, tight beats, and stabbing vocal all chip in. 2 mixes here,
each
perfect for those late night floor movers and shakers - think a
slightly lighter
take on a Charles Webster track.
TRACKS: Got Me Flying (Original)/ Got
Me Flying (Dub).

D FUSE
SYSTEM RECORDS/PROG-PROG 12D (184873) USA 5.99
Upfront whites on this huge new clubber from the current darlings
of the NY
progressive scene, D:Fuse, serving as a taster for their upcoming
"Begin"
full length. "The Other Side" is a cracking slice of progressive
hosue,
opening with the thud of the kickdrum, and soon followed by some
great
percussion elements, a breathy female vocal, crisp beats, and a
superb
bassline, and the reult is a tribal-tinged floor-stormer. Already
flying out the
door in droves, so get them orders in quick!

DEFECTED/HOUSE-HOUS 12I (180543) UK 8.99
Limted release of Defected that showcases 2 tracks from the forthcoming
full length from Sandy Rivera's Kings of Tomorrow."Dreams"
is a tearing
slab of heavy duty club gear with a heavy spooky monolog of a story
providing the vocals and a big Egyptian sounding breakdown added
for a
very major effect.B side "Through" is a more soulful house
cut with vocals
from Haze that deliver the 'kick the bicth out the house" storyline
of the
vocal.
Dreams
PETER RAUHOFER
STAR 69 RECORDS/HOUSE-HOUS 12D (184300) USA 5.99
Peter Rauhofer's classic "Unique" track from 1991 (is
it that long ago?) gets
some updated takes from Andrea Doria and Airmale. Andrea Doria serve

here,
along side a great bassline and nasty synths, while on the reverse,
Airmale
go for a more proggy take.

have
been remixed by Paul himself and have been given a clubbier feel.No

Ready for the big one...Well here is a taster for what is in store
from
Antoine Clamaran.This is a one sided limited edition beast of monstrous
proportions.It kicks off with a tracky drum loop before the bottom
end drop's
in,then all of a sudden Armageddon is upon us in a bigass way.I
would
compare it with Junior Jack's "Da Hype' but only if Jack stopped
at a store
on the way to the studio and bought some balls,coz this track certainly
has
them in abundance.This mix will not be available commercially,when
the
bomb finally drops and there aint enough of these one sided copies
to
supply demand so we strongly suggest U get those orders in now.

weeks now. 2 of the hottest names in the tribal scene, Chus &
Ceballos,
team up with the Mr. Consistency, Tedd Patterson, on this stellar
newie

tribal
gear from the guys this time, with "In Stereo" a more
structured affair, with
a great synth hook line ably assisted by great tribal percussion
elements, a
stabbing guitar loop, and a gritty bassline. Not a bad mix here
either, so

BUSTIN LOOSE/HOUSE-HOUS 12I (184787) UK 8.99
Wow...here is a bit of a pairing from a couple of long standing
old hands in
the music biz.You have on vocals Terry Hall from the old ska group
the
Specials as well as the Funboy Three and on production there is
Simon
Rogers who is in a prog act called Slacker and who is also responsible
for a
rather large hit called "Everything Begins with an E"
from the early 90's.So
there is 2 people who know how to create a hit or two and thats
the case
here with Terry's vox riding high over a very conagious disco beat.
Mixes:Vesuvians Club Mix/ Neruda Dub Mix.

Tribal Tony back with some more of the jungle sounds on this new
effort on
Wildlife.A side "The Beast" is just that and establishes
a groove with some
crisp conga's then drops in a shuffling synth line that builds the
track to a
very large climax.B side continues with two tracks much in the same
vein
with "Rain God" adding a very infectious horn sweep to
the proceedings.

RON CARROLL
GHIGH/HOUSE-HOUS 12I (184912) FRA 8.99
Uplifting dose of the spiritaully sung disco gear from Ron Carroll.Original
mix does the business with a thumping bass line a slight bit of
filtering and
the vocals in the forefront.On the B-Side Richard Grey serves up
a killer

with
switches,heavy pulses and massive drums. This track hits hard with

** also available on 12" format **
Produced by Victor Calderone & Astrid
Suryanto. Hot to trot lately, Statra keeps on in fine style with
this great new
double pack that's been in high demand around here for weeks now.
"Rainwater" has been garnering a wide range of support
from radio, to DJ's,
and the media alike, and it's now finallyavailable to the masses.
Having
already added production to recent Calderone remixes for Beyonce
and
Goldfrapp, a recent release on Bedrock, and a soon-come track on
Saw,
Astrid goes out on her own for the first time with "Rainwater".
The tune
showcases Astrid's vocal and music writing talents perfectly, while
Victor
Calderone amps up production of the sublime piano, memorable beats
and
a grabbing bassline. 6 mixes of this midtempo gem to choose from
here,
ranging from the deep house bliss of NYC's Solu Music, to the electro
poppin' of Mr. Velcro Fastener, to the thumping tribal outing by
Calderone.
And that's not to leave out the killer Bluelightisms mix by Dave
Micalizzi and
the progressive roller from Optika either - great package with something
for
all occasions, best have a copy in your box at all times.
TRACKS:
Raimwater (Original Mix)/ / Rainwater (Solu Music Mix)/ Rainwater

ICON RECORDS/HOUSE-HOUS CDD (181128) USA 12.99
** also available on 2LP format**
Derrick Carter finally gets around to
releasing his first full length under his Tone Theory/Oneiro guise.
For those
who came to Derrick via his "Squaredancing In A Roundhouse"
album on
Classic, this will be a bit of surprise. Gone are the smooth vocal
house
numbers, replaced by some dirty Chicago-flavored house, with plenty
of
analog tweaking alongside rich bassline grooves and some truly jackin'
beats. For those who've been into Carter from the beginning, this
album
harkens back to his Blue Cucaracha days when he first turned a few
heads.
A range of tempos but all with that distinct Chi-town feel. CD format
includes 4 cuts not on the 2LP set too. Not to be missed. TRACKS:
Peg
Sings Bass/ Not An End/ Open Til 5/ People 7/ My Tiger Is Satiated/
The
Stalker/ Beat/Move/ Voyagette/ The Warrior/ Shh! (TT Remix).

Daniel Paul back into the fray with this new floor mover for Cabinet.
"Love
Is In The House" takes the disco house theme and runs with
it, with it's
stabbing bassline combining with a solid kickdrum and crisp beats
while
disco loops team up with a guitar lick to get the late night crowds
grooving.
On the flip, "This Is…" is a deeper excursion, with
some great delayed
guitar hooks atop a solid bassline and peripheral effects. Still
has slight
disco tinges, especially that guitar line, but definitely one for
the later set.

blends with
some funky house jams on "Autobiographical", which is

Delerious here on Nordic Trax. 'No Warning' keeps the bassline pumping
along while a sexy female vocal drifts in and out, with the congas

tip. Also
included are a couple of dubs, the kicker being 'Seen Dub', that
has a killer
break down in the middle of a pumping house track.

Here's one we've been waiting a while for here at Watts. A bit out
of the
ordinary for Greyboy, this one, teaming up with the vastly-underrated
vocal
talents of Sharon Jones (Daptone) on "Got To Be A Love",
a delicious slice
of uptempo funk. Sharon's strong voice is certainly the key ingredient
here,
ably assisted by Greyboy and Tru Thoughts' Quantic laying down a
super
funky old school groove, think Lyn Collins.. 3 mixes to choose from
here,
and you can take your pick, cos they're all superb! Also included
is a
Gotta Be Your Love w/ Sharon Jones & Paul Nice
turntablist cut, "Son-Ray", which sees Greyboy paring
up with D-Styles and

guest MC Camel raps about a day-in-the-life of a So-Cal b-boy. Although
People Under the Stairs flirt with soul, reggae and jazz, the key
here is the
funk. "The Hang Loose" is an old school, roller-rink jam
with a funky disco
bassline. Thes and Double affect an old school, Sugar Hill Gang
