Skate This Way (5:27)
Second Time Around (3:20)
Hart Plaza (4:48)
Review: Andres' return with the second La Vida 12" reaffirmed our belief that there's no-one out there doing it quite like the former Slum Village DJ. Second Time Around has the same insouciant, dusty charm that characterised New For U, the first drop on the Detroit deity's La Vida imprint, with the title track instantly entering the canon of house classics that change the shape of a party as soon as the needle hits the groove. The shimmying beats and cooing vocal snippets on "Skate This Way" work alongside captivating string samples. Flip over for some eloquent beatdown ("Second Time Around") and shuffling deep house exotica ("Hart Plaza").

Fabio Monesi - "Jampad One"
Fabio Monesi - "Let's Go Back"
Kastil - "Untitled Vibes"
Kastil - "Moments"
Review: The Wilson imprint deliver the goods once again with their third release, the first in a series of "Split Grooves" that brandishes a pair of classicist house productions from label boss Fabio Monesi and Spanish producer Kastil. Monesi was ever-present on Wilson this year, impressing with his obvious passion and understanding of the key elements that make 90s era deep house so seminal and demonstrated he's got the production talent to implement it within his own tracks. The status quo is retained here, with the relentlessly joyous and uplifting pump of "Jampad One" complemented by the thicker, gut punching groove and tight key play of "Let's Go Back". Previously Kastil has dabbled in both disco flecked and muscle flexing house productions, and his two bumping efforts here sit resolutely in the latter camp, demonstrating a craft for utilising vocal samples and classic melodic motifs which fit perfectly within the Wilson ethos.

Alphonse - "Survival" (part 1)
Fx Mchn - "Jackie"
Jamie Blanco - "I Think She Thinks"
Facade - "Revelations"
Review: The newly established London Housing Trust label inaugurate proceedings with a various artists 12" featuring contributions from Cynic artist Jamie Blanco alongside the previously unheralded Alphonse, Fx Mchn and Facade. It's unclear who the latter are but inside info suggests it's three well known artists operating incognito, but don't let this wilful obscurism put you off as each track here is optimum analogue house at its finest. The Fx Mchn contribution "Jackie" is particularly beguiling, touching on jagged punk funk as much as late 80s house with echo laden vocals smudged deep beneath a delightfully rubbery bass line and buccaneering, malfunctioning drums for six minutes. A promising debut from the label!

Pick & Roll
Sweat (James Welsh remix)
Review: Greymatter can probably be considered a Wolf Music stalwart, appearing on a couple of the London-based label's various artist 12?s, most memorably with the "Give It To Me Slow" cut that featured on WOLF 09. For the next release on Stu Clark and Matt Neale's label, Greymatter holds court for a solo EP, with the shimmering arpeggiated exotica of "Tisno" sharing space with basement house jam "Sweat" on the A-Side. On the flip you'll find the revving synths of "Pick & Roll" alongside a shuffling US garagey remix of "Sweat" from James Welsh.

No Music
Vermona
Hand Made Beat
Review: Firecracker offshoot Shevchenko has put out some of the finest house records of the last two years thanks to the inspiring work of Vakula. This time, however, the A Side - "No Music" - favours a more techno-leaning approach than usual. Swarms of industrial scratches are engulfed into a psychedelic arrangement packed with enough crunches to make your jaw wobble! On the flip, the aptly named "Vermona" pays a clear homage to the power of analogue beat arrangement and we're back into more familiar territories as smooth chords and effect-driven rhythms glide over the track. "Hand Made Beat" sees Vakula excel his capabilities and creates an intricate network of sloppy beats and ghostly melodies which grow and then dissolve with ease. A great addition to an already scintillating catalogue. Tip!

Meditation On Wage Labor & The Death Of The Album (Sprinkles' Unpaid Overtime) (DJ Sprinkles Unpaid Overtime remix)
Meditation On Wage Labor & The Death Of The Album (Day 1, Take 1 vinyl edit)
Review: A second volume of DJ Sprinkles remixes of tracks from Terre Thaemlitz's album Soulnessless arrives, digesting the concepts behind the World's First Full-Length MP3 Album In 16 GB microSDHC into something much more appropriate for the dancefloor. Here "Meditation On Wage Labor & The Death Of The Album" is given two diverse yet still very expansive Sprinkles renditions. The Unpaid Overtime remix gently lays the calming piano tones over an expertly crafted house groove that skips along picking up different degrees of percussive intent for 13 sublime minutes. The calmness of those piano notes are fully exposed on the accompanying The Day 1, Take 1 vinyl edit which is naked but for them across nearly 18 immersive minutes.

Horizon
Dazed
See Through You
Review: With an excellent release on Tusk Wax in his armoury and a notable collaboration with Bicep on their recent Aus EP, Norn Irish lad Ejeca seems primed to follow the trajectory set by the aforementioned burger loving duo. The Horizons EP, his debut for the Needwant imprint sees Ejeca throwing down three tracks that are very much steeped in the same vocal lead New Jersey garage sound that Bicep are currently plundering to great effect, not least on the thickly infectious title track that demonstrates Ejeca's ease for crafting a killer breakdown. "Dazed" eschews the reliance on vocals for some deft chord usage and excellent drum programming, while "See Through You" shimmers with garage indebted warmth.

Out
Sway Zee
In This Society
Review: Strength Music finally returns to action with label boss, DJ Qu. Releases on the label are few and far between these days, so we're super psyched for this latest instalment. On the A Side, "Out" is Qu at his finest, giving us his usual fill of mesmerizing percussion and sophisticated use of deranged effects. Over on the flip, "Swayzee" goes deeper into the synth chords and takes a more meditative approach. Finally, "In This Society" takes a turn for the unexpected, as Qu places a weighty beat beneath what seems to be his own voice commanding the entire duration of the track. Great stuff as always from the NYC don.

Amir Alexander - "Eyes Open Mouth Shut"
Amir Alexander - "Bittersweet Memories"
Hakim Murphy - "Hazey Plains In Time"
Hakim Murphy - "Chill"
Review: This split EP offers a number of attractions, not least a luscious sound that fixes classic, Detroit style futurism to vintage deep house grooves. There's something particularly galactic about the undulating synths and tight grooves of Hakim Murphy's "Hazey Plains In Time", while the same producer's "Chill" delivers a bubbling journey through warm electronics and tasty melodies. More obviously floor-friendly is Amir Alexander's borderline anthemic "Eyes Open Mouth Shut" - all touchy-feely chords, booming grooves and cascading synth melodies - while the quicker "Bittersweet Memories" evokes images of classic Motor City productions. Impressive stuff, all told.

Don't Get Me Wrong
Shimmy
Don't Get Me Wrong (Tornado Wallace remix)
Review: Recloose on Delusions of Grandeur? Yes please! "Don't Get Me Wrong" is classic Matt Cicioine, packed full of his usual musicality and dense, melodic production. It sounds like an unlikely fusion of distant, long-forgotten disco and spine-tingling deep house, with more atmospheric vocal samples and live instruments than you can shake a smelly stick at. It's heady and intoxicating, coming on like a classic house production made somewhere between Detroit and New York. The driving "Shimmy" continues the murky, retro-futurist trend and is just as engaging. As if that wasn't enough, there's also a lovingly fluid, decidedly Balearic rework of the title track from Melbournite Tornado Wallace that's quite possibly the best thing he's done to date. Splendid!

Fred P - "It's All In The Mind" (6:39)
Pjotr - "Waves From The Past" (8:30)
Vakula - "Uliyanochka" (6:26)
Benedikt Frey - "Untitled 3" (6:10)
Review: ** Repress of the Ethereal Sound classic! **It's time for another dose of mystical deep house vibes on the renowned Ethereal Sound. Their mini compilations are always eagerly awaited here at Juno HQ, and this time they showcase the talent of NY house wizard Fred P and Ukraine's main man, Vakula. Fred P's tracks are always a pleasure to listen to and "It's All In The Mind" reaffirms his talents as one of deep house's finest. The beat opens with an unusually punchy acid sound for Mr.P but soon dissolves and melts into something much more sparse and disconnected. New man Pjotr takes the helms on "Waves From The Past" and opens with a stunning chord shadowing a distant sample of a jazz gig which weaves and moulds its way through to the end. On the flip, Vakula drops an intricate percussion filled with bongos and subtle basslines like only he knows how to do best, while Benedikt Frey ties thing up in true Ethereal style on "Untitled 3", creating a stylish atmosphere and serves as a welcome addition to their already impressive artist catalogue.

BLM - "My Sound Tool"
Flori - "Red Rectangle"
James Johnston - "Lights Off"
Review: Since launching at the tail end of 2011, the Black Key label has proved itself to be a solid destination for those seeking high-grade deep house. Here, they showcase the work of a trio of 'friends of the family'. BLM opens proceedings with "My Sound Tool", a fluid chunk of eyes-wide-shut deepness containing just the right amount of bump. James Johnston's "Lights Off" is typical of his recent atmospheric outings, and matches the loose fluidity of BLM's opener. Best of all, though, is Flori's "Red Rectangle", a Larry Heard-ish chunk of classic Chicago deepness with just a hint of classic analogue shuffle.

Not Enough
Not Enough (KRL remix)
Review: Jacques Renault and Co's Brooklyn imprint, Let's Play House, has been busy ensuring that the classic house and disco sound of New York stays alive for a hot minute now. This new release couldn't be more Big Apple if it tried: "Tonight", with its thumping kick, campy claps and looped Gypsy Woman organs, positively screams Limelight circa 1991. Ooft! keeps a lot of the early 90s sentiment in his own remix, even bringing Bjork's "Violently Happy" to mind. B-Side, "Not Enough", again keeps with the retro organs, but adds harder modern loops. Finally, KRL's mix steers away from tradition, offering a more contemporary leftfield approach.

New Age House (7:39)
The True Story Of House Music (Unreleased Thrie Way mix) (6:55)
I'm So Alone (Unreleased dub mix) (5:19)
Review: Having already documented the Burrell Brothers story this year, Rush Hour have announced details of another retrospective look at a key figure of the formative New York house music scene in Elbee Bad, the self professed Prince Of Dance Music. A forthcoming compilation is due that documents the late 80s and early 90s output of Elbee Bad, aka Lamont Booker, a producer still active today and now residing in Berlin. The compilation takes its title from the Nu Groove 12" that Booker released early in his career and this vinyl sampler features "New Age Of House" along with two previously unreleased mixes that will apparently not appear in any other format. All three tracks are essential listening for anyone with a keen interest in rough and rugged house music from days gone by, and the 12" comes in authentic label art and A6 card insert.
