Tim Green // Half Tone EP

31 Jul

Tim Green Half Tone

Ladies and gentlemen, we are thrilled to announce Tim Green‘s return to Get Physical with a special 2 track EP ‘Halftone / Midnight Roller’. Full of heavy groove and punchy bass, ‘Halftone’ breaks open the EP with a bang. Jungle vibes, organic percussion and edgy synth lines push us over the edge and into the night! The next half of the EP is ‘Midnight Roller’ shares the same bass-ridden vibe as the first half, while adding a groovy chord rhythm and ambient vocal cuts to great effect. All in all the EP shines of Tim’s undeniable signature sound weve come to adore over the years. (Beatport, 2013) Buy it here.

Pretty Ill EP

It is upon the time for Alfred Heinrichs and Carlo Ruetz to adapt upon their first astonishing collaboration and present to you their second breathtaking piece of heart work… …Fans of their first analog EP will be pleased to hear that both producers once again implemented the pure minimal-techno sound into their creation. For all vinyl rockers the sound will be preserved on a truly unique piece of black gold for the first weeks that will be limited and arise such an enthusiasm in the bodies of those lucky enough to catch its melody that it will leave no feet resting. Fans and friends can look forward to a magnificent acoustical and visual experience. (subdub, 2013) Beatport here. And for you vinyl heads, here.

George Morel – Let’s Groove (Claptone Remix)

9 Jul

George Morel - Let's Groove (Claptone Remix)

George Morel broke new ground with his iconic track “Let’s Groove” – defining a genre and a moment with his sound – a feat achieved by only a precious few. That was in 1992 – when techno & house was the new kid on the block. Now, 21 (!) years later we revisit this colossal track and fit it with some remixes, including one from the man himself. 

Tom Trago, Claptone, Coyu and DJ T. and PBR Streetgang all take on the dinosaur and give it a new breath of life in 2013. The results are amazing, and even more so when we reflect on all that came between. An entire lifetime of music and celebration lead up to this point, and will continue long after – after all, it is the spirit of the music which never really dies. (Claptone SC, 2013)

Viers // 0002 / Your Body

9 Jul

viers church

Following on from Rumah’s largely acclaimed Stutter/Murmur EP, which received support from the likes of Skream, Dusky, Sei A & More. South London Party starters Church are back with another offering from new blood Viers. The A Side reflects Viers deep and atmospheric approach to his productions, with subtle elements and a weighty sub pulsating throughout the track, it’s the perfect tool to hype up an audience. The catchy hook and hefty 4/4 beat of the flip side Your Body is also sure to receive a lot of attention from all the right sources landing somewhere in between House & Techno territory. Apes & Seb Wildblood’s mix of 0002 offers a more nostalgic take on the track with a heavy focus towards the dance floor, yet managing to retain a strong sense of atmosphere throughout . Squarehead offers up a lighter hearted cut of Your Body, his House & Garage influence track is carried by a stomping baseline and ravey synth lines. The Release furthermore cements Church’s reputation as an imprint and goes some way into moulding something of a signature sound. (Church BP, 2013) Beatport here.

GoldFFinch // The Volume EP

8 Jul

goldffinch volume ep

GoldFFinch are back….back on Saigon Recordings…..back to the dancefloor. POW! 4 new tracks on an EP entitled ‘The Volume’, guess what the first track is called… yes, we don’t do clever EP names. The lead track is smashing up the airwaves/dancefloors, we do sincerely hope that no injuries have occurred due to any aggro-dance moves (we’re not liable). Support across the board from the likes of Paleman, Loefah, Mary Anne Hobbs, Benji B – this supreme Belgian duo are going from strength to strength, fresh from their appearance on the US based Dirtybird label. GoldFFinch/Saigon fully endorse the use of Peacock related imagery. (Surus, 2013) Buy it here. Beatport here.

Hector Moralez // I’m a House Brand

8 Jul

Hector Moralez

I’m A House Gangster‘s sixth release comes from Hector Moralez, who say’s it is an EP created with one man in mind: “This EP was especially made for Sneak. I wanted to come correct, and make something dope… That’s Hard!”

The three tracks, introduced by Hector:o 
“Freakin’ Molly” – For one, I like Molly. This track was made right before I went to the States for a visit. I was inspired by hip hop, wanted something dirty for the dance floors, got the concept after finding a hilarious video from A$AP & Danny Brown, and sampled the vocals to make the track. I watched these videos, and kept laughing for days, then I made the track with dancefloor freaks in mind. I wanted something HARD with a sense of humour! Just listen to the lyrics in the track, this shit is funny!

“Brand New” – was made right after coming home from the States, and I was refreshed from the visit and itching to get back in the studio, this was the outcome!

“Acid By Numbers” – was made right before WMC Miami 2013 – I produced this track specifically for the “I’m A House Gangster” WMC Party!

Rising from Oakland, California, Hector Moralez has paid his dues by working tirelessly from the bottom up. Now in demand at clubs and events throughout the world, he is renowned for his intelligent and soul awakening house music. His music has been found on many stellar labels including: Music For Freaks, Nightshift, Detour, Vista, Brique Rouge, Magnetic, Apollonia, Pacha Recordings, Doubledown, Lowdown Music, and Robsoul. Now based in Paris, France – a move that made his latest collaboration with longtime collaborator Chris Carrier, possible. The duo released their debut album “Lotus S7ven” on the hyped French imprint Apollonia. This LP spawned a new (live) show, a first for Hector – pushing boundaries, creating a new sound, and taking his career to the next level. Hector also manages his own distinguished underground labels, Minority Music and The Factory.

A bonafide House Gangster from the start, Hector is well placed to give his take on how the movement has developed: It started out small and keeps on growing and growing! It’s a way to support the people behind the brand, and show some love. We’re all part of this dance music community and supporting each other, is the only way to keep it really alive. House is a minority in the big picture of EDM, Dance Music, whatever you wanna call it, so I think the HG sound is something you don’t have to think about, it’s always gonna be HOUSE. And hopefully the wide range of audiences will take the chance and see whats up with the soul and vibe that makes House Music one of the BEST.”

GoldFFinch // 11th Hour

1 Jul

goldffinch 11th hour

With a change in the season and the promise of balmy city sunsets on the horizon, it feels natural that dirtybird should drop a much welcomed curveball into their 2013 EP catalogue. Courtesy of Belgium born duo, GoldFFinch, the ‘11th Hour’ EP explores the label’s more implicit approach to bass, with all the richly textured, distinctively UK sounds we’ve come to expect from the pair. The EP also marks GoldFFinch’s first original dirtybird release proper, after proving their worth on the heavy hitting Players compilation and remixing French Fries’ ‘Space Alarm’ as an induction.  
   
‘11th Hour’ opens the EP with a beautifully carved intro of muted, sensual synths and a blunted percussion beat that immediately picks out a swinging, London-centric rhythm. As the distant yearn of afterhours city lights emerges, the intro melts into a fluid-yet-funky roller, a languid longing for the urban twilight hour. ‘Sultry Steel’ flirts with UK Garage foundations, as the drums skip along with knowing skill and a slinky vocal sample punctuates the fuzzy atmosphere. As the track name suggests, it’s the steel drum melody that gives the beat its memorable dance floor significance.  
   
Erring on the subtler side of late night bass, dirtybird has uncovered a veritable gem here. Enjoy!
