Back catalogue: Deep House

Review: Gerd Janson's Running Back seemingly has no borders or boundaries when it come to the sort of music it will put out. Next up is Partiboi69 with Call of The Void, a zippy outing that kicks off with the psychoactive synth swirls and hurried beats of 'Playin'' while 'Bodies' is a sleazy and ghetto-tinged tech pumper with well-treated vocals and big old school piano chords that endlessly stab away. 'Feel This' brings a subtly celebratory mood with splashy cymbals and wispy cosmic pads darting about up top and 'Call Of The Void' shuts down with a deeper house sound but one still lit brightly by the astral pads.

Review: 'Blue Train' is created by Piero and is the second release from the newly formed label, My Cup Of Tea. Piero, who is also the label owner, gives us four tracks of deep house that blend jazzier notes along with seductive grooves. The title track is an upbeat, pumping late-night gem that blends some vocals along with a smooth saxophone sample, 'Nikes On My Feet' adds a cool broken-beat rhythm to the mixture while still being pretty darn techy and funky and we love the use of the acid line that balances out the jazz sounds. For the B-side you have original version of 'International Language' along with a remix of it by Carlo (Carlos Alvarez). You can't go wrong with either version as a DJ. My Cup Of Tea is off to a strong start for sure.

Review: Adeen Records is on a roll right now and this time out they welcome the Detroit hero that is Marcellus Pittman for a new and beguiling four-track 12". Known for his work with The 3 Chairs collective as well as his solo jams, this Motor City mainstay opens up with 'You Always Hank Bank One Time' which is a real mental maze of rickety loops and blurts of degraded synth. 'Another Spring Lover' is another rusty and lo-fi piece of archetypal Detroit house that is very clearly machine music but with a unique sense of human soul. 'I'm Gonna Be The Everything' is a raw drum track with sparse, heartwarming chords and 'Slick Nickle Pladium Investment' is a knackered downbeat hip-hop closer. Magnificent.

Review: PRT Stacho, a Russian producer and DJ, graces the Moonrover label with his spacey celestial EP, Andromeda. This techno and house odyssey unfolds across two sides, each hosting two hypnotic tracks that transcend the boundaries of the traditional minimal genre. The title track grooves along with a beautiful melody that evokes the vastness and mystery of the cosmos. This is followed by 'Xoma', which is another mesmerizing journey that propels listeners through the galaxies. On the B-side, 'Zodiac' captivates with its intricate rhythms and celestial textures. The track's dynamic groove reflects the astrological influences that inspire its namesake. 'Dreamer' concludes the EP with a dreamy and atmospheric soundscape, inviting listeners to drift away into a world. Andromeda is a testament to his exceptional create a truly immersive and otherworldly experience. This EP transports listeners to a realm where the boundaries of dance music dissolve and the imagination can soar.
