via TurntableLab: Detroit is in the house! What more can you say when 3 Chairs are on deck? The quartet of seasoned producers is back with the four track Demigods EP. It’s interesting because you can hear the touch of Theo Parrish, Kenny Dixon Jr, Rick Wilhite and Marcellus Pittman …
Future Classic: Rihanna “Cockiness” (Jonas LR remix)
For the record I’m not a big fan of Rihanna. I don’t really dig her voice and struggle with the sheer amount of radio play she gets. This Christmas, I bought my little sister a copy of Frank Ocean’s Channel Orange to try and wean her off a diet of …
Future Classic: Outboxx “Outboxx” (Idle Hands)
I don’t consider myself a specialist of House music or assume anything about what I don’t recognize because most of it is new to me anyway. House is only a genre that I have recently begun to have a proper relationship with, so I am slightly clueless about where to …
Mix of the day: DJ Blue “Origami”
Words & Sounds from DJ Blue: “Origami, the traditional Japanese art of paper folding. I was inspired by this antique art when I conceived this mixtape. I had thought to bend many different musical genres, future-oriented: some different musical scenarios that flow together to form an Origami. Like the flow …
Mix of the day: Kerri Chandler “RA.315”
“It feels like I started all over from scratch,” Kerri Chandler told us in a recent interview. He was of course referring to his relationship with Circo Loco, the Italian party brand based out of DC-10 in Ibiza. After a period of persuasion Chandler agreed to play for the crew …
Future Classic: Owiny Sigoma Band “Power Punch” (Brownswood Recordings)
Usually when I say that a record or a song is “interesting”, it’s a polite way of saying it’s not really my thing or doesn’t inspire any sort of overly positive or negative reaction. But when it comes to the Owiny Sigoma Band, for once I really mean it!! When …
Tribute to PEPE BRADOCK – Selected by Lexis
Originally recorded & released in 2009. A little tribute mix to one of my favorite house music producers ever, the criminally underrated PEPE BRADOCK! Here’s one of the true house heads! A little mix I put together of all the tracks I have from one of my favorite producers, criminally underrated …
Future Classic: Boundary “Boundary”
Breaking away from what had become so familiar with his name during the last few years, Montreal producer Poirier revealed today a new identity alongside a new self-titled and self-released record, Boundary. As Boundary, Poirier comes back to its minimalist ambient and techno sound of the early 2000s – with …
Future Classic: Romare “Love Songs EP” (Black Acre Records)
Finally, Romare’s new four track “Love Songs: Part One” EP on Black Acre is out! We are really excited for the good news but could it possibly match our high expectations? Yes, it does. Last years’ ‘Meditations on Afrocentrism’ EP was definitely one of our favorites of 2012. It was such a …
Future Classic: DJ Koze “Amygdala” (Pampa Records)
When it comes to house and techno, I like to think I’m a pretty strict guy. Most of the dance tracks that come out these days are mind-numbingly boring and predictable to me (not to mention excessively filtered and over-produced). I’ll almost always favour sounds that are “raw and gritty” …
Future Classic: Levon Vincent “Specks Jam”
This was one of the very last cuts that got left out of our last MIMS Show but I kind of regret it now. Let’s be honest though, this track will probably find its way on one our mixes at some point as it is indeed a “future classic“. You regular …
24HOV Mixes: IRON GALAXY (Montreal)
Another really great mix taken from the 7th edition of the 24 HOURS OF VINYL in Montreal (March 2nd 2013). This one comes from IRON GALAXY who is really starting to make heads turn with releases on Audio Culture, Late Night Tales and Turbo Records. He came through for an …
