Our 20th celebration year continues with a very special comeback! Its exactly ten years now since the last Ben La Desh release on our label, his sublime Stellar Talk EP hit big waves and together with the Midnight Rendez-Vous EP from 2012 he cemented himself in the lo-fi deep space house scene as an artist to look out for, no one produced deep house like he did back than. After a longer break from releasing music he is back and we think stronger as ever, with analogue gear and well curated sampling and live field recording we present you his Fine Rise EP. The opener Heel Goed is an amazing track with that distinctive 909 beat and DX bass driven La Desh flavour and a truly wonderful vocal sample from a 90s TV commercial, hilariously funny and brilliant at the same time! We cant wait to see the faces of people, especially on the Dutch dancefloors, when they try to figure out and discover what the ladies are talking about! Second A side track is the super funky Lift Adrift that flanges itself to outer space, etherical with chopped break beats and various percussive and rhythmic Pearl Syncussion layers running through effect pedals, Lift Adrift! On the other side we start out with the deep title track Fine Rise. Here Ben treats us again to his trademark spaced out effects driven sound and on top a killer bass line and synth lead melody, reminiscent of the golden age of (good) trance music. Followed by the break beat gem that is Asanti, cautiously cut up breaks and layered machine drums with bubbly Syncussion sounds, rain drops falling down on different surfaces recorded in a garden in the French Drome and processed African Kalimba. Did we already say Etherical? It is! Closing out this great new record is the ambient piece Expanding Signal, an analogue tune that consists of field recordings and deep dubby chords, a building Juno pulse, swooshes and again a profound DX bassline, think of Sun Electric or The Orb. Enjoy this one and play it loud on the dance floors or silently in your bedroom, it works everywhere as far as we are concerned! All tracks mastered by Salz Mastering in Cologne. Photography & Art by Break 3000.
Clone Royal Oak for all things House! This one for the deep house warriors... John Daly delivering two cuts reminiscent of the early 90's NY deep house vibes. On the a-side we got the warm jazzy ''I Get So High'' in the AM mix and the original mix featuring vocals by Barbara Vulso and Saxophone by Jabin Ward. On the flip side we have the dreamy ''Two Days'' in the original version and one of those rare house mixes by Alden Tyrell & Serge who added some bump to this release. John Daly, the OG Irish deep house maestro is back!
Give a warm welcome to Anna Schreit, who's making her debut on Compost with the amazing "Duck EP" - a warm and funky soulful three tracker.

And one's for sure: according to the music these guys must be really nice guys. For fans of Chaos In The CBD and Moodymann... Enjoy!

For the first Klasse Wrecks release of 2024, the label looks back to 2020 and a previously digital only track from label co-owner Mr. Ho. During the first lockdown of covid Mr. Ho released '000Baby' as part of the digital 'Homeboys' EP alongside Luca Lozano. An alternative version popped up on the 'Michaelsoft' album in 2021 but the much lauded original has never seen the light of day on wax....until now. The first 10inch on Klasse Wrecks also features a suped and sped up interpretation from Om Unit, who expertly increases the pressure with deft 808 bass subs, a half time swagger and dubbed out atmospherics.
Underground hero and label boss DJ Steaw makes his Nu Groove debut with 'Seascape EP', a four-track odyssey of deep, soulful house. With over 12 years of experience, the revered DJ and producer is known for his arresting sets appearing on famed stages including Berlin's Tresor, London's fabric, Amsterdam's Shelter and all over his home nation of France. As an electronic tastemaker spanning multiple genres and influences, DJ Steaw has launched House Puff Records, Steaward and Rutilance Records, the latter of which he co-founded with crate digger Gunnter. Having already received support from tastemaker Chris Stussy, this four-track package is a perfect fit for the cult NYC label. Opening with the powerful stabs of 'Take It There', 'Seascape EP' explores the producer's signature, bass-heavy sound as well as the myriad of influences from further afield. The title track 'Seascape' contrasts breathy pads with bright, dynamic percussion, as 'Close To You' and 'Exotica' further demonstrate a recognisable, nostalgic aesthetic that is both club-ready and dreamlike in quality.

'Explore the 'Jacuzzi Days' EP, stemming from the fruitful collaboration between the talented German producer ICTV and the Swiss knife DimSum. These longtime accomplices, previously united on the Love Ensemble project, came together last summer in the South of France to give birth to this sun soaked Deep House workout. The A-Side features a solo production from each, starting off with 'Morning Dew' by ICTV, which carries a strong sentiment, embedded in a modern House music production. Next on is DimSum's 'Rama to NY,' an ode to the Deep House sounds of 90s New York, adorned with a Soulful touch and Hip-Hop samples. The flip side features the collaborative tracks of this EP, a perfect blend of both of their universes. 'United Freedom Inc.,' a club-ready tune drawing influences from 90s House, sprinkled with subtle modernity and a vocal sample depicting our contemporary society. The EP closes with 'Jacuzzi Days,' an invitation to escape inspired by Italian Dream House of the golden era. Dive into the harmony between impactful beats, retro influences, and sprinkled with emotions of the 'Jacuzzi Days', inviting you to an emotional yet club ready sonic journey.'

Pitch-perfect house is headed for Cassy's Kwench Records label to kick off 2024 as she collaborates with Fred P and has Steve Rachmad in providing two remixes. Three powerhouses right there and the music is as deep and evocative as music heads would expect. To fans who snap up his records, Fred P is known to be prolific. He became a label affiliate with Kwench Records from day dot, cutting through on the second release with a remix package of the imprint's inaugural EP with Cassy and Demuir. He reappeared in 2020 with epic four-tracker Enter the Dancefloor. Dutch veteran Steve Rachmad is also known for keeping the pace. Churning out high-end electronic music that spans techno and house for over 30 years using various aliases, it's his first appearance on the imprint. "I'm so proud of this release. We're all close in an artistic way - sonically, it works so well. With timing, it's been the perfect storm," Cassy enthuses. "Fred and I have wanted to collaborate for years. We took our time with the record, especially with the mixing process - we wanted it to sound quite unlike anything we've put out separately. It's bombastic goodness. Steve's brought two incredible rerubs - the first one is stripped back, more in keeping in with the original's groove. I was at Amsterdam airport when I first listened to the second remix, hearing more of his techno influences. I was actually moved to tears. It's stunning." 'I'm grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with Cassy and continue the narrative that we've been developing on Kwench. The sound speaks to what I love most about dance music and what it can be, with amazing people working together in service to the music. I hope everyone enjoys this EP and finds the possibilities that suit their personal fantasy." - Fred P "On remix 1, my goal was to highlight the beautifully played piano solo by Fred P. I added some minor percussion - a saxophone and some marimba on top because it felt like it fitted really well. On mix 2, I was just fiddling around with some loops and sounds, and at some point it all locked in and magic happened. It was a great pleasure to work on this project and show a bit of a different side of myself." - Steve Rachmad
Dial Records boss makes a welcome return to Smallville in March of 2024 with a fresh four-tracker EP 'Gravity Hill'. Peter Kersten, better known to most as Lawrence, has been at the forefront of underground house and techno for decades now. His Dial imprint, co-founded alongside Carsten Jost, has grown to become a north star for many seeking out raw, emotive and understated electronic music and Lawrence's own productions follow a similar path, finding a home on many beloved labels beyond Dial such as Kompakt, Mule Musiq, Ghostly International, Giegling, Pampa and of course Smallville, that he co-founded together with Stella Plazonja and Julius Steinhoff in 2005. Title-track 'Gravity Hill' opens the project and perfectly sets the tone with Lawrence's distinct atmospheric haze of keys, chords and pads billowing atop swaying bass tones and crisp drums. 'Beaver' follows next and edges into dubbed out realms with expansive stab delays, rounded subs, modulating percussive flutters and a robust rhythmic drive. 'The Swamp' then leads the B-side, diving into a deeper territory via airy Rhodes melodies and subtly unfurling pads, intertwined with organic percussion and a jazz tinged bass line. 'Stargazer' then concludes the package and shifts back to a more straight, dance floor- oriented feel via a twitchy acid bass, circling resonant synth licks, hypnotic textures and a swinging drum groove. Smallville 62 artwork by Stefan Marx as always and it's the first 12" Smallville cover in full colour ever after 61 black/white releases.

Longtime friends and musical collaborators Max Essa and Eddie C join the RNT fold with a 4 tracker of melancholic and exquisitely produced chilled out disco. Begun as a lockdown project, the We Live In The Hills EP explores a vast palette of sonic soundscapes, from the shimmering guitars and acid lines of Melon Stepping, to the insistent rolling bass and whimsical synths of Save Me, the deep funk of the EP's title track, and the late nite driving soundtrack stylings of Sixth Bridge. This EP tells a hopeful story of emerging from isolation and doubt, like a lovely musical sunrise after a long dark night.
AM is thrilled to introduce to you the latest digital record that is set to make waves in the House music scene - "I've Asked Myself" by the talented Italian artist, Justnique. This highly anticipated release marks his second collaboration with us. Out on the 23rd of February 2024, "I've Asked Myself" is a musical journey that showcases Justnique's prowess in crafting infectious House beats that transcend traditional boundaries. Consisting of three tracks - "Another Party Girl," "That Fever," and the title track "I've Asked Myself" - this digital record promises an impressive sonic experience. First is "Another Party Girl," a composition that exudes a nostalgic retro, disco music feel. The track immerses the listener in a pulsating rhythm, transporting them to the golden era of disco while maintaining a contemporary edge. Next up there's "That Fever," a track that takes the tempo down a notch, offering a smooth groove coupled with sensual male vocals. Closing out the record is the eponymous track, "I've Asked Myself." This final offering is a masterclass in elegance and sophistication, presenting a new interpretation of House music, with a great groove that is both classy and refined. Mark your calendars for the 23rd of February 2024, as "I've Asked Myself" will be available on all major digital and streaming platforms. Justnique's latest endeavour promises to solidify his status as a new force to be reckoned with in the realm of House music.
Two deep and soulful UK house aficionados, KingCrowney and Jimpster unite on The Remedy Project featuring vocals from LEGZDINA. KingCrowney is widely regarded for his work as a trumpeter, recording and touring with MOBO and Brit Award winning collective Rudimental ever since UK number one 'Feel The Love'. As such, lively jazz influences often pervade the London producer's smooth releases, who now teams up with Freerange Records and Delusions of Grandeur founder Jimpster; the revered UK DJ's discography of deep house extends back to the late 90s, with his informed sets pulling in house heads ever since those seminal releases. 'The Back' combines the two artists propensity for the golden era of house into one, slick Remedy Project release, featuring spoken-word vocals from mother of poetry LEGZDINA – a Latvian artist whose idiosyncratic style has led to collaborations with Idris Elba, lau.ra and Bianca Oblivion on Jamz Supernova's label Future Bounce, with an EP incoming on Three Six Zero in Spring 2024. KingCrowney & Jimpster featuring LEGZDINA 'The Back' 1. The Back 2. The Back (Extended Mix) 3. The Back (Instrumental) 4.

Nathalie Capello debuts on Hot Haus with a stunning 3 track EP Other Dimensions - fresh from dropping bombs on Dansu Discs - here we are treated to low-slung-houz infused with atmospheric retro infused tech house electronica - Tip!
Up with the second volume of his 'Essence of House' journey, Orlando Voorn resurfaces on Fluid Funk with a quintet of jams oozing extra-terrestrial funkiness and unadulterated, future-proof swagger. True to the transporting sound ID that's come to define Voorn's far-reaching imaginarium, 'Essence of House Part 2' highlights both the Dutch master's versatility and pinpoint precision in programming. A bouquet of early Detroit tech brainwaves, tinged with hints of faux-balearic Venusian vibrations, loungey Latin jazz tropes and piano house gone kosmische-laced, this new effort effortlessly bridges the many influences that have been infusing Voorn's music over the years, treating us to a vibrant mix of outerspacey escapology, hip-swaying sensuality and heavy-lidded, late night boogie. Beaming us up into Voorn's vividly hued headspace, opener 'Freedom' goes the Cuban jazz-indebted route with its hot-tempered syncopations and fleet-footed percussions contrasting neatly against a crystalline, dreamy melodic line. The hi-NRG opener 'Essence of House (Solid Mix)' tackles things pedal to the metal, ushering us into a hurricane of slo-drippin' piano stabs, heavily filtered synth loops and playful bleep-bloop motifs, elegantly pouring along as a paced-up 4x4 charge cuts a path of destruction into our numb minds. A jacking piece of early '90s-style house attitude, 'The Calling' merges an understated funky groove with exploratory keyboard wizardry only Voorn knows how to pull off. Back to a more muscular mindset, 'Rhythm (1999 Mix)' extrapolates Voorn's subtly intricate polyphony of cinematic chords, club-ready euphoria and ever acute sound design to absolutely lethal effect. Exuding ridiculous levels of slap bass flair and live-played bravura, final number 'Rhythm (2024 Mix)' ticks all the boxes of the total laid-back heater, ready to have the sexy-o-meter through the roof as it smoothly exhales its filthily luvin' poison through the woofers. Sweaty nights ahead.
Freestyle Man is back with 3 old school rollers from his evergrowing vault of tunes. We start with classic deep house vibes on 'Atlantic City Blues' telling the story of a night of lost love and lucre, while 'Microdosing My Groove' takes him to a dub related groove, bending the time and space axis to a pleasantly distorted reality. The EP closer is a classic from his 1996 debut on Sähkö Recordings called Cosa Nostra in a 2024 version which has parts from the original sessions melted in a furnace for another soul scorching experience. Fasten Your Seatbelts.
Yes yes, it's time for another artist debut on Nordic Trax. Irish producer Glennny (by-way-of Berlin) makes his recording debut with a splendid six-track EP of deep & jazzy house – featuring a remix from Canadian house don Jon Delerious. A new name to the house community, Glennny is a guitar player, deejay and producer making his mark on the scene. You can hear his diverse influences on the title track with its hooky guitar lick and floating keys. Calgary producer and long-time NT collaborator Jon Delerious rinses out the original with an eye to dancefloor and an irresistible groove. Let's Go is a peak-time mover driven by an electro bassline and a shuffly organ hook that just won't let… go. On Passionate old-school UK garage elements are brought to the present day and wrapped around a driving vocal. Finally on Serene and Thunderstorms Glennny expands the range of the release with atmospheric grooves and a laidback contemporary vibe for those late nights and early mornings. Originally from Wicklow, Ireland Glennny currently resides in Berlin where he has been exploring his artistic expression in the form of house music. During his formative years in Dublin he held down a few dj residencies at The Twisted Pepper, Lost Society and Hangar. Among others he's opened for artists including Dale Howard, Boddika and De Sluwe Vos and played the Irish festival Life. In 2023 he made his Amsterdam Dance Event debut at the Loudeast x Nordic Trax party alongside Nacho Marco, Finest Wear, Gavin Boyce and label boss Luke McKeehan.

The follow-up to the first Acid Sampler is now in the hands of a single artist. Space Dimension Controller does Running Back the honor to leave his fingerprints on the (usually) silver box - and it's a match made in heaven. The Irish man's music is mostly a nod to the subtle and more delicate ramifications of electronic music. His Acid Sampler is no exception. Most of the EP presents itself as an ode to the brain dance vibe of acid house rooted music. While leaving out the harder and faster styles of the genre, SDC manages to pour his heart and soul as a producer into these four charming tracks. Kosmische Conga works as the leader of the pack and pirouettes with memorable hooks, synthesizer swells and descant acid lines. Echopet introverts the whole concept, while Minehead peaks with it. Named after the seaside town that harbored the Bloc Weekend festival, its a warp-free romantic reflex of the brain dance vibe - or a heartfelt love song for circuits. Carinacid completes the quartet with a chugging and hugging mid tempo beat that could have gone on forever. Acid test passed! Artwork by Gasius.
Derek Carr presents the 'Mass Consumption' e.p. on Trident Recordings (TRECS011) - Derek's 11th Release on his own label features a varying display of styles and genres, from the big room sound of 'Ill Met By Moonlight' and 'Skeksis II', to the deep melodic bounce of 'Going Thru Life', finishing off with the skittering electro beats of 'Nod'.

For the first release of 2024 we are very proud and happy to present to you DJ Merci! An artist who has been on our radar for a long time now and of whom we've always been very impressed with the quality and consistency of his work. Delivering 4 solid House tunes, DJ Merci takes us on a journey through his style which is drenched in the true way of making House music, like they used to make it in the 90s. Building on that legacy he creates his own sound and brings us an EP that could possibly deserve the stamp "Classic" in the future. On the A-side we have Henry Street and Disco Jam, which provide us with the solid grooves and punchy beats. While we take it a bit more relaxed and chill on the B-side with Flânerie (French for lounging about) and Walking On The Beach. We hope you are as amazed and inspired by his music as we are! We are very happy with such a solid start of the new year!!
