The Hype: Rising out of the EU Underground come the Soundealers who debuted on King Street Sounds with a couple straight forward simple, almost nonexistent, mini-vocal in previous release I Know You Want Me EP. “I Know You Want Me” comes out the box already remixed by Langenberg, best known for his “Mild Pitch” sexy midtempo sound, and a simple head-sticking interpretation by Rey & Kjavik. This EP features their original mixes remix by upcoming Russian Producer Dima Studitsky. Dimas remix on Keep On has an orchestral yet atmospheric approach that gives an epic feel to the track. I Know You Want Me and Keep On original mixes provide nostalgic strings, synth chords and vocals that mesh together to create distinctive melancholic moods. Here you can feel a new wind of house music imported from Portugal.

Callisto

July 30, 2012 in Forteba, Nacho Marco, Nite Grooves, Paul Hardcastle Jr.

Title: Callisto
Artist: Nacho Marco & Paul Hardcastle Jr.
Release Date: July 30, 2012
Label: Nite Grooves
Cat#: KNG 415

Now available at Beatport

The Hype: One of Spain’s hottest up & comers, Nacho Marco, previously know for his outstanding work on Tronic Sounds, Plastic City, Freerange Records, returns to Nite Grooves with funky new cinematic instrumental, “Callisto.” Named for the second moon of Jupiter, this isn’t as far out as you’d think. Rather a straight up 4/4 groove with some sweet sax-y riffs by Paul Hardcastle, Jr. Incidentally Paul recently released Perceptions of Pacha VII (Pacha Recordings), remixed by Nacho. Together they make quite a team and are bringing more of their quality productions stateside. A nice bonus flow is brought on by deep house producer Forteba, who also had releases on Plastic City & Tronic Sounds, recently did a cool remix of From P60 with Lisa Shaw “Magic.”

It contains some of the most well-known classics in the King Street catalog including the smash hit “Closer,” with Carol Sylvan & complete with Original Version, Dub and Spencer Parker remix.

Eighteen (18) tunes in all will make you stand back, listen and appreciate some truly amazing talent and maybe boogie while you’re at it.

Title: Dirty Love
Artist: Sunshine Jones
Release Date: July 16, 2012
Label: Nite Grooves
Cat#: KNG 413

Available at Beatport

The Hype: Former Dubtribe Sound System frontman Sunshine Jones has always been known for his amazingly funky deep rhythms layered over haunting / sensual / tripped out spoken word. He continues his signature sound on “Dirty Love,” a new Nite Grooves alterna-electronic single done up in his truly unique style. Stemming from his upcoming album, this single is taken further into the esoteric depths with a Back To The 90′s Dub by quality EU Tech House producers Aki Bergen & Daniell Jaze and an indie funked out electric disco debut remix by multifaceted DJ/Producer Louie Fresco. We love the sweet sounds of Sunshine!

Title: Pick It Up (Sean McCabe Mixes)
Artist: Carolyn Harding
Release Date: July 6, 2012
Label: King Street Sounds
Cat#: KSS 1372

Available now at Traxsource

The Hype: What do legendary dj/producers Roger Sanchez, Kerri Chandler & Jon Cutler have in common with talented UK producer Sean MaCabe? All have done remixes on one of the most well-known classic tunes in the King St catalog. Kerri launched this tune in 1995 with Roger S mixes and then a decade later Jon Cutler brought it out of the depths with his amazing production style. Now another 7 years later and Sean McCabe, who’s long-been inspired by Kerri Chandler, adds his skillful touch & makes Carolyn Harding sound as good as the first day this was recorded.

Club Abduction

July 12, 2012 in Doomwork, Street King

Title: Club Abduction
Artist: Doomwork
Release Date: July 9, 2012

Available now at Traxsource, Beatport, iTunes

The Hype: Attn: Deep House/ Tech House/ Ambient Groove lovers! With purely bareboned stripped down rhythmic goodness you can feel, remarkably-talented Italian production duo Doomwork finally drop their album, Club Abduction, on Street King. They already have growing list of supporters that include Pete Tong, Radio Slave, Loco Dice and Carl Cox, carving out a weighty reputation in just a few years with a Beatport tech-house number one (Cowabunga on Christian Smith‘s Tronic imprint) under their belt. “Stardust” and its remix by Dave Pezzner have already been released on a Street King teaser EP which gave only in minuscule taste of what’s to expected.  From the profound clarity of their amazing baselines, to the snaps of their percussion to the sexy, floor groovy tempos of their flat out deep 4/4 singles like those mentioned above or “Sunshine & Mosquitos,” to the dope chillout efforts of “Down Town”or “Plastic Town,” these guys get that simplicity is the key to an amazing production, and they certainly have the skills to prove it. This is a real artist album full of diverse sounds and styles – ALL playable in one form or another, at one venue or another, making them ones to listen to closely now and to watch even closer in the future.
