Prince Club Demento Mori Mix Nov ’011 by Prince Club

Guess we know now what we will be dancing to all these dark months ahead, huge track from Zombie Disco Squad. “Piano Man” will be out on Made To Play October 24th.

Tightness from the homies in Prince Club, “Kool Aid” can be found on their recent “Ice-T EP” released on Made To Play.

Following the hazy fever dream disco of their last release on Exploited, Homework throw on a couple polo shirts, pull their socks all the way up and step out onto the courts for some Wimbledon inspired tennis tech-house action for Made To Play.

Okay, no more painfully made journalistic tennis metaphors. Instead, let’s talk about how the sample from The Isely Brother’s 1964 track “Take Me In Your Arms” sounds so utterly at home here amidst the track’s sun drenched piano riffs. The album track is almost double the length of the video cut, which gives this one just enough time to ride out the powerful bassline, reminiscent of the euphoria that you get listening to Daft Punk’s “Discovery” album while running into the ocean naked.

Without a doubt, this is classy summer beach party music arriving at the perfect moment.

Rally Racquet Club will be released on the 20th of June, with a remix by Oliver $ that’s almost in danger of outshining the original. You can preview the whole EP on Made To Play’s soundcloud page.

Two reasons to lust after the new Round Table Knights remix EP:

1) Limited 300 copy 12″ vinyl pressing looking so crispy.
2) Erm, the music on afformentioned beautiful EP.

For example, L-Vis 1990 & The Neon Dreams ascend “Paparussi” to a previously unattainable level of vibes, and adding Javeon McCarthy’s fantastic vocals to the track is a brilliant decision that makes it sound immediately more organic and intimate.

Calling them the new Fleetwood Mac of the dance music world may be misinterpreted as an insult, but it’s anything but: the professionalism of recording quality (presumably Cubic Zirconia’s Nick Hook at work) and the pacing of the track never falters as it grows to a shimmeringly bright climax, and the final product feels polished and exciting in a way that few other releases lately have been able to achieve.

Comparatively, Mercury and Homework have a lot to live up to with their renditions of “Say What?!” – but both bring something special to the plate. Mercury adds on some soft diva humming under their escalating and falling house stabs, and Homework forgoes the vocals altogether, twisting the track into something unrecognizably different, but catchily enough that it doesn’t even matter.

Out on Made To Play later this month.

MTP039 Round Table Knights – Remixes (VINYL) by Made to Play

Dedicated to all the DJs worldwide who’re comfortable with being “just up here fucking around”, Oliver $’s new jam for Made to Play sub-label Play It Down is effortlessly addictive and employs a sample guaranteed to make anyone smile.

Sampling one of Moodymann’s inspirational impromptu DJ set speeches and employing a simple, thumping bassline, it narrates the more intimate moments of being out in a club: The DJ crooning about what tracks they’re going to play next, yelled banter from the audience, scratched records, the pause where the same record gets played twice over because “we’re still on this muthafuckin record”, and the steadfast refusal to stop playing when the club owners start yelling at you.

Limited to 200 vinyl copies, it’s a great homage to the atmosphere and feeling of intimate house music when it feels like something’s going on that’s bigger and more powerful than the sum of everyone in the club.

Out soon on Play It Down, stream it from Soundcloud below:
