Before his debut studio full-length, Dubbyman racked up a remarkable discography of dance singles and remixes. He has been away for a little while, but his new 10-tracker album is the perfect tool for him to make his anticipated return. “Deep is dead” is a fascinating mix of organic and synthetic, past and present, smoothness and eclectic, darkness and brightness.  The Spanish producer has veered away from those dub-heavy and dark atmospheric deep stylings, and instead has ventured into much classic house and musically territory.  Almost all songs are soaked in warm chords, dreamy leads and gripping melodies. Dubbyman also offers an immense and stunning roster of credits and guest musicians such as Kuniyuki Takahashi, Leo Gunn and George Btp aka Allstarr Motomusic, just to mention a few.

Albuquerque's Plastik People continues to be the leading bastion for hard swinging garage house in the Deep South. This time label boss Marc Cotterell has linked up with Dominic Balchin as Tuff Vibes to bring the classically informed heat to the people who just can't get enough of that warm, soulful sound.  "Leave Me Cold" does the absolute opposite of its title thanks to the oodles of piano, organ and more melodic flexing besides. "Jazzy '99" is a more accurate guide with its sassy sax licks and vibing chords, and then "Rhythm Of The Vibe" pushes the tempo up for a purely dancefloor minded workout.

Luvbug Recordings is back with another deep n groovy 3 track Beauty!     A brand new EP from Nathan G & James Chappell, 'Blockwork' reflects the gritty moods and grooves they absorbed at "Sunday Church!"    To kick off - Dust of Dawn is a nostalgic deep house music throwback with echoes of vinyl dust and the tangible warmth of a Berlin summer dawn.   Next up 'Blockwork' is inspired by the strong, meditative style of dance birthed within the techno culture, characterized by blocky, rhythmic movements with aerobic aesthetics in industrial spaces. While Panorama Blues recalls the fresh optimism, hedonistic pleasure and wistful yearning that encompasses a long and hypnotic dance session at PB.
