Finnebassen had his 15 minutes of fame on BBC Radio 1 last week – and recommended Chasing Kurts, three guys from German, as some new talent to look out for. So of course, we were straight on the case checking these guys out. And what a top recommendation, we found some quality deep house productions. The first track we’ve pulled out is from their most recent EP, In The Air. It’s a slow, deep house special with some quality vocals. Second is the one Finnebassen played, it’s called Reflecting Love and been kicking around for about a year now. Get involved – these are great!

Came across this little beauty through French label On The Fruit last week. This modern disco, funky number is produced by a Russian duo SoHight and comes with a remix from Danny, one half of The C90s. Pretty damn catchy! Dropped yesterday, so grab your copy here.

Big up to Dave Allison for helping us cure a terrible hangover! This is exactly what the doctor ordered, 1 hour of slow-mo, laid-back disco tunes. Includes some new & unreleased goodness. Go on, enjoy some well earned fizz time!

Fritz Kalkbrenner brings us his second album Sick Travellin. How can anyone possibly be sick of travelling?! ;-) Album name aside, these thirteen tracks are quite simply an eclectic variety of genres. He takes us on a journey through Soul, Funk, Hip Hop and House, all produced in his own distinctive style.
I’ve included a couple of snippets below, but you can listen to the rest here and grab your copy here. Fizzilicious!

Need Want bring us New York super talent, Kim Ann Foxman for their next fine release. Kim has been working as part of neo-disco sensation Hercules and Love Affair and released two albums with the group. She is now venturing into her solo productions – and they sound pretty damn good.
Two originals & two remixes, we are treated to some luscious dreamy house vibes. Hard to pick a favourite as they are all unique, but we’ve been listening to the Populette remix a lot, along with Hypnotic Dance. It drops on Need Want on Monday.

Big love for Tim Sweeney & his Beats In Space radio show run out of New York. Over the last few months he has been inviting some of our favourite producers into his studio to spin some top tunes. We’ve heard mixes from Bicep, Maxxi Soundsystem, TEED, DJ Harvey to name just a few. Up next we have OOFT! and Holy Ghost – two great interviews & mixes. Get involved. Fizzilicious!

We’ve all heard of PillowTalk through their housed-up reworks of soul gems that they put out for free a few months back & spread like wildfire across the web. They’ve now been asked by Navid Izadi, a new talent also coming out of San Francisco, to input to his EP Ain’t Got The Time.
It’s a 5 track release, but we have to pull out one track, which, for us, sits above the rest. The track is called Too Long, in which PillowTalk produce a mellow trip, adding some silky smooth vocals from Ryan William’s. You can check out the full release here. Drops on October 29th.
And for those of you living in London, you can catch PillowTalk along with Wolf & Lamb at Loft Studios this Friday. Grab a ticket here.
