Uptown Funk Empire - The Remix Strikes Back! (Soulab)
Four tunes 'N.O.W', 'Boogie', 'Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now', and 'You've Got To Have Freedom' featured in various remixes which total this to eighteen tracks. Make your picks!
Uraz Kurt - Five Smoking Turkish Grooves (Soulab)
After doing some remix works Turkish Uraz debuts with his own production featuring five different tunes all of Nu-soul and jazz inspiration. A quality laid back extended player with my preferred being the broken house 'She Doesn't Wanna See' and the modern soul 'Missed Connect'.
Gordheaven and Juliano feat. Caysoul Muziq - Move Your Body, DJ Fale and Lei' Metola - Kudala Ndikuvela feat. Pule and Andile (Peng Africa)
Peng Africa has to be my label of the year. Anyways two great release with both featuring a great deal of versions to choose from.
Gianluca Calabrese - Rosarno Buisness (Lupara Records)
A two track extended player. I like M.r.Gabibu Bloody Sound and its nice tribal rhythms.
VTOTHED - NYE Space Sessions Pt. 1 (White Music)
Fourteen minutes of trip into space from the original. Harder sounds in the Edward remix.
Una - In My House (POJI)
After a break of over one year DJ Pope is back with his POJI label and a release by Una. Three remixers; Pope himself plus the legendary Hippie Torrales, and H and H Soul Survivors offer a total of nine versions. Take your pick.
Elements of Life feat. Josh Milan - Children of the World Louie Vega Remix (Vega Records)
Not much to say when you have Louie Vega and Josh Milan involved in something. Absolute perfection!
Ron Trent - Raw Footage (Electric Blue)
Chicago legend Ron Trent debuts his new Electric Blue label with his fifth album. Twelve tracks of atmospheric tribal African deep rhythms.
Gabriel Poso - Roots of Soul Remix EP (INFRACom!)
Five tunes retouched by different remixes for Gabriel Poso. Good signature names too, in this remix package from Osunlade Yoruba, to AtJazz, Ezel, and Italian Dodi Palese.
Cottam - Relapse (Aus Music)
I Remember something Instant, for the bass line and rhythm.
Sek - Vice Lords EP (Apparel Music)
A four different old school infected extended player from the Italian Apparel label. I like the bit gospel infected title track 'Vice Lords'. But do not disregard the others.
Walker Barnard - Sweatshop Spaceship (Serialism Records / WAS)
Three versions for the title track plus 'The Long Count' and 'Mothershipwreck'. The bass line plus the voice of Jaime Graham of the title track is amazing in its original or the Extended Edit.
SoulPhiction - Drama Queen (Philpot records)
Two different tunes the title track, and 'Soul Brother No.2'. Both featuring the Detroit influence in them.
Rainer Trueby - Compost Black Label #92 Remixes by Session Victim, Dima Studitsky, Sello, Chocolate Garage Productions (Compost Records)
The original two tracks here; 'Welcome to Our World' and 'Jeck' where released about a year ago. Now they get the remix treatment. I like Sello remix of Jeck.
Christopher Rau - In The Water (Aim)
A four track extended player which follows its earlier vinyl release. I like most the jazz piano old school groove infected title track.
Robert Owens - Sacrifice Kai Alce Distinctive Remixes (NDATL Muzik)
A licence from Compost to a release from 2010 in the album Art and produced by Larry Heard. Kai Alce gives his touch for his high quality label in five versions, two of which are instrumentals.
GKF Presents 100th Official Release - Deep Album (Gotta Keep Faith)
Gotta Keep Faith celebrates its first century with two albums a Deep. and a Soulful featuring some of its greatest tunes. Each album features 21 tunes all different at a very cheap price. But the quality is prominent in both.

Choices - November 2012
Four Seasons Volume 1 (Got2Go)
A limited vinyl only release to be pressed in 250 copies only for this Got2Go second installment. Two tunes by Whim-Ee 'Wheres Your Pants' and Anaxander 'You've Got' both supplied with an extra remix. Whim-Ee's tune is my favorite what is a tribute to Chicago harder sounds, reminding me of mid nineties Cajmere.
Glenn Underground / Strictly Jaz Unit - In With The New / Deep in My Mind (Strictly Jaz Unit)
Two magnificent tracks from Chicago man Glenn Underground in his known Afro Jazz rhythms in a space of couple months.
Don Carlos Presents The Aquanauts (Irma Records)
The seventh album from Carlo Troya aka Don Carlos, who has been producing great music since 1987. The Aquanauts features eight different tracks with extra version for Karma, Stepping Upon Mars, and two for Dancing Into Freestyle.
Taron-Trekka - The Trekkas Shak Phase EP (Freude am Tanzen)
An unusual label in my list. Four track extended player. I like the atmospheric African sounding Okoso Shak, but Safari is also interesting.
Joe Drive - Junopolis EP (4lux Black)
4 Lux Black is always a label on my high attention list. This is a four track extended player, with an extra version of Tefnut by Tyrell.
A'Merika Vera - Winter Madness (Recycle)
The artist name translates from Italian to True American. Original Mix please. Thank you.
Mellow Baku and The Friday People - Make It Brighter (Atjazz Record Company)
One of the good things of Digital download purchase is that you can choose a version of one tune and stick to it. But some records make good enough to make you choose more. Atjazz Remix for your peak time moments, A New Funky Generation for more warm situations.
Funkycan - We Were Raised To Beleive That Someday We Were All Gonna Have Great Beards (Ava)
I bought this for the extremely long story telling title. Untitled 1 which was produced with Damiano von Erckert is my preferred.
Unbroken Dub - Checkpoint EP (Delsin Records)
Dark and deep three track extended player. I like the more underground Det Special.
Christopher Rau - Two (Smallville)
The title clearly states this is his second album, which follows the first 'Asper Clouds' released in 2010 on the same high regarded German label. Eight varied deep house tracks to enjoy.
Vahagn - Shades and Shadows EP (Groovement)
Three tune extended player with the title track having vocal collaboration by Jerry the Cat. I'd say Vahagn sound has improved since his previous mid-summer release.
Jus-Ed - 50Ty and Lookin Good (Underground Quality)
Eleven tracks of pure bliss from Jus-Ed latest seventh album presented on his famed Underground Quality imprint. Track, tech, and house are all featured. Available on CD or download.
Cristo - Patterns (Superficially Deep)
Eleven track album from Cristo. Majority of the tracks are string and African rhythms, a pattern which works well in many dance floors nowadays. I like the track Rite.
Soulful House Selections Vol.3 Selected by Fiso Da Costa (Sci-fi Productions)
Sci-fi does it again with this third installment selected by Fiso Da Costa. Ten tracks by different artists in soulful Latin house vibes. Take your pick.
Tronicsole: I Heard Deep: Blue (Tronicsole)
Fifteen different tracks compilation. I like Bugz In The Attic 'Old School Jamz'.
A limited vinyl only release to be pressed in 250 copies only for this Got2Go second installment. Two tunes by Whim-Ee 'Wheres Your Pants' and Anaxander 'You've Got' both supplied with an extra remix.

Cleveland - Mid Sun EP (battibatti)
BattiBatti keeps on bringing a good release in each number. Considering we are at twelve this is quite an achievement. I play both the tracks in this extended player, a lot!
Third Ear Re:Imagined (Third Ear Recordings)
An always upfront label presents this extended player with four classic tunes remade. My favorite is the XDB remix of Benjamin Brunn 'No Kicks'. Another interesting remix is the Upperground Orchestra take on Theo Parish 'Falling Up'.
Chris Carrier - Planete Euphorique (Robsoul)
Three instrumental tracks titled in the first three alphabet letters. I like the nineties New York sounding B.
Monocles - Loud, John-Carol feat Gisela Gold - Just Saying (Peng Africa)
Peng Africa makes it a busy month releasing two good records. The choice is also vast in both issues with Loud having ten mixes, and the more recent John-Carol seven versions.
Vedagor - Untitled EP (Burek)
Four all untitled innovative tracks. I usually prefer even numbers but two and four work best for me here.
Grooveman Spot - Paradox (Jazzy Spot)
A very innovative album which fuses new wave and Italo disco eighties sound in more modern deep rhythms. Fourteen tracks to choose from with two tracks having vocal collaborations by Hollie Smith and Isaac Aesili, and Capitol A.
Marcellus Pittman - Pieces (Sound Signature)
Ten tracks by one of the most innovative all time producers. Mr.Pittman basically reinvents bass lines, kicks and rhythms in each tune for this mostly electronic instrumental release. Note the real label is Unirhythm with digital distribution handled by Sound Signature.
The Zohar - Brooklyn EP (Tenderpark)
I like a lot the track Dog Day, but Brooklyn 9:30 AM is also worth a listen.
Elina Monova - Something Special (Rest)
The voice of Elina is really something special on the four minute of Give Me The Night.
Martin Iveson - 13.10.11 13.11.11 (Atjazz Record Company)
A good release in Afro jazz vibes. Edit thanks to the Deep House Page forum peeps. The title digits are dates, two important ones for Martin, that is all I can say.
Idrissa Sissoko - Lopilopilo (Offerings Recordings)
A six track mini album all in African rhythms, plus extra remix for Yiri and two for Wari.
DJ Mtshepang - Ubizo (Deeper Shades Recordings)
Lars Behrenroth label is always on my radar, and here it presents ten versions to choose from. I like the Shaheedemo Colorful Instrumental the most.
Carter Cook - Because of You (Houseworx)
The original version title track features the over abused Obama lyrics in background a nice vocalist saying Because of You and a very Chandler style groove. It works.

Lilac Jeans Scifi mix is the one for me, but Gumzito mix deserves also high attention.
various artists - We Are VR (voyeurhythm)
A tribute to Voyeurhythm by four artists; Ben Sun, Francesco Inferno Orchestra, HMC, and Tyson Ballard.
And.Id - Black Mamba (mobilee records)
And.Id and Band version of Girl takes me on a Latin spin and into Summer vibes, without loosing harmony.
Session Victom - The Haunted House of House Pt Three (Delusions of Grandeur)
Threer tracks, two of which in nu funk disco sound. If you like it deep and soul go on the track Light Scent of Decay.
Jin Choi - A Thousand Whales of Love (Private Gold)
Last year a couple of very good releases made Jin Choi into my to look list. Move to today and Jin releases a varied thirteen track album plus an extra mix of Circles. Not all to my taste but listen and take your picks.
Alice Kuntz - Revaler Blues (Minimal Kidz)
Not my usual label, but this release deserves attention. Both tracks are good, though I like the jazz influenced Two Scotch Eggs. Excuse Me!
DJ Aakmael - Unxpozd Sessions EP (Liberate)
Aakmael is called the new boy from New York, and not for nothing. Three different tracks, I like the more soulful Movin On.
Gene King Presents Tantra Zawandi and Dana Byrd - Out of the Blue (Shines Records)
Nine different mixes to choose from. I like the Koe Rizla mix.
Vedomir - Vedomir (Dekmantel)
An album with thirteen tracks. Mostly of US techno inspiration, but in the pile you find more deep house tunes.
In The Dark: The Soul of Detroit (Still Music)
The title says it all, and the names of the artists who make the twelve amazing tracks just make you understand, the revolution the motor city of the World has brought to electronic music in the past, and current times.
The Rotating Assembly - Natural Aspirations (Sound Signature)
Originally released on CD in 2004, and now finally gets a digital re-issue.
A four different tracks player. The short Arties Mood of just over two minutes is cool and funky. Pity it is so short.
Saluda - Deep Cut (Hizou Deep Rooted Music)

Choices - April 2012
Dan Mela - I Don't Know Why (What Ever Not)
After an absence of quite some time with an original production, Dan Mela is back with this plus a new label. What Ever Not is release number one of this new adventure from Dan and his studio partner Dodi Palese which features two super tunes. Absolutely not to miss.
Bon and Rau - Morning Funk (Smallville)
A label Smallville and a name that of Christopher Rau that are always a guarantee. Two good tracks with the usual Chicago touch from Rau. I like more the title track.
Story - Story 006 (Story)
An obscure label, in its number six releases. Two deep tracks with a Detroit groove.
Andy Campton - Devon's Deepest EP (Peng)
Andy and his Peng label are always a high quality look out. Here is four songs with an unusual eclectic and electric groove production, plus a dub mix of the track Gold. Vocal collaborations are by Ladybird, Rowan, Oluwa, and Rainy Payne. The one of Rainy titled What Am I is my preferred where the singer reminds me a lot of Ursula Rucker.
Lucas Ferro, Brandub - Duplex, Vol.1 (Depto Rec)
Two tracks from these two artists. I like the latin deep by Brandub.
Flohil and Smith - Istanbul Nights (Phat Elephant Recordings)
Turkey continues to bring dance music producers, and here is an album of this duet. Featuring twelve tracks mostly in deep house it is okay in some areas, and good in others. I like Slow Down.
Nicholas - Love Message (Home Taping is Killing Music)
I listened to this when the Italian Nicholas put it on his SoundCloud more or less about a year ago. Release was never confirmed at the time but I made over a season going on his Cloud page and listening to Love Message. Now it is finally released, and if you did not understand it this is a tribute to the unique and timeless Love is the Message by MFSB.
Bad Cop Bad Cop - Best Of Best Of (KilleKill)
Five tracks in total. I like the old school feel Chitroit with says it all on what kind of sound to expect.
Rio Padice - Moon Phases EP (Housewax)
Housewax continues to bring very good releases, and the number three brings even more guarantees on the future direction of this label, thanks to the good Rio Padice.
various artists - Four Suns (Deep Explorer Music)
All good four tracks by Ernie and Above Smoke, but Funny Break has been on my wish list for ages.
The Aphotic Segments - Vol. 1 (Sistrum Recordings)
Sistrum is the label of Detroit native Patrice Scott, and here is an extended player with four different artists and tracks. Russian Anton Zap deep Sunshine really puts you in an other dimension if you get my meaning.
Soulful House Volume 2 - Hot Top 10 Unmixed (Sci-fi Productions)
A total of ten tracks from various artists, all in an African and Soulful deep vibe, Take your picks.

Tom Ellis - One by One (Good Ratio Music)
A very interesting and good four track extended player. I like 'Thing One' and the always changing '1153'.
Sierra Sam - Kissed You in the Water (Nordik Net Records)
Dixie Yurie remix is a deep bass affair which reminds us how a real underground room should be. There is also another track in this called 'Circles', and another remix from Jin Choi.
Rodrigo - Jazzy Summertime (Apparel Music)
The atmosphere of the original mix which is twelve minutes long takes me to another place and time in the future. This is Summer 2012 for you and all of us.
Seuil - Sub Boogie Drama (Karat Records)
The title track is the one to go for. Jazz and groove in the pure sense.
Monocles and Slez feat Mxolisi Indogeni and Maestro Di Casa - So Fine (Peng Africa)
PM Project remix wraps it up nice for me in a good mixture of African soulful grooves and mellow deep melodies.
RotaryDisco76 - Swordfish Going EP (Strictly Groove Recordings)
I like the different original mix of Swordfish, but if you are into more groove check also the remix of Salvatore Principato and Sean Bee.
Vince Watson - Every Soul Needs a Guide (everysoul)
An eleven track album which is a good cross over of melodies from Jazz, to Detroit strings, and ambient sounds all featuring a broken African rhythm pattern. Take your picks.

various artists - Chilli Mint Music (Chilli Mint Music)
Four tracks from deep to tech house. My attention goes to All is One by Whim-ee, vinyl released in the first week of 2012 and now available also in digital. This latest of the Brazilian French reminds me of end nineties West coast label sound Naked Music. What do you think?
Social Memory Complex - Social Memory Complex EP (Housewax)
After the first superb extended player with four different artists and tracks, Housewax goes to release number two with Alex Danilov. The Russian presents four tracks all of a Chicago US inspiration. I like a lot Feel the Dog.
Toby Tobias - One Night on Mare Street (Quintessentials)
Straight on point with the remix of one favorite producer from recent months; Ugly Drums aka Stefano Baldo.
DJ Fudge and Ezel feat. Mani Hoffmann - Call my Name (Tejal Records)
African, and soulful house. I like the instrumental mix, which gives more credit to the well done emotive simple arrangement.
Lady Blacktronica - Pieces of my Puzzle (Little Angel Records)
In less to a year the other Detroit lady presents another album. The puzzle pieces here are nineteen tracks all with a deep house touch with external influence coming from African, Disco, Dub, Funk, Hip Hop, Rnb, and Soul music.
Montana Falcons - Montana Falcons EP (Yo Records)
Forever Classic has that magic flute which reminds of mid nineties Eric Kupper. If you like slow house look also into Glosno.
El Prevost - Putting Out Fires EP (Third Ear Recordings)
Four tracks extended player. The industrial percussive title track is the one for me.
Fantasy feat. Althea Mc. Queen - Daily Life (Spirit Sounds Records Revolution)
The voice of this legend of house music is always an attention grabber. I like the Instrumental mix which gratefully still features vocal snippets.
Marvin Dash - Workshop 14 (Workshop)
Three untitled advanced underground house tracks. Trip and dark.
Stephan Laubner - Unreleased Experiments 2 (Something)
STL - Things from the Basement (Something)
Many say my music is Underground etc. Stephan Laubner aka STL, manages just that. Real underground music with an impressive research into new sounds.
Visions of Musicians - Gogo Music 10th Anniversary Collections Vol.4 (GOGO Music)
Dubs for the Clubs - Gogo Music 10th Anniversary Collection Vol.2 (GOGO Music)
The ten year birthday collections continue. Ten tracks in two releases here of which I made my picks. You can do the same.
various artists - The MKappella, Lost (Delsin records)
Thankfully the 1991 released MK, The MKappella has found a re-release. Unlike the many I am not a big fan of Marc Kinchen, but this is definitely a master piece of deep house music in my books.
