Continuing to fly the flag for worldwide soulful dance-floor sounds, Jitwam’s globe-hopping label The Jazz Diaries unveil their latest signing, Detroit-based veteran producer Brian 'Javonntte' Garrett. Supplying body moving frequencies since the late nineties, Javonntte began playing piano at age 15 and honed his craft on tour with Aretha Franklin. A collaborator of Amp Fiddler and Luke Solomon, he has previously released on labels such as Eglo Records, Lumberjacks In Hell, Traxx Underground, Defected and Waella’s Choice. His debut on The Jazz Diaries see’s Garrett turn in five hazy, funk-drenched, party-moving jams. From the crunchy midi fanfare of the record’s opener “Reggietune”, through to the blissed-out sweeping synths of “Outerbound”, the EP packs a punch, keeping it’s rock solid, groove-laden sensibilities throughout. Javonntte even throws in a jacked up, Detroit-style reinterpretation of Christopher Cross’s classic track “Ride Link The Wind” (the EP’s first single, due for release April 9th). Trust, this one won’t leave your record bag. More

Waella’s Choice return with their fifth release, made in Detroit, remixed in Melbourne and London.
Adding to a growing stable of leading house artists who have already released on the London label, Detroit singer, producer (and dancer) Javonntte presents Drumma EP, traversing the deep and soulful spectrum with two original productions.
The title track has the same instant magnetism as Hanna’s ‘Stranger’, which helped inaugurate Waella’s Choice in 2017. ‘Jazzpianodance’ takes a more broken approach, incorporating Javonntte’s love for jazz fusion. Something that would have felt right at home in the old Co-Op dances at plastic people.
The B-side presents remixes from two young producers with a bright future. Melbourne-raised and now London-based, Crown Ruler member Winters follows up his 2018 debut for Parallel People with a low-slung RnB version. Touching Bass family Romaal Kultan ups the tempo with a weightier sucker-punch of breaks and broken percussion, primed for peak time impact.

Burek family welcomes Detroit house don Javonntte into their circle with four infectious house bangers spread across the whole spectrum of the genre. This record has something for each part of the night, from the easy mood setting vibes to soulful bangers and straight up jacking peak time tracks that will make you sweat.
Tomorrow’, the opening cut, is the best example of the latter and the track’s vocal sample “strictly underground” is well earned. This pure head-bang house track will give you a run for your money. A side is concluded with ‘Journey’, a proper soulful house track which keeps all of its energy in spite of a slightly more subtle approach.
‘No One Like You’ is the first one on the flip and is a prime example of just how much soul and depth can a house banger have and Javonntte excels here both as a producer and a vocalist. Closing track ‘Enter The Disco’ is a slower, disco-sampled jam, perfect for that in-between time in the club when the action’s about to happen.

From his HOME studio in Detroit, Javonntte gives another nice emotion. As well as having collaborated with amazing musicians like Trinidadian Deep, Brawther, Patrick Gibin, Mark De Clive-Love, Nikki O, Andres, Amp Fiddler and many others ... He was part of dancer for Aretha Franklin live. This new release made by Le Disque Records label from Verona, has the intent to get excited the dancefloor all around the world and the hearts of Soulful House lovers. Don't miss it !!

Keep Your Mind Alive is the LPH debut for Rydm Sectors, an Italian duo that bridges classic New York house and UK garage and lightens the resultant hybrid with well-placed sparkly synth work, jazzy drum fills, swanky piano licks. Nightclub music that’s been genetically modified to be just as functional and fun there as it is laying on a breezy beach, soft white sand your pillow, crashing high-tide waves reminder of the nature around you. More

Four tracks sure to get some antifreeze in your veins, prevent you from turning to a brick of ice during this brutal winter. Philip Budny is a Berlin-based producer who’s making his LPH debut here with Somnambulism, an easy, buoyant grip of tracks that’ll lift your heart to the heavens as they keep your feet shuffling. Starry-eyed house. Packaged in a custom graph paper sleeve. More

Nutcracker. We concluded 2018 with a gentle bed of ethereal, chilly ambient so we could rocket into 2019 with something especially loud, brash, pummeling. Here is ?Lights Out?, a four-track EP by Viers, a.k.a. LK, proprietor of Hokkaido Dance Club and purveyor of surgically-precise, brutal techno, riotous electro, jacked house. If this doesn’t wake you up, nothing will. More

Summertime funtime courtesy of... someone from somewhere. Who know? “Liwando” is Madchester rave culture with a disco underbelly and a bongo and conga fervor. Jacques Renault’s mix somehow manages to cram a few more sticks of dynamite into the mix, beefing up the funkiness quotient (that bass!) and embellishing the breakdowns (that horn!) “Didn’t I (Acid Version)” is definitely the afterward to “Liwando,” a joyous, soaring encore that has, yes, a touch of acid folded in. More

Keita Sano returns to Let’s Play House with another album, the physical iteration of which we’re presenting as two separately-packed 12-inch EPs. First is Kubo, a sharp and cutting collection of four house ditties that are equal parts eccentrically off-kilter and warmly welcoming, esoterically out there and remarkably familiar, in a way only Sano can pull off. More

With Totsu , we complete our two-part Keita Sano album. This one, like Kubo before, is a fiery maelstrom of house and disco dance floor destruction that has a dusting of that impossible-to-place Keita Sano absurdity. A magnetic sprint through MPC-fueled workouts, trance-y space-outs, and loopy hypnotizers. Together, Kubo and Totsu make up O¯totsu , an eight-track long-player that will be made available as a digital release as well as a special limited-edition vinyl double-pack More

Lost Loops & Broken Tapes Vol.2 treads the lines between smudged-up disco, raw house and french-touch. Don’t think about that too much, just let the music work its magic… J&AG join the likes of Adesse Versions, Project Pablo and Seb Wildblood on Let’s Play House, the ever-dynamic New York label operated by Nik Mercer and Jacques Renault. More

Three raw, tough, cutting originals from a Brooklyn borough brother only known as Trey. All tracky and dynamic, blunt and deliberate, and most definitely made for clubs that exist on the fringes, in the seedier, stranger corners of the world. To be played during the small hours of the night. More

Wrapping up the summer with a bit of a 90s throwback number by St. David, ?Fools Jam?. The EP opens with the the titual track, a crunchy, crisp deep house burner, and moves on, with “Night Lovers,” into speedier, smoother floor-filling fodder that’s all wiggling, weaving pads and synth leads. The B is a little gentler and more contemplative, but no less melodious; “Dream It (Emphasi Mix)” is a playful yet gauzy piano-led tune that serenades the listener, and “La Luna (Spiritual Dub)” is a tranquil ditty that serenely glides off into the distance. A calming, mellow conclusion to a particularly emotive 12-inch. More

The follow-up to last year’s LPHWHTD! As with the last one, this is a collection of tunes from some of our friends and folks already on the label, though these, unlike those, are 100 percent new—not one of the four has been released online or elsewhere yet. Keita Sano, Klubbhuset, Lovers (Harry Benson, formerly of Sisterhood), and Jacques Renault. Easy! More

Who is Chocki Hookon? You probably know him/her/them, but don’t preoccupy yourself with trying to figure out the mystery. Where’s the fun in that!? These tracks were made to make you dance and that’s all you really need to know. Two originals, two remixes by LPH co­head, Jacques Renault. Limited­edition/vinyl­only release More
