Following a strong 2020 in which the label released acclaimed EPs from Piers Kirwan, Cyclonix, Lay-Far and a collective of rising stars based in the Italian city of Bologna, we have decided to kick-start 2021 with a first label outing from Terry Tester.

This Danish producer, is no newcomer, having first come to the attention of distinguished listeners as part of production duo The Works at the tail end of the 2010s. Since then, he’s delivered a handful of admired EPs for Mixed Ape Music, Copenhagen Underground Posse and, most recently, Creak Inc.

Given his quietly impressive track record, it’s no surprise that he has delivered the goods on his Boogie Café debut. The EP’s four original tracks bristle with hazy melodiousness, combining dusty musical motifs and deliciously deep sounds, with tried-and-tested dancefloor grooves.

He sets the tone with ‘Dubby’, an ultra-deep and hypnotic late-night excursion in which echoing, soulful vocal snippets and rich riffs rise above a raw, analogue bassline and fizzing drums, before offering an even more atmospheric outing in the shape of the bass-heavy broken beat/deep house fusion of ‘Breeze Unlimited’, where jazzy piano solos and spacey chords catch the ear.

Terry's love of grimy old drum machines and weighty analogue basslines is explored further on ‘Nite Mood’, a locked-in number that remains deep and alluring thanks to some spell-binding chords and yearning musical flourishes, while the bustling and busy ‘Hangover Jam’ boasts some brilliant percussion programming, whistling synthesizer melodies and one of his most impactful basslines to date. To round off the EP, Boogie Café label partner Chezz delivers a sublime interpretation of ‘Hangover Jam’, successfully re-imagining the track as a deep, melodious, jazz-funk flavoured broken beat jam.

Boogie Café continue their incredible form by offering up three tracks of deep house goodness from Aroop Roy. The A side ‘Good Times’ sweeps in with a bumping house cut, laced with feverish vocal cutups whilst the B side hits first with a hazy, deep synth stab groover, and finishes on a blistering, afro-tinged slice of funk fuel

Fast becoming the golden boy of a new generation of broken beat producers, Danvers shows no signs of slowing up with this latest release on Boogie Café.
Four cuts of soulful broken beat tinged deepness, kicking off with ‘Desire’ a double bass groover interweaved with hazy pianos and chopped up vocals. On remix duties, Harry Wolfman lays down a woozy, sun-drenched, emotive rework. Awash with jazzy keys, dreamy synths and tight drum loops offering up the perfect soundtrack to kick back to, beachside, Pina Colada in hand…
On the B side, Danvers is back at the helm with ‘Can’t Let Him Know’ an afro tinged, bruked up jam, heavy on the live bass, syncopated synths & vocal litanies. Last up, ‘Someone To Count On’ is a crunchy, late night, soiree coupling a monstrous bass synth, crushed up drum hits and sleazed out pads.
Heaters a plenty on this one, taking Danvers one step closer to world Danvination.

Rotterdam producer Chezz with 3 hot new Modern Boogie/ Deep house tracks, Side A Bossa has a warm synth lick with a driving broken beat that really kicks on a system, funked up even further with a lush soulful vocal sample. Flip it over and Lazy is sure to get the taste buds going with a recognisable and infectious baseline hook, again lush warm synth chords on this. Finally Lone delivers sweet mid tempo house goodness, again driven by lovely warm chord changes and subtle little samples. We are very excited about this EP, following from and earlier release from Chezz (BC003) which went straight to number 1 in the Juno house and disco charts and quickly sold out.

The Chordz EP brings it with 3 hot new modern Boogie tracks. Label Hero Newman opens the release with the title track 'Chordz' - a synth-fuelled dancefloor banger, reminiscent of Harvey Sutherland's recent work. Flip it over and Ourra (aka Simon Tappenden aka 'Pop Out N Play') brings us a truly Tropical treat reminiscent of Palm Trees, Pina Coladas and 80's Miami sunsets. Last but not least, Keyboardist for Brian Ellis, Adam Chini plays 'Horizons of Funk'... a lush down tempo synth funk number bringing the EP to the perfect close.
