Hot on the heels of his solo debut “Berberian Nights EP”, Larry Houl brings a moody summer warmth over to Red Ember this holiday season with three cuts of purist deep house. Harking back to the sound of our beloved Chicago House originators, the Frenchman squarely shoots for the heart and soul of dance-floor romantics.

Perth, capital of Western Australia, sits where the Swan River meets the southwest coast. Sandy beaches line its suburbs giving purpose to hot summer days, but after sundown, the city is where it's at... if you know where to look. It's possible that this double-life is what inspired the deep, melodic, futuristic sounds of one of Australia's most mysterious electronic dance music labels of the 90's - Red Ember Records. Helmed by Ewan Jansen and along with Justin Zerbst (with contributions from Steb Sly and Andrew Carpenter) this micro label powered through the latter half of the 1990's with a slew of back-room productions; barely existent releases that were mainly pressed onto poly-plastic discs and hand distributed at a handful of near mythical live performances and local record spots in their hometown. Suffice to say it's the unique quality of the music contained on these lathes (chiefly produced by Jansen and Zerbst) and the sheer rarity of the physical items that has driven Red Ember firmly into the minds of vinyl fiends the globe over. Deep. That is one word that can be safely used when discussing the sonic bounty contained on a Red Ember record. Ewan Jansen's loose, harmonic style sits perfectly next to Justin Zerbst's faster paced, frenetic Techno sounds. The two's styles complimenting each other perfectly. The two producers have their very own unique vision of what House and Techno are and "Embers Only: Selected tracks 1997 - 1999" offers an overview of a selection of very carefully curated tracks taken from a handful of their early EP's and lathes.

Non EXCL.12" on Red Amber Australia

Nearly 20 years ago, a little label started by releasing a handful of lathes containing stories of life in a sleepy city called Perth in Western Australia. Inspired by the ocean and the river during long hot summers; Red Ember's humble pursuit is deep expression via the practice of analog synthesis.
Ewan Jansen resurfaces to take the helm again on the 3rd vinyl release… an aquatic house music tale that is equally lost at sea as it is freely swimming in the ocean.

Tracklist
A1. Aqua Libre , A2. Plankton
B1. Freckles , B2. Castel
