a highly regarded producer and musician who used to be in the midst of the NY metro breeding reactor that spectatuclarely revived and modernized disco and italo disco since the turn of the century and added some hotliped live brass to their platters and whose sought after releases under his own appear appear much to rarely dons his house cloak and dagger for 3 sneaky new chapters on story. not wasting any time on unnecessary nicety the a-side track will send up a whole colony of ants right up your pants riding on a steamrolling percussive disco groove garnished with cut up vocals and fx trickery. B2 is another chicago style wedding of disco and house with a jubilant, string backed female vocal snippet tweaked over a heavy groove while the first track on the flip is a subterrenean, groaning dub house affair that reminds of a slowed down John Ciaffone banger. no matter which chapter you jump to here it puts you right into the action.

after 2 years where the old Stories were still being carried around and re-told over and over by the world's discjockey the next mysterious deephouse raconteur finally adds a new tome to the old legend in his own distinctive, unmistakable style: while the narrative is effectively and assuredly driven on by a classical yet forceful 4/4 rhyme structure the vocabulary is more playful, experimental and abstract with melodic fragments evoking pictures of vast, futuristic landscapes and a mood of deep contemplaton and enlightened serenity. another satisfying pageturner More

after keeping quiet for a year the mysterious Story label proves with in 3 chapters that there still remain fresh and exciting yarns in house music worth to be told. and while the story-teller remains anonymous as always he certainly doesnt lack in distinctive style and bravura as he carves out with rich imagination and pointed quill slightly fragile sounding yet carefully interlaced swinging beat structures masterfully lined and intervowen with melancholic organ chordes and sketches of blissed out rhodes melodies.

Another anonymous high priest of the Secret New House World Order, an organisation rumored to clandestinely control and reign supreme dancefloors worldwide, steps up on their Story ( SecreT Order Rocks You ) label with 3 captivating basic, raw yet deep tracks in the best Chicago tradition - a style that over the years proofed itself rather useful for total mind and body dominance. "Feel about" perfectly exposes the simple, always effective ingredients for arresting punters on the floor: a basic jacking beat somewhere around the magical 120bpm range, a almost sedative walking bassline, swinging organ chords and vocal snippets that command your butt to shake, a subtle synth wave that will seep into your mind and clear it of all wordly thoughts and then after a while wild swirling hi-hats that will send you in uncontrolable convulsions. "Gute Aussichten" on the flip takes over from there with a harder punching groove and a slightly eerie atmosphere before a warm shower of synth chords hits the euphoria switch in your subconscious while the skippy stuttering groove of "return" will have dancers will-lessly twitching like electric eels. resistance is futile, just give yourself up to the groove!

another main player of the current elite of deephouse producers makes an anonymous but definitely not impersonal appearance on the ever great Story imprint. right from the beginning of "Fascinated" we get slowely woven into a maze by the spellbinding introduction of a sultry soulstress and when the eeriy string, gentle harp sweeps and a swinging yet almost coy beat fall in it only adds to the feeling of hazy, latenight intimacy. "Taj Mahal" has a more robust, earthy beat with Tabla and deep twangy sitar sounds panning around, making you see all these groovy colors and feel like you are lifted above ground and even "you better find a job" - despite it's title - doesn't even try to pull you back to earth and into dull reality; it's warm pulsating bass, psychedelic feedback and flanger sounds much rather urge you to flip that record over again and stay in the groove.

Story continues its immaculate run of bottom-heavy deephouse with 4 special treats from this british underground figure that make an earthquake like introduction to the scene with 3 anonymous 12"es only that are already sought after and destined to become collectors items. An acid house veteran that followed the whole UK rave progression to harder techno, he harks back to his early influences with his productions by building his dense, jacking slo-mo house grooves around hip-hop and soul samples. Cuts like "The rub" or "DH13" and take their time to slowly sneak-up on you casting a bigger and bigger shadow until you are totally immersed in the smoky, dub-filled atmosphere that has a similar feel to the psychedelic soul of Motown's Norman Whitfild or the RZAs mystic hip-hop soundscapes. "Whobadu" trades for 4/4 pattern for a looser, handclapping 80's funk groove that should cross-over into the box of every more discerned Hip-Hop DJ, while "Olufeme" is a stripped down, Fela style Afro groover with mighty dubbed-out horn loops. four tracks that will keep all you dancers, booty shakers and headnodders happy for a long time!
