Tracklisting:
A1 Rove Ranger - Secrets We Kept
A2 Rove Ranger - Dish You
B1 Rove Ranger - Endless
B2 Rove Ranger - Unstable Current


Release Note:
Rove Ranger delivers the second release on the new Vision Ekstase label featuring four fast-paced techno cuts entitled 'VISION II - CONVOLUTION'.

A regular at the Vision Ekstase parties at Stuttgart's Lehmann Club, Rove Ranger now joins the imprint following his debut on Android Muziq released earlier this year. 'VISION II - CONVOLUTION' succeeds David Lohlein's enthralling opener on the imprint that continues to pick up traction amongst some of techno's most revered names including the likes of Ben Sims, Efdemin, Randomer, Luke Slater, Amelie Lens and many more.

The simple yet effective opener, 'Secrets We Kept' features a catchy melody combined with a heavy kick drum and scattered Hi-hats before 'Dish You' turns tables with heavy percussions and ghetto vocals, perfectly suited for peak-time purposes.

While the A-Side is influenced by present techno styles, the B-Side taps into the nostalgic realms of the genre. The highly energetic 'Endless' introduces relentless highs, driving oscillations and catchy yet groovy rave synths until 'Unstable Current' closes the EP with catchy string pads in combination with a sparkling acid line and revolving modulations.

Another vinyl and another electric debut as we introduce France's Casual Treatment to EarToGround. New to the label but an extremely well versed, well known prolific producer and DJ to our scene.

This powerful Extended Player effortfully delivers four bright cuts of razor sharp Techno. The two originals from Casual express a somewhat soulful experience of his production range with the use of immersive chords and shimmering female vocals backed by obsessive grooves and perfectly executed percussion.

To fully augment the experience exponentially two Portuguese leading lights of the movement deliver their own input to the release via two separate remixes. Vil enterers in with his unique rolling attitude to bring you a true peak time performance and completing the release Cravo lets rip with an intense, sharp, fast paced rework with his dark undertones.

A true essential 12".

The hugely influential British DJ and producer Bushwacka bursts onto Nu Groove with a four-track EP, ‘House Sound Vol. 1’, that demonstrates the touch of an expert. A member of the legendary Rat Pack rave outfit, Bushwacka’s impact on the underground scene of the ‘90s was felt worldwide; together with fellow Brit Layo Paskin, the pair created spellbinding compositions that defined the sound of house and techno, blending the two genres approaching the new millennium.

For this fresh outing on the pioneering NYC label Nu Groove, Bushwacka taps into his unwavering knowledge of dancefloor culture. The opening, an ode to the legendary imprint ‘Strictly Nu’, builds infectious loops with ease before dropping into an arresting four-on-the-floor club feel.

The subsequent tracks follow suit, with ‘Love Can You’ and ‘Right Now’ showcasing the producer’s unique club-led sound in full flow, while ‘True For You’ has a more minimalistic approach. With this new delivery of originals, Bushwacka further cements his status as a genre-defining electronic innovator.

NEW CUT AND REMASTER FOR 2023

A brand new cut and remaster for 2023 of the multi genre-busting release 'Don't Send Me Away', that transcended most dance scenes from Modern Soul, Rare Groove, Crossover and Boogie to become perhaps the most in-demand '80s record on the current collectors scene.

A certified classic from a Philly soul legend, Garfield Fleming, that never fails to hit you right in the heart. Already one of the most sought after 12 inches out there, the popularity of 'Don't Send Me Away' was cemented when a video of Garfield himself signing the track at a Paris record stall in late 2018, went viral with nearly 3,000,000 views to date.

With original 12 Inch copies trading hands for £300+ it was high time a remastered reissue hit the shelves, giving a whole new generation of listeners the chance to bask in the glory of this unquestionable anthem.

Legendary NYC label Nu Groove presents an unmissable vinyl package spotlighting two celebrated house selectors and their 2023 releases. First up on the A-side, Chicago native Ron Carroll presents two tracks from his ‘House Of Love EP’; ‘Mysteries’ aims to answer the question “Where does house come from?” as it namedrops fellow icons, while ‘Dreams’ is more forceful, asserting that “This is OUR house”.

Both feature Carroll’s distinctive vocals, their messages ringing clear and true over that classic, Chicago-club-ready sound. On the flip, Trilogy Inc. return with fresh originals ‘Awakening’, a bouncy club track built from smooth chords and a dynamic beat decorated with vocal house snippets, and ‘Hi Cycle’, continuing with energetic percussion and syncopated synth patterns to give a classic feel. Coming together on wax for the first time, these tracks are for the choice selectors seeking serious underground heat.
