We are delighted to welcome DJ Sneak to Industry Standard. An artist that needs very little introduction in the House scene… Since being the forefather of the filtered disco house sound in the early 1990’s with his releases on Cajual, Relief, Henry Street & Strictly Rhythm, and his production credits with Daft Punk, he has been a mainstay in the underground scene with his unwavering style. Little has changed in Sneak’s music in this time, as he always delivers his jackin’ signature sound on his productions or in his DJ sets. So we are delighted to have him on the label. There’s no point is going into the usual track descriptions, these are just straight up DJ Sneak… Real House Music made for Real House People on Real House Music Dancefloors. Enjoy!

Oliver Dollar returns to his own Industry Standard imprint after his debut album 'Another Day Another Dollar' and the run of singles on IS were licensed to Classic Music Company. 'Dreams for Sale' is stellar collaborative cut with Detroit's Mike 'Agent X' Clark featuring vocals from Dr Tingle Fingers. The single also welcomes Bendersnatch to the Industry Standard family who step up on remix duties. The original work kicks off with a rich house groove, paving the way for a slightly eerie strings loop and subtle pumping bass line which locks you in from the off. Dr Tingle Fingers delivers beautiful spoken word in classic house form proving simplicity really can be key as the track develops effortlessly throughout its entirety. Bendersnatch takes things towards the backroom as darker fuzzy kicks rattle you inside and reverb soaked stabs float effortless over the even more minimalistic percussion. Tingle Fingers' vocals appear in stripped back form complimenting the more underground tones of the rework. 'Dreams for Sale' is a strong return for the label with two tracks that cover classic deeper house, and crunchy off-kilter techy vibes. The limited vinyl release will be followed by a digital release at a later date.

Repress!

Two supreme House Grooves from the world renowned “Maestro” of the dancefloor in the continuing build-up to the Louie Vega “Expansions In The NYC” album release. With “Another Day In My Life” Louie Vega incorporates elements of the classic jam “Never Had A Love So Good” by Charles Johnson (fully cleared and licensed from the legendary Henry Stone Music Company), and creates a driving and infectious soul-infused club anthem that ruled the DJ download platforms prior to its vinyl release. On the AA side, Louie works with his long time collaborator Axel Tosca as well as legendary Chicago DJ / Vocalist Mike Dunn to create his own very soulful and New York flavored interpretation of the renowned 1999 Deep Burnt song by Pepe Bradock, done of course with Pepe Bradocks blessings and appreciation.

Early support and played by among others Vincent Floyd, Jimpster, Alex
Dinham, Laurent Garnier…
Vibes and Grooves delivers a new EP from Shaka.
The A side shines with two of his usual jazzy house tunes. „They
Wrote It On The Wall“ is a hypnotic dance floor mover and „All
Wrapped Up“ brings up some 90s house vibes. The rather calm
mood on the flip side with the voice of Six Lee on the tracks „Dear
Disco“ and „You Should Have That Balls„ characterize a classic B
side.

A1 - Original Mix
A2 - Yoruba Soul Remix
B1 - Fred Everything Vox Dub
B2 - DJ Spinna Galactic Soul Remix

Jullian Gomes returns with the second single from his 'Slow Poison' album and this time he brings in the heavy weights of house!

‘Stay’ which features the incredible voice of ZAKI IBRAHIM is a smooth cut but don't let that fool you as this also works perfectly mid set. Usual bumpy grooves & lush backing delivers the original Jullian's unique touch.

Remix team... OSUNLADE / FRED EVERYTHING / DJ SPINNA. Yep, all three of them on one slice of plastic makes for a 12" you can keep in your box for all occasions. Top drawer work from all three remixers as you would expect.
