Four of the freshest Blaze remixes come together on wax for the first time on Slip ‘N’ Slide, ‘Blaze Remixed’. The West London label is home to some of the best house music that crossed the Atlantic from the 90s onwards, and today the imprint continues to refresh Blaze’s legendary catalogue with remixes from leading industry figures. Up first, British producer Atjazz takes the cool feel of ‘So In Love’ from the minds of Kevin Hedge & Josh Milan as Black Rascals, adding his signature genre-crossing style. Jimpster’s take on ‘Wonderland’, featuring Josh Milan on vocals as Alexander Hope, stabilises the track while allowing the free-flowing feel of the OG to shine through. Brooklyn native DJ Spinna’s remix of ‘How Deep Is Your Love’ capitalises on Hope’s powerful vocals, supported by impeccable synth-laden production, before vinyl aficiando Natasha Diggs closes out this Blaze collection with her remix of ‘Breathe’; Diggs stays faithful to the original’s iconic saxophone and trumpet-led sound, sprinkling in her tasteful flair for smooth grooves and delicious synthwork at every turn.

West London’s Slip ‘N Slide presents a special four-track package on wax for the first time, as Seth Troxler and Franck Roger deliver remixes of the 1997 Blaze favourite ‘Lovelee Dae’. An iconic artist who needs little introduction, Seth Troxler’s name is synonymous with American house and techno of the last two decades, with his formative years in Detroit shaping his sound before moving to the techno capital of the world Berlin. His ventures as a label boss, and with Night Tales, further cemented the talent as an underground hero - he now joins the likes of Carl Craig, Roman Flügel, and Isolée in giving ‘Lovelee Dae’ an expertly crafted remix, building from minimal grooves to a grand and immersive wash of sound. Also stepping up on remix duties is Parisian producer, crate digger and label boss of Real Tone Records, Franck Roger, who adds his signature beat focussed approach to the iconic track. This vinyl package also includes Blaze’s striking original, as well as one of the very first remixes from the late 90s, the 20:20 Vision remix of which used copies go for big money. This is an essential 12 inch EP for any true house fan.

When "Moonwalk" was released in 1995, it was immediately recognized as a new high for the already well-accomplished Newark, NJ outfit Blaze. Previously, Josh Milan and Kevin Hedge had laid to waste virtually all competition with a slew of dope releases under their various guises in a little over 2 years---this after they had been dropped from Motown and left to fend for themselves in the highly inspired NY/NJ underground club scene. Burrowing further, the duo kept a low-profile throughout 1994, returning the following year to grace the world with their Funky People incarnation on the seminal "Blaze Tracks EP," hailed for "Moonwalk"'s relentless, soaring beauty. Borrowing from the most psych-inclined soul-jazz pioneers of Blaze's confessed elementary foundation, the instrumental is one of the groups unquestionable demonstrations of genius and a bellowing affirmation of Josh Milan's otherworldly synth-work, which slithers and slopes its way through the tough, on-point, moody-keyed production typical of their mid-90's sound. The track is so cocky it abruptly ends with virtually no notice following 7 minutes of continuous ascension and accumulated tension, all left to dissipate instantly in a haze of astonishment and amazement. A classic club landmark, "Moonwalk" is reissued here as the latest installment of slow to speak's CORE series, a fine testament to the expansive, totally-mesmerizing sound of authentic deep house music at its point of inception in the sweaty, blacked-out club-spaces of the NY metro-area and beyond.
