Robert Owens is absolutely one of the voices of his generation. He has lent his tender tones to more classic tracks than you could possibly mention and he continues to do so nowadays with a wholeness generation of producer who want a touch go his authenticity. He has recently achieved another career milestone with a superbly poignant new single that comes with sublime remixes. DJ Spinna's re-flip adds his usual sense of soul and Adeen Records label head Camille then brings some South African Amapiano vibes. Nico Lahs takes it on with a heavy house groove and Scott Hess brings some classic acid jack to his version.

Needwant is proud to present a truly unique package of ‘Interpretations’ featuring the Chicago legend Robert Owen’s brand new ‘One Body’ vocal as individually sound tracked by four of house music’s most exciting producers and Needwant friends and family, Kaine, Mario Basanov, Nicholas and No Regular Play. Robert Owens is widely regarded as a bona-fide originator from the 80’s golden era of Chicago house. Revered for his creations with Larry Heard as Fingers Inc. and responsible for club classics including ‘Ordinary People’ and ‘I’ll Be Your Friend’ (recently remastered and remixed for 1Trax), these days Owens continues to explore new terrain with diverse output and collaborations with the likes of Photek and Coldcut. It is Owens’ velvet, deep, soulful voice that has been a constant thread throughout the history of dance music. Nicholas is the humble Italian disco producer who was last seen on Needwant dropping a stunning remix for Mario Basanov’s ‘Up’ release. His ‘One Body Interpretation’ is a classic house workout with crisp kicks and pulsing synths and bass and the result is a track that could easily be mistaken for an old school 90’s house record. No Regular Play are the unstoppable musical minds of Greg Paulus and Nick De Bryn from the Wolf + Lamb camp and their ‘Interpretation’ moves the body on a deeper level with chugging slo-mo house grooves, syncopated beats and a mid-point transition that melts with deep chords and muted jazz. Young Lithuanian, Mario Basanov lends his dextrous touch to ‘One Body’ with languid house grooves, clipped beats and evolving patterns of warm keys and harmonies. Kaine is already well known to Needwant fans for his monster hit ‘Love Saves The Day feat. Kathy Diamond’ (due a re-release on Defected this year.) With his ‘Interpretation’ he brings the bass, with rolling percs, club worthy piano stabs and dreamy chords. A flawless union between a veteran and a new generation of artists, ‘One Body’ is a true reflection of the Needwant label’s love for classic sounds and dedication to raising the stars of the future. With such a high calibre of artists in its stable, the label has fast become a beacon of originality and class.

with debut EP 'Our Society'. Since then a well-received remix of the 90s house classic Giv Me Luv' and well-executed re-edits have further added to the buzz around the LA based outfit and their second EP 'Hidden Agenda' will no doubt fuel the fire of hype. Picking up where 'Our Society' left off, 'Doe's Playas' and 'I Can't Understand' pursue a dusty groove led aesthetic made up of well-cut samples. Diva vocal snippets , tribal tinged beats and filtered basslines make for an irresistible feel good combination. 'Secret Agent' explores a deep techy house sound built around a playful filtered synth line and bouncey bass, primed for the dance floors.

Huxley, aka Michael Dodman, has had an outstanding 2012. Building on an already rock-solid career which has seen him release on Tsuba, Cecille and deliver countless excellent remixes, this year has seen the Hertfordshire (UK) producer/dj deliver an outright anthem in 'Let it Go' for Hypercolour alongside superb EP's for 20:20 Vision, Leftroom and Tsuba (forthcoming). His DJing abilities have seen him grace the decks the world over as well as podcasts for the likes of Fact and I-D, while winning universal press and radio support within electronic music. Much like the Hypercolour and Tsuba producer's productions, his mix here demonstrates a love for a smorgasbord of quality house and garage music while continually returning to powerful bass and prominent hooks throughout. This limited edition 12" features 2 sharply contrasting remixes from Huxley - Maya Jane Coles 'Dazed' & Shenoda 'Moments'.

Two of the most prolific names in the scene have come together for 1trax's latest release. Kicking off his career as a promoter/DJ of Birmingham?s legendary Below parties which have seen just about every DJ worth their salt play, Ashique ?Subb-An? Subhan has developed into one of the most bankable producer/DJs around. The sound design graduate has already graced Tsuba, Leftroom, Hot Creations, 20:20 Vision, Mothership and his own One Records imprint while forthcoming material for Culprit, Spectral and Crosstown Rebels is set to further an already cast-iron reputation. Hailed as "easily the hottest emerging talent in dance music" by Mixmag, nominated as “Best Breakthrough Producer” by DJ Mag and with the likes of Anja Schneider, Jamie Jones and Damon Alburn queing up behind to offer their praise; there is something rather special about Maya Jane Coles. 'Get Away' was a previous successful 1trax release, and Subb-an's own take on Maya's laid-back funk truly does it justice.
