It has been some years now since Nail came back from the wilderness after one of his early EPs was re-released by Fear of Flying. Since then he has turned out plenty of new material as well as digging deep into his vast and vital vaults to serve up the sort of lo-fi but kicking house sounds that made him and his Nottingham crew such a driving force back in the 90s. And that's what we get here on For Those That Knoe - no fewer than eight masterfully stripped-back cuts of deep house. Some are laced with dreamy melodies, some roll deep for days, some are raw and textured pumpers and some are jazzed-up bangers with charm to spare. Essential stuff.

Following the success of the label's Cassiopeia reissue, Mysticisms presents a second EP from Nail with four previously unreleased tracks of gliding deep house, dub techno and Balearic sunrise anthems, highlighting this respected talent.

Recorded between 1993 to 1999, predominately at the DiY collective's Strictly 4 Groovers studio in Nottingham, with the ever reliable Damian "Deadbeats" Stanley engineering. While edits and overdubs were completed at home, some were mixed down to DAT and cassette to became part of Nail and friends after party soundtrack, as much for pure enjoyment as appraisal.

Still a teenager for the early years of these recordings, Nail was honing his craft. Utilizing the ever faithful S1000 sampler, Juno 106, Oberheim Matrix 1000 and Roland SH101, influences from Future Sound Of London, the emerging 'West Coast Sound' rising in the US, Maurizio's dub fusion, through to the bouncing free party sounds emanating out from the Midlands to a now nationwide party scene embed in to machines.

Unreleased until now, the Cassiopeia release ignited an interest in these old cassettes and DATs, bringing them to life and offering further proof of Nail's place as one of the UK's best House producers.

Ghost the Mystery.

Originally released by Warp Records in 1993, Nail's 'Cassiopeia' has since turned into a timeless deep trance classic. Luca Lozano's interpretation sits somewhere between a remix and an edit, swapping out the original drums for an 808 and some breakbeats. Originally intended only for personal use on the dance floors, Klasse Wrecks is pleased to announce it is now available for public enjoyment via a one-sided white label. The record is housed in a translucent orange sleeve, comes with a 42x60cm 'Klasse Wrecks' poster and is limited to 400 copies only.

89:Ghost rather gingerly presents to you an EP from head gonk Nail - 3 tracks taken from the digital only release "U-Dubs" from 2015, plus an extra unreleased dub from that time. Hopefully this may encourage the miserable git to make some new tracks... watch this space. But for the time being, spark up a zug and chew on these four meaty badboys. Peace - Nx

Riding on the back of a surge of interest in De La Club, the debut LP from Hold Youth, comes a smartly picked repress of House don Nail. While the duo is known for their eclectic vision of dance music, the first repress on the label I’ve Been There EP is in fact an exemplary example of straight-up, no-fuss House. Enjoying a modest comeback of late both as a producer and DJ, Nail originally released Full of Beestone Promise EP on DIY Discs in ’97. The stronger two of the four tracks will be repressed one on each side, ‘Our Love’ and ‘I've Been There’, distinctive for its melodic vocal and recent inclusion in the Apollonia fabric 70 compilation. While we have become accustomed to Hold Youth’s diversification of sounds with the current LP, I’ve Been There reminds us that a pigeon-holable classic can be highly refreshing

the last time alejandro mosso released one of his original productions on airdrop, he was still operating under his funzion alias. released in april 2008 and designed with franco cinelli, the singa*pure ep left a distinctive footprint on many wooden and concrete floors. the mendoza-born producer is now back, revealing here one of the highlights of the new live performance he has presented throughout europe and japan over the last year, “nightwalker” - a cutthroat, synth-driven number, which slightly departs from mosso’s usual signature sound. on the flip, who better to spread some funk and soot than legendary frankfurt artist losoul? one cannot possibly forget his 2008 title “west side horn” on playhouse – the one that actually made us think how most appropriate the losoul treatment would be on nightwalker… we were not wrong!

Funkalicious James is one half of disco-house super-duo Childhood '87, along with his old pal Le Loup. Their "Caught Up" edit on Airdrop's Aux-Rec imprint back in January 2010 got some mouths talking and feet sliding. Funkalicious James is now back with his debut solo EP and Airdrop is really glad to bring it to you on vinyl today. The Parisian born producer prepared two explosive cuts for his A-side, starting things mellow with "Call On Groove" and speeding it up a notch on "Broken Hips". On the flip, Douze -- another young Parisian producer who appeared on the last Hold Youth record by Seuil and Le Loup -- brings back a certain touch of french filtering, in the classiest manner. Finally, it didn't take us much time to figure out who would be the most appropriate Airdrop trooper to round this record off… John Spring signs the deal, with a feverish version

Exactly a year ago we released our first collaboration with John Spring, the Benzo EP which included three phat floorburners, featuring that classic Spring sound. We are really proud to present you with outstanding remixes for each of these.The first person on board was none other than Mr. Mike Huckaby himself. Spring and Huckaby being fellow Native Instruments workers and contributors, the project possessed an instant appeal to the Detroit-based producer. Fresh from a series of outstanding project, including Tresor's 20th Anniversary compilation, the 2nd volume of his Sun Ra Reel To Reel edits and an outstanding 10" on Sushitech, Huckaby's mix is a fresh burst of pure groove. The second ones to be selected for their participation, were Felix Dickinson and Jamie Read from England. Felix Dicksinson is a man of many guises - aka Foolish from duo Foolish & Sly, he has been running the Cynic label since 2004 - Dickinson is also one of the best disco re-editers the old continent has to offer. Long time production partner Jamie Read is well known for his mid '90s productions, many of which got simply stolen by Joe Lewis and released on Target and Relief. Together they call themselves LHAS Inc., the Larry Heard Appreciation Society. The last mix, comes from Airdrop spearhead Franco Cinelli. Upon receiving internal information about the project, Cinelli immediately decided to contribute to the record and dropped a disco house party stormer, making it directly to the A-side.

Over two years ago already, we were announcing Andres Zacco's first EP on Airdrop. The 'Seated Hopping EP' had been sent to us by Andres' best friend, none other than el Señor Franco Cinelli. Needless to say, we fell in love with the subtlety of his music. Fast forward until today and be prepared to be blown away by how much Zacco's musical refinement has developed. Impossible you will say, as you remember last year's 'Something In Your Smile EP' on Airdrop or 'Drawing Clouds' on Zacco's Greener label. Well, give it a listen! Here are three beautiful original tracks, made out of a collection of universal sound, carefully crafted and perfectly mixed in Andres Zacco' Rosario studio. This fully-fledged EP comes to round off a year of successes for Andres Zacco. Having released key 12"s on Dario Zenker's Ilian Tape label (out of which Raresh included 'Icegrass' on his latest Cocoon compilation, or a few weeks ago bursting all techno charts with the original 'Dextre' track on Jonas Kopp's Traut imprint. Swayzak's Brun listened to the first sketches of this EP and immediately decided to give a go to the main track. The result is a conceptual treatment that reflects the advanced maturity of the Swayzak sound, deep inspiration to most, if not all.

Leonel Castillo is undoubtedly Argentina's most gifted producer. While his releases remain extremely rare, his daily creations keep adding and adding onto the thousands of tracks he produced over the past 20 years. On this very special artist EP - Leonel Castillo, the great engineer, sets some
intricate and complex rhythmics in motion, forging El Salon De Los Espejos into a highly feverish hotbox of a record. Get this right : no other man can devellop such elaborate and throbbing patterns as he does. From his lucious grooves featured on Sushitech, to the stripped aesthetics as heard on Illian Tape or even the Dubby Techno textures from his record last year on Greener - needless to say, Leonel covers a wide and complete musical range. Recently, Leonel Castillo was also featured on Resident Advisor's esteemed podcast series. On that occasion, he prepared close to 2 hours of his own unreleased productions only, under a live set format. A mixed recording about which followers commented wildly about for weeks. A true legend in his country, Leonel Castillo actually never crossed the Atlantic ocean to unveil his DJing and Live wonders to the old continent. A fact that will soon become outdated, as el maestro already prepares his ?rst tour for 2011. Also make sure to watch out for the ?rst release of his own label Groovear, which will be made available this Fall...

After releasing milestone EPs between 2007 and 2008 on Pheek's Archipel imprint, Immigrant and their home label, Cynosure, the Uruguayan duo MONOBLOCK completed a great 2009. Inaugurating the Spanish Une Label during the summer with their Introduktion EP, Monoblock also released InTensiones, their third record on Mike Shannon's Cynosure. Recent Berlin implants, by way of Valencia, MONOBLOCK start off 2010 right with a superbly executed whole artist EP on Airdrop Records. Bringing together three tracks of very different moods, the Shouting Nonsense EP reflects the richness and diversity of electronic concepts covered by Monoblock. Going from the most rousing and bouncey Tech House in Shouting Nonsense to the more stripped environment of Cienpies and passing through the use of live instruments in Calid.

Ladies and gentlemen, we're introducing you, in this very precise moment, to a world novelty: the info sheet without words. Why? Because we're left speechless: this record is just so "wooow" it hurts to close the gap. It's like it says on the tin of clichés: “THE DEFINITION” is giving you a concise description of where SOUL CLAP, the humorous Boston-based house duo, is heading. Well, not quite: more where they have arrived, actually. They have found their style. Eleven out of ten! This is light years away from the sick “Puppy Crack” anthem that left you with wobbly legs. Get ready to be completely overwhelmed as the sassy producers beamed themselves into futuristic groove heavens while staying firmly grounded on the proto 90's floor. Right on! Now, “THE DEFINITION”: Deep, funky, percussion tinged sways that do not shy away from being completely trippy although they are as tight as the bar boy's fish nets and sexy get spiced up. Talking about sexy: it can't get any nicer than being “GROWN-N-SEXY”! A slippy funk guitar lick and easy listening freestyle piano keys drift into eternity while sweet female voices murmur the listener into ecstasy. The filtered trumpet that happily plays away while hard hitting filter house beats pump the dancers onto the next level are just out of this world.

Andrés Zacco, the Pergamino-born Argentine producer is not an unknown to the scene. His highly descriptive, funkily elusive, reduced yet very driving house sounds that are finely layered and always utterly tasteful in their composition have surfaced on labels as varied and renowned as Stock5, BPitch, Alphahouse, Esperanza and Traut Muzik. Andrés also releases on his own imprint, Greener, which features works by Lineas de Nazca, Kai-Maan and his dear friend Franco Cinelli to name a few involved. As part of an exciting new wave of Argentinean sound producers, he, alone and together with studio partner Lucas Mari, manages to stun a receptive audience not only with the array of productions and remixes he has been releasing since 2006 but also with his gripping DJ sets.

The Soul Clap boys from Boston who come up with the next AIRDROP outing, outdoing themselves every single time. It’s becoming increasingly hard to hammer them down to a certain sound or aesthetic as their thirst for innovation is just unquenchable! Just when you thought you kind of pigeon-holed the two crazy-ass house lovers who do not shy away from direct references and cheeky samples by labeling them somewhat discofunky deephouse techy, they strike back with a record that’s just way out.

Rooted deep in a high-rising part of Buenos Aires, Retiro, and in his temporary home of choice, Berlin, two of the craziest and most vibrant music cities, Dilo is known for his eclectic and exquisite taste in audio. His productions that sound like crystalline experimental upbeat hophop techno drones with a loopy undertone of clicky random shuffle murkiness are, quite simply put, some of the most marvelous releases around.
