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

Nail is a bit of a legend. With his career flourishing once again it seems there are plenty of ears alert to his next musical move: a limited edition and individually numbered nine-track double pack on Shabby Doll called 'Nite Music'. And they’re not going to be disappointed. This collection shimmers and shines, packed with gleaming house music designed both for early evening head-nodding and early hours hands-in-the-air moments.
From deeply delicious tracks like 'Angel Dub' and 'Lunar Views' to harder-edged delights like 'Track Two' and 'Bikky Swing', Nail has created another must-have set for the fast-expanding Shabby Doll catalogue.

It's a universal truth that sometimes we all need a little time out. But time away from the coal face doesn't necessarily mean putting your feet up, and though Sheffield house master Squarehead has taken a break from the release schedule of late, he's remained hard at work in the studio. Squarehead is back, this time as ES.Q. And not only does he have a gleaming new name, he also has a freshened-up sound after months in the studio perfecting a crisp new audio signature. His new release Tail Winds / Workin' Hard Or Hardly Workin', features two fearsome cuts that are set to wreak havoc across dancefloors. Tail Winds is a whirlwind of clipped vocal snippets and relentless drums that build an initially air-whipped techy house tune into a track of raw intensity. Over on the flip is Workin' Hard or Hardly Workin', a plaintive vocal refrain wrapped round a thudding and irresistible groove. If ES.Q is an alter ego of Squarehead, the latter is also sometimes known as young house aficionado Oliver Ledger. He retains the thrill and sparkle that gives dance music its inexplicable power over mind and body - so keep your ears on ES.Q and feel the music blowing through your soul...

Tooth Faeries brings together Mark Brydon and Parrot. The Sound is their new release on Shabby Doll - two versions of the title cut plus the gently pulsing Love & Resistance. Deeply melodic yet also crisp and compelling, The Sound layers Carmen Squire's lush vocal over a martial drum beat, unleashing a dose of deep Sheffield bass just when it matters most. It's an arresting and irresistible record, disarmingly simple and yet designed to stick fast in the memory.
Mark Brydon established the groundbreaking FON studio and label in Sheffield, and went on to head up the FON Force production team. He then delivered a string of global hits with Roisin Murphy as Moloko. Parrot was one of the pioneer DJs who first brought House music to the UK, playing at the legendary Jive Turkey parties alongside Shabby Doll labelmate Winston Hazel. His 'Sweet Exorcist' collaboration with Cabaret Voltaire's Richard H. Kirk became the first album release on Warp Records, and helped to define the bleep Techno sound. Constantly reinventing himself, his recent Crooked Man project has been receiving worldwide acclaim. And though Brydon and Parrot are key players in the history of British dance music, there's no doubt about it: Tooth Faeries aren't thinking about the past. They're too busy delivering The Sound of now.

For some ageing producers, the nineties represent a lost land of hazy parties, forgotten nights and emotion-tugging tunes. But for the fresher-faced end of the dance music spectrum - such as the LA-based DJ and producer Urulu - those post acid house, pre-MP3 days are a neverland of the imagination, something to be relished vicariously through the mags, memories and music of 20-odd years ago. Two years back, Urulu - aka Taylor Freels - even released a single called '1991'. It might have made some grizzled club kids feel a bit old, but the love and euphoria in his music are there for all to hear. But jump right up to the minute, and Urulu is back in action for Sheffield's Shabby Doll label. His new EP, called 'Banshee Boardwalk', is an effervescent four-tracker that tingles with that gleaming, glitzy mid-nineties house sound, but that adds a tantalising 21st century twist to the mix. Snipped vocal clips, pulsing melodies and rattling build-ups crash over a compellingly crisp house groove, always with the ghost of disco dancing somewhere out back. The tracks 'Banshee Boardwalk' and 'Heaven Unlimited' both deliver a solid, pounding take on classic house, while 'BeforeHandMan' features a sumptuous vocal turn from Daj (New York's DeShawn Jenkins), before being twisted into darker, harsher remixed shapes by Shabby Doll labelmate James Welsh. Urulu might not have been there first time around, but with the nineties' house sound lifting hands aloft once more, he's giving it an original sheen that makes it matter all over again.ic.

No sleep for those guys at Shabby Doll Records. Not long since Nail's Lost Trax 1997 sold out shortly after going on sale, and they are already about to drop SHB014... This time Shabby Doll bring a killer package from two of the most highly respected men in house music today - South West Seven. South West Seven are Montel and Sean Grieve. These guys have a track record to die for. Their collab label 'Seven Music' has released tracks from the likes of COEO, Rhythm Operator, Giovanni Damico, Death On The Balcony and of course the man Montel himself. As a production duo, they’ve released on labels Kolour Ltd, On The Prowl, Sccucci Manucci, Carry On, and Solardisco. But when Shabby Doll came calling, shit got serious. The result was three shimmering new cuts, on yellow vinyl no less.
It's a vibrant thing! The EP is BT1. Strong. P.S. And just when you thought it couldn't get any better, along comes Shabby Doll favourite, 'Quell' on the remix.
Angelic.

As A&R for the Hypercolour label, Ste Roberts has been involved in releases by Kris Wadsworth, Groove Armada, Luke Vibert and Maya Jane Coles, plus he's already remixed James Welsh's 'Wanderlust' for Shabby Doll. And now that his own jack-happy 'The Foxy Bingo EP' four-tracker is being released into the wild, it's clear he's as adept at delivering his own perfectly-formed house cuts as he is at picking up on other people's potential. Right from the off, the dancefloor's lucky numbers come up again and again, first with Ste's own mix of 'The Jungle', then with a version mixed by Shabby Doll stalwart and Bent legend, Nail. From then on, it's deep dance delirium all the way – two more tracks of four/four fun, perfect for happy nights and foxy dawns.
So eyes down people; Ste Roberts is here, and it's time to shout 'House!'

The enigmatic Oushe has already remixed a stack of tracks in the Shabby Doll catalogue and from his studio, surrounded by his beloved analogue machines, produced a slew of dancefloor hits for others. Now though, he's ready for the limelight and with his solo 'Starz On 33 EP', it's clear he’s got the slippery world of celebrity on his mind. His debut EP packs in a quartet of raw, percussive, heavyweight house cuts that are guaranteed to make any dancefloor shake. Impressive stuff - a taste of the future now.

Shabby Doll may seem a little infatuated with Yorkshire house at the moment – but who's complaining? Next up is the 'Wanderlust EP' from Bradford born James Welsh. James has already performed remix duties for Shabby Doll, having whisked up Mella Dee's 'Things Don't Change' in 2013, but his appearance centre stage turns the attention onto his own propulsive house sound. The four-track release brings together three sparkling James Welsh productions, along with a malevolently powerful remix of the title track by Hypercolour's Ste Roberts. It's another sign - following releases on Hypercolour, Wolf Music, Losing Suki and Futureboogie - that James is a quality creator of deep, delicious house music. In fact, James has already hit some heady heights in his previous life as Ocelot. In that guise, he signed to Wall of Sound and played everywhere from the main stage at Creamfields to a rooftop gig in Miami, not to mention remixing the likes of Rob Zombie, Depeche Mode and... believe it... Britney Spears. But now he's cut loose and is heading where his heart takes him...

It can be hard to pin down the elements that make up a city's signature sound, but when you hear it, you know it. And Winston Hazel's new track, "Break Up", is 100 per cent Sheffield, from the boom and buzz of its bassline to the bitter-sweet choral hook that pierces it through the heart. Not that this is a surprise. Winston has been pounding out high-tensile dance music for decades, even helping to define Sheffield's electronic echo as one half of Forgemasters - their "Track With No Name" became the first ever release on Warp Records back in 1989. Now, with this new release on Shabby Doll, he has delivered a tune that balances its relentless industrial groove with a melodic pulse that nags and tugs at the soul. Just like Sheffield. Just like Winston. A tireless DJ and producer as well as a true originator, Winston Hazel helped gift house music to the city via his mid-eighties parties that pitched new American dance sounds up against his beloved funk, jazz and soul. It was an irresistible concoction, and from these early innovations grew a city-centric dance industry that continues to echo - and still has Winston at its heart. He's deejayed round the world and recorded for an array of quality labels, but his dedication to the dancefloor burns as fiercely as ever. Winston's original version of "Break Up" is backed with a remix by fellow Sheffielder Squarehead - "Squarehead's Deadline Dub". A young producer who understands what makes the city move, Squarehead keeps the furnace firing with powered-up percussion and a hollow metallic thump. Together, the two tracks pack a real punch at the heart of the Shabby Doll catalogue, which is shaping up in fine buy-on-sight style after just a few months in business. Winston's career has taken him from pirate radio outlaw to Warp pioneer to Sheffield scene stalwart to crucial producer, and still he hammers out the rhythms to fearsome acclaim. Only a few months ago, he worked with Jarvis Cocker and Richard Hawley on The Big Melt - a film and music project that some might say created the definitive Sheffield soundtrack. But it doesn't stop there for Winston, and if you want to hear his next irresistible move... stick with him. Because he's back again. And this time, it's all about breaking up. No change there.

If Chicago and Detroit are the cities in which House and Techno were born and raised, it was in Italy circa 1990 that this delirious party music experienced a piano-driven coming of age. So far, so spangled. But while that may be the official story, there are other Italian narratives too. Take Francois Le Roy and Nanni for instance - two DJs and producers from southern Italy for whom, in the early nineties, the likes of Aphex Twin, Autechre and Air Liquide were important, alongside the machine funk of Detroit and the immersive soundtracks of the ambient generation. Both artists are steeped in underground club music, and their new release on Shabby Doll Records is a fine example of tough, tech-edged house. The "Crossing Roads" EP features four tracks that showcase their melodic yet relentless groove; they may be based in Milan, but on this record, the influence of Detroit, Chicago and New York runs deep..

WHO LET THE SUNSHINE IN? Two mystery dance heavyweights come together as Gosoul with new single ?Sunshinin'? You know it when you hear it. We're talking about that red hot combination of melody and emotion that fuses into a blazing summer sunrise classic, and we're sure that when you let Gosoul's debut single, ?Sunshinin'?, wrap you in its sonic rays, you'll know you've experienced That Feeling once again. With its rich, rousing vocal and warm sax lilt, not to mention its tight ska shuffle and the hint of a reggae lope propelling the bassline, ?Sunshinin'? - the third release on Sheffield's Shabby Doll label - is going to lift dancefloors wherever the sun shines this summer. Then there's the remix, by Oushe, packing in an irresistible house bounce along with the spine-tingling solar vibrations. But who are Gosoul? Well, that remains something of a mystery. Think of them as silhouettes against the sun; however much you squint and shield your eyes, you can't see exactly who's there... What we can say is that the two members are no strangers to chart success or dance music's biggest stages. One has written and recorded with some of house music's legendary names, conquering dance charts across Europe and the States including three number 1?s on the Billboard Hot Dance Chart. The other is a production wizard who scored a previous summer smash of his own, achieving a UK number 1 with one of those tunes that can't help but remind you of a time, a place, faces and smiles... So discover what this summer has in store with Gosoul's ?Sunshinin'?.

DON’T WAIT FOR YONKS ! Nail returns with the 'Yonks' EP on Sheffield's Shabby Doll label . Just what is house music's secret? What has enabled it to disperse its genes throughout contemporary music while still staying true to itself and remaining, frankly, irresistible? If there's one man who appears to possess the answer – or who at least has access to the secret vault where the formula's kept – it's Nail. Also known as Neil Tolliday, Nottingham-based Nail created an entire universe of gentle loveliness as one half of the celebrated downtempo duo Bent; however, after ten years of Bent success, he's recently returned to the house music he loves, delivering a series of lessons in how to make fresh-tasting house that still has that certain classic 'something' – the ingredient X that keeps dancefloors bouncing. Nail's latest selection is the Yonks EP on Sheffield label Shabby Doll. Following up the recent Donks four-tracker on the same label, his new tunes are a house masterclass – they're melodic and uplifting, yet also hedonistic and tough. Mouse Trax Shimmers like the spangles from a glitterball, it's a rippling delight that urges the dancefloor brethren to feel it, dream it...

New Sheffield label Shabby Doll Records makes its debut with Nail's 'Donks' EP .

Now, with love for Nail's solo manoeuvres truly reignited, Sheffield's Shabby Doll label is taking the next step with his first new solo material for years. Called 'Donks', Nail's new four-track EP showcases his flawless dancefloor instincts: There’s something deliciously seductive about this early hours charmer. One to play when things are getting wonderfully weird… and finally, Never4gEdit brings back the sunshine with some sweet, melody-flecked disco. With Nail’s vintage house output currently proving to have real staying power, lovers of real British house music eagerly await his new tracks. So if you’ve got a dark room and a feeling, let Nail, Shabby Doll and 'Donks' add a little magic to the night.
