Wax Classic shows no sign of stopping in 2014! We return with a brilliant selection of cuts from the very talented Skylax newcomer, Groove Riddim. Living in Belgium and originally hailing from Greece, you wouldn’t usually expect these authentic NY house sounds to have come from that part of the world, but the spirit is there. If you still have any doubts at this point, dispel them in knowing that none other than the NY house hero, Nathaniel X Project, has branded the EP with his seal of approval and even features on the opening track, ‘The Difference’, with Groove Riddim. The message of the track is brought across through Nate’s vocals. That it should be all about the music and the feeling that it brings rather than how or when it was made, an outlook which can often be lost in the music scene today due to snobbery and elitism. ‘Love So Strong’ may end up being one of the standout tracks of this release for lots of house lovers. It builds up a garagey beat piece by piece and reels you in with sustained piano chords before flipping them on their head for some main-room, peak time stabby action. Rounding out the first side is ‘City of Dreams’, a bouncier affair with feel-good strings and keys throughout.To start the B-side, Groove Riddim collaborates with fellow producer, Metta, on ‘Kleurenreis’. It’s a real stomper that fully displays Groove Riddim’s attention to detail when it comes to percussion, chords and vocal snips. The synth they’ve chosen to use even has a bit of a cosmic feel to it, something slightly otherworldly. ‘Close Your Eyes’ and ‘House Will Never Die’ finish off the record, hitting home the theme that to Groove Riddim, it doesn’t matter how or when the music was made. All that matters is that the house feeling is there.

Wax Classic is back! The twelfth release on the label sees the mysterious newcomer(s) Garage Shelter seize the reins, taking us on a trip to familiar and equally unfamiliar territory. Who is Garage Shelter? How do they capture the moods they do so well? Where can they go next?These questions are not important. Garage Shelter should be an idea, something personal, drawing from your own feelings and experiences. Once you finish listening to these tracks, you will want to jump right back in and pick up on what you missed the first time around. When the record begins, you will be hit with an almost overwhelming sense of atmosphere. The midnight jazz and blues club vibe is captured supremely and brought to the forefront on “Moanin’ (Tribute Edit)”, as Garage Shelter show off with a short and sweet sax solo before slipping it into a loop and pairing it with the deepest of chords this side of Detroit. Crisp drum patterns and a chugging bassline drive the track to its climax before blending into the opening keys on “Political Content (Full Contact Mix)”. These first two A-side tracks are early evening affairs, definitely akin to one another, laden with jazzy saxophones and vocal cuts, grunts and cheers. With “Step In The Raw”, we leave the comfort of the smoky jazz retreat that came before and enter a housier club environment. The production on this track puts a raw slant on the progression of the record, as the name would suggest. Soulful vocals contrast with deep sub frequencies whilst reverbed string samples sit perpetually in between.

For our 6th release, we give you the opportunity to grab 4 fantastic trax done by a hot brand new pair of producers : EMOTION II EMOTION Emotion II Emotion is Portland duo Avalon Kalin (Finesse) and Rafael Fauria (Miracles Club) that blend Garage & Deep House live with gritty samples, FM synthesis, analog hardware, swing and passion. Looking back to the golden age of House Music and pushing it forward as a live art form. Inspired by the best of the 90’s club sounds, they deliver here their first EP full of DEEP HOUSE KILLERS. Entitled “EIIE I”, it kicks off with the intense “Feels good” taking things into classic mid 90’s new york territory, straight into a garage sounding bassline, looped vocal intro. We can clearly hear the sound of the E-mu Sp1200 & mpc 60 ! In the same vein on A2, we got the epic “I can’t hep myself” On the flip side, with “I need you”, they’re creating an all-enveloping atmosphere that combined the futuristic groove of the late 80’s detroit scene packed up with some R&B vocal energy. It’s a devastating catchy track full of detuned organs & chopped up vocals as if you get the dub of an original track that finally never existed, maybe only in the creators’ mind ! And to end, “Work” is the sort of feel good house music we used to hear in the early 90’s courtesy of Mr Kerri Chandler, Mood II Swing & M.A.W. Swinging beats, a sax & a disco bass : Come on & dance ! Such an EP just demonstrate how on top of their game SKYLAX / WAX CLASSIC is right now - big tip!

For this first release, we give you the opportunity to grab 4 fantastic trax done by legendary detroit producer : JASON GROVE. Born in Detroit, he started his career in the late 80’s, dj-ing in underground parties when the techno house movement was just at the beginning. He was invited few times on detroit local stations such as WDRQ & WJLB to play. Some said he was at that time very close to the “Wizard”, helping producing their first tracks with anthony srock as Final Cut. He had many opportunities during the 90’s to release some of his work on various prestigious labels, however, as the guy is really hardcore & straight edge, he prefered to continue producing only with analog gears (don’t ever speak to him about a computer or he’ll get mad !) & record his work on cassette only, selling it to indie stores & giving it to friends for some special events (birthday, graduation ect ... !). We heard this story long times ago & it was only when we were in L.A. last year at pooh-bah record shop that we finally managed to get our hands on one of those tapes (one from june 1991 & the other one done in october 1992) with some of the best & incredible music we’ve heard in years, it sounded like kerri chandler BEFORE kerri chandler did even start to release any tracks ! Those first tapes are finally available after a hiatus of more than 15 years on VYNIL ONLY (!).
