The third Edible release comes from a producer we’ve admired for many, many years. A consistent and truly dependable master of the jackin’ groove since the late 1990s, Brett Johnson has flexed his musical muscle for some of our favourite labels. Singles for Derrick Carter’s Classic, DJ Sneak’s Magnetic, Freerange and Visionquest have been record box staples for Eats Everything over the years, so it’s a big fat hello and welcome to Brett on the ‘Snack Attack’ EP. Lead cut, ‘Jack’, gets all playful, its nursery rhyme lyrical twist providing a most memorable dialogue over a killer house production. Jack by name, jack by nature, Brett throws all the right ingredients for a modern day ‘boompety’ vibe. And if the vocal is not quite your thing, a ‘Dub Mix’ does what it says on the tin, with added raw flavor! ‘Noisy Neighbours’ on the flip is another high-octane house barnstormer; a deft funky disco loop sits squarely in big room production, coming across like a classic Danny Tenaglia joint on +3, its wandering bassline and techno chops will no doubt blow a few brain cells when collided with a dark room and a strobelight!

Dallas native Brett Johnson has been in the business of blowing up dancefloors for quite some while employing multiple guises. As producer, DJ and label owner, Brett has deftly crossed boundaries over house, techno disco and R&B delivering a cascade of benchmark releases for well over a decade including ‘Stucco Homes’ on Classic, ‘Temptation and Lies’ from album project with David Barker and his momentous remix of Scooper & Bubba ‘I’m Satisfied’. Brett has also been running own imprint Bang The Box with close friend Lance DeSardi since 2007. A-side ‘Move Power’ featuring the enigmatic vocals of Andre Lewis aka Ellipsis is a peak time banger with lashings of cutting edge soul. Always exploring futuristic house sounds, Brett fuses leftfield modern magic with analogue keys and otherworldly FX to create a musical head-trip for the senses. Big percussion, tough rhythms, twisted acid lines and complex melodic textures combine and crescendo with a bang while the eerily tinged vocals yield emotion to compel the dancefloor. The ‘Move Power (Dub)’ ascends with a wonked out euphoric quality for an alternative trip. B-side ‘Furtherer’ is a prime example of Brett’s propensity for groove. A rolling tech cut with a tough exterior and bubbling centre, its intricate percussive patterns, bleeps that will be a certified winner on the floor worked with bizarre samples for the most mind-bending hour of the night. Visionquest proudly welcome to the fold one of modern dance music favourite son's.

Legwork is back with a new single from our favourite cosmic crusader, Brother Nebula.

The A-side consists of a tape-crushed lysergic stormer, on which the Brother helps us to be mindful, and a couple of useful DJ tools from the same session. The B-side starts with a broken affair with pensive chords floating around bleeps and sounds of the universe, and finishes with a dubbed-out version of the previously-released and extremely well-received S.I.S. featuring San Francisco stalwart Solar.

Legwork 5 comes from Berlin-based bad boy Kenneth Scott. Tonight is a slow building affair with a heavy bass line that weaves it's way into your consciousness before opening up for all-out psychological warfare. On the flip the Legwork guys speed up the tempo and add steady drum work to give the main loop it's just deserts. More

The 3rd outing from Legwork comes from one of our label heads in Lance DeSardi and singer/song writter Jesse Rennix. This one's been a long time in the making, but the final product is well worth the blood, sweat and tears. With a heavy nod to Prescription Records and the 1st & 2nd wave Detriot pioneers, emotion is the order of the day. Not much else to say, other than see for yourself... The heavens await. More

For Legwork's first outing, we've recruited a seminal techno-soul producer from Dallas, Texas, who prefers to stay in the shadows, remaining nameless(ish). That said, anyone who's serious about Detroit techno know's his work on Matrix, Down Low, and most receintly Delsin. On Remix duty are fellow Dallas alumnus Lance DeSardi, head honcho at Legwork, and DJ Cle, the hardest massaging man in house music. A1. Down Off Cooper If this bassline doesn't hook you, check your pulse. Add some twisting and sliding pads to relentless machine-funked rhythms, and Robert's your mother's brother. A2: Where's Cityboy? The perfect complimentary tune to Down Off Cooper, this one's slightly deeper, while still keeping the drum patterns moving and bass rumbling enough for the most discerning of dance floors. B1: Down Off Cooper (Lance De Sardi & Cle Remix) Lance & Cle take Down Off Cooper to a more House-oriented dimension, never losing the techno soul of the original. The extra vocal snippet reminescent of classic M.A.W. dubs or Global Communication shoots this one into space. More
