South London label and party series Troy Town is proud to present the first release in 3 years from Warren Brown aka Wbeeza, insanely talented South London producer and 1st generation pioneer of what has become affectionately known in dance music as the 'Peckham Sound'. DJs, producers and musicians such as Henry Wu, Bradley Zero and Chaos in the CBD have added to the wealth of a deeply musical community but it was the likes of Brown and another SE15 local, El-Prevost, who first put the area on the dance music map.This 3-track EP covers a variety of moods and situations. Opening with The OD, a heady march to peak time on the dancefloor which has featured heavily in live sets over the last 2 years. The bassline bubbles tantalisingly as it edges through a kinetic, digital riff that sticks with you long after the lights go up. Grove Park is so low slung that the snare sounds like it might fall out of sync at any moment while the lead synth leads you on a drunk walk home, at times holding it's line before stumbling over a pitch bend and veering to find its balance. Bizzle Boogie is equal parts gritty, Midwest-influenced bounce track and shimmering eyes closed rave moments. More

Since its inception in 2002, Third Ear's output has remained ineffably reliable and multifaceted whilst carrying forth a distinct and tangible sense of soul. Now, 13 years on, Wbeeza makes a welcome return home and follows up a slew of lauded EPs on the label as well as his 2010 debut LP, 'Void' with only his second album, 'Expression Of Love'. And what an album it is. More

Wbeeza back on Third Ear after a two year break, during which he set up his P Fly Music label and released two 12s. The Can Of Worms ep is four joints of uncompromising future funk. All different but with one thing in common... unmistakably Warren Brown. More

Wbeeza's first release since 2012's Peckham Fly/Billy Green Is Ded single. If You Believe is a simple stone cold knockout hook over deliciously arranged elements. Wacky Racers is a peak time banger - maybe his hardest track so far. Wise Root is a slow burner, only revealing its full force after nearly 5 minutes of keeping the dance floor locked in. Mo Bella is a rolling, swinging live jam of irrepressible groove. Four unmistakable Wbeeza joints. More

The 3rd edition of the Dance 2017 series is a double A side featuring a track from the highly regarded Palms Trax and also the debut production from Secretsundaze aka Giles Smith & James Priestley.

Secretsundaze are proud to announce the second 12' in the Dance 2017 series. The EP is once again a 3 tracker this time featuring the highly-promising emerging talents of DJ Slyngshot, Bastien Carrara and Jayson Wynters. DJ Slyngshot hailing from Offenbach near Frankfurt has had tongues wagging with three hot 12s on his own imprint Yappin Records and received club and radio play by the likes of Omar S, Floating Points, Ben UFO and Jon Rust. His contribution to the A side of Dance 2017 Part 2 sees him on fine form with the devastating rhythm of 'Hygh-Tech'. Kicking off with a rough and ready groove the hook is a gnarly nagging synth line that will worm its way into your brain. Add a sampled wailing diva and some more jazzy interludes and you have a festival-ready high grade bomb on your hands! On the flip steps up France's Bastien Carrara. His dusty jams on the likes of Rawthenticity and Funkineven's Apron imprint caught our attention and we roped him in for a track. Here he presents the charming, breezy and breaky 'That Time Again'. Warm, atmospheric and groovy this is definitely one for long summer nights ahead. Last up Jayson Wynters represents the UK! Jayson made his debut on none other than Mr G's Phoenix G. imprint with the sub-aquatic 'Unfamiliar Territories' EP. He is an amazing DJ and selector able to play house / techno sets and also jazz, boogie, disco and funk sets where required at the likes of Brilliant Corners. 'Chi Kung' is a bubbling, mystical percussive number with hand played drums and a perfect closer to the EP.

Solune has just released one EP in his short career on the Bass Cadet imprint but is also is one half of the Arcarsenal duo who also released on the label. The EP kicks off with the mighty 'The Vision', a majestic New York inspired atmospheric stomper combining both spiritual and techy vibes that you can imagine hearing pumping out over the system at The Sound Factory or Shelter. 'Sacred Smoke' is a hazy, languid percussive workout that will sound perfect early doors to build the tension. B1 'Rhythm School' does what it says on the tin and is a warm, driving housey cut.
We wouldn't make these comparisons lightly but this sounds like a long lost Ron and Chez track to these ears. Last up is the exotic and mystical 'Idiom Of Peace'. 'The Hierophant' EP is a stunning EP of different flavours and a perfect addition to the Secretsundaze catalogue.

Hot on the heels of Endian's highly regarded 'XS-10' comes a full EP from Secretsundaze favourite Fred P. After his contribution to the first Dance 2017 V/A EP, Secretsundaze thought they would get him to contribute a full EP. Fred is without doubt a master of his craft both as a DJ and producer and somehow manages to be prolific while keeping the bar set high, releasing across many platforms from his own Soul People Music to Ibadan to Mule to Ostgut Ton. A1 track '6AM' does what it says on the tin and is a moody, tribal percussive number with a voodoo like vibe. 'Herb' is a more psychedelic affair with weird off-kilter alien jazz keys, spooky voices and rumbling bass. Last up there is a timeless, classic, more typically spiritual Fred P track in 'Mile High' with its slow build groove, gentle keys, soaring strings and ethereal vocal harmonies which will surely become a 'moment' in many of the deeper DJs sets. More

Secretsundaze's 021 comes in the shape of a 2 tracker from Endian. For those that don't know Endian is the house/techno alias of George Levings most famously known as Commix (Metalheadz). Endian was of course responsible for the huge 'Finish Me' on Secretsundaze in 2015 which was included on mixes by the likes of Joy Orbison, Tessela and Scuba. As Endian he has released first rate tracks on the likes of Non Plus, Electric Minds and Trevino's Birdie imprint. 'Global EP' his 2nd EP for the label see's Endian back in fine form. 'XS-10' is a futuristic, hypnotising burner that in the hands of the right DJ is sure to be a deadly weapon. On the flip title track 'Global' is a warmer, deeper free flowing track with musical flourishes that will keep the party moving. More

secretsundaze 017 comes from London based producer Endian. Releasing just 2 EPs in a few years on Nonplus and Electric Minds, Endian has nevertheless managed to to turn the heads of the likes of Steffi who used one of his tracks for her Panorama Bar compilation and Boddika who also licensed a track for a various artists EP. Sounding like a producer far more experienced than the two releases would indicate, it came as no surprise that this is far from the the output of a novice but the seasoned veteran George Levings aka Commix (Metalheadz). Endian has been a regular at secretsundaze events over the years and a friendship developed with Giles and James. The project is an outlet for him to release the more technoey and house sound that he is increasingly inspired by. Lead and title track 'Finish Me' is a stone cold killer. Ballsy, raw and over driven in the mix, a tribal breakbeat groove builds before brassy stabs sneak in. The peak of the track sees dramatic pads cut through for a moment of serenity before the drums drop back in. Joy Orbison used 'Finish Me' in his Essential mix late last year and its also been a highlight of secretsundaze's sets over last 6 months. 'Dusty' goes deeper with a layer of fuzzy warmth enveloping the track. Driving but definitely one for the later hours or early on with its hypnotising flow and subtle musical flourishes. Last up 'Sub Tropic' is a heads down, growling, low slung techno track with it's deep sub bass. This is definitely a track you can imagine hearing in the bowels of Berghain well into Sunday daytime. 'Finish Me' is arguably Endian's best work to date and it's another fine addition to the secretsundaze catalogue. REISSUE More

Hi Tech Jazz is definitely the order of the day with 'Warriors Return', 'People of The World' climaxes with crowds effects and 'Night Ridin' closes the EP with a hypnotising flow. All in all a great return from Two Armadillos duo.
