Casino Times

Nicholas Church and Joseph Spencer are Casino Times, a production duo and shared musical project that has taken on a variety of diverse shapes and forms since its inception in 2010.

Moving deftly between genres, styles and sounds without once sacrificing their unique sonic identity, Casino Times’ discography showcases two gifted musical minds reimagining and repurposing the conventions of contemporary dance music.

Not just creators but curators, they’re the masterminds behind white-label edit series Casino Edits, responsible for turning out five instantly classic 12”s over six years that have seen widespread popularity and critical praise.

The duo returned to Omena in 2022 after previously releasing two complimentary concept EPs (Decoded / Recoded) to prepare their 2nd full-length record 'A Change In Motion'. A collection of tracks that are the epitome of their unconstrained style of electronic music, blending an array of captivating ideas and atmospheres to form a true voyage through sound.

Review: To celebrate notching up ten years in the game, London blog and party-turned-record label SlothBoogie has decided to offer-up their most ambitious release to date: an epic collection of previously unheard cuts from a mixture of imprint regulars and like-minded friends. There's naturally plenty to set the pulse racing throughout, with highlights including the sparkling jazz-funk-meets-deep house sunshine of Levan's "U R Beautiful In The Face", the deep, breakbeat-driven dreaminess of Philippa's "That's What I Mean By Free", the piano solo-heavy disco-house bump of Leatherette's "Your Love", and the dub disco-meets-acid house heaviness of "Rewind Run" by Pablot. Throw in similarly impressive contributions from Kassian, Luvless, Casino Times and Soul Wun (the classic jazz-house of "Thank You, St Germain") and you have a must-have collection.

Review: If you like your deep house on the more 'out there' side then this EP from Casino Times, AKA the London-based duo of Nicholas Church and Joseph Spencer, is one to check for sure. 'The Breakdown' blends space-y blips n' bleeps and house pianos atop a fractured, jazz-inspired backing, 'A Vision Of Time' has both Afro and progressive leanings and 'Rhythm Expander' is one for lazy, hazy afternoon sets. Remixes then drag the first two cuts onto the dancefloor, Panthera Kraus tech-ing up 'The Breakdown' to the max while Dawn Again rework 'Rhythm Expander' into a dubbed-out small hours excursion.

Review: Wolf Music doesn't release many albums, but when they do, the resulting set is invariably superb. Familiar Circles, Casino Times' long awaited first full length, is certainly quietly confident, with the British house duo delivering a range of hazy, evocative cuts shot through with a hazy sense of loved-up positivity. While breezy, Balearic deep house is their go-to sound - and there's much of that evident throughout - the album also includes nods to "Belfast"-era Orbital (the shuffling electro/deep house hybrid "Oddity"), early Funkineven (the jumpy, modern boogie bliss of "What (Miracle Beat)"), drowsy ambience ("Transit"), and early '90s style intelligent techno (the psychedelic electronics, ambient house melodies and fleeting acid lines of closer "Foundations (End)").

Review: Nicholas Church and Joseph Spencer's Casino Times collaboration makes its way onto Wolf Music for the first time with the four-track Wolf 23 EP. First up is the ravey, French house-influenced broken beat disco throwback "Principles", which leads into the rich sounding, piano sprinkled "AWD". Things become all the more low slung on the moody, rhode-driven "Stirling" featuring the Galchwer Lustwerk-esque vocals of High Hope, which Damiano von Erckert turns into a tribal, deep and dubby late night rhythm. A killer rework indeed.

Review: Having rightly made a name for themselves as purveyors of high-grade goodness, House of Disco continues to churn out the hits. Following hot on the heels of their collaborative compilation with Dikso Records comes another hook-up, this time with Kolour Recordings. Given the similarity of both labels' output, it's little surprise that House of Kolour is a bit of a winner. Musically, it's jam-packed with warm, groove-laden cuts that straddle the line where deep house, disco and re-edits meet. Highlights are, naturally, plentiful, from the shimmering beauty of Debonair's Fantastic Man rework and the funtime bounce of Hystereo's "Choral Twist", to the loopy-but-swinging soul of Sleazy McQueen's "Pretty Baby", and the hustling deep house goodness of Medlar's previously unheard rework of Noodleman's ace "Starlight".
