Reed & Radley

Reed & Radley

Chris Reed and Paul Radley's earliest adventures in clubland were in their native northern England, as the house music revolution took hold in the late 1980s.

But they didn't meet until moving to New Zealand around the dawn of the 21st century, kickstarting a 20-year journey as producers, DJs, radio hosts and promoters.

Focusing immediately on the deep and driving house sound that became their trademark, they made multiple contributions to NZ’s pioneering Reliable Recordings and released a signature EP on Nottingham’s enduringly influential DiY Discs.

After signing for Auckland's Grass Green, they recorded close to a dozen EPs for the label.

Releasing as Reed & Radley, Monkey Boots (nu disco) and Shallow Taxi Club (edits) they racked up a string of number ones on download stores.

Their releases have received support from some of the finest in underground music.

Chris continues to release as Mono/Loco, Neuro Mas and under his own name.

Fields Of May - (7:32) 123 BPM Hot
Review: According to the press release accompanying this latest single from New Zealand duo Reed and Radley, lead cut "Descenders of the Faith" is "the sound of a late '80s warehouse rave invaded by an android Liberace, as re-imagined by Buck Rogers in the 25th century". In other words, it's a retro-futurist gem, where classic house pianos and bubby electronics meet driving beats and sweaty late night charm. There's more of a straightforward, dub-flecked deep house feel to "Headstones", before "Fields Of May" takes a trip back to the halcyon days of house music via a chunky Chicago bassline, New Jersey grooves and classic Italian house riffs.

Keep On (Shallow Taxi Club hard dub) - (7:12) 122 BPM
Review: Now based in New Zealand, Reed & Radley learnt their trade in northern England in the early 1990s. That probably explains the unashamed New Jersey garage/New York house sound of both "Keep On" and "Don't Let Me Down". Both are impeccable tributes to the Easy Street/early Strictly Rhythm sound, complete with hip-wigglin' beats, choice vocal samples and fluid chords. "Don't Let Me Down" offers the added bonus of some classic organs and pianos amongst the skipping snares and classic vocal samples. As old-fashioned as it is, it's certainly an accurate tribute. The package is completed by a decent remix of "Keep On" from Shallow Taxi Club, whose "Hard Dub" sounds like Mr G doing NJ garage; an enticing prospect indeed.
