Static Dancer - (6:51) 126 BPM Hot
Orbital - (6:36) 127 BPM
Review: Following a stellar first year in 2018, the These Things Take Time label returns with their highest profile EP to date. It comes from Californian artist Taylor Freels under his now familiar Urulu alias. The experienced artist flexes his production muscles on "Metroid", a decidedly spacey deep house number that wraps intergalactic chords and Ron Trent style instrumentation around a tough beat, before joining the dots between Motor City futurism, electro and deep house on the similarly inclined "Polaris". "Static Dancer" sees Freels move further towards classic UK tech-house territory (think late 90s, rather than 2019), while standout cut "Orbital" sits somewhere between sub-heavy San Francisco dub house and out--of-this-world ambient techno.

Minor Forms EP
Minor Forms - (5:44) 126 BPM Hot
Destino Tikal (Cuerpo Pulsante mix) - (5:48) 128 BPM
D.R.M - (6:16) 132 BPM
Quasimidi (Explored) - (6:54) 132 BPM
Review: An EP here from Germany's Tartelet that'll suit those who like their house finely crafted and unafraid of taking risks. 'Minor Forms' itself is an Afro-house cut that stands out from the pack via its use of some familiar James Brown-via-rave samples and a surprisingly meaty bassline, 'Destino Tikal (Cuerpo Pulsante Remix) blends African, Latin and jazz influences and would work a treat on summer terrraces, 'D.R.M' applies standard deep house production values but at a pacey 132bpm, while finally 'Quasimidi (Explored)' is another Afro/tribal affair with an intense, dark feel that's almost redolent of very early jungle/D&B.

Mushroom Valve - (5:49) 122 BPM
Flight Pattern - (5:49) 125 BPM Hot
Review: Urulu is a DJ/producer based in Berlin that is no stranger to Andy Hart's Melbourne based label. The Californian (real name Taylor Freels) previous released Greetings From Namek on the label back in 2016, in addition to further killer cuts for the likes of Amadeus and Saft. Mushroom Valve EP features four quality tunes that explore the American's newfound love of acid sounds: from the funky breaks driven groove of "Body Drum", the neon-lit ambient house of "Mellow Yellow" awash in shimmering FM synthesis tones, or "Flight Pattern" where he really saves the best for last. This rough and bouncy number is just as looped-up and dusted down as we like our house music.

Cold Ravioli - (5:10) 128 BPM
Review: Label-hopping deep house head Urulu (real name Taylor Freels) has come a long way since he made his debut on Amadeus back in 2012. Here he returns to the label for the first time since, bringing with him a quartet of sumptuous, saucer-eyed treats. Freels sets the tone via the soft focus loveliness of ambient-goes-broken beat gem "Limp Lover (Intro)", before diving further into hybrid IDM/dream house pastures on the chiming and sunset-friendly "The Nautilus". His rarely seen electro influences come to the fore on the deep space shuffle of acid-flecked dancefloor soundscape "Armadillo", while "Cold Ravioli" sees him wrap dreamy piano flourishes and rich deep house textures around a snappy breakbeat house groove.

Review: Ten years of tech house powerhouse Exploited's exploits - pardon the pun! A born and bred Berliner, Shir Khan started the label in his home city in 2007. The imprint now plays host to a who's who in the current tech-house climate - including Adana Twins, Doctor Dru, Claptone, Joyce Muniz, Urulu and Cocolores to name a few. Its artists have been receiving full support from tastemakers such as Pete Tong, Soul Clap, Wolf & Lamb and Kraak & Smaak. All the usual suspects appear here: many golden oldies and even some newbie surprises too - perfect for the Christmas season and to forecast trends moving forward into 2018. To prove their relevance, they've served up a whopper of a compilation: over five dozen tracks showcasing their illustrious discography. We are certain that these are timeless grooves and will prove to be just as relevant another decade.

Some of these go as far back as 2009! Take for instance Malente & Dex feat. Analogik's "Gipsy Kings" which homed in that whole loopy latin house trend - popularised by similar tunes like "We No Speak Americano". Swedish electro house dons Zoo Brazil appear as well, with their 2012 dancefloor hit "Rock The House", then get deep and slinky with Moodymanc's 2013 sleeper hit "Joy" (Ralph Lawson Dub). They were even doing jazzy/dusty deep house as far back as 2011, like on Homework's "Whipped Cream". Remember Serge Santiago's remix of Murphy Jax's "Let's Get To It" featuring the inimitable Mike Dunn? It's here!

But when best describing the label's success thus far, we'd have to give honorable mentions to the true staples of the label. The legendary Chicagoan James Curd (formerly one half of the Greenskeepers) has kept on going from his new home of Adelaide, Australia and served up some of his best work in years. The emotive and bittersweet "Forever My Friend" is just one example. Likewise, Belgium's Compuphonic appears several times also - his recent hit from earlier this year "Metropolis" appears in all its soulful and evocative glory. Here's to another 10 guys, cheers!

Review: Having made a significant impression via killer releases from Harvey Sutherland, M5K and Auslander, Voyage Recordings attempts to enhance their reputation further via a four-track blast of bumpin' deepness from Steve Urulu. The journeyed Los Angeles producer hits the mark from the off, combining swinging, low-slung beats and fluid, looped pads on floor-friendly opener "Night Tube". An extended bongo passage gives way to dreamy chords and tactile, late '80s style synth bass on the spacey "Orion", before the horizontal rush of IDM/ambient house tribute cut "9045xy" takes over. The EP's final moment, the wonderful "Lullaby", continues on this theme, expertly combining drowsy, drifting chords, starry electronics and a speaker-rattling sub-bass line.

Review: Germany's Dirt Crew have always put out top quality house and techno over the years, with the likes of Adultnapper and Ricardo Villalobos sprouting up on their catalogue from time to time. However, they're also experts in delivering music by new and interesting talent out there in the field such as this latest collaborative EP by Urulu and Steve Huerta, who between them have seen an impressive run of form over the last few years. If you're into swinging, percussive-fuelled dub house the this is the ticket for you, and these guys mean business when it comes to the dancefloor. We're particularly find of Urulu's "Laura Don't Touch That", a discofried house bomb that just keeps on givin'.

Review: Matt Swift's Shabby Doll imprint has enjoyed a strong 2014, delivering quality singles from the likes of Nail, South West Seven, Ste Roberts and James Welsh. Here, Swift turns to fast-rising, LA-based Londoner Urula, AKA producer Taylor Freels. Opener "Banshee Boardwalk" builds a killer deep house cut around a classic rock break, with hazy chords and picturesque melodies slowly stretching out over the crunchy, live-sounding groove. There's a classic piano house feel about the hustling "Heaven Unlimited", while Daj hook-up "BeforeHandMan" is a classic chunk of Detroit-influenced tech-soul at a deep house tempo. Finally, James Welsh remixes the latter track, turning it into an alien chunk of foreboding deep house soul.

Review: Londoner-in-L.A Urulu (AKA producer Taylor Freels) seems to have an instinctive grasp of booth groove and melody. Previously, he's impressed via releases on Needwant, Dirt Crew and Manucci's Misstress. Here, he makes his debut for Jacques Renault and company's Brooklyn-based Let's Play House imprint. While the bold melodies and shuffling house rhythms we've come to expect from Freels are still present - most notably on the vivid, synth-laden deep house-goes-Balearic bliss of "Moon Unit" and Ben la Dash's eyes-wide-shut rework of the same track - he also displays an impressive desire to mix it up. So, "Sound Like Sumo" fuses deep broken beats with heady chords and delicious P-funk squiggles, while "Lunar Larry" delivers enveloping chords, soft-focus grooves and baggy soundscapes.

Rest - (5:34) 110 BPM
Review: More from the ever-reliable Urulu, this time on similarly impressive Sccucci Manucci offshoot Manucci's Mistress. The striking "Believer" - all stirring strings, tech-tinged deep house rhythms and expertly placed breakdowns - sets the tone, before the Swag style clanking tech-house blast of "Drowning" drags us further towards afterhours dancefloors. The beats on "Lost Time" are blessed with a little extra swing - helped, in no small part, by some expert percussion programming - while the effortlessly soulful "Rest" offers a dewy-eyed trip into sensuous, straight-up deep house territory. All killer, no filler, as you'd expect from Urulu.

Review: Exploited's semi-regular "mini compilation" series continues, with Shir Khan collecting together a quintet of new cuts from the label's extended roster. Michelle Owen kicks things off with the Inner City-ish hustle of "What Say You", before Ray & Kjevic drop a wonky chunk of retro-futurist soulfulness in the shape of "No Choice". Elsewhere, Urulu's "It's Over" delivers deepness and bass-propelled bump in equal measure, while Sishi Rosch's "Movedatass" channels the spirit of Miami bass into a rave era chugger. Pavel Petrov's "Violet View", meanwhile, delivers a luscious fusion of intricate pianos, deep house atmospherics and nu-disco synths.

Steve Huerta - "Long Way Home" - (7:56) 118 BPM
Review: Urulu, previously best known for his work on Exploited, here joins forces with fellow Los Angeles native Steve Huerta for a bumpin' trip into subterranean deep house territory. The EP's one collaborative track, "Things I Didn't Mean", comes on like classic Todd Edwards (circa that remix of St Germain's "Alabama Blues") given a 2013 deep house makeover (think bold basslines, skipping garage drums and cut-up vocal edits). Urulu's woozy "Be There" snakes between the speakers on a wave of distant vocals and lazy analogue drums, while Huerta's "Long Way Home" is decidedly baggy - all R&B vocal samples, warm pads and hazy pianos. A decent package is completed by a tough Revenge rework of "Be There".

Review: Having previously impressed with his left-of-centre Friends of Friends imprint, Leeor Brown has teamed up with LA pal David Fisher to launch Young Adults, a new label dedicated to the fluid sounds currently coming out of the disco and house scenes. This first label sampler sets their stall out impressively. Starting with the brilliant "Jus Us" by LA's own Suzanne Kraft - a Paul Simpson style proto-house jam with a deliciously old skool vocal - the EP works through a variety of comfy, touchy-feely flavas. There's a dash of loopy deep house goodness from Dead Rose Music Company, some lush, cowbell-driven vocal deepness from Urulu and a touch of retro-futurist acid goodness from LOL Boys and Grown Folk. Recommended.
