Review: For this reviewer's money, Demuir is one of the finest house talents to have emerged in the past half-decade or so, and this latest three-tracker for long-running French label Robsoul doesn't disappoint. 'Love Against The World' is a deep-but-pacey jazzual groove that's bookended with vocal snips from Gil Scott-Heron's 'Home Is Where The Hatred Is', 'You Be Doin' It' is a loopy, almost Sneak-y affair (though sensitive ears may baulk at the "bitch" lyric) while 'Pull Up On Meh' is a more funktified cut and will definitely get those asses shakin' out on the floor. Good stuff all round.

Review: Pierre Cocordan started his production career as Dan Corco 20 years ago with a string of Motor City inspired techno and electro releases, but in recent times he's gravitated towards deep house. He's in straight up celebratory house party mode on this celebratory Robsoul Recordings outing, offering up a quartet of cuts that mostly combine chunky, club-ready beats with samples from vintage disco, Italo and new wave tunes. He opens with some swinging, loose-limbed disco-house in the shape of 'Lets Jamming Right'[sic], before delivering some far-sighted deep house/Motor City techno fusion via EP highlight 'Spring Tales'. 'Temptation' is a muscular chugger that successfully tools-up a classic Italo-disco jam, while 'The Way I Feel' re-imagines a much-loved '80s boogie classic as a Tiger & Woods style loop jam.

Review: Phil Weeks' long-running French house/deep house label Robsoul Recordings round up the best of their 2020 output in one high-VFM package. As per Robsoul's MO generally, you won't find a lot in the way of navel-gazing introspection or pointless, self-indulgent experimentalism here - Robsoul have always specialised in dropping beats to move your feets and this year's crop doesn't disappoint! The wonky, jazzy garage of The Mekanism's 'Signs', the raw jack of Joss Moog's 'So Good So Fresh', Demuir's strutty hip-houser 'Nice And Dutty' and Jade Cox's looping, west coast-ish 'Realise' are just some of the highlights of a fine collection.

Review: Deep house and disco collide on this four-track sampler EP from long-running French stable Robsoul. Jade Cox gets the ball rolling in funked-up disco-house fashion, looping up a female "dancing with my eyes, realise" vocal snippet atop a phat bassline and funk guitar chops. Paul Najero & Jr Quijada's 'Go Dancing' also channels late 90s filter disco - and is a surprisingly uptempo offering from a duo known for very deep grooves - before we take a left turn into warm, chunky deep house territory with Max Hebert's 'Push The Button'. Calabasa's 'Catching Wesley' then plays us out on a slightly more organic-sounding funk tip, albeit still with nice crunchy 4/4s in place to drive it along.

Review: Barely a month has passed since Dan Corco's Robsoul debut, "Dance Therapy", hit download stores, but already the long-serving - if frustratingly little-known - producer has delivered a sequel. Like its predecessor, there's much to enjoy, from the supple, loose-limbed shuffle of "U Can Try Tonight" - all electrofunk synthesizer flashes, soulful male vocal samples and chunky deep house grooves - to the hypnotic disco-house loops and bass breakdowns of closing cut "Tchoz". Sandwiched in between you'll find the bombastic peak-time bounce of boompty style workout "On The Bit" and the fluttering, synth-laden filtered disco-house excitement of "Phasys".

Review: Under the Krewcial alias, Pascal Garner has enjoyed an interesting career. He first rose to prominence in the late '90s as a hip-hop beat-maker, but for the last few years he's excelled at what his bio describes as "sample-based boom-bap house". If you want to know what that sounds like, check this expansive EP on Robsoul. It begins with a heavily chopped and filter disco-house cut in the French Touch style ("About You") and ends with a driving slab of early morning house rich in ear-catching piano riffs and chopped-up vocal samples. In between you'll find four more reasons to be cheerful, with the low-down sleaziness of "Davis", bustling "Nighttrain" and relaxed disco-house bumper "Flash" standing out.

Review: Former Large Music and Nite Grooves man Chris Stussy returns to Robsoul Recordings for a third time, bringing with him a quartet of tried and tested box jams for deep house floors that like it funky and chunky. He eases us in gently with "Boogie Trippin", a swinging, breakbeat-driven cut rich in tasty hip-hop vocal samples and sparkling riffs, before dialing into eyes-closed disco-house territory via the head-in-the-clouds bump of "Flow Distinction". "Next To You" is a more hypnotic, locked-in and bass-heavy roller, while EP closer "Selfless State" wraps snippets of hazy modern soul vocals and elongated organ chords around another rolling, loose-limbed deep house groove.

Review: More funked-up disco loops than you can shake an MPC at here, courtesy of Parisian specialists Robsoul. Label chez Phil Weeks taking up the reins and showing us hows it's done, as always. On the That House Groove EP, he serves up four examples of straight up boompty business - from the lo-slung shuffle of the title track (which features a bit 303 acid for good measure), as does the following track "Extra Dry" but this one's far more of a late night/heads down affair for basement parties. We particularly enjoyed the sexy, late night mood lighting of end track "Get On Up" which nails that classic deep house aesthetic just perfectly.

Review: West Coast producer Artruro Garces has been quietly been going about his business since the turn of the Millennium, releasing solid, club-ready material on a wealth of labels. For his sixth outing on Robsoul Recordings, the San Jose-based producer has served up a quartet of tracks that sit somewhere between classic West Coast chunkiness (think Onionz, Hipp-E and Halo etc.), the disco-fired bounce of DJ Sneak, and the kind of woozy, bass-heavy, tech-tinged deep house that Robsoul regularly releases. We're particularly enjoying the rubbery disco bass, restless cowbells and filter trickery of opener "Catch Me", though drowsy, piano-sporting deep house roller "Homebase" is also pretty darn good.

Review: Parisian house gangster and all round unstoppable force Phil Weeks is back: on Robsoul of course! With Raw Instrumental 2 be prepared for some rough and raw, looped up shenanigans that all wear the unmistakable grit of the Akai MPC on them. Starting off in fine form with the deep down and dirty jack of "The Rhythm" or the brazen disco flava of "Can't Live Without Your Love" or the lo-slung funk dynamics of "Night Drive". There's fine form later on and throughout, such as on the fittingly titled "House Head" which really works that infectious sense of swing that the big white box does oh so well. We must also mention the gutsy closer "Excess" which works those dusty loops into a mighty crescendo just like the Chi-town master DJ Sneak could do back in the day.

Review: Natural Rhythm are Thomas White and Pete Williams and their tracks have been secret weapons in Robsoul boss Phil Weeks' DJ sets for over a decade. On Tribute, he reissues some of his personal favourites. Said to be born in a garage in Los Angeles in the late '90's, you can hear that Natural Rhythm was a meeting of passionate musical minds who created their own style, with releases on local imprints such as Seasons Recordings, Earthtones and their own eponymous imprint. "Something Big" starts out with with their signature funky disco loops in full effect; they're really at home on Robsoul! "Chicago Nights" is an edit of a certain Billy Ocean classic that we can never get enough of, while "Energized" rocks that really deep and funky bass over smooth Rhodes and tribal drums sampled from a certain Submission track.

Review: Given the volume of records he's released over recent years, it would be fair to call DJ Wild prolific. Here, he returns to Robsoul Recordings with four more chunks of bumpin' deep house goodness. The Frenchman aims for the jugular from the start, basing the rolling "WIlbeats" around densely layered drums, heavy sub-bass and the repeated ringing of a telephone. The disco-tinged "Escape" is a little more rubbery but no less percussive, while "The Vinyl Killer" blends vintage, rave-era riffs and stabs, with the kind of sub-heavy groove that was once a hallmark of Derrick Carter releases. Arguably best of all, though, is "I Love You More", a sweet disco-house jam that makes extensive use of the Rene & Angela boogie classic of the same name.

Review: Given his vast experience - his debut single dropped some 15 years ago - it's perhaps unsurprising that Phil Weeks rarely drops a duff release. This latest three-tracker for his long-running Robsoul Recordings imprint delivers more highly desirable deep house gear. The title-track is particularly impressive, lacing Marvin Gaye vocal samples and seductive strings over a rolling, disco-influenced house groove. There's more of an old school Chicago feel to "Where Did The Night Go", which makes great use of a killer analogue synth bassline, subtle chords and hustling, shaker-laced percussion. Arguably best of all, though, is "I Can Make You Dance", a deliciously sweaty P-funk-goes-deep house concoction made all the more effective by liberal use of filters.

Review: France's legendary swing-house producer Phil Weeks drops a new two-tracker on Robsoul. As per usual, it's nothing but sweet party vibes from Mr Weeks, who brings through his inimitable, filtered sample style to the floor. "Bad Chance Went Thru My Mind" is a disco-leaning house number complete with seductive vocal chops and sliding shots of percussion. "Baila Baila" is more of a DJ tool but it too comes chock-a-block with circling vocal samples and Weeks' typical flair. If you're into his previous stuff then this will certainly not disappoint.

Review: Paris-based deep house veteran Phil Weeks is usually a reliable source of bittersweet, floor-friendly fodder. This new three-tracker for his own Robsoul label is another winner. "Live at Palladium", with its jazzy keys, warm groove and soulful vocal samples (what appears to be Marvin Gaye, no less), is impeccable; a real winter warmer. The edit-not-edit deep disco house of "You Want My Love" - all filtered vocals, shuffling grooves, twittering flutes and subtle pianos - is, if anything, even better. The closing track, "Demain A Jamais", is similarly inspirational, sounding as it does like a cross between Pepe Bradock's "Deep Burnt" and chunky, bumpin' Chicagoan deep house.
