Review: If record labels are extended musical families, then Shall Not Fade's is bigger than most. Viggo Dyst is perhaps not the most high-profile member of that vast and growing family, but the Swedish producer is certainly an active one. This two-tracker marks his third outing on the Bristol-based imprint in less than two years. It boasts a candidate for the most celebratory and life-affirming club cut of 2023 - the gorgeous, 130 BPM house romp that is 'Did We Break Up', where rushing piano motifs, colourful chords, cut-up vocal samples and an addictive bassline catch the ear - and a deeper, more intergalactic-sounding gem called 'You Got'. Built around a minimalist, custom-made broken house-meets-two-step beat, ultra-spacey pads and hip-hop vocal samples, it's a genuinely glassy-eyed treat.

Review: During last year's numerous pandemic lockdowns, Theo Kottis found himself dreaming of sweaty, euphoric peak-time dancefloors. So much so, in fact, that he decided to join forces with "life and soul of the party" (his words) Busola and make something suitably excitable and anthemic. 'The Mirror' is undoubtedly a feelgood, party-hearty affair, with the pair peppering a bouncy, bass heavy old school house groove with spoken word snippets, MK style Korg M1 riffs, bold piano stabs and undulating analogue bass. Kottis solo cut 'Onda' is similarly cheery and carefree, with delay-laden piano riffs, gorgeous pads, jazzy Rhodes fills and stirring string samples rising above deeper bass and even crunchier, crisper drums.

Review: With DJs like Annie Mac and Patrick Topping already supporting her work, Meg Ward is tipped for big things, and this debut release for Shall Not Fade will further build her profile. The title track is a breezy, high-octane affair, with Ward combining insistent acid licks with tight claps and a steely rhythm. It makes for a musical but impactful piece of techno. On "Real Hawt", she opts to use different tactics. Deploying a looped vocal sample over a rolling groove, the emerging UK artist adds hardcore stabs to the arrangement to devastating effect. Rest assured we'll be hearing more about Meg Ward soon.

Review: Whenever a new Shall Not Fade drop arrives in the store, the crowds tend to gather and the excitement rises drastically, with this latest two tracker offering from Duke Boara being another experimental dive across the UKG spectrum. We open up with the warbling bassline action and blissful soundscaping of 'Brain Theory', a weighty title track that explores not only hard hitting subby-pressure, but also a vibrant backdrop of synth pads and unorthodox melody. On the flip to this, we then jump into 'Sapphire', a higher energy scuttler, focussed in floating synthy flutters and booming chord progressions for a much more abstract b-side. Very tidy!

Review: Next up on Shall Not Fade, a swing back into the more breaks-inspired side of their garage roots, welcoming the explosive combination of both Maroki & Hypnos for a glittering two-tracker, steeped in original underground flavour. We open up with the wistful pad sweeps and charming synthetic backdrops of 'Sad Legs', a steadily evolving masterpiece that showcases the emotive side of garage and breaks. On the flip, another synth-heavy display of sonic wizardry in 'Glass Axe', with this creations melodies almost working like a retro sci-fi soundtrack, focussing on eerie reverbs and electronic instrumentation for a very classy B-side. Top work

Review: In our opinion, Laurence Guy has put out some of his best material on Shall Not Fade, with last year's The Sun is Warm and Directly Above You EP being particularly potent. The Bristol-based producer is in fine form on his latest missive for Kieran Williams' prolific label, too. Opener 'Love Theme For The Morning After' is breezy, sun-soaked and impeccably emotive, with what sound like manipulated orchestral samples and slowly unfurling chords bobbing away atop a crunchy deep house beat. Title track 'Mutual Excitement is a Wonderful Thing' is arguably even better, sitting somewhere between early morning sample-house and the early works of James Blake, while 'Certain (To a Certain Extent' delivers a devilishly drowsy blend of reverb-soaked electric piano motifs, distant broken-house beats and tons of atmospheric touches.

Review: James Denny may not get the media coverage of some of his contemporaries, but his track record - which includes singles on REKIDS, Hot Creations and Crosstown Rebels - is exemplary. It makes sense, then, that Shall Not Fade boss Kieran Williams has added him to the label's ever-expanding roster. Opener 'Dans La Nuit', a charging and sample-rich slab of peak-time house joy rich in jazzy guitar licks, bouncy beats and 'Knights of the Jaguar' sty;e synth strings, is the pick of a very strong bunch, but the other two tracks on show are excellent too. King Crowney collaboration 'Dance With Me' is a sizzling and humid, percussion-and-trumpet-heavy slab of Latin house hedonism, while 'Anni 80' sees him create hands-aloft gold out of unfussy house beats and synth-heavy samples from a long-forgotten 1980s treat.

Review: Over the last 15 years, few producers have released quite as much high-quality dancefloor fare as Alan Fitzpatrick. Somewhat predictably, his latest EP - a label debut for Bristol-based imprint Shall Not Fade - is another must-check missive. He's scored something of a coup, too, by recruiting Chicago 'ghetto-dance' legend DJ Deeon to add his evocative spoken word vocals to 'Shake That Thing', a deliciously spacey chunk of analogue house brilliance whose evocative chords and restless rhythm track will bring joy to many dancefloors this summer. Rising star DJOKO remixes, doffing a cap to the early 2000s work of UK tech-house stalwarts Swag on a deliciously swinging, loose-limbed rub. Fitzpatrick then delivers a bouncy, life-affirming chunk of disco-house hedonism, 'Learning to Love', which is pure pleasure from start to finish.

Review: Spanish producer Hurlee has a decent track record of delivering the kind of heavy-but-tasteful deep house tracks that sound just as good at home on headphones as they do surging from club sound systems. He's at it again on Lonely Days, his first solo EP on Shall Not Fade. He hits the ground running with the title track, a tough and hypnotic number full of hazy, late-night stabs, dreamy pads and chunky bass, before opting for a more melodically expansive, synth-heavy sound on the swinging, peak-time bump of 'Discover Nights'. He continues in a similar vein on closing cut 'Tiny Bell', where woozy, sun-kissed pads, star-lit electronics and jazzy bass wrap around crunchy deep house drums.

Review: Man-of-the-moment Laurence Guy has been in a rich vein of form for a while now. In the last three years he's released must-have-music on Church, Monologues, Mule Musiq, Studio Barnhus and now Shall Not Fade. "The Sun Is Warm & Directly Above You" marks his first appearance on the latter imprint and contains three stunning tracks. Our pick of the bunch is undoubtedly the soft focus, slow-burn deep house emotion of the title track, a cut that sees him wrap yearning, high register male vocal samples, atmospheric vocal samples and atmospheric field recordings around a tactile, shuffling groove. "This Isn't My Best Life" offers a more energetic take on the same melancholic, piano-laden idea, while EP opener "Untitled Needs" is jazz-house for the Mall Grab generation.

Review: Earlier in the year, Hackney twosome Kassian joined Shall Not Fade following a few years spent hopping between labels including Phonica White, Heist and Groovence. There's a more forthright, peak-time-ready feel to the pair's second Shall Not Fade outing, with opener 'Breathe' offering an alluring amalgamation of driving beats, stabbing bass, trippy female vocal samples and echoing, warehouse-ready motifs. They opt for a cheery, sparkling and sun-kissed sound on the bouncy, melody-rich 'Aerial', before wrapping shimmering synth sounds around a crunchy breakbeat, glassy-eyed deep house chords and UKG organ riffs on excellent closing cut 'London Orbital'.

Review: Since debuting on Belters in 2018 with a bouncy and melodious chunk of hip-house influenced deep house pleasantness, t e s t p r e s s has built their reputation via a string of self-released singles. Here the Glasgow-based duo debuts on Shall Not Fade with a trio of techno-tempo numbers shot through with sepia-tinted rave nostalgia. Opener 'Wil U Uptae' is a piano-sporting retro-futurist slammer that's as weighty as it is rush-inducing, while title track 'Tell Ya' is an even more surging and breathless slab of warehouse-ready techno of the sort that Shed's Head High project does so well. Best of all, though, is 140 BPM banger 'Joemama', where handclap-heavy beats, ragged acid riffs, layered percussion and cut-up hip-hop samples combine to devastating effect.

Review: Following last year's EP on Unknown to the Unknown, Third Son aka Joseph Price drops a three-tracker for Shall Not Fade. It kicks off with the shuffling drums and warbling acid of "Head To Toe In Your Own Clothes", with Price weaving in some high-pitched vocals to add an extra, trippy layer. The title track follows in a similar vein as he deploys a booming bass and surging filters in association with tight drum patterns and tweaked 303 lines. "Vibing With the Force of a Thousand Suns" is another superb roller - this time, it's all about the acid soaring in unison with shimmering filters.

Review: The Shall Not Fade parade continues to roll forward, with an explosive collection of remixes now on display from Chrissy, giving 'You Don't Have To Worry' a number of top quality refixes, perfect for sending dances nationwide into an absolute frenzy. First, the 'Big Ang Garage' remix takes the track down a breaks-driven, nostalgia-flood avenue of swiftness, focussing on glittering chords and tidy drum work, before the 'Big Ang Rave' version pulls things back for a more piano-driven feeling. Finally, the 'Paul & Shark' remix gives the track an even sharper feeling, focussing on clicky percussion and heavy vocal delays, to round off a top spectrum of spicy reworks.

Review: Two weeks shy of 12 months since his last outing on Shall Not Fade, Rob Glassett dusts down the Fold alias and unveils his first single of 2019. As expected, Glassett starts in confident mood via the deep and drowsy "Some Common Sense", where a variety of vocal snippets and jazzy samples ride sweaty drums and a dubby bassline, before doffing a cap to vintage jazz-house on the sun-kissed breeziness of "Writers Anthem" (those of a certain vintage may recognize the main sample, which was used on a classic Ninja Tune release). "Onion Gravy" is a chunky, sample-rich deep house box jam of the sort popularized by S3A, while "Astral Planes" brilliantly joins the dots between intergalactic Detroit techno and dreamy, ultra-deep house.

Review: Elation, nostalgia and melancholy have always been the driving emotional forces behind the high-grade lo-fi deep house works of Adam Ansley AKA DJ Poolboi. It's for this reason that Shall Not Fade has picked up Ansley for the debut release on the label's new Classic Cuts series, which focuses on "feel good sounds of all styles, with a nostalgic edge". The Austin-based producer has naturally hit the brief. Opener 'Ghosts' is a bluesy chunk of lo-fi jazz-house/deep house fusion, while the track that follows, 'Tu Tienes Mi Carazone', is a wonderfully tactile chunk of breakbeat-driven deep house. With its twinkling pianos, bongo-laced deep house grooves and heart-aching vibe, 'Elope' reminded us of old Aqua Bassino jams on F Communications, while 'Before You Go' is ultra-deep, smooth and spacey.

Review: As her relatively recently Heist and Aus releases proved, Cinthie Christl has become an expert at creating nostalgic-sounding tracks that offer subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) references to US house cuts of the 1990s. On this debut Shall Not Fade outing, Christl continues in this vein, first via the rolling beats, undulating analogue bass and spacey musical motifs of 'Tough Times'. She then joins the dots between late '90s Strictly Rhythm dubs and bouncy New Jersey garage grooves ('Shuffle & Swing'), before laying down a stellar slice of dubby and sub-heavy deep house hypnotism ('Bossa').'Time To F', a breezy and sun-splashed affair marked out by steppers-influenced deep house beats, squelchy bass and restless riffs, rounds of the EP in fine style.

Review: Next up from the Shall Not Fade team, we see them link up with Ruf Dug for a sumptuous new dancefloor-ready creation from Ruf Dug, who unveils his fabulous new 'Manc Sunset' project. We begin with the charming, sunshine laden arrangements and sweeping melodic structures of 'Addicted', which features a terrific original vocal from Danielle Moore. This also comes complete with a high energy rethink from the one and only Shanti Celeste, who adds an extra touch of disco-ready spice to the recipe. Next, 'Manc Sunset' itself explores colourful harmonic structure and unpredictable rhythms, before 'Lo-fi Roller' does exactly what it says on the tin, with some interesting vocal manipulation to match.

Review: Still reeling from the release of his debut LP Between Fragments last year - Cologne-based artists Kolter, something of house music mainstay, brings his sound to Shall Not Fade for the first time. Turning in a luscious four track EP, it brings with it one-and-a-half collaborations, the first being the lead cut - "Please Come To My Show" - with Leo Pol, who not only co-produces but also lends his soulful vocals to the mix; with the second being a remix from Berlin house darling Cinthie of the track "Up In The Sky". With a strong '90s mid-west and Chicago sound permeating this EP, get deep and smoove with "DX7 Together" with that real town funk bassline and undeniable deepness. Welcome back Kolter.

Review: Almost three years to the day from his last outing for Shall Not Fade, a contribution to their occasional 'Basement Trax' series, Huxley returns to KW's prolific imprint with a rock-solid four-track EP. The long-serving producer kicks things off in style via 'Cuttin' Corners', a bouncy, jazzy and breezy chunk of UKG-influenced deep house warmth, before opting for a darker, more excitable and warehouse-ready sound on certified throb-job 'Give Me Love'. Arguably even better is the tracky, hypnotic and percussion-rich deep tribal house number 'MYHEART', which is the kind of thing we think Junior Vasquez could have played at the Sound Factory, while 'Love Lifting' is a swirling, stomping, all-action treat.

Review: Two years on from an impressive first appearance on Lobster Theremin, Luz1e transfers to Shall Not Fade and notches up another rock solid label debut. She hits the ground round running with title track "Ridin", a bustling chunk of ghetto-house influenced breakbeat deepness full of warm chords and cut-up vocal snippets, before joining the dots between two-step garage, breakbeat and drowsy deepness on the arguably even better "Hyperfunk (Deep Break Cut)". She reaches for the alien, acid style electronics on the dreamy ghetto-tech rush of "Damn Boi", while "Early Reflections" is another ear-catching trip into woozy, glassy-eyed breakbeat territory complete with glacial pads and redlined analogue bass.

Review: More throwback house sounds from the Shall Not Fade camp, this time courtesy of Irish producer Kettama (Unknown To The Unknown/Homage) who is really blowing up at the moment. The Eastside Ave EP clearly takes it cues from early '90s stateside sounds : the soulful and heartfelt bounce of the title track honouring the vibe of The Windy City, while "Majik" channels the vibe of classic Kerri Chandler. "In The Garage" sees him do his best impression of Mood II Swing, while "Falling Down" hammers the message home in timeless Jersey style.
