Review: Where to start with a name like ATFC? He is the genius behind "In And Out Of My Life", as well as that infectious hit "Bad Habit". Mark Knight and Co. have claimed that it's an honour to welcome such music royalty to the label."Strong 2 Survive" is a dramatic slice of house featuring a powerful female vocal and the package comes complete with a couple of remixes from Italian producer Dario D'Attis and German duo Tube & Berger.
Review: After celebrating 15 years in the business with a series of explosive parties in 2018, Mark Knight & Co. are taking already taking 2019 head on! Liverpool's Dale Howard is back with his third mighty effort for Toolroom and delivers the same quality you've come to expect from the man, following up efforts on Suara, Elrow and Gruuv. The uplifting and life-affirming main room "Rogue Keys" is sure to be an anthem in the making this year with its massive chords, while that classic NYC vibe of old on second effort "Hands Up" calls to mind the glory days of Strictly Rhythm or King Street of the late '90s. With its jacked diva vocals, Todd Terry-styled stabs and its sense of swing - this one is havin' it!
Review: Ascendant UK DJ/producer Eli Brown is back and doing his infectious thing as always, this time for UK experts Toolroom for his third release now - after some great stuff for top labels like Repopulate Mars, Kaluki and Truesoul to name but a few. The boy from Bristol is in fine form on the tongue rolling and hypnotic groove that is "Always" led by its sweet vocal, catchy melody and wicked sense of swing. This is supported by the bangin' "Need You" with its Dave Clarke style stabs, commanding diva vocal loops and truly sweltering rhythms that reach near tribal moments.
