Review: Vibraphone Records kicks off its 2024 with a mighty release that pays great tribute to the city of Detroit. Basic Realities is the artist behind the originals and the first is 'B-9', a percussive, loopy tech roller with vocal sounds and dreamy pads drifting in and out of focus. Motor City icon Kevin Saunderson then steps up to remix and does so with more warm and surging basslines and thudding drum funk. 'Viento Lunar' cuts loose on some inventive melodies and cosmic rays of energy that unfold over tinny beats and 'Endless Clouds' rounds out with some more dusty drums and nice spangled synths that surge through the cosmos.

2016's more recent Liquid Time EP and it is the absolutely euphoric track "Body Multiple". This one's a driving, Detroit influenced groove powered by addictive dub chords and emotive sax lingering in the background - choice!

Review: Hot on the heels of the recent Basis Realities EP comes this killer release from Tai Davis. Returning to the label after a five-year hiatus, fans of Vibraphone's warm house sound will find much to love on "Synth Love". Based on a warm, squelchy bass and robust tribal drums, it also sees Davis conjure up a tripped-out chord sequence that transports the track to house music's outer most limits. Like a fusion of 90s UK deep house and Underground Resistance at their most mellow, "Synth Love" is one of those rare tracks that is destined to transcend genres and scenes.

Review: Basic Realities follows last year's fine Summer Love EP with another sublime deep house release. Inspired by Chicago deepness, topped off with Italo melodies and Lone-style psychedelia, Celestial Shadows will lift the spirits, even in the depths of winter. The original version resounds to sweeping, tripped out chords, while the 'Deep Night' take sees Basic Realities lean more towards Chicago house with hissing percussion and a robust rhythm to the fore. Adding to the celebratory feeling are the layered vocal samples that unravel throughout the arrangement. "Cosmic Garou" also has a dance floor feeling, but on this occasion, soulful vocals are combined with new age pipes to create a distinctive club track.

Review: Previously known as The True Underground Sound of Rome, Stefano Curti alongside Mauro Tamino and Stefano De Carlo were Minimal Vision and were responsible for a couple of the classiest and most ear-pleasing Italian deep house records of all time on Vibraphone. Here's another previously unreleased techno epic that's once again full of soul and emotion titled "4 AM" and it's a true zeitgeist of the magical early '90s which comes with two more different mixes, while the hi-tech soul of "La Propriete Industrielle" once again features that distinct Detroit style energy throughout.

Review: Previously, the reborn Vibraphone label has concentrated on delivering digital reissues of many of the melodious deep house gems the Italian imprint released in the 1990s. Here they flip the script, serving up a selection of previously unheard 21st century gems from up-and-coming producers. Tai Davis kicks things off with a quartet of cuts that variously touch on vintage Chicagoan jack-tracks ('That Acid'), classic deep house ('Crazy F', 'Watching the Clouds', and intergalactic acid ('Fusion'), before Daisuke Kondo delivers the wonderfully druggy 'Mental Crack' (a tipsy, off-kilter, late-night delight) and slick 'Telepathy'. Elsewhere, Shatalov's 'Its Not Exist' [sic] is a crackling trip through spacey deep house and Tade Kop's 'The Rhythm' is a glitchy, Isolee style minimal house delight.

Review: For their latest deep dive into the back catalogue, reborn Italian house label Vibraphone has trawled through the vaults of hard-working producer Stefano Curti, who released a wealth of high-quality material under a variety of aliases throughout the 1990s. There's much to enjoy from start to finish, with Curti's then trademark style - think a mixture of organ-rich US deep house, Italian dream house, the psychedelic colour of early Goa trance and warming, head-calming ambient house - guaranteeing ear-pleasing fun throughout. Our picks of a very strong bunch include the sleazy, acid-sporting techno-jack of 'Lemon Loop', the buzzing-but-spacey warmth of 'Mono Lite', the early morning wonkiness of 'They Do Exist (Dub Trip Mix)' and the melodious deep house sunniness of 'Cosmic Wind'.

Review: After the widespread success of the first Minimal Vision compilation on the resurgent Vibraphone Recordings, The True Underground Sound Of Rome return with a second volume that takes in tracks made over a 23 year period. What comes across is how consistent the sound is, whenever an individual jam was made. The same heavy-lidded melodics and easy-funking rhythm sections prevail across all nine cuts here, at times hitting the uplifting pace of "Vertigo" or heading into the meditative pastures of "Sea Bird", but always maintaining that quintessential Vibraphone feeling. The diggers will be happy to snag the reissued tracks as well as discovering completely fresh material from Rome's premier deep house institution.

Review: Despite only a few releases, the electronic deep house sound of Vibraphone Records and the production team behind it, had a major impact on the international 1990's dance scene. The original 90's vinyl are now considered precious collectors items. Revitalized by an increasingly new young audience interest, this label has reached a cult status and it has now been re-launched via Juno Records. For the first time in twenty years TTUSR has produced three new exclusive tracks which will be included on this 12" EP entitled Liquid Time.
