Artist: John Larner & Slater Hogan
Title: Movin
Label: Odds and Ends
Format: Vinyl
Release Date: January 11, 2005
Audio Sample: Listen

Funky, chunky house is well orchestrated here by Larner & Hogan, who have appeared on a multitude of labels such as Mouthful, Hip Therapy and Aroma. The original mix gives you a funky deep bassline that echoes throughout your body with a grinning good vocal sample breakdown, reminiscing of disco funk days of past. Q-Burns Abstract Message remixes it into an interesting analog dub, but Juan Zapata (of East Coast Boogiemen) and his brother Hugo rock the house with their monster funk, stompy dub mix that screams peaktime, deep house bliss.

Artist: Phillipe B. and Antoine C.
Title: Moved On You
Label: Electron
Format: Vinyl
Release Date: 04/27/2004
Audio Sample: Listen

These two fierce French producers do enough damage on their own, but they decided to sadistically bring their floorfilling finesse together and present you the new jump off. The title track is comprised of a chunky Moroder-styled bassline mixed with Yaz’s Don’t Go lyrics, intensified with tweaked effects and background synth lines. The more you play the song, the more it tampers with the crowd’s legal adrenaline levels and clones the smiles across the floor. It’s proof that Antoine and Philippe keep up their usual naughty nocturnal antics.

Label: Focused Music

Audio Sample: Listen

Christoph Banning and Nelson Perez are back with a big-time bang as they split this slab of licorice pizza with Idaho’s music magician Mike Balance. Filtered house reigns supreme on this new Shutterflooders release that will smoke one too many warehouses with sweat and steam. Funky Chunky tweaks a cool loop to thick edible bites endlessly, while Mike’s B-side claims the trophy for back-bending bionic grooviness that’s continuing to prove effective on lab monkeys and grungy mallrats, long after the clubs have closed.
