Reagan Grey

Vibrations EP

Local Talk

"Vibrations EP" by Reagan Grey takes us back to the early days of Local Talk when classic house and garage ruled but with a fresh perspective - remember when house was a feeling? Reagan does, and with Christie Nelson and Sean Jones presents an EP that really captures the spirit of golden-era NY house and amplifies its energy for the darker club settings while exploring both deep and soulful sounds throughout. Those elbows are gonna get a right workout!

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Rock solid house vibes here from Reagan Grey with two tracks given two takes for maximum versatility in the dance. It's got that classic, swung, NY house spirit throughout.

M-Scape

Urban Reconstruction

Local Talk

M-Scape is a solo project by Japanese DJ / producer/remixer Makoto Nakatani.

"Urban Reconstruction" is a release that blends house, techno and broken-beat in a very skillful way.

The title track is, dare we say, a Los Hermanos sounding track that holds both the energy and harmonies Gerald Mitchell would produce. 'I Do' is deep house on a broken beat tip while 'Freedom' has got more of the M-Scape sound, fusing house, jazz and techno in a contagious and elevating form, a must for lovers of Galaxy 2 Galaxy and the jazzier side of the Underground Resistance catalogue. Ending the EP is 'Let The Drums Play' which is not far from what electronic-jazz pioneer Mark de Clive-Lowe does and a great way to end an EP that makes a stellar debut on Local Talk.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: If you like UK broken beat like Bugz In The Attic, IG Culture & Kaidi Tathum; and hi-tech jazz like Los Hermanos and Galaxy 2 Galaxy, then this record literally could not be more perfect for you! A mix of two stylistically strong camps come together for a winning moment on GAMM.

Nico Lahs

Signals From Outta Space

Local Talk

Nico Lahs makes a triumphant comeback on Local Talk with a new release.

Those who favour the slower and more gritty house are in luck. Signals In Outer Space is yet another testament of Nico Lahs' ability to make house that doesn't belong to one style but rather cross several different ones with creativity and confidence.

Speaking of not belonging to one style, Marcellus Pittman delivers a remix that is unique and true to his sound.

Together Nico Lahs and Marcellus create a house 12" that is 100% Local Talk.

TRACK LISTING

A. Signals From Outer Space
A. Cruisin'

Caserta

Hip Hop / G'Head

Local Talk

When it comes to breathing new life into classic cuts Joseph Caserta is as good as it gets, proven many times on his imprint BridgeBoots. Making punchy and jackin' house sounding like it's been dipped in some secret sauce is another trick of his.

The first track on his Local Talk debut, "Hip Hop", comes in two flavours with the special sauce added on top. Both the Rap Mix and the Haus Dub got swinging drums and a meaty, stabby chord that keeps the energy tight.

On the flip, "g'Head" is a punchy and bumpy house jacker that takes a hold of you and doesn't let go. It's certainly got us bum shuffling here at Picc HQ! Recommended heat from the Local talk schtable.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Well rugged, elbows out basement house tackle that's got a bit of a Sheffield vibe about it.

TRACK LISTING

A1. Hip Hop (Rap Mix)
A2. Hip Hop (Haus Dub)
B1. G'Head (LA Mix)
B2. G'Head (Boston Dub)

Timothee Milton Feat. Angela Johnson

Love's Gonna Get You

Local Talk

French producer Timothee Milton debuts on Local Talk with a killer EP that fuses electronic rhythms and soulful vocals in a way that's typical of the long standing label. Written by Angela Johnson, "Love's Gonna Get you" is a deep but big room, vocal house jam that's got some hints of the 90s Jersey sound about it as well as subtly being a bit of a voguing anthem on the sly.

To give the package an extra edge, deep house connoisseur Hugo LX and boogie-house maestro Art Of Tones are enlisted for remixes. The former strips things back to a more delicate groove; aquaplaning syths and pads all combining with the gently shaking perx to create a more sublime and serene version of the OG. The Art Of Tones remix is equally strong but goes for a more uplifting approach and puts the funk, boogie and soul front & center, with live sounding disco drums and a much more organic palette guiding proceedings. Top stuff as always from the Local Talk mob!

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Soulful, sun-flecked house music from the unstoppable Local Talk camp. Three different takes on this catchy track ranging from disco, voguey house and a skitty, deep house twist.

TRACK LISTING

A. Love's Gonna Get You (Hugo LX Underwater Mix)
B1. Love's Gonna Get You (Art Of Tones Remix)
B2. Love's Gonna Get You (Main Mix)

Soulphiction With Netzer

Live @ BIX

Local Talk

Local Talk present a live recording with Soulphiction & Netzer from 2018, recorded live just a month before the official release of "Bizzness" the first of several releases Soulphiction and Local Talk released together.

"Bizzness" is by many considered a classic and had all the trade marks of a Soulphiction tune with its dusty soul and funk-infused house ingredients.
This live version really shows the vision and forward thinking of Michel Baumann using his Soulphiction moniker.

Also included on this release is a - as far as we know it - unreleased track called "Dileila Emergency Dub".

A track built around a heady deep house theme that captures the sweaty, back-in-the-day feel we all love to hear in a track.

A. Bizzness Live @ BIX
B. Dileila Emergency Dub Live @ BIX
