Theo Parrish Feat. Marcellus Pittman

Ooh Bass

New Theo Parrish 12" and it's with long time collaborator and fellow Detroiter Marcellus Pittman - officially the nicest 3 Chair and a huge fan of our dear Manchester - big ups Marcellus if you're reading!

Anyway, as you'd expect from these upper ring dwellers of the dance music pyramid, "Ooh Bass" is an unmissable club jam. Woozy and rich; it utilizes spiritual organ chords and gospely vox, plus pressure cooked drums to create the kinda house-music-as-a-church jam synonymous with the Motor City. All with the pair's iconic MPC usage and masterful thud. It’s a doozy that’s for sure!


TRACK LISTING

A. Ooh Bass
B. Ooh Bass

Brand new Theo Parrish and it's a glorious return to the clickity, dusty, MPC jams we love from early Sound Signature!! Three tracks that find the Akai-sensei in moody Motor City mode; constructing those peppered drum sequences and drunkard pads to compliment a shadowy vocal track on "Weirdo" which comes in two mixes - one sans pads and with even more percussive goodness jammed in!

"Imaginary Thugfunk" sees our lovable Detroiter lay down on of his Sun Ra indebted, interstellar funk jams - with gently simmering MPC rhythms slowly thrusted into the heavens through a whole manner of jazzy meanderings and spiritual house atmospheres. A sound Theo singlehandedly invented himself, think "Sound Sculptures"-era and you'll be getting a twitchy for this frisky biscuit!

Limited copies, bound to fly out - you know what to do!



STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Detroit's finest back on his own imprint and with a decidedly retroist outlook. This sounds like some of the earliest Sound Signature gems; deep, moody, beatdown soul synonymous with the D.

TRACK LISTING

A1. Weirdo (Full Mix)
B1. Original Weirdo
B2. Imaginary Thugfunk

More new Sound Signature this week as we get a bumper back of goodies from our friends in the D. Jason Hogans is a new signing, rarely heard outside of the Motor City but concocting up a deliciously tasty brew of broken beat, instrumental hip-hop and summery soul.

A mini-LP of sorts, it cruises between skeletal MPC downbeat experiments into radiant, jazz-breaks and occasional flurries of deep house a la The Rotating Assembly.

This is seriously strong stuff from Sound Signature; and of course limited copies available. Don't miss out on this killer vibe from this new producer - seriously recommended! 


STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Sound Signature force our jaws to the floor by unveiling a mad good new artist from the D. Jason Hogans offers up something that tho typically Detroitian, also takes inspiration from Madlib's California-indebted soundscapes and London's broken beat edge. Mega!

Theo Parrish

Parallel Dimensions

    As the infamous start of year clear out continues, we've found some CD copies of this incredibly popular Theo Parrish album.

    Originally released in 2000 and containing seminal tracks like "Serengeti Echoes", "Brain" and "Summertime Is Here"; it finds our lovable Detroiter on his deep, soulful and spiritual side. Turn-of-the-millenium Sound Signature was a great period for the label and it's demonstrated with style and aplomb across these nine tasty tracks.

    Sealed and good as new, they've been criminally sat under a load of skwee mixtapes after a flurry of a reissue over a year ago.

    Another one of those, every home needs one, type albums, especially for fans of deep house and Detroit. Bonus chance for anyone that's missed it until now! 

    TRACK LISTING

    1. So Now What
    2. Anansies Dance
    3. Serengeti Echoes
    4. Reaction To Plastic
    5. Space Ghosts
    6. Summertime Is Here
    7. Brain
    8. Violet Green
    9. Nefarious Stranger

    Theo Parrish

    What You Wanna Ask For - Ft. Lori, SilentJay, Simon Marvin, Perrin Moss & Paul Bender

    Theo's back with a whole host of friends and a return to his slick, jazz-infected grooves . What we've heard of this new record sounds great, almost like he's revisiting "Summertime" era moods. With a lush and dreamy piano - organ combo, sumptuous strings and that iconic bass motif, we're in Theo Parrish dreamworld here!

    Get those orders in as copies are always in high demand!
