Forthcoming on Housetown Recordings, we have three veteran producers and DJs coming together for a three track release. All three are exceptional ambassadors of underground house music, each with multiple decades of pushing the sounds of the underground. With releases on multiple labels all over the globe and countless DJ bookings over the decades, these three powerhouses have come together to remix Paul Dynes latest work entitled Returning Home.
For the release, Paul Dyne brought the original to life with a classic piece of dance floor business. So we had to do it justice on the remix tip. Enter Andrew Macari, Label Boss of Greenhouse Recordings, and Alexander East founder of Planet East Recordings. 2 phenomenal producers and musicians with decades of releases under their belts.
The opening cut comes from Paul Dyne. A veteran of the Texas underground scene. He brings decades of Djing and production knowledge to the table. He was on a studio hiatus for a while, building his family and career. But he's back now, Just started his own label and returns to form here like he never left the dj booth/studio.
Paul starts us off with some nicely detailed percussion that mixes with ease, then develops a groove, layering the elements, a few stabs and pads then, wham, a thick, chuggin 'bassline drops in that just captivates the ear immediately. The low end rolls and chugs along beautifully, and you know your ears are in for a treat. From there the track continues to keep the feet moving and the vibes rocking with super slick production work; featuring beautifully layered pads, stabs, funky rhythms and a solid groove. Add in a beautiful vocal sample that just rings true to proper underground house music itself, it all rides nicely on Paul's signature infectious drum programming, and the result is a track made for djs, by djs, and absolutely built for the dancefloor.
First up on remix duty is English DJ-Producer Andrew Macari. A taste maker of Deep House & Jackin House as apart of Toka Project, Greenbay Jackers, Deep South Playaz & Guided Methods. He continues to define his career with a growing discography, packing superb turntable skills and running his well-established record label Greenhouse Recordings and more recent labels, Tastie Music, and Jack Locker. For his take, he has added his signature swing and jacking sounds to the track, keeping in line with the original, but with a more low slung swing and jackin 'vibe that is distinctly Andrews sound. The keys and melody shine thru beautifully in the remix, his bassline is all his and it has that nice bounce that makes ya wanna get down.
Also on remix duties we have Alexander East completing the project.
Born in Brooklyn, New York, Alexander East has been making music all his life. When he was young he taught himself how to play many different musical instruments and sing. His voice is one of the most recognized voices in house music due to his prolific output with some of the best producers in the game over the years. After spending his early years in the recording studio, he learned how to produce and engineer his own works. Alexander has now made a name for himself on a world wide scale with appearances on many respected record labels including his own Planet East Recordings. His voice is known the world over in house music circles, and he brings that world class sound to his remix.
Starting his off a little slower, a little more laid back. It comes in using some great shaker percussion that takes its time to lead you into the music, kinda takes ya on a stroll to a peaceful waterfall. It builds gently, gathering steam and energy and before long a full on groove has arrived in force and you are definitely heading to the dancefloor. For his bassline, he has steered into the more techy side of things, with a little afro soul flair in there as well. His engineering on the bassline is a more modern tech approach, with a more driving feel, a great bounce, and lays a solid foundation. The pieces come together seamlessly, and it bumps and shimmies and makes ya wanna move your feet. The swirling vocal has been used to create a beautiful atmosphere, swirling around up above, while he brings in the dusty keys and swingin hi-hats he is known for. Combine that with his rock solid musical ability, this track attains some solid techy vibes with a side of soulful house for flavor. Alexander's studio chops are on full display with his drums and song construction and energy. All three tracks have their own flavor and distinct vibe. Each made with a love for house music that runs deep in the veins of everyone involved. The passion shines through loud and clear with the latest offering from Housetown Recordings. Put it in your crate!
