Funky jacking house from Nonfiction, with remixes by Atnarko, YSE and Giano
Sandwiched inbetween San Diego and Los Angeles is Orange County, home to the club night Focus which is world renowned for attracting the leaders of the underground; Derrick Carter is a regular along with Doc Martin, Diz, DJ Sneak, DJ Heather and Ian Pooley. The man responsible for resident DJ duties at Focus is Lost My Dog’s latest signing Nonfiction, who delivers a funky, jacking houser ‘P Power’, which comes backed by remixes from Atnarko, YSE and Giano.
Always one to take the road less traveled, Nonfiction (real name Jose Tobar) plays by his own rules, mixing elements of house, tech, funk, hip hop, soul and electro. Having started out in the early days as a hip hop DJ, he grew tired of feeling like a human jukebox and switched full time to the carefree spirit of house and dance music that he had always had an affinity for. A self-confessed production geek, Nonfiction spends all his days and nights locked in his studio, which has so far led to two EPs working alongside respected vocalist E-Man (most famous for his vocal on Jon Cutlers classic ‘It’s Yours).
A tasty remix package of rapidly up and coming producers complements the original mix. Atnarko’s bass heavy productions have seen him release music on Robsoul, Tango, Lowdown and also on 2020 Vision under the name Formidable Force alongside Huggy. His remix of Daniel Kyo’s ‘Hypnotized’ on LMDX002 impressed us so much we couldn’t wait to get him involved again.
YSE (more widely known as one half of Rhythm Plate) is a firm favourite at Lost My Dog, so much so that we try not to let any other labels near him! His two EPs ‘Bounce Back’ and ‘Not Wot You Got’ have been superbly received and his remix of ‘P Power’ here only helps to cement his reputation as one of the brightest talents in UK deep house.
Finally, we’re back to California for a remix from Giano. Giano came to the attention of LMD after his excellent EP earlier in 2008 for Fred Everything’s Lazy Days label. His own impressive label Italiano Recordings and his close friendship with Nonfiction sealed the deal.
Jason Hodges: Lovin this release,nice and smooth with some bump!
Giom: I'm absolutely loving this EP! My 2 favourites are the Atnarko and YSE mixes, will play both of them for sure. One of my favourite EP from LMD so far.
Ross Couch: LMD bring a very nice selection of remixers to the table to work on an already solid original track and they are all playable. The YSE Re-Rub really stands out though, It starts off strongly and doesn't let up! Very enjoyable stuff, will be charting and supporting!
Massimo Dacosta: Really dig deep vibe of Atnarko and Giano remixes. Good stuff !
Pete Moss: lovin the atnarko mix!
