Ya Dance So Sexy Bebe
New track from Hervé, under one of his (many) alternative names; Voodoo Chilli. Has a very Latin House feel to it, which is always a good thing in my eyes. Could listen to this on repeat all day.

The story behind this track is just amazing (read about it after the jump). All the remixes are out on Beatport/iTunes on August 30th. Can’t wait to hear the Riva Starr’s effort - sounds massive live.
Some tracks just never fade. When Curtis Jones (aka Cajmere, aka Green Velvet) dropped “Percolator” in 1992, few would expect this bouncy booty house number would survive past a few novelty plays that summer. 18 years later and the cut has thrived across the dance music spectrum—from Detroit techno parties and European raves to Chicago juke gigs and B’more blowouts. Back in 2003, Jones gave his classic hit a few remixes of his own. But 2010 marks the first time other producers have laied legitimate hands on the stems. So now there’s versions by Major Lazer, DJ Chuckie, Claude Vonstroke, Riva Starr, Bad Boy Bill, Mixin Marc, DJ Gantman and Cajmere himself.
Grabbed from URB.
51 minutes of deep/tech house, which shows exactly why they are the two of the strongest and most consistent genre’s around. Please enjoy.
P.S. That’s the beautiful Loukia Constantinou on the cover.

Title track from Lee Foss’ latest EP, U Got Me. Music doesn’t get much better than this.
All about the groove baby.
So yeah, I decided to this post tonight, because tomorrow is gonna be much busier I had originally planned. Above is the beach I will be spending the majority of my Holiday on, which means I won’t be blogging while I’m away. I’ve been holding most of these tracks back so that I could post them all together. If you have the time, then you should definitely check them all out.
While I’m here I would also like to say thank you to EVERYONE that has visited and supported the blog over the past few months. Never in my life did I expect to have nearly 12,000 views from over 2000 visitors. That’s just crazy.
Anyway, hit the jump for all the music.
Seeya in two weeks,
TC.
First up is a new track from (the beautiful) Michelle Owen, which is called Dee & Deaf. One of the funkiest tracks of 2010; she has created a sound that you don’t hear very often these days. I hope you can all guess which famous rapper/actor is on the vocals?
Secondly is my favourite of the 9 tracks. This is soulful house at its very best. The progression of the track is perfect and the use of the vocal from one of the greatest songs EVER simply make it one of the best tracks of the year. Producer goes by the name of Thyladomid and the track is entitled, The Voice.
“Birds flying high, you know how I feel”
Next up is ‘club banger’ from Matteo DiMarr. I’ve heard that this is getting played everywhere right now, and you can understand why. A very bass heavy progressive house track, which features a young man called Dashka who is rather good on the ol’ Saxaphone. Blower.
First remix in this post comes courtesy of my favourite DJ/House producer in the world, Mr. Jesse Rose. The track is called ‘Bit This Thin’ and is by Djedjotronic, who is singed to Boys Noize’s record label. Everything about this is spot on. Best remix from the EP that came out at the end of last month. Actually cannot wait to see Jesse at the end of August.
Second remix is by Huxley, and is of a track called ‘Gonna Be Alright’, which I used in my most recent mix. Not sure where the vocal is from, but it’s one of the best I’ve heard in a long time. Definitely a progression from Martin Dawson & Andre Crom’s original - funkier and much more enjoyable to listen to.
Here is a track from German producer Kabale Und Liebe, which features The Fog. Tech-House done right is the most exceptional sound in the world and this is the perfect example of that. Since You Looked Into My Eyes is something that I can see DJ’s playing A LOT over the next few months. Massive.
Two producers who have had a under-stated, yet superb 2010 are David Penn & Rober Gaez. This track, which is entitled ‘Sunshine People’, shows you what they are all about. Happy music, with a whole lot of groove, that your mum and dad will probably love too.
“Lets be happy”
The last remix is of Tom Demac’s ‘Crewcuts and Curls’ and comes courtesy of possibly the coolest man in the world; Jamie Jones. Since the release of his debut album, he has been rather quiet with his producing as of late, but he’s made up for this absolute JAM that is impossible to dislike. Guy is a genius.
Finally is probably the most beautiful of all the tracks I’ve posted. The production from Leif alone would have been sufficient, but with the stunning vocals of Donna Lea on top; this is just musical heaven. Priority is a special song and the perfect way to end this post.
Thanks for listening people.

Sexceptional new tech-house track from Jacuzzi Boys and Bastian Schuster.
P.S. Snog, Marry, Avoid?
This year, Oleg Poliakov has become one of my favourite House producers in the world. This tracks shows exactly why.
Incredible.
Attik’s remix of Cee Cee Cox’s beautiful deep house track, Something About Her. A hypnotising piano loop, along with unique vocals and a punchy bassline make this one of my favourite remixes for a long while.
Any EP that uses my favourite picture EVER as the cover is bound to be brilliant.
Use of the soothing vocal is exceptional. Perfect track for Summertime.
First up we have a spectacular Tech-House track from Paul C & Paolo Martini, which sums up everything I love about this genre. Progression of the track is second to none and the clever use of the vocal at the half way mark switches up the track beautifully. Could dance the night away to music like this.
Secondly is some new Afrojack, which features the wonderful Eva Simons. This isn’t really my kind of sound or ‘thing’ usually; however I have a feeling this is gonna be massive over Summer. Crazy track, which is entitled ‘Plug It In’.
Next up is a remix of Soul Clap’s new tune, Action Satisfaction, which is delivered by Lee Jones. Although I do love groove and vocals of the original; Jones’ remix pushes even further the boundaries of deepness established by the original track. Really sexy music.
Another track that I have been listening to a lot recently is one that probably doesn’t belong in this post. Even though I’m not a Swedish House Mafia fan at all, nobody can deny that they have absolutely smashed it with their new single, One. However; the Netsky remix blew me away more than all of the other versions on the EP. This guy has so much talent and has had a better year than most producers in any genre. Just a brilliant remix.
Finally is an AMAZING deep house track from two producers that I am not too familiar with if I’m totally honest (I know that one of them is German). Sasch BBC & Caspar have created the ultimate summer sound and I think it’s safe to say that this will be on repeat for quite a while. The track is called Camps Bay and it’s music that me, my mum, dad and sister will all enjoy. That’s a very rare trait for most electronic genres.
