Missed this 2015 release from Boston producer Renato P, on Jay Simon's label. Top of the morning lads

how do i keep missing amazing records

https://youtu.be/kuB6K9LTGgU

That Renato P is lush. Didn't think I'd ever need to hear another deep house track again but I was wrong!

its an unexpected detour!

This is the only Damon Lamar record I really click with, the way that bassline slides unnoticed into the box and slots home past the keeper, nothing grandiose but no one has seen those 3 points since

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bkjBIhZf2Q

I have never really checked out the Remote_ stuff other than the vertical cat split, but this has a nice subtle morning vibe

Jaco Pastorius jam, released in 93 but must have been recorded much earlier obviously! Not heard this record before (or any of his really)

i don't know about know jamo pastorious, how about some pastoral jams tho

from 93 though just got the reissue on groovin from milano

rainforest atmospheres! detroit keys! larry heard rhythms!

oh dear that's like a weird pumped up remaster

this mix sounds a bit more chill i think

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KA1wpSg_KIE

haha dang now i have to double check which one my reissue has on it

Faze 1 from 1994, on Gruvee. Never heard of artist or label before. Only a matter of time before a trumpet arrives, probably a tax write off

http://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=su0JlOTSTK8

who's that tying my shoelace

Must be the heat!

Grab a 'httpS' from the frozen food aisle at Asda and you're good to go iirc

Errr, wait no, doesn't work, for some reason it removes the s from https

HTML crew dropping science thanks lads

I'm on a roll lets try one more, Italian classic from Vienna its had a reissue

Off and Gone's first release, on Exist Dance - still finding gems on this label not heard before!

Terrence Parker mix of Index 968 - Secret Fantasy.

One of his best, only came across it a couple of weeks ago!

Man, saer, you would have had a great time in San Francisco in the nineties!

I hear the canals were genial and the chippy opened late?

I thought I had the good T-Polar record but it turns out there is another one, the first one, from 2002. Maybe there are more!

The Deviants, on Luxury Service from 1996. Its an obvious sample but I've forgotten what its from!

wrong year, 97!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=ehcuGmPW8eU

and mixes well with this from Dubtil (2016 is the past but I can't get a feel whether the recent-ish past belongs here or not!)

oh no not this again!

Came across this via the antique cash register collector's play-a-long a bongo session, never heard of this before - magic!

Other side of this isn't bad either

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScekZnovGMs

this has been on repeat and still sounds so fresh 25 years later:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZJfr0AWAlo

yeah i got mo'wax excursions 12 of that

so fresh, evergreen fresh, sounded good since the day it came out

remember when kdj dropped it on french radio? no?

https://youtu.be/iNLR-EMugb4

I don't but thanks for that link.

sounded good since the day it came out

exactly what I said about it elsewhere, recently. I have the excursions 12 too. I'd say that it seems that Pulsinger tracks are having a revival but that circumstantial evidence is based on my own flat.

Further evidence:

plus Dear Trevor, of course.

re: the KDJ set, does anyone know what the Geraldine Hunt sampling track ten minutes in is?

ha, the very one that Claire mixes into. Enjoying this.

Man.... this tune.... Man do I rate this tune.... Its like you wake up after a night out yeah.... And your memory is a bit foggy.... But you know you've danced the night away.... Like proper groovin.... And the ladies might have seen, might have danced with you.... But thats not important... The important part was the energy.... The beautiful, beautiful energy.... You roll over.... You check your phone.... No notifications, no worries.. You walk downstairs and your mate Kevin is cooking up some bacon.... Upon further inspection he is making eggs too.... "Oi geeza spare a strip of bacon?"..... Kev doesn't mind.... You've just scored yourself some bacon..... Great start to the day... You glance outside.... The sun is shining... Your little neoghbor Johno is kicking a ball about..... Pure bliss.... This tune is pure bliss.

you know, i feel like this tune maybe already got posted on this thread?
