ltd 2012 repress !! back to jack - this killer production combo come with more chicago trax.... fingers-tip! after their debut success >inside out<, which was charted and licensed world wide, earlier this year, kink & neville watson are back big time! they rock our world with their vintage chicago sound, like its summer of love all over again. although they have the old skool sound going, they easily keep up with todays productions standards. it will rock any system. raw and dirty house music. when music is this good, let there be renaissance!

fully koded chicagoians traxx and beau wanzer team up for another mutant beat dance release. together they have produced arguably the best 80s chicago house record not made in the 80s. the mutants call it jakbeat, inspired by the early days of house music. tip!!! let me go is as intense and rhythmically inclined as they come. naughty woods sparse vocals cry desperation, almost nearing insanity, which makes up for a pressure cooker like warehouse anthem. rottonfunk is another intense work out which has a killer groove and makes us wander off to the promised land (wherever that is). its delightful to hear that chicago house music this good still gets made. surely when it was released way back when, it would fetch top dollars on the interweb. authentic stuff!

jon dasilva is one of the original hacienda (the manchester club) djs and was behind the decks when house exploded in the uk during the summer of love in 1988 as well as being a tour dj for new order and the haciendas usa tour in 1990. since then he has been credited for mentoring djs such as sasha and been an inspiration to laurent garnier a.o. he has also got a string of releases under his belt for labels such as soma, deconstruction, robs records and better days. check! on his debut release he teams up with vocalist donald waugh and the return to the roots of house music with >love is all we need<. together they have created a house classic that never was, reminiscent of an essential dj international release or alike. comes as full vocal and dubbed out bootleg mix. on the flip we find brailles on remix duties. fresh from his massive >the year 3000< on our direct current series, braille pushes >love is all we need< into the next century. classic feel good stuff. this is how we like our vocal house!

ranging from melodic to a bit heavier work this tevo album is an ideal little update to your house collection. lots of chicago and a well sized portion of acid in it!

after the emotive release of rick howard, its time for hhyr to step it up a notch again with fellow chicagoian ricardo miranda, who already gave us >black acid< last year and also was featured on rick wilhites >vibes< compilation. <br (/>>floorwax< urges us to do the damn thing, assuming that he leaves us no choice but to slam dance to this hypnotic acid work out, which reminds us slighly of earlier dj funk material. >redline< further explores the boundaries of acid house originale. it starts out with just drums and a pulsating acid line, but halfway through a utopian string line eases in and shows us the way to the promised land. keep your heads up and dance to the music.
classic chicago house!

this is pure underground house music with detroit and chicago flavours!! tip !

almost two years after their last release, kink & neville watson are finally back with their 3rd single! again they deliver two winning tracks that combine the best elements of chicago house (for the body) and detroit techno (for the soul), which has become their sound signature. where >metropole< will cause ruckus on the dance floor at peak time moments, >the long wait< is a deeper affair perfect for late/after hours. raw and dirty house music. when music is this good, let there be renaissance!

his name gives away the fact that he is italian, otherwise you’d be forgiven for thinking a chicago native produced these tracks. napoletano already spoiled us with his releases on labels like mathematics and yore, now he goes back to basics for hhyr. three tracks that show the original spirit of raw, emotive, jacking music. one word: madness

special release alert! gene hooked us up with three tracks he producedd as a teenager, together with ron hardy. rons untimely death in 1991 prevented the tracks from be released at the time. these tracks were made during various sessions at genes studio, when ron had time in between his gigs. raw, original chicago house music from the late 80s! comes with special artwork featuring an original late 80s flyer

we welcome chicago house veteran gene hunt to hhyr. with this great 4 track ep gene shows us he still has the touch. this ep includes three deep, yet raw tracks somewhere between jacking chicago and classic detroit. it reminds us of tracks by boo williams, glenn underground etc. special mention goes out to >i know you care<, which is a lush disco track.. elevating stuff! welcome back gene

yes! we are going back to the roots again! chicago producer ricardo miranda kicks it raw with this acid burner. this steady club track already caught the ears of rick wilhite, who will include ricardo miranda in his upcoming vibes compilation album. on the b-side we have chicago head legowelt doing a remix, which is a tribute to the late 80s chicago era. deep and moody. essential house stuff!

tevo howard is the new unsung hero of chicago house music! after his debut 12 for hhyr move, tevo now delivers a six track double pack. all six tracks are warm, emotional, raw, hypnotic, long and deep tracks and take us back to the original vibe of chicago house music. though his tracks are heavily inspired on the early days, his productions sound very crisp and ‘today. we love tevo!

after releasing tevo howards >move< hhyr is back with more music from the howard family. this release sees tevo producing his father rick howard again. after working together on the first beautiful granville release about fourteen / without your love, the duo returns with the >i wont lay back<. vocal chicago house just as we llike it deep and raw! i wont lay back is possibly the best track they have worked on so far. comes as original and underground mix. the b-side features a remix of about fourteen. classic stuff! raw and dirty house music. when music is this good, let there be renaissance! our house is your rush!

mark grusane and mike cole are better known as the owners of mr peabodys records (store) in chicago. this track was taken from the primitive house trax cd they put out in small numbers. this early nineties track very much reminds us of the true chicago house sound… raw and sweaty! this will be available as a special limited edition.

snuff crew (playhouse / nature) sign up for the third release on hhyr. again in best tradition they come up with two old skool inspired chicago house tracks. where feel inside is a deeper journey, slam it is a straight up jacking affair. hhyr natives kink & neville watson remix feel inside into a dance floor monster... bass!
