FAITH (2X12)
2x12 Inch
05.10.09
>faith< is a breathtaking longplayer that is produced from the early points in my life where house music at the time between 1994-1998 was more open and free without styles clashing and everyones sound was being admired. the productions and concepts for this projects was created by...
many deeply-rooted house influences from blaze to larry heard
to early 1990 strictly rhythm housegrooves witth strong influences of jazz
to intelligent new jakbeat tracks with less noise clatter and more
soft-cushioned toned multi-melodies and vocals.
faith is a creation from all of my life experiences
also everyone s life in general.
the world we live in..
the struggles
death
life
parenthood
finance to survive
sharing
friendship/relationship
this is the story which unfolds thru emotional emancipation manifestion....
then the alternative thoughts....
beautiful
melodically high
strong
vital,
true,
natural,
incarnated ..
its more than a house album, its a complete story...
with jtc singing vocals. myself(traxx) singing vocals
and nancy fortune singing vocals on my album..

PROTOTYPE SUBSTANCE EP
12 Inch
10.03.09
new jakbeat tracks from chicago on the always limited and vinyl exclusive nation records. villan x/naughty wood/jonny quest - sikk truth is a heat of the moment track. created with pulsating novation tones and an early 80s keyboard with step style sequencing. naughty wood enters the dimension of neo futurism by reflecting the emotional state of the mind body continuum. james t cotton feat. rodger devine - the monolith immediately asserts its colossal melody and takes the listener through a multitude of polyphonic phases without departing from its underlying dark groove. not unlike the eerie monolith in 2001: a space odyssey, the voice of monolith is pervasive and urgent with its sharp articulation, pentatonic motifs and moto perpetuo arpeggios.

nation is back!! a double a side release by x2 (house not house) and xxart (the moment). its the usual suspects turning the knobs and pushing the faders again... (traxx, j.t.c. dmarc cantu) for some pure raw jacking house music (or jaking as they say). tracks inspired by the music box in chicago... the legendary place where all heads went back in the days. >the moment< is a simple track with an effective bassline and quick vocals... very playfull! >house not house< is a powerfull sci-fi trip with a robust acid bassline and a blasting ms20 and old schoolish keyboard strings. back to the basics.. back to the music that makes you jak. (dont sleep on this one... limited to 500 copies and no digital downloads!)
