full moon music from dele sosimi and medlar.

remixes from danvers, etherwood and lavan. as bottom end provider for cinematic orchestra and paper tiger, hunrosa (aka sam vicary) already has something of a pedigree for a man of such tender years. his music glides effortlessly between bonobo at his most sonorous, jon hopkins at his most ethereal and flying lotus at his most freaky. currently based in manchester, his music captures the wild organic senses of his cornish childhood, anchoring it with a darker 2am undercurrent.

first ever vinyl reissue of the 1967 debut album from wynder k. frog. limited edition of 500 copies only with remastered sound and a bonus track not on the original lp.

remixes from crazy p, i gemin and envee. the vinyl release includes a download code.

sam vicary a.k.a hunrosa (meaning “to dream”) is an electronic music producer capturing the wild organic senses of his childhood and anchoring it with a darker 2am undercurrent. based in manchester, he is principally a bassist and currently a member of the cinematic orchestra, paper tiger and the dominic j marshall trio, as well as performing with manu delago, imogen heap, matthew halsall, anil sebastian and stuart macallum. his latest offering “ransome” is a heavily rhythmic journey, full of textured hand percussion and soaring strings, accompanied by the beautifully melodic vocals of alice higgins drifting overhead. the clap clap remix sees the black acre mainstay exploring expansive territories, polyrhythmic hand percussion and textured electronica perfectly intertwine, drenched in dub ambience, heightened by scattered arpeggios and swirling synths. the music is inspired by a coastal upbringing, represented in the music via field recordings, as well as being aided by visual stimulus throughout the writing process.

wah wah 45s will release orange whip, the new album by their latest signing, honeyfeet. the outfit, who have received praise from the likes of the guardian, have also set festivals alight up and down the country with their unique melange of sounds. for the last couple of years the honeyfeet (who name from a line in the blues brothers film) have been a conduit for the ideas and expressions of an exotic mixture of manchester based musicians. this genre-defying band incorporate styles including jazz, folk and hip hop into their music. someone once called it folk-hop and barrelhouse-pop, and that’s just vague enough to make sense.

wah wah 45s are very proud to announce their first foray into the format of the future-retro fan – the cassette. and who better to deliver our debut release on this cult medium, than our very own electronic beat makers and hip hop nerds, paper tiger. over the last four years, the leeds and london based crew have been quietly pasting together some of the more interesting and subversive off-cuts and live interludes that were recorded around their two lp releases.

this autumn, wah wah 45s are very proud to present their latest signing, an outfit who ve garnered huge praise from jools holland, are darlings of the guardian s music reviews pages, and have set festivals alight up and down the country with their unique melange of sounds. for a good few years, honeyfeet has been a conduit for the ideas and expressions of an exotic mixture of manchester based musicians. jazz? yes, some of that! folk? stick that in there! hip-hop? i thought you d never ask! someone once called it folk-hop and barrelhouse-pop, and that s just vague enough to make sense. it helps that they are fronted by ríoghnach connolly, real world s newest signing and -a remarkable singer and flautist who can ease from irish traditional influences to soul- (the guardian). this extraordinary band s debut single for wah wah 45s, sinner, was originally affectionately known as boingy squelch, after the unconventional sounds trombonist biff roxby used in his early demos. ríoghnach conveys the story of a woman who never intends on staying at home -chained to the sink- - -i may be a sinner, but i m not a slave-. in that way, the song is a rejection of outdated, traditional roles. since their previous album, 2013 s it s a good job i love you, keyboardist john ellis jumped on board as full-time member, bringing his unique musical presence. this enabled the development of a more texturally adventurous style, as witnessed with the dual atonal solo between himself and guitarist ellis davies on sinner. similarly, for their next lp, orange whip, engineer, bassist and spiritual guide lorien edwards makes his honeyfeet recording debut, so completing the -kitchen- of this very special band. sinner is released on limited 7- vinyl (100 copies only!) on october 20th and comes complete with a woozy, low slung club-friendly mix from former innocent sorcerer, polish dj and producer envee. the album, orange whip, will be released on wah wah 45s in the summer of 2018.

wah wah 45s are proud to present the first release from afro-dub stalwarts and brand new signings, soothsayers. having been fans of this influential south london based outfit for the best part of two decades now, its come as a great thrill to finally, officially welcome them to the fold.

dele sosimis album you no fit touch am was released in 2015 to much universal acclaim. a perfect document of the lessons the keyboard master and vocalist learned in fela kuti s ranks during the 70s and 80s, but brought firmly up-to-date and with contemporary social comment as vital to the afrobeat genre as any rhythm or instrument. in 2016, to take that forward thinking even further, wah wah 45s commissioned four huge remixes from a quartet of the uk s most interesting new production names. that was just part one of the story though this year the label can reveal the final four remixes to be taken from this hugely popular and influential project.

wah wah 45s are proud to present the hugely anticipated new album from arguably the uk s finest dub and reggae outfit, resonators. after a four year hiatus mostly spent tirelessly performing headline shows and festivals across the uk and europe, as well as recording a plethora of new music this almost peerless brighton-based collective are ready to unleash their new material to an eager public in the shape of their third album, imaginary people.

wah wah 45s summer of dub gets into full swing with this foot-friendly12-inch package from the gene dudley group, remixed by a trio of our favourite producers on the planet.

wah wah 45s return to the 12- format to bring you three incredible re-works from french disco don the reflex, for our very own legendary canadian/haitian keyboard wiz henri-pierre noel. funky spider dance is a percussion heavy bomb filled to the brim with henri s soaring piano licks and infectious female vocal hooks. the reflex has taken what was already a sure-fire club favourite, and created something of a dance floor destroyer. his rework of a fifth of beethoven takes its time to build into another heavy hitter. as the beats make way for henri s deft keyboard flourishes, the recognition of this cover of the walter murphy classic (taken from the saturday night fever soundtrack) begins to dawn - and as it does, it s clear that once again the dream team of hpn and the reflex have worked their magic! last, but certainly not least, the reflex s revision of back home..., sweet home is a modern island funk masterpiece with organ and tropical guitar riffs making way for sunny brass stabs all underpinned by foot friendly beats. the original versions of funky spider dance and back home..., sweet home can be found on henri s one more step lp, and his take of a fifth of beethoven was recently available on 7-inches of wax - all on wah wah 45s of course. the reflex revisions all appear here together on vinyl, in fact anywhere, for the very first time!

you no fit touch am has been universally received with open arms. a perfect document of the lessons dele learned in fela kutis ranks during the 70s and 80s, but brought firmly up-to-date and with contemporary social comment as vital to the afrobeat genre as any rhythm or instrument. to take that forward thinking even further wah wah 45s commissioned four huge remixes from some of the uks most interesting new production names.
radio support from lauren laverne, guy garvey and huey morgan on bbc radio 6 music, patrick forge, kev beadle, bob jones and many more worldwide.

fuelled by a rediscovery of the music and artists that originally inspired their formation, the four walls of their studio were ablaze with a soundtrack of bill withers, isaac hayes and the isley brothers throughout the songwriting process for their new album. from the swagger of symphonic opener wanderlust to heartfelt ballad lose that way to the thunderous blues of the closing title track, the milks confidence in these songs and their execution is clearly audible. captured in a tireless outburst of creativity at the end of 2014, favourite worry is the milk at their soulful, honest and engaging best.

nice price deal !!! with support from djs as diverse as david rodigan and mark lamarr, plus support slots over the last twelve months for fat freddys drop and the selecter, brighton dub outfit resonators are starting to cause a real storm both in the reggae community and beyond.
