This release has had my attention for a while now. Jordan Peak, along with Saved Records have made something to bounce to with this EP. Every beat here has the right amount of garage/jackin swing with a party tech house vibe. Top notch.

Brawther - Remixes [BL13-BF01]
Usually i don't go for one track on an EP, but this one HAS to be mentioned. It seems like anything with the label My Love Is Underground affixed to it is turning gold.
While this release is not released on their label (it's on Balance Alliance France), the track "GSM's Life (MLIU Dub)" has the MLIU acronym and so it's worth to mention it. A smasher of a tune. **UPDATE** was able to get a copy of it on Juno. boy those guys really come through! =D
If you see a copy, GET IT! worth the money, as not only is this track a total garage choon, but the rest of the songs hold up quite well as deep house gems.

Tony Lionni - Lost Souls EP [KCTDL1123]
Madhouse Records is back with another EP. This time it's producer Tony Lionni who is at the helms of the buttons and manufactures a Techno fused Deep House 4 track wax worthy of being placed in between releases of such iconic label.
Be sure to check out Traxsource for the release. For now you can get your fix (in many ways) by listening to the full streams at Soundcloud. Release date on this is: April 25, 2011

Kerri Chandler - The Remixes [CHAMPDL1040]
This is a HUGE release for all the US Garage fans, and most important Kerri Chandler Madhouse nutters (like me).
Champion Records just released a digital compilation of Kerri's remixes from his entire career. What makes this such a special release is that it contains some white label tracks that have never before been available in digital format. In their own words:
Champion Records proudly presents a very special collection of remixes by the legendary Kerri Chandler. We’ve gone back through the archives and collated all the remixes the Madhouse main man has done throughout our 30 year history, and includes his versions of rare and lost tracks as well as club classics. Released by: Champion Records Ltd
Release date: Apr 11, 2011
Kerri Chandler: The Remixes by championrecords
I want to publicly thank Champion Records for making the streams on Soundcloud as full tracks... for obvious reasons, amirite pirates?
Now if you want to buy these beautiful tracks, you can head over to Traxsource and get the promo copies: Kerri Chandler: The Remixes [CHAMPDL1040]

Many of the tracks included have previously only been released on DJ-only white label promo vinyl and never commercially released on any format (see Kristine W’s “Don’t Wanna Think”), while others are included for their sheer classic status (Robin S, Sandy B, Kristine W Remixes for example). Over 70% of the tracks here have never been released digitally before now.

My Love Is Underground
Not been here for a while, because well just didn't feel like it. Many things have happened since my last post. I'm no longer in charge of Dahousehead.org as it was too much for me to handle. Didn't think being an admin and owner would be too much to deal with, but it was. People online can behave worse than kids..
Anyway, i'm excited about this entry because i get to talk about a record label that has got my full undivided attention. The Parisian record label (and i mean record as they are STRICTLY vinyl) 'My Love Is Underground' has for the past few months been putting out a rebirth of the 'classic' NJ/NY Garage House sound. By this i mean that early 90's House sound hammered by the likes of Tony Humphries at the Zanzibar, etc. It gives me so much joy to know that this sound has been brought back from the underground to resurface in no other than France. (can a mid-nineties French House Golden Era be back again?)
When i heard of the first 2 releases i was blown away, even more so when i found out that the artist that made the second release, Paris Underground Trax was actually Izmo, from the much celebrated 'Where Is Eddie? EP' on 9Ts Records. I immediately sought out my favorite place to shop online, Juno, and bought their latest release: Jerzzey Boy's Lost Cuts Pt.1
The next 2 releases seem to follow on the underground vibe: Kool Vibe - Catchin' The Vibe E.P. MLIU04 by Underground Paris
MLIU06 Inner Sense - The Second Vibe E.P. by Underground Paris
I wonder however where is MLIU05? The Facebook page shows a link labeled as "Kool Vibe EP MLIU05", but that redirects to the Kool Vibe - Catchin' The Vibe E.P., which is labeled on the Soundcloud page as the 4th release (MLIU04). Hope this gets cleared up. Until then, i plan to get the next 2 releases and if the forthcoming releases are as great as these, then im sold until they make no more (which i hope never happens).
***UPDATE*** MLIU05 will be the never to be repressed, 7'' exclusive that will be given out at the label's first night in London on May 13th. Quoted from their Soundcloud:
