The Amsterdam All Stars release truly does catch the current spirit of house music from the Dutch capital. The project is curated by Rush Hour and compiles the latest output from Amsterdam based (or born) house producers. It paints a detailed picture of the nightlife away from the big arena’s led by super star performers. Rather, it zooms in on the music that gets played at a small, dark club in one of the city’s back streets.

The album includes contributions from long-time Rush Hour affiliates like Awanto3, San Proper and Tom Trago as well as music from extended family members such as Boris Werner, Dexter, Melon, Juju & Jordash, Newworldaquarium and Steve Rachmad. Newcomers like Maxi Mill and Simon Weiss and Young Marco show that the city keeps delivering new talent, accepting the torch wholeheartedly.

About one year ago Melon met two old friends from Amsterdam lying on the streets of Berlin who gave him an old fashion tape. Out of respect of his (now homeless junkies) friends he borrowed an old tape deck and gave it a listen. He really liked the track but unfortunately he never found his friends again when he went out looking for them. After playing it for months and getting massive feedback the decision has been made to put it out and complimented with two fantastic remixes by California house legend Doc Martin & newcomer Tom Ruijg from Amsterdam, it’s now available for everybody. P.S. guys I owe you a fix!

RATIO? strikes back again with a two-track-release by SAN PROPER this spring 2011. On side A, Proper whips up an enchanting vocal house-track entitled ‘SHOOK’ with a specific ‘Proper-feel’ of groovin’ synth-bass melodies, straight-up funkin’ house-beats and a message which invites you to shake your behind. Side B contains the track ‘BUCKLE UP & RIDE’, another instant dance-floor classic which will take us out for a spin around town as we’ll drive down to memory-lane to honour some of Chicago’s heritage; the lyrics warn you to fasten you seat-belt, the beats and bassline tell you “I-told-you-so”… It’s a simple tool of a track, though original and outstanding; beats, bass, vocals and a nasty Proper-attitude…

Shook – Mossa’s Brown Remix : The Canadian producer Mossa presents his powerful and extremely funkin’ “Brown”-remix. This mix slaps you on both cheeks with it’s percussive cuts, key-fiddles and throbbing grooves. A certified dance-floor anthem of a remix which will soon be hitting a theater near you… Shook – Kabale & Liebe’s Big Butt Remix : A sweet, subtle and sexy late-night-groovin’ remix by the Amsterdam-based producer Kabale und Liebe, where he invites us to follow his enormous behind to shake that moneymaker… A remix with the deep & intense monotome spanks Kabale und Liebe’s known for.

Tsuba welcomes Subb-An with “Off The Walls”, a slice of future Chicago house with jackin’ bassline, catchy vocal hook and trippy touches you would expect from one of this year’s rising stars. For the remix, the mighty Melon steps in with a tough house mix reminicent of an early Strictly Rhythm record – its a hot one!

In 2006, Melon started his Ratio?music with the first part of “Four Seasons” and now almost 5 years later it’s time to complete the series with the second and last part. Side A: “Fall” is the seasons that marks the transition from summer into winter, when the arrival of night becomes noticeably earlier. A time when nature blooms once again into beautiful red and brown colors before losing its fur and colder air penetrates our hemisphere. Side B: TJ Kong & Nuno Dos Santos (Compost) take us further into the night with an epic dance floor mix driven by a killer bassline and a storm of lucid skies. Side C: “Winter” is a transition into even darker and colder times, when days are at its shortest, accompanied with beautiful snowfall and warmth that winter also offers. While the sun is at its lowest position and blinds our eyes, we reach the longest night, a sign that warmer times are ahead. Side D: Although San Proper & Melon have been working together for years, this is San’s first delivery for Ratio?music. San takes us deep into a mid winter night and tells us that it’s never too hot or too cold to party!

The “Soft Rain” package is completed by remixes done by Trouw residents Melon and Patrice Bäumel. Melon turns the track into a muscular house monster while Bäumel delivers a shiny, hypnotic interpretation. André Obin himself slows things down and goes all shoegaze with his own epic Fascination Mix.

Melon’s original version of “Money” has been saved for his forthcoming debut album. In the meantime Sascha Dive (Deep Vibes Recordings) already delivered a 15 minutes long rework, that is a pure trip into deepness and can’t be kept a secret for the world much longer.
