This was one of those tracks that everyone knew as “the siren track”, I loved this track..viva 1992. Deep Beats Vol 1
LaLuna – Come to me (instrumental dub)
Some more B-side business from a little known artist on Quark records produced by Eric Krupper. Not to be confused with the mid 90s La Luna who done the Ethics Ep (Bang to the beat of the drum etc), this track was put out on Quark in 1990, and boasts a lovely deep latin house [...]
Fingers Inc – Another Side
This album is essential listening, it is prime example of how timeless deep house can be. Fingers Inc was a Chicago House group that consisted of Larry Heard, Ron Wilson and Robert Owens. Their track “Can You feel it?” became a huge anthem during the summer of love of the late 1980′s and was responsible [...]
Yuki Suzuki – We Don’t Have much time
We now live in a world where music is now so accessible that the choice of dance music can be quite overwhelming. On the flipside to that in many cases the output can be underwhelming, and more time is spent looking for that particular sound, and just at the point you are going to throw [...]

This coming Saturday A Guy Called Gerald plays in Room 1 at Fabric, and has created a “snap shot” mix of whats to come on the Fabric Blog. Part of the current discussion going on in contemporary production circles is about what sets one track, or one artist, apart from the other in this modern [...]

Gemini 27 – Jump a little higher
Here is a nice deep house groove from 1991 on Nu Groove Records, I wonder if Nu Groove will spring back to life now the digital age is here. In recent years we have seen Strictly Rhythm, R&S all resurface, Nu Groove would just be the icing on the cake, especially a re-release of LB [...]

Mix Tape Favourites #5 DJ Jelly – Mellow Mix 1991
Another from the tape collection, from a DJ to our local scene in Farnham, Surrey who I have mentioned on a some other occasions on the blog. DJ Jelly (LimeLight, Rhythm Station, Sweat) was my main introduction to the DJ world and specifically the Technics SL1210. My brother was a lodger at his house, and [...]
