Up next on Quantize Recordings is the ‘made in Baltimore’ approved pairing of Ron Hall & Thommy Davis, for the huge ‘Fugue in Baltimore’, which originally featured on the WMC Sampler back in March. Made with the dancefloor firmly in mind, the track is bursting with deep drums, killer percussion and a string solo to really fire up any dancefloor crowd right across the spectrum of house music. Hooky and downright infectious, this is one of those tracks that really leaves an impression – you’ll be humming the riff for days, trust us we’ve experienced it first hand! We’ve gone all out on the remix front once more with 2 massive reworks from the mighty Karizma in his Kaytronix guise, and close friend of the label N’Dinga Gaba once again shows why he’s one of the hottest talents on the globe right now! Added with our own DJ Spen, Thommy Davis & Gary Hudgins this all makes up for one serious slice of goodness… don’t forget to pack this in your Ibiza suitcase – it’s this seasons must have!

Italian DJ & Producer Mark Di Meo makes his Quantize debut alongside vocalist Nickson with Let it Be Love, a sumptuous slice of soulful goodness busting with warm vocals, slick guitar licks & bubbly bass. Already a respected producer following his recent work for labels such as Soundmen on Wax, Spirit Sound and Gotta Keep Faith – Mark is quickly gaining quite a following…. and it’s easy to see why! Alongside the Original, the single is given the full Quantize remix treatment with Spen, Irvin Madden & Thommy Davis turning in 2 punchy remixes, keeping all the essence of the original but adding in some Baltimore heat! The ever impressive N’Dinga Gaba takes things a little deeper in the mix with a real soothing organic sounding vibe – typically brilliant. The release moves European for mixes 4 & 5 with Greece’s Chris IDH & Italian trio Homeplates all adding a different flavour to the track, and making the decision of which mix to play that little bit harder!

Quantize keep bringing the heat…. next up on the label is the debut from the super-talented Dana Weaver! We’ve been keeping this one quiet for the past couple of months – yet the requests have been flooding in since it hit our soundcloud pages a few weeks back, we certainly love a good vocal track here – and Heavenly is exactly that! We’re all certain that Dana is set for big things in the industry, involved within gospel & soul circles from an early age, her debut for Quantize is sure to turn heads & make people sit up and take notice… Remember where you heard the name! Alongside the mighty Spen & Gary Hudgins versions, we’ve pulled out all the stops on the remix front – the one and only Karizma drops by with a lush disco-licked affair, choppy & infectious this is a sure fire winner on the dancefloor, something which was highlighted only days ago at the recent WMC, and close label friend N’Dinga Gaba & Jon Vance take the vibe a little deeper, with a cool late night groove in both vocal & instrumental versions.

The Muthaload Reloaded

Originally released last year, the debut artist album from The MuthaFunkaz proved to be an instant success. Known around the world for their fusion of jazz, gospel, funk, soul & house music, The MuthaFunkaz have constantly been pioneering their sound and of course responsible alongside Ron Hall for the seminal soul classic The Way You Love Me, which rightly went on to become on of the biggest tracks of its time.

Fast forward 12 months, and the MuthaLode album has been given a completely new lease of life – now comprising of a collection of stunning remixes from some of house musics biggest players, the original MF tracks have been given reworks by Kenny Dope, Atjazz, Karizma, Gramophonedzie, Dimitri from Paris & Joey Negro, and also features the brand new ‘I Do Love You (alliwannado)’ single – classic MuthaFunkaz at their very best!
