A Night Out In Amsterdam
(Luxury House)
Amsterdam – is there a city crazier, freer,
more laid-back than the Dutch capital?
Famous for its unique offerings that attract revellers
from all over the planet who enjoy the liberal spirit
and the great culture, Amsterdam has turned
into a number one party spot. Which, naturally,
makes it the ideal destination for Jérome,
the German house DJ who created his own series
of mixes aptly named after party hot spots,
inviting guest DJs to join him on his funky trip.
Two years ago, DJ Jérome, also known for his
Luxury House Mixes that stand for sophisticated
partying in a spirited way, got behind the
decks with Gianni N. to mix the compilation
“Eivissa pres. by Gianni N. und Jérome” which
perfectly captured the spirit of this sun-drenched
island in an authentic way.
Now, in 2007, he teams up with colleague
Vincent van Borgen, a local newcomer who knows
all the secret hotspots of his city, Amsterdam.
Together they musically guide the listener
through the pulsating party capital, spinning
fresh tracks by authentic artists like DJ Pippi,
Peter Presta, Yonderboi, Lenny Fontana,
Claude Monnet and Rene Breitbarth and even
one production by Jérome and his studio
friend Zamrate. The mix, a 74-minute homage
to crazy, vocal driven, slightly messy house nights
in one of the most breathtaking cities Europe has to offer
, is perfectly capturing the essence of its electric
party vibe which Jérome, a true DJ veteran
and party trooper, loves to spread wherever he plays.
Lifting up mood and spirit, the energetic yet
light-hearted “Amsterdam” mix is the perfect
companion for a trip to the Dam. Get ready to
get down to the take off between the worlds.

The Timewriter - Resensed Part One
Time to re-write history:
The house legend Jean F. Cochois a.k.a. The Timewriter,
possibly one of the most sought-after house artists the
German deephouse scene has brought forward in the
last ten years, has left his mark by producing four absolute
stunning long players,Letters from the Jester,
Jigsaw Pieces, Diary of A Lonely Sailor and Paintbox,
published between 1995 and 2006.
All of them of distinct
quality with tracks of such delicate,
honest beauty that they bring people to tears.
Songs that will never be forgotten as they, with their
timeless spirituality, would turn into genre classics.
To give his work a new context and to recall some
of The Timewriter’s finest moments, Plastic City label
gave his thumbs-up for “Resensed Part One”,
asking acclaimed musicians and newcomer producers
alike to give the already complete masterpieces the
Midas re-touch. The result, a first sequel of remixes
that are now published on Timewriter haven
Plastic City are at least as fascinating as thee eight
original tracks and will equally appeal to those
die-hard The Timewriter fans as well as those
who discover him for the very first time.
With great sensuality and a lot of joy, a whole
bunch of top class producers hailing from all
parts of the planet has re-rubbed eight carefully
selected tracks. They range from the breathtaking
“Here Comes The Sun”, one of the highlights of the
second album Jigsaw Pieces, to the amazing Paintbox
track “Room of A Million Rainbows” that only recently
has been released as a single, remixed by Athens
based producer Mikael Delta. The tracks were
reworked by, amongst others, Philadelphia’s finest
King Britt, the outstanding German house producer
Ian Pooley, one of the icons of the national house scene,
and exciting new faces and fresh talents such as
Jesse Somfay and Dave Spoon whose remix of
the dazzling anthem “Reachin’ Out” equally touches
heart and soul as well as from JFC´s labelmate and
friend Terry Lee Brown Junior. The styles range
from deep, electric mind trips to housey floor workouts.
The remixers, united by a heart-knowing instinct
to capture the very essence of every track and
shape it into something completely new and contemporary,
are adding new facets to an already accomplished sound:
Resensed Part One.

(just the kind of girl a realy love)hummmm...
Amerie - Take Control
The line on Amerie is she's a second-tier R&B diva,
yet somehow she always manages to put out singles
that Beyoncé would, and probably has, killed for.
"Take Control" is another one. While B was busy
sobbing in videos and making the campiest record since
the Hedwig soundtrack, Amerie went subtle.
Co-produced with Cee-Lo, the guitar riff admittedly
bites Cake, but by the time Amerie's tied-up-in-silk
singing darts around those licks, you hopefully
won't be thinking about bald white dudes, unless
that's your jam. Amerie isn't treading new ground
lyrically, but I don't think anyone expects that from her.
She's making a hot little 80s funk throwback concept
record, her voice and the production both feigning
the strain of submission for fun instead of
channeling neuroses through melisma.
no words ofr such girl....

this point in his history is goin to change.
Having been in the dance music scene for ages,
London born Dj and producer Frankie Valentine`s first
involvement in house music was in 1983, with Prelude
records "Music's Got Me" by Visual. When not only
the house music scene in England started to get some
kind of audience, but also Frankie himself.
In 1988, Frankie was asked to do illegal warehouse
parties with a few other Djs, where they went around playing
in warehouses up and down the country and then moving
on to Sunrise and other major events. That was when he
started to get regular work.He`s been deejaying for
over 20 years and has been producing for 11 years.
His hometown London has given him many opportunities to
show his range of different styles in dance music, from
uptempo to downtempo, making him one of the most
in demand Djs & producers from London.Since then,
Frankie has not only played most clubs up and down the U.K.,
but has also played at such exotic places like Japan,
Australia, Portugal, Italy, Spain, Iceland- to name a few.
As a Dj he has played in most major cities around the globe
at some time or another, there are only one or two places
where Frankie hasn`tplayed!Frankie has also managed to Dj,
on a regular basis in Germany, also at Berlin's famous club Tresor.
For a long time Frankie kept coming back to this legendary
venue where he was always given the possibility to build
up the night in his very own way by playing for long hours.
The clubbers were floating around in waves ofgrooves,
funky beats and some rare dance stuff Frankie has
collected over the years and liked bringing back to the people.
Frankie has had residencies in Londons famous Limelight Club,
in the West End, and also in the famous Park Club in
Kensington with Noel Watson and Matthew B.
(otherwise known as Bushwacka).
The three have also played at Londons Rotary Club.
The night had it`s main aspect on house & techy sounds
but always on the funky & groovy side of the music!

the first UK Dj at the world-famous Underground Resistance
Squad, from Detroit, on their first tour in Japan!Frankie has
supported major acts like: Electribe 101 (Japan Tour),
Nomad (Japan Tour), K-Klass (Swiss Tour) and Ultra Nate
(Germany Tour) with her number one hit “Free”.
Frankie Valentine is not a one hour or two hour Dj this
dj/producer isused to playing long hoursets.Now he is
about to release his long awaited debut album “Below the radar”

many different styles and grooves. Watch out for him
as he takes his next steps in his remarkable career!!!
