NICK HOOK - 'BROTHERS & SISTERS'

TRACK:

BROTHERS & SISTERS (Original mix)

BROTHERS & SISTERS (Martin Sharp Unified Remix)

release date: 23-06-2008

NICK HOOK - 'BROTHERS & SISTERS' 1/ Nick's Come Together Mix 2/ Martin Sharp Family Remix 3/ Martin Sharp Unified Remix 4/ Anton Neumark Remix 5/ Alex Camel Remix 6/ Original Mix

This is Nick's 12th solo single and definitely one of his best.

Nick's last solo single on Jeepers! – 'The Funky Muzik' – topped the MOS Download electro chart and reached no.2 in the DJ Download chart. So we are expecting big things from this release, especially as it includes a top quality package of remixes.

Nick Hook supplies two mixes: the storming, funked-up, electro house Come Together Mix plus the deeper, more progressive Original Mix.

Nick's First Life production partner Martin Sharp turns in two superb and very different remixes: Martin Sharp's Family Remix is rocking, dubby, electro house, while Martin Sharp's Unified Remix is a beautifully produced, full-on, uplifting, progressive, hands-in-the-air mix.

Top Russian DJ / producer Anton Neumark supplies a big-room, awesome, underground monster of a mix in his own inimitable style, while fellow Russian producer Alex Camel goes for a more deep and housey mix that has class written all over it.

Nick Hook has been a house music DJ and producer since 1990 and has released more than 80 productions (including remixes) on labels including FFRR, Distinctive, Whoop!, React, Limbo, Baroque, Phonetic, DMC, Stress, Om, In Music, Wallop, Segment, Multiply... and many more.

Nick co-founded one of the early trailblazing UK progressive house music labels, the highly influential Om Records, in 1992. He was also co-promoter/resident DJ at two of London's most legendary progressive house clubs, Loosen Up and Whoop It Up!, in the 1990's, not to mention having DJ'd at many of the top clubs in the UK and all over Europe.

As well as Nick's many solo releases he has also recorded collaborations under various act names including First Life, Subterfuge, Casey Jones Effect, Pleasure Box and Soundsource. His remix credits include Alex Neri, The Grid, Gusto, Saint Ettienne and Adamski.

Nick is currently a resident DJ at the Ocean Rooms and Suga Qube clubs in Brighton, and he continues to play at clubs around the UK and Europe.

So it’s now Rhythm Punkz turn to let you know what they are all about, musically! They’re partner in crime, John Charles, a 28 year old with a big love affair with house music has seen his raw talent rub shoulders with the best; Erick Morillo, Steve Angello & James Zabiela to name a few. Besides the djing flair, he is also busy working on his own fully produced tracks and remixes going under his own name and the Tokyo Warriors pseudonym.

Devore Recordings know new hot artists for the future when they see them and already are signing their next few releases as they form part of the new breed of gunning djs and producers from the East of England, including John Charles, Jack Harham & Daysleepers, all of whom are part of the Norwich house mafia.

Both sets of artists are holding down a well supported radio show on www.futureradio.co.uk so keep an eye out and listen! The Onezero (aka Rhythm Punkz) remix of ‘Strasbourg’ is a catchy electronic house, long pads drifting in and out and a bumpy bassline that makes this a perfect track to switch the atmosphere on the dance floor! The ‘Strasbourg (Dtech darkville mix)’ is dark and deep as they get! The rugged tech groove throughout the track was made for the late late sets, keep your eyes closed and imagine yourself on the dance floor alone, get mesmerised by it! All together this is destined for great things so show your support! Bigg up Norwich!

THE PENELOPES - THE ARROGANCE OF SIMPLICITY

Mexican Independent Music guru Camilo Lara delivers two of the absolutehighlights of his stunning album Piñata.

El Microfono is a funny catchysong with a piano riff that keeps your head nodding at all times.Nickodemus took this and has delivered an absolute party number led byace rolling drums and groovy afrobeatnik guitar.

The kind of heavyhitter you would expect from Nicko's amazing NY party, Turntables on TheHudson.Para no vivir desesperado could be described as a killer Mariachi HipHop track. It blends a cumbia beat with some astonishing horns in theBanda Norteña style.

Fans of M.I.A and Diplo should check this one out.NSM...PSM (No somos machos pero somos muchos / we are not machos but weare many) is a turntablism combo from Mexico DF and who have delivered awicked remix.

Imagine Daft Punk drinking Tequila with De La Soul andPerez Prado. Not sure if this is an accurate way to describe it, butit's funny to imagine the DaftPunkers drinking Tequila shots with theirspace helmets on.

The package is completed by an outstanding remix byDiesler, delivering the goods from Brighton. Expect fat beats!

Kira Neris has been one of the most interesting things to come out from France lately. Their sound, connecting the dots between Jazz and all good things Detroit, have been championed by Gilles Peterson and the key Headz out there.

Lovemonk has released Behind Closed Doors in Spain, originally released by our friends at Futuristica for the rest of the world. And now this very limited transparent 12” vinyl contains two explosive and exclusive remixes. Panoptikum starts by remixing Season 9 Episode 12.

After the bomb they delivered with their remix of Schema’s The Invisible Session, they keep up their deep and groovy Detroit sound. This cut sounds like is gonna be big, so don't say we didn't tell. Pepe Link, the Balearic master, took Back To my House and brought back a slow fireburning track. Moving house for the most discerning dancefloor.

absolutely hypnotic.

A must have.
