fresh 2016 repress !!! 1st release in a series of reissues from the moods & grooves catalogue!

the forever bob ep is a requiem to bob de rosa by his long time close friends and collaborators grant dell, terry francis, mark allister and faton dolaku. these recordings draw on fond memories of their time spent with a man who lived for underground dance music and is rightly regarded as one of its true originators.

the forth inline on giant is again from grant dell this time grant take us on a deep dive into the realms of a trippy moog lead madness, on � the way we feel � filtered out dub stabs evolve around a timothy leary inspired spoken word � dark heady madness.

after making a great impression with its first ep, giant records serves up a second hot helping of house music from boss man grant dell, complete with fresh remixes by scottish techno stalwarts silicone soul. dell, also known as chicago transit authority, has been doing his do for 25 years now. as a dj he is at home in clubs in ibiza and barcelona as well as around the rest of europe, and is someone who always prefers to push his own brand of widely infused and influenced music than his own profile. once again here he comes up trumps with the emotive, glowing house cut �in your mind�. with a neat bassline and mid tempo house drums, subtle but effective synth smears add warmth and colour to the groove, whilst soul fuelled vocals add a real sense of personality. this is sure to get people grooving at any hour and comes with grant�s own space echo remix. as the title suggests it�s a more dubby and reverb rich affair with cosmic signifiers and sci-fi vibes pervading from start to finish. silicone soul need little introduction having been at the heart of real deep house and techno for decades on the soma label. their first remix is a darkroom dub - named after their own label - and is a seductively slo-mo and lazily unfolding house cut with languid synths that really suck you in. their lush hypnohouse mix is then a twinkling, late night bit of melodically rich deep house with starry skies twinkling above sombre chords. this is a patiently served but hugely alluring ep that is stuffed with plenty of tender feeling. one again then, both grant and giant have come up with the goods.

gable & grant are joined by harlow in this next instalment of the diaries volumes. on the third release they explore more rolling, pacy grooves whilst still maintaining that familiar brand of melancholic, washed out nostalgia. the b side here is a proper floor burner with a choice vocal sample mixed in for good measure.

vinyl only release, ltd to 500 copies
i didnt mind what she called me, what anybody called me. but this was the room i had to live in. it was all i had in the way of a home. in it was everything that was mine, that had any association for me, any past, anything that took the place of a family. not much: a few books, pictures, radio, old letters, stuff like that. nothing. such as they were, they had all my memories and no one could disturb this private peace.

two deep jams with a dashing black & white mystique around them. check the b-side: late night club appeal! what it felt like to be so wanted, so adored. no one had ever felt like that about me. it was all so dramatic. always in the wee small hours when it seemed to me that the world was ours - that we were the world.

a hefty pounding bassline with seductive r&b vocal hook keeps the grooves steady while you get plenty of dells trademark dubby drops in to measure for the tech heads. flip it for the mighty dub version and there you have it.
