Joined a new remix contest hosted by Carl Cox’s “Revolution at Space”, Hey records, Soundcloud and FOEM, here is my entry, there is no voting involved but plays and comments surely help.

Michel De Hey, the head honcho of Hey! records put together this contest with his own track “Curly Wurly”, the prizes are the release on the label and a soundcloud pro account… The deadline is September 15th so if you are a producer you may as well give it a shot, its free to join and remixes are always a good way to hone your skills.

I hope you like my remix, lets hope I win, I really want to be on Hey!, hey!

Title: Soul Digger EP
Artist: Phillip O.
Label: Sound Mass Records

Phillip O presents a two track EP on Istanbul’s Sound Mass Records. The A side features Soul Digger, a raw House music cut that can work to fill a floor or to cause some serious damage to it, up to the DJ. The B side, “I Don’t Know” is a deeper track that blurs the line between Deep and Minimal… A special work full of emotions…

With early support coming from Londonground, Hermanez, Alex Young, Sezer Uyzal, Darkrow, Electriksoul, Sergio Parrado and many more… -Me, writing in 3rd person.

I remember it was around 2004 while I was still working at a record store called Chopin Haguen Records in Bogota, when a Venezuelan client and friend introduced me to this whole ‘Micro House’ concept, it was the first time I heard the term and soon after he brought me a copy of Akufen’s fabric CD, and later got a chance to hear his own album and I was blown away by the aesthetics proposed by his style, sample based yet so futuristic and minimal and still maintaining the jacking and raw vibe of pure and proper house music.

The album that I heard was called “My Way” it’s from 2002 and I remember reading somewhere that he locked himself in a house incommunicado from the rest of the world except for a radio which he used for sampling and for a month or two and did the whole piece there. Just as it came it went and I haven’t heard much from Akufen or the style coined ‘Micro House’ since, up until recently in the early 2011 where the term has been popping up here and there and I think it would be interesting to hear more from this style in the future.

Reading Resident Advisor the other day I bumped into this recent DJ set by him, about 3 hours of great music, I wouldn’t know how to categorize it and I don’t mean to, the style has changed a lot since his album “My Way” and all I can say is I love it and wish the set was available for download!

Hi! I’m very proud to present my new collab EP with Nigel Bazeley, a great producer from the UK, it is out today on Dirty Deluxe Records, a quality label who has released material from great producers like Loko, Hector Couto, Mateo Dimarr, Kim Fai, among others… Here is the Press release from the label:

Welcoming two new bad boys to the crew, Phillip O & Nigel Bazeley bring La Tambora. An EP with plenty of Latin Afro influence, which is fitting as Phillip O hails from South America. Not so fitting with our mate from the UK, Nigel Bazeley, but no one really cares as this is one big premiere release on Dirty Deluxe Records. The title track La Tambora is a perfect arrangement of warm percussion, chanting vocals and smooth transitions. Aborigen on the b-side is a dirty groove that gets you moving right from the start. Haunting vox samples and ethnic wind instruments bring this masterpiece together with style. An EP that is guaranteed to rock today’s dancefloors.

With previous releases on Cr2 Records, Pura Music, Baroque and Catch22, Phillip O & Nigel Bazeley are a force to experience!

Supported by Ant Brooks, Danny Graham, That Kid Chris, Paul Hughes and ThreeSixty!

Buy on Beatport
